Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged in a scathing speech to Congress to achieve “total victory” against Hamas and criticized American opponents of the war in Gaza as “idiots.”

This guy just walked into the capitol of the United States and criticized the American people for exercising their first amendment right. The audacity.

    Seeing Congress applaud him for his mad rantings really reminds me of the rubber stamp parliaments in Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union filled with acolytes who mindlessly clapped the Great Leader.

    What the fuck is wrong with the US?

    Imma exercise my first amendment right:

    Fuck you, Bibi. You’re a fucking genocidal fascist. You are only making life harder for Jews all over the world (because lots of people don’t fully understand the difference between Israel and Jewish people), and most of those Jews are pretty fucking pissed at you as a result - not to mention, the vast majority of non-racist people. You’re going to be remembered for your crimes against humanity, and that’s it, you fucking sandwich-filling psycho.

        Well they basically have taken Gaza. They control it. Now they’re just doing the Nazi part of killing all the people.

      the icc is trying to but the us & the uk are working hard to prevent it; probably more, but these are the only 2 to public acknowledge their efforts to thwart international law to enable a genocide.

    Speaking for nearly an hour to frequent applause from U.S. lawmakers, as well as stony silence from many leading Democrats

    It’s really not a good look to be applauding this corrupt, mass-murdering, genocidal egotist.

    he tries to walk in Zelensky’s footsteps but fails on so many fronts: while Ukraine was the victim of oppression, Israel state is the source of it, ICC issued warrant for Putin and… Netanyahu (it’s interesting how US chose to ignore court order).

    Hamas and Israel state work towards the same goal - maintain instability for their personal gain. Anybody glorifying Hamas is either stupidd or naive, so are people glorifying Israely army. To be solved this conflict requires new powers to arise on both sides that are ready for dialog and tired of fighting and able to sidestep existing powrr structures (or demolish them).

        that’s not what we’re hearing from Harris. She’ll be dancing on a tight rope, but she clearly signaled that Israel has crossed the line. Lets see what are the consequences.

        I agree with cause and effect argument. I’m dealing more with present situation as-is. You have (indirectly) confirmed that it’s in Hamas’ interest to keep conflict alive to exist as an entity. (Note: I did not disregard points on Israel being the oppressor)

    For the murder of hundreds of UN workers alone, he should have been arrested. This fucker killed OUR people. On top of thousands of civilians he’s killed. He should have been arrested, but it seems like this guy is the one in charge.

    Netanyahu can kiss my ass. I wish I could have gotten a plane ticket just to go protest him.
