1. It's Saturday night and people across Israel are calling for Netanyahu to go. Enough. Enough.

4. Enough already with the warmonger. Kick him to the curb and try...

his corrupt ass.

This war is just leading to more on-again-off-again wars.

It's been 75 years of this cycle...enough is enough.

32. I have a novel idea. . .stop attacking Israel. This wouldn't have happened if Hamas didn't murder 1200 civilians

Each time Israel went to war they were attacked or had an act of war done to it. In 1967, the one time Israel attacked first, the Egyptians blocked the Straits of Hormuz to Israeli ships. A blockade IS an act of war.

That's what the Cuban Missile Crisis was so dangerous. JFK blockaded Cuba. If Cuba attacked the blockade of the Soviet Union attempted to break the blockade, it was WW3.

Stop attacking Israel and this shit ends immediately. Turn over those that did Oct 7th and this ends immediately. Why aren't people demanding that? Why is the ball always in Israel's court?

Oh, I know the answer. Israel is the most evil country on Earth and Hamas are just innocent freedom fighters.

34. Get it straight, buddy. I didn't attack Israel. I called on Israel to get rid of warmonger Netanyahu...

and for Israel to kick him out and try his corrupt ass. Seems you can't tell the difference between corrupt Netanyahu and Israel.

Well the hundreds of thousands of Israelis who are protesting in the streets and calling for his dismissal certainly can. What's up with you that you can't?

[AZLD4Candidate]

35. Because I live in PA now after being overseas for 17 years and while I support Israel 100%, not much I can to influence

things there from here.

Seems you can't tell the difference between corrupt Netanyahu and Israel.

I've gone on record many times here saying I support Israel while wanting Bibi gone.

Get it straight, buddy. I didn't attack Israel. I called on Israel to get rid of warmonger Netanyahu...

Needlessly aggressive and aloof. I believe I am done speaking to you, pal.

[brush]

36. If you've been on record wanting Bibi gone, why are you arguing with me for calling for the same thing?

Is there a comprehension problem? Calling for warmonger Netanyahu to be ousted is not the same as attacking Israel, which I didn't do.

Got it?

2. Good. I hope they succeed before he kills another 40,000 Palestinians.

[Raven123]

3. Hope they are successful. They are the only ones who can effect change

[PatSeg]

12. Hopefully Netanyahu doesn't turn on his own people

Right now, I think he is like a cornered rat and seems to be capable of anything to save his own skin.

[TomDaisy]

15. Why doesn't everyone see this?

[PatSeg]

20. I don't know

It is rather unnerving.

[LuvLoogie]

26. Do you mean why isn't it being reported by

CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX?

Do you really need to ask?

[TBF]

5. I love Israel and want him to go -

but I also worry about who will replace him. And I feel the same about the other side. Netanyahu can kill Palestinians all day long, but for every Hamas member he destroys there are 3 more coming up.

First both sides need to be separated (I believe Palestine also needs their own state), build a wall between them if we have to. And then start working on diplomacy. These are 2 groups so entrenched in hate that I see no other way, and it will take time.

eta - I feel like I should add that I don't want to paint a broad brush of all Israelis and Palestinians being hateful. There certainly seem to be many zealots on either side that have shown they want to actually wipe out the other, but I'm also confident that there are many everyday folks who just want to live their lives in peace - on both sides.

8. I share your sentiments.

Thank you.

[TomDaisy]

16. a wall cannot create an open-air prison, which is what has been going on for decades

and is a large part of the cause of what is happening

[TBF]

21. A wall to just ease the tensions for a bit -

we can argue all day/night about who is more to blame, but that gets us nowhere.

I like "Women Wage Peace" - the group Vivian Silver (murdered on Oct 7th) co-founded, to work with Palestinian women on peaceful paths forward. I believe many people want this, unfortunately we are not the loudest or most powerful people.

[Israeli]

24. We have a wall between us already

I live 15 mins from it .

[TBF]

27. I do think each state deserves it's own sovereignty and leadership -

but I'm open to ideas from folks who live there. My connection is tangential at this point, having married into an American Jewish family (also with family in Israel, so I know some of the background but will not pretend to be any sort of expert).

[AZLD4Candidate]

33. I have friends in the IDF and a fraternity brother in Israel. All of them say if they leave us alone, there would be no

problems.

I get my info from them being there, just like I rail against the CCP after living in China as long as I did and marrying a Chinese woman.

[John Shaft]

6. I wonder how many are outside agitators?

/sarcasm

[Scrivener7]

10. Yep. Waiting for the usual suspects here to call them anti-semites.

But may these protestors prevail!

[Israeli]

25. Its not going to stop us protesting

they don't call us antisemites , its kind of hard to do
Instead they call us traitors and arab lovers .
Same thing they did to Rabin .

Ive been posting for years on this forum calling for a two State solution .
Been called many things including self hating Jew .
One member who still posts here told me that I should leave my country of birth .
Why ?
Because Im not Jewish enough for him , he lives in America
We get that all the time .

[Scrivener7]

30. You can't make this shit up.

[bahboo]

7. good....get that fucker out of office...

and into jail where he belongs...

[et tu]

9. so hopeful for change

impressive!

[AllyCat]

11. The Israelis don't want him either.

[1WorldHope]

13. If only we could protest like that.

What will it take?

[TomDaisy]

17. our kids are trying - they are showing us the way

[TBF]

22. This I agree with you on - I applaud their efforts. nt

[AZLD4Candidate]

31. How? By targeting Jewish students on college campuses because Jew Israeli?

[TomDaisy]

37. pretty sure this broad-brush false smear isn't working any more.

[AZLD4Candidate]

38. So they aren't targetting Jewish students? Gotcha.

[HandmaidsTaleUntold]

14. Get Rid Of Him

He is their MAGA Trump...crossed with Bush.

[TeamProg]

18. Keep them going! nt

[GiqueCee]

19. People should not...

... conflate the state of Israel with Netanyahu, any more than they should conflate Palestinians with Hamas. And yes, Israel has every right to defend itself, but Netanyahu crossed a line, and calling him out for that is NOT antisemitic.
The horrors inflicted on Palestinian civilians are described and reported by doctors associated with NGOs that are on the ground. They are NOT the inflated statistics spewed by Hamas, but they DO qualify as war crimes. Herding civilian refugees into a specific area, calling it a "Safe Haven", and then bombing the shit out of it cannot be justified under ANY circumstances. Disallowing clean water, plastic sheeting, and sleeping bags is a war crime.
Israel and the Israeli people, do not deserve to be lumped in with Netanyahu and his cabinet of right wing psychopaths, any more than Palestinian civilians deserve to be lumped in with the scrofulous scum of Hamas. Netanyahu will never successfully eradicate Hamas. Instead, he has created a roster of new fanatic recruits for whatever bloodthirsty group takes their place.

[TBF]

23. Exactly - this is how I feel as well. nt

[LetMyPeopleVote]

28. For everyone complaining about Biden splitting with Netanyahu, take it up with the citizens of Israel.

29. I'll listen to Israelis more than I'll listen to dumb ass Americans. They have more at stake than anyone else.
