Netanyahu snaps back against growing US criticism after being accused of losing his way on Gaza, says Israel won't stop until 'total victory' is achieved
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is sharply protesting against growing criticism from top ally the United States over his leadership amid the war with Hamas.
Israel has decided to implement a "final solution" to the "Palestinian question".
Sounds like he never lost his way and genocide was always the goal.
I'm sure AIPAC has told Netanyahu they won't let US politicians stop the flow of money and arms to Israel (AIPAC is spending 100 million to keep progressives out of office). The criticism is just theater. Biden only started changing his language when people started voting "uncommitted" in battleground states, and he is still shipping arms to Israel every 36 hours. The Israeli blockade of humanitarian aid is barely mentioned officially, the air-dropped aid is woefully inadequate and little more than virtue signalling. 3 months ago, when Gazan civilian casualties were at 21,000+, Congress passed a bill making criticizing Zionism/Israel legally equal to antisemitism. All this shows that Netanyahu just needs to keep accepting aid and let Biden talk for political reasons until he's re-elected.
Am I the only one who has been hearing the frustrations coming from democrats and Biden about Netanyahu? Reading these comments you'd think Biden has been best buddy's with Netanyahu and all is squeaky clean in their relationship, which is very, VERY much not the case. You'd also think that democratic leadership didn't just call out Netanyahu and suggest Israeli's vote him out over Gaza.
It's so weird that Biden is simultaneously Genocide Joe and Pro Hamas Biden.
I know talk is cheap and we are still sending military aid to Israel, but it all comes down to Biden facing daily trolley problems and balancing keeping friendly relationships with our one (nuclear capable) middle eastern country, taking the US seriously as a country that can stop a genocide by saying no to this (nuclear capable) middle eastern country, a reelection, and sending a message to the United States allies and adversaries of if we will or will not support who we say we will support.
The answer to stop sending arms to Israel is clear to us, but let's not pretend it's that easy. The rules for rulers are not that straightforward.
total victory sounds like "wollt ihr den totalen krieg"
Israel lost it's way decades ago whenbit decides genocide over peace.
Large parts of the Israeli public want a deal, fearing that hostages are held in poor conditions and time is running out to bring them home alive.
Are they even thinking at their own people themselves? It seems to me they want the total destruction of gaza, including the hostages cought in these massive operations.
Disgusting savage
BDS
Do you want the total war?
Do you want it, if necessary, more total and radical than anything that we can yet today even conceive?
-Bibi Goebels, basically
Very disappointing to see from him. It is time to not support Israel.
I was against this from the beginning after the first day of asswopping. That's when the aggression should have stopped. Now I'm growing totally against this shit. I mean the civilians who have not much input are literally dying from hunger. What else do the Israeli government want? Can they do that without spending more American resources? I don't want to end up having to watch NOVA 20 years from now explaining how the US became involved in the yet another worse human castretosfe of the century. I'll be older and would probably fall asleep.
Maybe we just stop helping the Israeli government now?
Bibi over here testing the limits of Godwin's Law. Keep it up you fucking genocidal scum!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In recent days, top officials from the U.S., Israel’s staunchest ally which has provided key military and diplomatic support, have publicly voiced their frustration with Netanyahu and his government.
Netanyahu said that calls for an election now — which polls show he would lose badly — would force Israel to stop fighting and would paralyze the country for six months.
“No international pressure will stop us from realizing all of the goals of the war: Eliminating Hamas, freeing all of our hostages and ensuring that Gaza never again constitutes a threat to Israel,” he said.
Alon Pinkas, a former Israeli consul-general in New York and an outspoken critic of Netanyahu, said that the prime minister’s comments fit with his efforts to find someone else to blame should Israel not achieve its goal of destroying Hamas.
But pressure also comes from home, with thousands protesting again in Tel Aviv on Saturday night against Netanyahu’s government and calling for a new election and a deal to free remaining hostages.
At least 11 people from the Thabet family, including five children and one woman, were killed in an airstrike in Deir al-Balah city in central Gaza, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society and an Associated Press journalist.

"WOLLEN SIE DEN TOTALEN KRIEG?!?"
Okay "Adolph"
There will be no “total victory” without U.S. support. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
