Sadly, we’re going to see Israel unchained under Trump. The Biden administration would have been on the phone first thing, pressuring them to ease up. The Trump administration will be on the phone taking orders for missiles.
This is a complex situation and there’s plenty of fault to pass around to all the major geopolitical players involved, but Trump is going to simplify this into “Israel good” “Palestine die.”
Tue Biden administranion went onto the phone after each Israeli massacre, reassuring them that they have the full suppprt of the US, but that they need to pretend a bit otherwise, so the public outrage in the US isnt too bad.
The Biden administration, and pretty much every US administration’s stance on the Israel-Palestine issue leaves a lot to be desired. But Trump is absolutely going to drop the bar and lots of Palestinians are going to pay the price for that.
As bad as things were under Biden, that administration always wanted to avoid high body counts. The Trump administration will look at high body counts and then attaboy Bibi.
Roughly 50,000 Gazans died during the last phase of the war. That is an absolute tragedy, but the Trump administration could see that number grow by multiples and they’ll probably view it as a good thing.
We traded a wolf for a rabid lion and that is going to have consequences.
The bar was already dropped, stop pretending a murderer is better than the other.
Huh. Took longer than I expected.
genocide, call it what it is
232 people killed so far. Agent Orange is taking up the mantle.
Edit 410+!!!
The Israeli military said on Telegram that it was conducting “extensive strikes on terror targets” belonging to Hamas.
(Emphasis mine)
Note they didn’t say strikes on terrorists. On terror targets. Did the mask just slip a little?
Unfortunately no; this is normal military lingo.
Umm, I don’t believe it has been until rather recently, if you look at it. Besides, I’m just saying maybe, just maybe, they choose this particular lingo precisely because that’s the way it sounds “out of context.”
However, there’s no way of really knowing what goes on in the minds of literal mass murderers (and whether Zionist consider these murders justified or not is actually irrelevant). In fact, I probably do not want to know. The defining characteristic of sociopathic behavior is the complete absence of empathy. They learn to pretend real well, sure, but a true sociopath just does not experience it. I don’t want to understand how that happens, because I am not willing to risk experiencing it myself. Cause how do you return from that? Like, …ever?
Maybe they meant to say “terrorised targets”?
Targets of terror. Like, literally by the genociders’ own words. And I’m not even twisting their meaning.
It is almost like they don’t actually want peace and the ceasefire is just a way to plan their next attacks.
So Trump didn’t achieve peace in the middle east? :-o
“At least 404 Palestinians have been killed and 562 wounded”
What an absolute surprise.
Meanwhile, NYT: Israel does large scale attack on Gaza. Will the ceasefire hold?
NYT is a disgusting organisation. History will not be kind to them.
