Who’s to blame for the failure to bring Israeli hostages home safe? Israeli officials have been telling us for months it’s Benjamin Netanyahu.

    Of course he is.

    It’s really a very simple calculus - any deal is going to include a timeline for Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza, and if Netanyahu signs off on a deal that includes a withdrawal from Gaza, the hard right assholes are going to turn on him. And if the hard right assholes turn on him, he’s not going to be able to hold onto the office. And if he doesn’t hold onto the office, he’s likely going to jail, because he’s not just a psychopathic piece of shit, but a grotesquely corrupt psychopathic piece of shit.

    And that’s really the whole deal right there - tens and potentially hundreds of thousands of people are dying and millions of people are displaced all so that one grotesquely corrupt psychopathic piece of shit can evade justice.

    Is Israel in the hands of a dictator or something? How is this dude still in power? Are there really that many blood-thirsty people in power supporting him? Maybe the solution would be to abduct some of their family and hand them to Hamas?
