    Israel declares War - Destruction of Gaza / Growing conflict in Middle East

    One such hurdle that is often overlooked by the public is how changes in government often result in changes in terms of the deal, often before they get finalized. Most of the diplomatic efforts to solve this conflict have panned out this way, so I'm not exactly optimistic when I see that all...

    Don't have much to say other than I'm relieved the jurors didn't get swayed by his and his supporters' antics. But it's not over. It's not going to be over without us making sure that the generations after us learn to recognize what authoritarians look like, and it's not going to be over until...

    Israel declares War - Destruction of Gaza / Growing conflict in Middle East

    https://iop.harvard.edu/youth-poll/47th-edition-spring-2024? Bear in mind that this is the demographic that has expressed the most support for an immediate ceasefire. Apparently not that much, if we go by polling among those most likely to oppose his Gaza/Israel policy.

    Israel declares War - Destruction of Gaza / Growing conflict in Middle East

    I'd argue that international pressure and popular sentiment against Israeli policy in Gaza is exactly why I could see that scenario develop. The internal politics of Israel are driven by security: if they won't have security through negotiations, they're going to get it by force. Because Bibi...

    Are you saying the term no longer apply to all Israeli citizens? If so, which ones are welcome to stay?

    Israel declares War - Destruction of Gaza / Growing conflict in Middle East

    That's... A great post... Are you calling Poland hell, or are you saying Israelis should all die? Does that include Arab and Ethiopian and Bedouin Israelis too?

    C-SPAN is still giving air time to Trump administration officials, especially those who still push the 2020 stolen election lie. There's something very wrong with our media continuing to pretend that theyre doing their job when they try to draw equivalencies between the GOP and the Democratic...

    Whoever said that an outsider's perception of Israel depends on the generation they're part of was right. Here's 45 on Palestine: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/27/trump-israel-gaza-policy-donors/

    The ICC decision is the only one that makes sense. Bibi, his settler ministers, Haniyeh and Sinwar must all be tried for war crimes. No long-term peace is coming from any of these actors. Issuing an arrest warrant for one or the other leadership group will be interpreted as a victory for the...

    You're preaching to the choir ITT. I know a crowd that needs to hear you, but you might just get ignored :tongue: And the best way to do it is to ensure the guy that can't be pressured by anything other than money wins. /s I think it should be obvious by now that the Left's inability to win...
