It's amazing they went with "friendly fire" to describe shooting three guys waving a white flag with their hands up, then chasing down the guy who survived the initial massacre and murdering him in cold blood as he begged for his life in Hebrew.

Yeah , I'm not surprised. If you're constantly online the way an 18-24 year old is, then for the past few months you've been exposed to thousands of images and videos of very relatable kids, teens and twenty somethings being put through unimaginable horror.
There's probably going to be some kind of crackdown on the internet soon. The US can't support a genocidal colonial project if the victims can livestream their suffering to the world.
which is amazing considering that both times it was basically just a coin flip in terms of how the margins worked out.
and Biden still would have flat out lost if it hadn't been for Covid.
Netanyahu's entire network of graft and political control is now more unstable than a house of cards, and the only thing that could possibly prop it back it up is a military victory over Hamas.
Bombing refugee columns isn't enough, they need boots on the ground.
They spent decades trying every possible way to get a deal or some kind of accommodation that would let them live and build something, and all it ever got them was more settlers and more death. Shit, it wasn't that long ago that they tried a Ghandi style peaceful march to the ghetto walls , the Israeli's shot 8000+ of them and the world hardly noticed.
I took a long time to get to this point. Conditions have to become completely intolerable before the average person decides that a fight against jets, drone swarms and automated machine guns is preferable to life under occupation.
The Israeli security state has a reputation for competence. I wonder, were they also hollowed out be decades of neoliberal policies'?
Probably doesn't help that the political leadership consists of a bunch of guys who had to pull every dirty trick to keep themselves and their friends in office, because otherwise they'd be in prison for corruption.
It's way too late at this point. Two decades of insane US foreign policy have forced China, Russia and Iran into a partnership, so instead of taking on China they'd be taking on all of Asia, and that's just not possible.
How the fuck can they read accounts of SS Galicia killing tens of thousands of civilians, and burning men, women and children alive and then be like "Thank you for your service".
They must be getting spooked by all the public admiration and sympathy for the assassin, which doesn't seem to be fading away at all.
lol, the post-collapse Zoomer warlords would cook and eat him
That's pretty bad , damn, it took Trump the covid winter + January 6th to finally fall below 40%.
Probably doesn't help that Biden now looks like he belongs in a sarcophagus.
