      They just won’t say it because it sounds dumb, but indeed they want a unilateral ceasefire

      That’s pretty misleading. What they actually said is they wouldn’t agree to a permanent ceasefire while Hamas remains in power.

          Hamas could have ended this at any time. They have turned down multiple ceasefire proposals because they will never admit defeat. They are fanatics.

          There are no military installations under Israeli playgrounds. Here’s a map of Israeli military sites.

          If you don’t believe that Hamas uses civilian sites to disguise their military actions, it would be ridiculously easy to disprove. Just show a map of their military sites. Further reading.

    I assume Netanyahu has already gotten his paint out to move the endzone.

    It’s kind of obnoxious people continue to put up with him when he’s actively famous for dicking around and playing with every partner, coalition or international.

    So?

    Blinken and Biden have been lying this entire time, I don’t think either one has admitted that they’re openly supporting a genocide against US and international law yet

    There is zero reason to believe anything the current admin says about Israel and their continuing genocide.

      It’s Netanyahu really. He prefers Trump, and will take any chance to make Biden eat shit publicly

        I mean Biden is making sure to double down on his support for Israel whenever he has the chance to do so. He is pro genocide.

        Trump is of course worse just for the record.

          I don’t think we’re disagreeing on much here, but the issue of money in politics cannot be overlooked. For establishment US politicians, especially ones with long memories like Joe, supporting Israel is axiomatic. It’s almost like Fouccault’s boomerang as applied to political spending - we fund genocide because we helped to create a genocidal state, and some of that money gets funneled back to our leaders to ensure the well never runs dry.

        I think he cares a lot more about maintaining his increasingly tenuous grip on power in Israel than what any US politician says or does.

        Why do people keep saying that?

        Putin owns trump and is allied with Israels neighbors…

        Biden would start WW3 to protects Israel’s ongoing genocide. trump would abandon them on a whim.

        What do t you understand about that?

        Why do you think there’s people on social media insisting it has to be Joe but unable to give a reason? They have a reason, they just don’t want to say it’s Joe’s unwavering support of Israel.

          Did you miss the RNC chanting and cheering about how much they support Israel? Trump knows his base - he’d never turn against Israel or Netanyahu. There’s a reason this exists.

            So you think the one thing that can turn him from Putin and all of his blackmail and bribes is Israel?

            Do you think that’s because they have more blackmail/bribes on/for trump?

            I just don’t understand how someone could think trump would pick anything over putin, so what do you think would make him pick Israel instead?

                You haven’t heard of the 5+1 treaty? Or you haven’t heard about Israel attacking one of their members for months?

    I’m not a big sports fan, but I know enough about football to know that ‘inside the 10-yard line’ sometimes turns into a touchdown for the opposite team.

      That would be like a 90+ yard pick six or an insane fumble recovery. Pretty rare, just sayin

    Just have to give them a few more months to continue bombing hospitals and schools and any and every building. Once they do that, a cease fire is possible.
