It would be nice, but I don't think the Israeli apartheid regime is anywhere close to being on its last legs. Maybe Netanyahu is, at least, and having him no longer able to incite mass extermination events to remain in power would be a positive.

Well, even farther from collapse, then, I guess.
But, getting closer every day!
So who is to replace him that doesn't have the same agenda?
Really hoping the people in the middle east will be able to access aid the coming weeks/months/years, feels like a rhyming shit show is about to unfold there
What parts of this rhyme? And in what accent?
It's not the accent. The saying is "history doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme."
South africa apartied died like the meme shows. Isreal is rhyming the same way. America is on the same trajectory as great Britain.
They all rhyme
I think its a play on the phrase "history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes".
Israel has now invaded or otherwise attacked Iran, Lebanon, and Syria in addition to the ongoing genocide in Gaza and ongoing settler colonialism in the West Bank.
I hadnt heard that before but thats a dumb saying. Thats not what rhyming means and history is literally repeating itself. If anything id say "history doesnt repeat itself verbatim but it says the same thing with different synonyms". Not as punchy i guess but the words 'door' and 'floor' rhyme and their meanings are completely different whereas the meaning and intention behind these actions are the same thing just with different perpetrators/excuses.
It doesn't literally rhyme, but it's a decent metaphor. Much more pithy and it gets the point across.
Thats my point though, its not a good metaphor. Rhyming doesn't mean 'two things that are similar but have different surface details', it means 'two things that sound the same but have totally separate and unique purpose/meaning'. If anything saying it rhymes would mean its alike on a surface level but different in truth, which is the opposite of the message the quote is trying to convey i think.
