They’re all executives of the genocidal colonial project. This is just theatre.
I don’t have a lot of hope for the future of Israeli politics, but I do hope to see Netanyahu in cuffs. That would be a good day
It’s like Nazis arresting Nazis.
History fucking rhymes
You saw Hamilton too? /S
Fair, but if he’s ever arrested it’ll be by people even more extreme than he is.
As it has been looking for a while now, Israel is a lost cause with no way back to civility in sight.
The Israeli population overwhelmingly support the atrocities an war crimes committed by Israel.What will be done to Israel and it’s population will unfortunately not even be even as insufficient as Nazi Germany was. Not unless the world changes the way it deals with a society in the aftermath of a genocide.
There was a means of (false) denial of knowledge within the population that could be used as a means of self criticism in Germany. This denial is mostly untrue; but was still reasonable enough for means of recovery. A means of recovery that still allowed for the idealism of liberal thought to operate within. A means of recovery but definitely not a means of justice.
The levels of recovery and justice that Israel would require at this point would give Stalin himself a moment of pause. Not just in his famous “kill all the Nazi officers” comment. But the level of real and justified “reeducation” that would need to be forced on to the Israeli population would need to expand beyond the level that our Liberal ideas of “freedom” could contemplate.
It’s an example of a society that is too sick and beyond repair that the ideas of justice we are taught in the west lack the tools to address.
But I hope we understand this soon. Because the rise of the AFD in Germany should show us that a reasonable denial/acceptance with a reflection on the harms caused is NOT enough. The fascist and racist supremacy needs to be pulled out from it’s root.
Those unable to be reeducated need to be removed from society and influence on future generations. Especially those with wealth and political influence. Their children need to be given a chance to repair the harms and make peace without the corruption of a generation indoctrinated by fascist and racial supremacist ideology.
If we don’t take into account these larger harms; and instead focus on individual “rights” the seed of fascism with continue to spread. Its a parasite that latches on to the ideas of Liberal thought. It will continue to take root unless the anchors it latches onto are removed entirely.
Edit: I say all of this as an American with complete awareness that our society is following a similar path.
The AFD is only winning because the liberal center pinned their platform on an unpopular war that destroyed their economy, and all to arm the same fascism you speak of.
Western liberals are only NIMBY about fascism. They foster it within our “adversaries”, in Ukraine and Russia. Navalny was a fascist. Pussy Riot are fascists.
And sure, Russia has done like in exchange.
The big winner is fascists everywhere.
I agree, unfortunately everything you write is true, including USA being on a similar path.
At least there is still hope for USA, as for now it’s “only” half the population that has gone crazy. I think USA is at a tipping point.
Liberman’s letter claims Netanyahu ‘has been pressuring security chiefs to take steps that might cause a miscalculation vis-a-vis Iran’, according to The Times of Israel. The paper noted that the letter did not provide specific examples or evidence of the alleged offences, and assessed that an investigation was highly unlikely. A request for an investigation is not a charge or a finding of wrongdoing.
A day before the first election in four years that he hasn’t been able to cancel…
But his administration isn’t following their orders.
Bibi just can’t keep his coalition, which is why he’s been canceling elections and trying to cancel this one too.
I genuinely wonder what Netanyahu will do if he loses his election, or for that matter what Trump will do.
Maybe Trump tries to send the military to aid Netanyahu’s inevitable coup attempt.

I thought he had won reelection a few months back? Or am I thinking of something else?
It’s tomorrow, and technically he’s not on the ballot…
People pick a party, and then the parties get together and pool their votes until it forms a coalition, and that coalition picks a party to lead, then I think that party picks the PM.
The current coalition has no real chance of continuing. Because it’s a shit ton of extremism who don’t want to compromise with any other group of extremists.
A big attack right before the election to cancel it was his only hope, but he’s apparently tried and failed already
