The Knesset just voted themselves a nice six week vacation. They don't give a shit. If Bibi goes they'll find another main man. They have plenty of genocidal nutbars to pick from in their ranks.

Right? People who think a person like Bibi with his ideological bent just exist in a vacuum and it's delusionally macabre. Inertia fucking happens.

Bibi is a lynchpin that holds up a coalition of actual fascists. Those fascists have supporters(including in the IDF), but not a majority. Breaking the back of that coalition and facilitating the fall of Bibi's government would result in positive change for the entire situation.

The fact that Bibi will go to jail if he loses that coalition due to corruption charges is what makes Biden's softball moves so frustrating for me.

Bibi, like Trump, is a symptom of the pathogen. We will need to work harder than this to cut the head off such a snake. Jail for either is positive, yes. But it's more like Tylenol for a rattlesnake bite than an actual anti venom.

It wasn't Bibi doing a festival with sugar cotton and games to block the food aid, it was Israel citizens.

Forty-seven percent of Israeli Jews said in a poll conducted [in October 2023] that Israel should “not at all” consider the “suffering of the civilian Palestinian population in Gaza” in the next phase of fighting.
