So Israel is suddenly ready and willing to discuss peace terms but that gosh darn rascal trump is up to his ol’ mischief and is rallying against it because it’s going to make Kamala look too good?

I don’t buy it.

The Democrats hands are tied, they have to approve the next $2 trillion dollars arms sale of Raytheon knife missiles with child tracking enabled.

Yeah as if israel was ever going to agree to anything that doesn't leave a backdoor open to restarting the war in 6 weeks after the hostages are returned jagoff

I'm honestly shocked the Zionists haven't already inadvertently killed all the hostages.

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 32 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

inadvertently

If the former hostages keep saying good things about Khamas, they may start doing it intentionally

Even that one hostage that had bad things to say about Khamas was coming up with weird excuses for why she wasn't SAed and even went out of her way to undress herself in front of the Khamas guard because she knew it would make him uncomfortable (and it did, so he left)

The Hannibal Directive never ended, IOF have been killing the hostages intentionally the whole time

That was such a bizarre interview lmao

Holy shit, I did not hear about this but wow that sounds hilarious.

He probably thought she was being such a creepy, weird ass Zionist.

If I recall correctly her name is Mia Shem; unsurprisingly she's also the 'every Gazan is guilty' type person, and I'm not sure but I think she was also saying this to include children as well. I've seen zionists post her 'every Gazan is guilty' quote in their twitter bios, bizarrely (I say sarcastically) not including quotes by any of the other hostages who actually said they weren't harmed by Khamas.

inadvertently killed all the hostages.

Just most of them! it-is-known

i completely believe this, Nixon and Reagan pulled stunts like that but in this case Netanyahu might've just needed to reassure Donnie that he wasn't going to do that anyway. Or threaten Donnie into promising more aid lol

While it is in character for Trump/the republicans to try to stall peace talks so they can get a win (Nixon in Vietnam, Reagan with the Iranian hostage crisis), I kinda doubt they'd be able to stop Israel's genocide (not that they want to).

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

Meanwhile, the Harris campaign "we're stalling peace talks because it might help trump win"

[–] HelluvaBottomCarter@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

We would like to have peace talks but some guy has a phone so we can't. Sorry.

[–] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And what does trump have to offer bibi in this hypothetical phone call as leverage for this delay? I'm trying to debunk this claim but it's so stupid ive restarted twice, unable to decide where to begin. Its just too damn dumb

[–] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 3 weeks ago

That he will fulfill the basic premise of American presidential elections of being more genocidal than his opponent.

[–] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 17 points 3 weeks ago

I 100% believe trump did this but also that it doesn't matter because there was never going to be a deal

Bibi would probably do that, knowing full well he wouldn't do a deal under Trump either. He doesn't want a ceasefire, but I could see him doing this just to fuck with people.

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 11 points 3 weeks ago

You might need to have your BS meter serviced.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

That shit did happen to Jimmy Carter, where the alphabet backrooms really wanted freedom-and-democracy and got what they paid for by delaying a hostage deal.

[–] daniyeg@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

i mean it's probably true, and the tweet is really not implying anything about the israeli side, other than that trump is a piece of shit.

[–] ilikemoney@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

You should buy it it. Sound investment in anti weird persona.
