In other genocide news, Elon Musk has begun to provide Starlink services to Israeli-occupied territories in the north of Israel.
https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/elon-musk-s-starlink-arrives-in--israel--for-use-in-occupied
So now Musk is attempting to overthrow the elected governments of Brazil and Venezuela, supports the genocide in Gaza, believes Harris is a communist and says he will vote for Trump.
Scratch a liberal and find a fascist, indeed.

This man is Israel’s disgrace.
He has embarrassed the country on the world stage.
He has cost Israelis the sympathy and support they rightly deserve over the attack, murder and hostage taking of their citizens.
He has cost Israel support with his war crimes.
He has needlessly protracted the conflict to save his own political life because the day this war ends, he is GONE. The overwhelming majority of Israelis want him gone.

Netanyahu won't survive much longer.

I don't particularly care for Netanyahu, but talk about being between a rock and a hard place. He's in one helluva situation. Grieving family members of hostages on one side and bloodthirsty terrorists on the other side.
bass4funk
Exactly, and if they replace him, it won't change anything and that person will wind up being in the same predicament.

Blood thirsty Israel created their hell,by not accepting a two state solution,now they are reaping what they sowed ,no.amount of American support will save Israelis from their hell they created, American support will lead to their demise

John, I think its going beyond that. This man may very well be the downfall of Israel.

Totally agree..

The population getting very angry. Biggest ally running out of patience. Enemy turning the screw. Despised throughout the world.
Time running out for Mr. n
bass4funk
I disagree

True!
Netanyahu is a war criminal who doesn't give two boots about the hostages!
This is all about him staying out of jail on corruption charges!
plasticmonkey
Exactly. As soon as the conflict ends, Bibi will be out of office and back on trial.
The rock and hard place he's stuck between is the electorate (who widely despise him) and his far right coalition creeps like Gvir and Smotrich (who want Gaza to be obliterated and then repopulated with Jews).
Aly Rustom
I don't care.
bass4funk
Ditto

And then?
Ok, and then?

""Netanyahu said he will continue to insist on a demand that has emerged as a major sticking point in talks — continued Israeli control of the Philadelphia corridor, a narrow band along Gaza's border with Egypt where Israel contends Hamas smuggles weapons into Gaza. Egypt and Hamas deny it.""
That is a LIE, Hamas was and still gets arms from within Israel, Netanyahu Armed Hamas at first, the majority of Hamas arms are supplied by Israeli arms dealer who are selling to Hamas in Gaza and in the west bank too and that's why you see them carrying AR-15 and NATO style weapons in the west bank and the rest of Palestine.
What Bibi is hoping for is that he can encircle Gaza 360 so he and his $$$ hungry settlers can take the land and build resorts on it's beautiful warm beaches and natural Gas resources.
Bibi could care less about Israel's security, it's all about his and those around him $$$$ benefits.

I agree Woody
bass4funk
I think so.

Netanyahu still has an ongoing court case for corruption that is suspended because of the war.
Aly Rustom
Ditto.
bass4funk
Exactly
He will survive it once it resumes

Netanyahu still has an ongoing court case for corruption suspended because of the war.
Previous PMs did not.
"Ehud Olmert – Prime minister from 2006 to 2009, cabinet minister 1988–1992, 2003–2006, mayor of Jerusalem 1993–2003. Convicted of breach of trust in July 2012, and of bribery in March 2015. In May 2015, Olmert was sentenced to six years in prison, but his sentence was reduced to 18 months in December 2015."
bass4funk
You made my point for me, even if he gets convicted, he won’t serve that long, so all is good.

bass4funk
I didn't even post about whether Netanyahu would serve time in prison. I said that when the Gaza War is over, the Netanyahu corruption case will continue, and whether he wins or loses, he will no longer be the PM. He currently can only maintain his office with the support of the extreme right-wing Zionists.
Yrral
Musk will find Hamas knocking at his door,why would brazen do this ,when you do not need the money, because he is a sociopath
Aly Rustom
We agree for once

Aly
not really. Three men without principles.
Aly Rustom
I agree
John
This is the guy that advocates his military blowing up just regular citizens as they queue to buy bread.
I hope he gets what he deserves.
Wasabi
Of course you have proof for this accusation?
bass4funk
Never count him out
Never say, never.
Not sure about that one….

Fair enough
