Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed President-elect Donald Trump’s electoral victory Monday, saying that “the time has come” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

He made the comment a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a recorded statement that he has spoken three times with Trump since the election and that they “see eye to eye on the Iranian threat.

Democrats should be allowed to do a genocide

Nobody should be genociding, that’s pretty obvious.

But would you prefer a little genocide or a big genocide?

I mean you personally, which one would you prefer?

The Democrats in power killed your family. You ask them to stop, and they look away. How do you wait in line to vote for them? It’s not about they voted for Trump instead. It’s about offering people whose vote you want, a reason to give it to you. Sorry your family died but we aren’t stopping isn’t that

No genocide is better. Turns out democrats supported genocide for nothing. There goes the narrative.

putting aside the absolute disgust on being ok with “proper genocide” by harris, turbo genocide is always better. would you prefer a slow painful death from hunger & disease or blown instantly to pieces ?

people in gaza are starving and their medicine aid from UN was on purpose bombed by israel under biden during election time. even after that harris said her policy will remain the same.

and given the history of flipflopper harris i have absolutely zero doubt that she would have happily let israel burn everyone alive in gaza, westham and palastine for few more millions donations to her re-election campaign from aipac. she would have used her getting the presidency as lesser evil to brag america voted for her policy of genocide.

Ah okay so a turbo genocide gets your support because it is the more ethical genocide?

You’re in luck, January 21st is coming for Palestine and you’ll get your wish 👌

did i say it gets my support ? my support will be to put both gop and most of dnc in solitary jail for life time for treason and war crimes. make them look at all the dead kids and homeless for rest of their life.

but hey instead i have to be content with “normal genocide” for a year only to have it upgraded thnx to dnc caring more about superpacs than voters.

You know the West Bank isn’t Gaza, right? And that it’s much, much larger, no? You’re seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better? You sick duck.

palestine in 1948 was larger but that didn’t stop anything https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deir_Yassin_massacre even today hundreds of palestinian in wb have their home taken away by settlers at gun point, sometimes just grenades are thrown into the homes with children.

You’re seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better? You sick duck.

am i wrong? and what else i am supposed to do ? we call ourselves a democracy but in elections we don’t even get an option of not having a genocide even when 70% americans are against it and 90% democrats. the irony that our “democratic” party can just tell its entire voter base to stfu on such issues.

I think my comment has been misinterpreted. Op said “good job” sarcastically. I too am using “good job” sarcastically. The Dems are the shot callers and play makers I am talking about. The ones deserving of blame due to their utter inability to denounce a genocide and instead promising to continue arming it.
