A group of academics at Harvard issued the following
statement on the 11th October last year: "Start with the rockets fired into Israel by Hamas on October 7th 2023 and not with the illegal occupation of Palestinian land by Israel and the blockade of Gaza since 2007 and you have an entirely different story..." Presenting the full story is not anti-Semitic Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 1 October 2024 12:35:25 PM

The Times of Israel reports that 57% of Israelis view
Netanyahu's performance since October 7th as "Poor, very poor," sub-par as of July 2024. We're told that "given these sentiments it's crucial to enable the Israeli populance to elect new leadership capable of addressing urgent issues and guiding the nation towards a secure and unified future". ""This is not merely a condemnation - but a call for introspection and reform and a renewed commitment to democratic principles in Israeli governance." "The nation needs to work towards a new government that is not dictatorial, authoritarian, but accountable, effective, and representative of diverse parties committed to democratic rule, respect for the judiciary and the Supreme Court, adherence to checks and balances, equality and a genuine pursuit of peace". Something that is very much lacking in the current Israeli government under Netanyahu. Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 1 October 2024 2:32:48 PM

"As Netanyahu promised last year, the Middle East is being remade."
- A new 'western hegemony' they say - based on assassinations, cross border attacks, ethnic cleansing, genocide. "Celebrations are continuing in Syria over the demise of Hezbollah and their despicable leadership." - What the Jihadis, ISIS? "As the IDF now moves in to southern Lebanon to continue to clean out the Hezbollah rats nests" - Good luck with that "Meanwhile the Houthis have been given a mere taste of what awaits them if they continue to tweak the Israeli noses. Their ports city is currently ablaze with no prospect of controlling the fire." - Saudis gave them a taste for 8 years, didn't do much - The US carrier group packed up and left after being attacked too many times - they've lost at least 10 MQ Global Hawks - keep dreaming Posted by Armchair Critic, Tuesday, 1 October 2024 3:42:11 PM

"The Times of Israel reports...."
Oh really? Can you now tell me what Pravda thinks of Putin? Did that go over your head? Well let's just say Times of Israel isn't quite unbiased on issues related to Netanyahu. Meanwhile, in the real world, "On Friday, August 9, for the first time since the start of the war, the weekly Maariv poll conducted by Dr. Menachem Lazar found Netanyahu's Likud would win in a party vote if elections were held that day. Netanyahu also hit another landmark, coming in first place with 42 percent in a head-to-head question about whether he or National Unity party leader Benny Gantz is best suited to be prime minister. Gantz, who left Netanyahu's war cabinet in June to return to the opposition, was chosen by 40 percent of respondents." "These findings aren't an anomaly. In Maariv's survey a week later, on August 16, Netanyahu's Likud once again won the top spot, one seat ahead of National Unity. Netanyahu won again in a head-to-head question against Gantz, though this time by just one point. But the real reason to pay attention is that Netanyahu's polling breakout is consistent with a longer, drawn-out recovery since April." ___________________________________________________________________- AC, "What the Jihadis, ISIS?" No the people fighting Assad who Hezbollah supported with massive numbers of troops since Assad is part of the Iranian faux-empire. http://tiny.cc/663ozz Re the Saudis, US and Houthis. The US never took the fight to Yemen, just tried playing defence. And the Saudis aren't the IDF. In one sortie the IAF did more damage to the Houthi cause than years of Saudi pinpricks.
