With the exception of Eisenhower and Bush Sr. Eisenhower pressured not only the Israelis but the Brits and French to end their invasion and withdraw from the Suez canal. Bush Sr, riding on high on 90% approval polls after victory in the Gulf War, withheld aid to Israel due to their expanding settlements policies. I have little doubt that the Lobby helped bring him down in 92.-What literally every other president has done with regard to Israel since it's inception.
The greatest hope I have for Israel is enlightened Jews.This is hilarious. A huge self-own for the pro-Israel camp who have been claiming that Qatar, Hamas or the Russians have been funding the pro-Pal student protests across the US. Turns out that a left leaning prominent Jewish family in the US was the major funder of the protests.
An Israeli think tank singled out the Bafrayung Fund presumably thinking it was a nefarious Qatar or Hamas linked org but turns out it was not the people whom they had hoped it would be.
Surely he means not the return of the hostages but the finding of them dead in the rubble.the right wing of the Israeli coalition(Gvir/Smotrich) says that they will in no way accept the ceasefire deal as outlined by Biden and will dissolve the government if Bibi attempts it
(You'll need translation to read the tweets)
The deal, as its details were published today, means the end of the war and giving up on forcing the surrender of Hamas. This is a reckless deal, which is a victory for terrorism and a security danger to the State of Israel. Agreeing to such a deal is not the absolute victory - but the absolute defeat. We will not allow the end of the war without the complete elimination of Hamas.If the prime minister implements the reckless deal under the conditions published today, which mean the end of the war and the renouncing of Hamas, Otzma Yehudit will dissolve the government.
I have now spoken with the Prime Minister and made it clear to him that I will not be part of a government that will agree to the proposed outline and end the war without destroying Hamas and returning all the abductees.We will not agree to the end of the war before the destruction of Hamas, nor to a serious damage to the achievements of the war so far through the withdrawal of the IDF and the return of Gazans to the north of the Gaza Strip, nor to the wholesale release of terrorists who will return, God forbid, to murder Jews.We demand the continuation of the fighting until the destruction of Hamas and the return of all the abductees, the creation of a completely different security reality in Gaza and Lebanon, the return of all residents to their homes in the north and south and a massive investment in the accelerated development of these areas of the country.
You know you can return hostages, be they alive or dead. Even if dead, they get returned to their families.Surely he means not the return of the hostages but the finding of them dead in the rubble.
You can always tell when the love of your hostage-held fellow countrymen is greater than the your lust to destroy their takers when you bomb the houses they may be held in. You can always put flowers on their graves if their bodies are recovered and call them the hero’s of a greater, in this case, Zionism. It does wonders for the conscience.You know you can return hostages, be they alive or dead. Even if dead, they get returned to their families.
US congress passed bill, sanctioning the International Criminal Court (ICC) for pursuing arrest warrants for Israeli officials. The vote was 247-155, with 42 Democrats supporting the bill and 2 Republicans voting present.
Capitol Hill is Israeli occupied territory. - Pat Buchananbought and paid for
so much for International rules based order?
They were cheering them on when they focused on Putin.USA doesn't recognise ICC. What a shock.
It's not surprising, but it's now more than just the typical, overt lobbying groups. Countries are just making up fake people to make it look like there is grass roots support for specific actions. In the long run, it's just going to poison the well for grass roots things.
