Israel has been victorious in radicalizing at least two generations of Palestinians, eroding global support for Israel, and igniting a regrettable wave of anti-Semitic sentiment.
Good job Bibi!

I mean they were doing a good job radicalizing Palestinians before the genocide, but yeah.
News: “If Hamas is nearly defeated, and you know how to end the war, does that mean you’ll stop killing innocent Palestinians?”
Bibi: “actually quite the opposite; that just means we can build more settlements on the land we bombed into oblivion while displacing more and repeating a vicious cycle!”
News: “ah, good strategy! Happy to hear of your good work.”
I can’t.
Not just the Palestinians. For historical parallel, Saladin was Kurdish. Now we don't know where the next person to liberate Palestine will come from, but he may not be Palestinian or born yet. Israel is in a long war with the entire region, and will only end the same way it ended for the Franks.
that's (CNN) equating zionism with being Jewish which is RACIST
Not just CNN, several US based Jewish heritage organizations, both militant politically and simply community based, have come out saying that zionism and judaism are intrinsically implied on each other, thus making anti zionism, anti semitism.
Which is bullshit of course, but in their eagerness to be able to pull the anti semitism card, they're tying every Jew in their communities to the horrendous shame of what's happening in Palestine.
I still don't get how a war keeps Netanyahu in power. I get October 7th and going after Hamas but isn't this enough? Have they even thought about who will step up to the mantle when Hamas is rremoved? Doesn't seem like this so called war is really thought out by anybody. And I maybe the only one that does it like WTF is Israel doing?
Wars allow people to justify their power grab.
Look at how this all started.
Israel is one of the major intelligence hub in the world. So how did the October 7 attack happen if that was true?
Netanyahu allowed it. Look at the Wikipedia page. He knew. He sacrificed his own people and allowed it to happen.
Egypt said it warned Israel days before the attack that "an explosion of the situation [was] coming, and very soon, and it would be big."[81] Israel denied receiving such a warning,[82] although Michael McCaul, Chairman of the US House Foreign Relations Committee, said that warnings were given three days before the attack.[83]
That's two countries saying Israel knew days before the attack.
According to The New York Times, Israeli officials had obtained detailed attack plans more than a year before the attack.
The New York Times, who spread propaganda for Israel, said Israel knew.
The Times reported, "Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision." According to The Times, the document was widely circulated among Israeli military and intelligence leadership, who largely dismissed the plan as beyond Hamas's capabilities, though it was unclear whether the political leadership was informed.
The Times is a British newspaper. They said the IDF knew and information stopped somewhere in the chain of command. That's two newspapers outside their country that knew the attack was going to happen.
According to a BBC investigation, surveillance reports suggested that Hamas was planning a significant operation against Israel, but senior IDF officers repeatedly ignored the warnings.[99]
BBC is one of biggest news sources in the world. That's three news sources outside Israel that knew more than one of top intelligence sources in the world. Mossad had spies in Hamas and some how thousands of fighters crossed the border.
Also @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world made a post with an article about how power hungry Netanyahu is. https://lemmy.ca/post/26088769/10725251
He can postpone the elections and the corruption cases for as long as the war is ongoing
uhh the IDF is losing to (the militant wing of) Hamas. Netanyahu will be sent to jail for reasons (corruption and fraud I think) which is why he seeks the US to fight a regional war for them. so basically 9/11 all over again.
Reminds me of that Iraqi official who, during Desert Storm, kept saying victory was imminent right up the moment the allied tanks came rolling up the street.
Ah, man, Baghdad Bob! I haven't thought about that guy in a while. He was good entertainment.
From what I have read, this war keeps dragging on because Israel can't agree on what to do after the fighting stops. Hamas obviously hasn't been destroyed and Israel either can't or won't do what is needed to destroy them, yet they don't want to agree to a cease fire either.
They can destroy Hamas by giving them no reason to fight. Remove the settlements from the West Bank and end the blockade on Gaza.
