Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Netanyahu is every terrible Jewish stereotype wrapped in flesh. As a Jew, I abhor him. I would hate him if I weren't a Jew, too, but his attempt to represent me and mine with his bloody hands earns him extra spite.
I hope Gantz's visit further empowers those Israelis who are against Netanyahu and his genocidal agenda. Bibi needs to be gone.
This is part of the opening moves by Biden for a two state solution.
Should put some hustle under that two state solution. Pretty soon one state will just be a genocide memorial in a dirt lot surrounded by Israeli settlements.
Don't bank on it. The blocks for a two state solution have been in place for decades. Read "100 Year War on Palestine." It'll fuck you up.
It seems like a classic political triangulation. On one end he's shown to allies of the US that they will stand with their partners (soft power). In this case it involves participating in genocide. The pivot comes when said ally shows that their intentions are not in line with what the global community considers defendable. Then both sides are covered. It's slimy and immoral but I don't think people consider how important soft power is on a state level.
What do you think about a 3 state solution with one for each side of the conflict plus a federal entity protecting and defending both? If you ask me, capping any solution at two states merely perpetuate apartheid conditions.
Taking inspiration from the American system... Don't Jews and Muslims believe in the same abrahamic God?
And both think their same god gave them the same land and the right to kill anyone else who lives there.
So fucking what, write them a first amendment and then beep beep freedom baby
It has never been about racial/religious bigotry. Some of us sincerely don't like people who act like fucking cunts as though it was their calling in life. That prick Netanyahu fits squarely in that box for me. I don't give a shit what his beliefs or ethnicity happen to be, he is an evil, despotic, freak who needs to be punished for his crimes against humanity. I feel the same way about Dick Cheney, just as an example.
