Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells i24 he feels he is on a “historic and spiritual mission,” and that he is “very” attached to the vision of Greater Israel, which includes areas slated for a future Palestinian state and possibly also areas that are part of present-day Jordan and Egypt.

    Obama contributed to this. He campaigned on opposing settlement expansion, supporting a two-state solution, and acknowledging Palestinian suffering, but in office he largely upheld U.S. support for Israel, backing down on settlement freezes, defending Israeli assaults on Gaza, vetoing UN actions, and signing a record military aid package.

      Yea I totally remember when instead of continuing Israel’s state, you know he moved the capital and all of this as well… cause no dems have ever done this but you still need a boogie man…remember Biden’s genocidal plan? No you don’t cause you made it up all along while this shit was waiting on the wings… all it takes is a simple mind which here we have… https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2025/1/28/trumps-genocidal-plan-to-clean-out-gaza-was-there-all-along

        If you can’t accept legitimate criticism of your side, you’re in a cult.

        I’m not a republican, I’m a socialist Palestinian. Biden did start and enthusiastically support the genocide that Trump is finishing.

          Legitimate criticism is fine, absolutes making both sides the same isn’t helpful.

          Absolutism works both ways and you calling others cultists doesn’t help you. In fact it perpetuates the very genocide you claim to oppose.

          Here we are and you’re making enemies of the genocide’s enemy…

            You aren’t the genocide’s enemy if you’re still supporting the same unapologetic people that started it. You’re just self righteous.
