This guy just walked into the capitol of the United States and criticized the American people for exercising their first amendment right. The audacity.

Netanyahu can get fucked. Like full stop. I have zero problem with any Jewish people who aren't engaged in genocide. Love you guys. But those that are can get fucked from top to bottom. And he is.

And yet again we have congress members clapping like trained seals to debunked Israel propaganda and the characterization of anti-war protesters being in favor of the killing of civilians.

"My friends, defeating our brutal enemies requires courage and clarity. Clarity begins by knowing the difference between good an evil. Yet, incredibly, many anti-Israel protesters choose to stand with evil. They stand with Hamas. They stand with rapists and murderers. They stand with people who came into the kibbutzim -- into a home -- the parents hid the children, the two babies, in a secret attic. They murdered the families -- the parents. They found the secret attic and then they murdered the babies. These protesters stand with them; they should be ashamed of themselves."

*Thunderous applause, standing ovation

This is 2003 Iraq War levels of state-approved disinformation. I feel nauseated.

It's must be like one long nightmare for Palestinians. It's akin to the Great Tribulation, and the politicians who claim to believe in such things are way too happy supporting Israel. I cannot imagine the US standing much longer, not after this and everything else this country has done to the world. It has to end.

Oh honey, the USA has been committing genocide for hundreds of years. This visit is a return to form, not some sudden heel turn.

  • a near-total genocide of Native American populations
  • a near-total genocide of the Native Hawaiian people (90% population loss following colonization)
  • eugenics programs that inspired Hitler (literally not even a joke. This is history.)
  • using black folks for medical experimentation without their consent (Tuskegee, etc)
  • creating terrorists out of American citizens using the CIA
  • constant ongoing state sponsored violence against minorities and the disabled
  • 6 million excess deaths caused by the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan
  • millions of deaths in Cuba directly caused by American economic terrorism
  • egregious human rights abuses. Read up on how Uyghurs in Xinjiang are treated. Really weird how when it happens to American working-class citizens, it’s suddenly not a human rights abuse anymore.

I was told here that voting blue would fix it all. Republicans brought this monster in, will the victorious DNC do anything about it after November besides… hold their applause?

I think we all know the answer. History will remember them as collaborators.

[-] Waveform@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

You're right, and it's horrifying that it continues. I guess I was just voicing a wish that it would end soon.

I also don't trust either party to fix any of these things. It's a sly game their playing, and sadly it's still working -_-

"Incredibly" indeed. I give no credit to his lies.

Israel is not going to stop until all the territory of British Mandate Palestine is theirs, and all non Jews are removed from it, one way or another. As an American, it's absolutely infuriating that my government is so committed to helping them do it.

[-] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

He specifically said in this speech that Israel would not resettle Gaza. It's maybe the first time we've seen him directly oppose the radical wing of his government that has advocated for it.

[-] TheDemonBuer@lemmy.world 44 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Well, Israel has proven that they are willing to build settlements in areas they are not supposed to, so forgive me if I don't take him at his word. But, maybe Israel is willing to give up that narrow strip of land, if they can have the rest of Mandatory Palestine. I'd believe that.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

He was lying. That's like breathing to fascists anywhere in the world, but especially the ones in Israel. If you like podcasts, I recommend you check out Bad Hasbara for hundreds of clear examples of this.

It's maybe the first time we've seen him directly oppose the radical wing of his government that has advocated for it.

He IS part of that radical wing when it comes to Gaza. What the fuck do you think he means by "total victory"?

Hitler: I want that thing!
UK: nooooOOOO—All right you can have that but no more.

Total victory sure sounds like a final solution. I wonder where he borrowed that rhetoric.

[-] razorwiregoatlick@lemmy.world 76 points 8 months ago

It’s crazy to me that this dick bag rolled up into our capital and started shit talking the American citizens. Fuck this murdering bastard.

[-] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 64 points 8 months ago

Fuck Netanyahu. I hope President Harris leaves him out to dry. Let him figure out how to defend his conservative shithole country from his rightfully furious neighbors.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

Well, she happened to have another appointement in her book, so she didn't have to sit right behind him all the time.

Yeah but being anti-genocide is the same as being anti-Semitic now.

Gross. Everything about him is gross. To me, he is the personification of every horrid Jewish stereotype. I can't wait for him to drop dead; he will not be missed.

[-] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 41 points 8 months ago

Patriotic Republicans who LOVE America AGREE with this Foreign War Criminal that Americans are Idiots!

[-] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 36 points 8 months ago

USA allows and celebrates a guy whose country is terrorising its neighbour to address Congress shortly after allowing another guy (Zelensky) whose country is being terrorised by its neighbour to address Congress.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 33 points 8 months ago

Right before they let him take to the podium, they should have read the names of the hundreds of UN employees his ~~army~~ bandits have killed so far. As a "quick" placeholder for all the innocent victims of this war.

[-] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 31 points 8 months ago

wow, what a huge piece of shit this guy is.

[-] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 26 points 8 months ago

Obligatory fuck this guy

[-] MeaanBeaan@lemmy.world 17 points 8 months ago

So when do we slam him back?

[-] Crikeste@lemm.ee 12 points 8 months ago

Since when is giving money and weapons to kill innocent people called ‘slamming’? Because that’s the only thing we do to Israel.

Gosh. I hope I never get denounced. That sounds horrible. I don't think I'd ever come back from that.

Should probably steer clear of the Civ games then.

if you are in the USA, make sure to not denounce a cop in the name of Jebus... apparently that is an instant invite to 3 bullets to the face

[-] raynethackery@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

How well does he think we react to people attacking our fellow citizens? I may hate my siblings but God help anyone that attacks them.
