CBS host confronts Israel’s Netanyahu: Are you killing Palestinians as a plot ‘to stay in power’?
Right-wing authoritarianism 101:
“A vote for me strikes a blow at our enemy.”
Meaning, it’s crucially important to have, or manufacture, enemies. And then kill, or harm and suppress them, with little to no hesitation. Same thing is happening here by way of our own hard-right. It’s standard anti-democratic politics.
Bully’s are always the victim.
“It’s a complicated situation” not right now it isn’t. This isn’t about decades of geopolitics. This is about 200 missiles launched against Gaza in under 10 minutes, this is about about the forced expulsion of Palestinian civilians from their homes, this is about Israel continuing to escalate their air and ground attacks against Palestinian civilians who do not have sophisticated defense protections, this is about Israel breaking international law and committing war crimes against Palestinian civilians while claiming that it is “self defense”. The world is watching genocide unfold right now and nobody is stopping it.
