The thing about the "Israel wants Trump" argumemt is that I think what wants even more than is to not have a be seen to lose reelection for supporting Israel.

And I don't say that as some kind of checkmate, just a consideration I haven't seen brought up before.

I'm so fed up with mods falling for the "holocaust inversion" bullshit, I'm going to start reporting all apologist posts as "supporting violent ideologies."

Quds News: According to Axios, citing a U.S. administration official, the American hostages unit in Israel assisted in the release of the 4 Israeli captives in Gaza.

Footage published by an Israeli occupation soldier confirms Israel's use of the American temporary pier in central Gaza during its offensive operations in the Al-Nuseirat refugee camp.

Keeping up with and commenting on news 24/7 doesn't make you an informed citizen, much less an activist. It makes you a partisan hack who refuses to acknowledge the humanity of people who are already being killed by American . Turn off the Rachel Maddow and start reading some al jazeera.

Remember that and have given us several kabuki plays about their "disagreements" and "red lines" since the began. This deal could be just another one of those. Don't trust anything they say or do. Keep your eyes on Gaza.

Nope. Preventing a purely hypothetical genocide of our own making against ourselves is not more important than stopping a genocide we are currently committing against completely innocent people. Not even close.

It's probably best not to trust any Israeli voices on the state of things in or . Even this Israeli "scholar," who admits that Israelis are almost unanimously pro-genocide, is pushing the "sexual violence" lie about Oct. 7.

The more resistance that the colonized shows, the more brutal the colonizer becomes. Genocidal Israel is now walking in the footsteps of all other settler colonies on their deathbed.
