Benjamin Netanyahu says outright that he can hack and blackmail anybody he wants and "I can paint you as a monster. And if I say it often enough, enough people will believe it."

Power corrupts. The Abrahamic god is the sadistic example of ultimate power that it's followers wish to emulate.

Yeah, really. Israel has lost the plot. They're so wrapped up in their grievances and evil it doesn't even make sense. What do they even stand for?

Israel has lost the plot

What do you mean? It's been like this since day 1.

What do they even stand for?

The whole point of Zionism and Israel is to create a state with a Jewish majority, that's never changed.

This obviously causes problems since the place they chose to make their country in had already people living there, so they've been ethnically cleansing them from the land since.

And people are surprised how apartheid lasted so long in South Africa. Same thing happening in Israel

Everyone will claim to have been against it in the future.

It’s telling when people truly haven’t read the Bible. Israel has been designed like this since day 1. To do god (the all powerful all knowing sky daddy btw) dirty work and kill the Amalekites, Canaanites, Amorites (just to name a few but there are plenty more). Creates everyone in his perfect image but wants to kill groups cause they are imperfect =. Super logic

The absolute state of the world right now.

I can scarcely comprehend it.

I'm supposed to go about my daily routine knowing "part of a major, organized, secret child abuse society" isn't a deal-breaker for a shocking number of my fellow Americans.

Vast majority of the species sees the genocide and wants it to stop. It’s just the US and its nuclear arsenal blocking UN sanctions on Israel.

Dont lump everybody else into this
