For Passover, Benjamin Netanyahu again uses the bible to justify genocide in Gaza, comparing Hamas to “Pharaoh” and promises “additional and painful plagues” for Palestinians.
The events of recent days suggest we may be seeing the Israeli endgame take shape. Netanyahu’s far right government’s goals are not limited to Gaza: it wants to take over all of Palestine and start a war with Hezbollah and Iran as well.
Benjamin Netanyahu continues to raise the risk of a regional war which could draw in the U.S. — and the mainstream media is hiding the danger from its audience.
Benjamin Netanyahu may have been angry the U.S. refused to veto the ceasefire resolution in the U.N. Security Council this week, but he will still use it to prolong the Gaza genocide.
Democrats are fracturing over support for Israel, because their constituents don’t support it. The long-term result might be the end of the bipartisan consensus on Israel.
Democrats are criticizing the Israeli government for not reflecting the desires of Israelis in its war on Gaza. Netanyahu may be hated, but it’s clear he’s not acting against the will of his people. That description is far more fitting for Joe Biden.
The Biden administration sees Benny Gantz as a leader who can be reasoned with. To his supporters, Gantz sells himself as the “rational” alternative to Netanyahu, but just as iron-fisted in his policies toward Gaza and the Palestinians.
Thousands of Israelis protested in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem calling on Netanyahu to resign, while others attempt to block aid trucks from entering Gaza. Meanwhile, the UN said it has suspended the employees who Israel alleges took part in October 7.
