Trump is at least as far right as Netanyahu. He supports the full destruction of Palestine and Palestinians. His election has dropped all Israeli pretense in their propaganda. They can now do what they want with impunity since Trump’s administration will provide all the international cover that they need and Trump’s admin will happily brag about the genocide they helped to perpetrate.
They’re already doing what they want with impunity as evidenced by this being planned out, at this moment, while Joe Biden is president.
Yeah, he could at any time issue consequences while we can still impose them. Lets see what he does.
I see an angry phone call coming in someone’s future. Perhaps even some coarse language like “bullshit” or “bastard” might be included if Biden really means business.
I agree, but the pretense of metering and diplomacy, no matter how fleeting, is gone.
