Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attended President Trump’s New Year’s Eve party at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, on Wednesday night, days after the two leaders held a meeting where they discussed another potential attack on Iran. “At the invitation of US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his […]

Just casually ringing in the new year by ignoring Bibi's arrest warrant from the ICC.

The party of law and order, ladies and gentlemen.

Look how the USA treats the ICC judges:

‘It’s surreal’: US sanctions lock International Criminal Court judge out of daily life

The USA is actively and knowingly hostile to international law and order.

The Europeans let him fly through their air space and did nothing. Every western nation bar Spain and Ireland is basically complicit in the genocide.

[-] AnchoriteMagus@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Which is why we have to refuse to be quiet about it.

You don't understand, diplomacy takes time and small steps. You can't take such a drastic measure in public or they will stop listening altogether. They are doing everything they can behind closed doors to drag this out as long as possible and wait it out until it is out of the news cycle and everything goes back to normal. Meaning harassing Palestinians every day and crying foul when they fight back

EU governments are making bank out of Israel killing Palestinians, why would they arrest him?

[-] ShellMonkey@piefed.socdojo.com 29 points 7 months ago

Gee, I'm so glad that we elected the guy who was gonna stop the massacre and put Israel in their place...

[-] riverSpirit@thelemmy.club 12 points 7 months ago

That was neither option because Kamala chose AIPAC lobbying over basic humanity.

Irregardless, the number of single issue voters on genocide was such a shockingly low amount of lost votes that it doesn’t matter, but for some reason people like to bring it up as the issue she lost.🤔

Yeah, nah. That shit doesn't pass the pub test.

One option has Trump demolishing Gaza for a Trump resort.

The other wasn't perfect, but wasn't aiming to demolish Gaza like Trump was, but you abstained to ensure Trump got voted in.

If you didn't vote, this is what YOU voted for.

Both options have genocide of the Palestinian.

Trump wanted to build a tacky casino land, Harris wants to let Netanyahu use it for Lebensraum.

Who cares about how the physical land is used once the people are murdered. Only a lib could be concerned about the property.

[-] uienia@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Again, complete bull-fucking-shit.

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

Genocide Joe stopped ✅

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 7 months ago

Put this piece of shit in jail.

[-] petrjanda@gonzo.markets 15 points 7 months ago

Two criminals celebrating together. So cute

[-] FarrellPerks@feddit.uk 12 points 7 months ago

Turns out they were right about criminals associating with one another.

Both should be in some cell somewhere.

Oh hey a Malania appearance, wonder what they're trying to cover up this time

[-] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Isn't there still some antisemitism in MAGA? And the 'religious voter' bloc is shrinking almost as fast as Israel's reputation.

I feel like being this cozy with Netanyahu is going to backfire for Trump.

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 12 points 7 months ago

Antisemitism and Zionism aren't mutually exclusive at all. If anything Western antisemites tend to like Zionism because they don't want Jews in their own backyard.

[-] AnchoriteMagus@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Exactly. Zionism dovetails nicely with the white nationalist desire for separate ethnostates.

Edit - not to mention that the Jews must control Jerusalem in order for the Christian Dominionists to ensure that Armageddon happens.

This might explain why there’s an enormous great white shark reported heading to Florida.
