It appears rather likely that Israel will be seeing one of its most extreme right-wing governments in history…The problem isn’t with Netanyahu, it’s with Israel. And whatever political force may come instead of him may even be worse.

Yair Lapid’s brazen demand for Israeli impunity for the killing of Shireen Abu Akleh is a disturbing demonstration of the relationship between Israel and its US benefactor.

Amjad Iraqi joins Yumna Patel to discuss Israel’s political motivations behind the attacks on Gaza known as “Operation Breaking Dawn.”

Israeli PM Yair Lapid’s unprovoked attack on Gaza that killed 17 children was part of a “good debut” for him with Israeli voters in his race against Netanyahu, says Tal Shalev of Walla News. Lapid faces the “hatred” of rightwing media, who echo Netanyahu’s racist talking point, Lapid can only form the next government with Palestinian parties. Lapid plays along by calling the Palestinian parties “extremist”.

While Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz was launching his assault on seven Palestinian NGOs on Thursday, Prime Minister Yair Lapid was pressing the United States closer to an attack on Iran that could send the entire region into an unprecedented conflict. 

Israeli politicians’ thin pretext for the latest attack on Gaza doesn’t add up, and the willing media doesn’t seem to care.

Israel’s latest attack on Gaza shows it is running out of options, and creating popular opposition around the world in the process. 

Amos Yadlin, a retired Israeli general who is a senior fellow at Harvard’s Kennedy School, praises onslaught on Gaza that killed 15 children as an “exceptional achievement.” Yadlin was protested at Harvard earlier this year. But he is excited now that PM Yair Lapid has passed the manhood test.

Merav Michaeli, leader of Israel’s Labor Party, taunts two million Palestinians who are under siege in Gaza: “No sovereign state would accept a siege on its residents by a terror organization.” She is showing that the “change” government in Israel can be as good at “mowing the lawn” — which means killing civilians who have nowhere to flee in Gaza– as Netanyahu so that it can hold him off in the November election.

The ‘NYTimes’ bias is clear as it attempts to blame Palestinians for Israel’s latest deadly unprovoked attack on Gaza .
