Nothing surprising. Israeli is a democracy and they will discuss a range of options. -

Cabal? Really? We can always count on you and other western pro maga types to repeat Kremlin talking points. -

Yep. Ukrainian blood on their hands. Maga is not just isolationist. They are anti-Ukraine, and pro Putin. -

You haven't heard? How convenient for you. Do you think it helps your credibility as an obvious Israel demonizer to act so dumb? Hamas’s Genocidal Intentions Were Never a Secret - The Atlantic Understanding Hamas’s Genocidal Ideology A close read of Hamas’s founding documents clearly shows its intentions. -

Again NEITHER side wants a two state solution. A one state solution means the end of Israel. Don't ask me what a solution could be because looking at the history nobody has come close to cracking that nut. -

That ship has sailed. In the movement before the founding of Israel there were other geographical options discussed and considered. Obviously Israel was most ideal because of the ancient bond between the Jewish people and the land of Israel (Next Year In Jerusalem) but the core idea was a political self determination liberation movement where Jews could finally avoid the cyclical persecution in the diaspora. So it could have been somewhere else at least theoretically. But Israel exists now and isn't going anywhere. -

You conveniently fail to mention that the stated goal of Hamas is genocide of Jews. So Israel is supposed to just cave? It's funny not ha ha to me. Jew haters attack Jews for being too passive as in WW2 and they also attack when Jews finally realized they needed serious military power to survive as in Israel. As the saying goes: “If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.” Golda Meir -

Another one that eschews the complexity of real life. Are Palestinian Arabs really different than Jordanian Arabs? You ignore the fact that there was mass migration to British Mandate Palestine to take advantage of economic opportunities from the pan Arabic world related to Zionist pioneers. This fetishism over specific Palestinian Arab identity is an artificial construct. Anyway I agree with you that the west bank settlements are illegal. -

It's no secret. Israel's war goals in response to the barbaric attack on October 7 include both getting the hostages back AND crushing Hamas. Both goals are very difficult. -

Yeah I also don't find his "condemnation" at all sincere. -

Episode 6 of Season 3 of The Young Royals which is the FINALE of the entire series is out today. Without any spoilers, I will call it an emotionally satisfying conclusion. -

Yeah when Trump was president he spoke for me. Sure thing, dude. He never got a majority of votes and never will. Hamas is on record as having every intention of doing October 7 attacks again and again and again and their intention is to kill all the Jews. Yet to you it's a bad thing that Israel is stopping them at least for now. Hamas still holds hostages as well. Calling for an unconditional cease fire is calling for Israel to surrender, and why should they? I'm not going to play into your simple minded cheap gotcha condemn on demand game. I said they made mistakes. I said Netanyahu shouldn't be in power. Going back I doubt October 7 would have happened if Netanyahu wasn't in power then, but that doesn't mean he's to blame for what the Hamas terrorists did and continue to intend to do if they are effectively crushed by Israel. -

Bingo. I'm not neutral. I support the right of Israel to exist and defend itself. I know for a fact that Jews are indigenous to Israel and the leftist narrative of apartheid, "white" colonialization, and genocide is a crock. I think Hamas set up a trap and Israel felt they had no choice but to fall into it resulting in Israel badly losing the PR war. Possibly permanent damage to the future of Israel. I hope not but Israel demonizers have cause for optimism. I can also see that Israel has made mistakes and that Netanyahu has been a disaster. -

More stupidity. Being elected doesn't mean your views gel with 100 percent of your region. Stop lying about my views on Israel. Yeah you're a real 50 50 kind of guy. -

Don't be so stupid. No group is a monolith. Not all settlers are right wing extremists. Many are there mainly because they can't afford decent housing in regular Israel. Everything has to black and white with you. The real world is much more complicated. -

Agreed but her views do not represent the Israeli government.
