Israel’s Fateful Election: A Nation On The Brink Israel’s next election will decide far more than who governs. It will help determine whether the country can reclaim its democratic foundations, restore its international standing, and fulfill its founding... Continue reading

The Narcissist In Chief

When a president confuses personal loyalty with public duty and self-glorification with leadership, democracy pays the price. Trump’s conduct reveals a disgusting and disturbing pattern: he put the presidency in service of his ego rather than the nation The damage Trump has inflicted on this country and the world is incalculable. The irony is staggering:…

The Slow-Motion Erasure Of The West Bank

A people are being erased not in a single cataclysm, but through daily terror: bulldozers, armed settlers, night raids, demolished homes, and stolen water. The West Bank’s suffering is not a security policy—it is a warning of Israel’s own moral collapse There are crimes that arrive with explosions, and crimes that advance quietly—through a bulldozer…

Gaza Shattered the Myth of the “Most Moral Army”

Israel’s claim that the IDF is “the most moral army in the world” did not survive Gaza. What emerged was not moral exceptionalism, but a machinery of devastation so vast that the slogan now stands as an indictment—of power without restraint and conscience without consequences One of the most consistent claims Israel has made over…

The Unflinching Daily Horror In The West Bank

More often than not, I find myself at a loss for words to convey Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the relentless havoc that the Israeli government enables settlers to inflict upon Palestinians in the West Bank. Rather than write yet another article expressing my outrage and disgust, I chose to speak in a more immediate…

The Netanyahu government`s policies of dispossession, widespread destruction, displacement, killings, and terror against Palestinian civilians betray the moral inheritance of Judaism. They endanger Jews worldwide by creating the poisonous impression that all Jews are complicit in Israel’s atrocities and giving unprecedented rise to antisemitism.

Sudan is facing one of the world`s worst humanitarian catastrophes, yet millions of civilians remain without adequate protection. Since the conflict erupted in April 2023, tens of thousands have been killed, more than 10.5 million people have been displaced within the country, and millions more have fled across borders.

Since 2023, nearly 270,000 Israelis have emigrated from Israel, according to a study from Tel Aviv University—an accelerating brain drain that weakens the country’s future. They are not fleeing insecurity or economic uncertainty. Many are abandoning a state sinking ever deeper into moral catastrophe resulting from its malicious devastation of Gaza and the never-ending dispossession of Palestinians in the West Bank.⁠

Netanyahu’s determination to remain in power poses a profound danger to Israel. Could he attack Iran, inflame the West Bank, or invoke a national emergency to paralyze politics and pressure opponents into a unity government? Israelis must confront these possibilities before another crisis becomes his lifeline. No leader’s political survival can justify sacrificing a nation’s security, democracy, or future. The opposition must refuse to let fear become an instrument of manipulation. The public must demand accountability, not another coalition built around one man’s grip on power. Israel’s future must not become the price of Netanyahu’s survival. ... See MoreSee Less

BI BI IS NUMBER ONE

Only Bibi!

Palestine territory , in early history called Canaan, has existed for 10 000 years. During that time hundreds of civilisations have lived there. Pathians, Murabits, Jebusuites, Philistines, Canaanites, Greeks, Romans, Christians, Arabs, Byzantines, Ottomans and Jews at the end of the Bronze Age 3500 years ago. In this Instance Palestine is not the exclusive land of Jews like the Zionists pretend. And Israel has absolutely no more right to exist than any other civilizations that lived there. After the Belfour declaration in 1917, Zionists have been killing the Native Indigenous population to steal their land under some religious scriptures. In the late 70s, to protect their population and land after having lost 80% of their territory, we saw the emergence of Palestinian Resistance groups like PLO, Fatah, Hamas. As an impartial observer, I started reading about the conflict and realized the gross injustice being committed. For those willing to learn I would refer them to Jewish Intellectuals Historians on the subject. Dr Avi Schlaim, Dr Ilan Pappe, Dr Noam Chomsky, Dr Omer Bartov , Dr Howard Zinn and Palestinian professor Dr Edward Said. After having reviewed their literature based on history , not Zionist propaganda, you will have a better understanding of the situation. Rand McNally publications Palestine Map 1930

Netanyahu is a hero for Israel, no question. .Israel demands strength not weakness, not hesitation.

Yeah if you want to make Israel a gentle woke country that would be literally destroyed. Bebe is a strong leader that Israel must have to exist!

Benjamin Netanyahu is a piece of shit. He knew October 7 was coming and let it happen because it fit his agenda. Black flag. Fuck Israel well Netanyahu is in charge. Just like Trump he must go…

Elect him and he continues to expedite Israel's end. Don't elect him and see that he was 1 part of the whole racist colonial apartheid system. Israel is not a country nor a state and has no defined borders, its just a project and all projects must end.

Send him to the Hague

Even whe he is gone tiny hat trump will honor all that Israel has done to the US They will just put another one just as bad or worse than Bibi

Nah, leave him there, so he can finish the job of destroying that scummy country

Netanyahu is like Hitler. He will lead Israel to constant war and ruin with his genocidal crimes.

Bibi is Israel... The people know it... And will elect him...

Of all the Trump administration’s cruelties, few are more appalling than detaining children—even one-year-olds—without their parents, then bringing them before judges without attorneys. Children too young to understand the proceedings are asked whether they will leave “voluntarily.” What meaning can consent have for a child who cannot even speak? This is not immigration enforcement; it is cruelty inflicted on the defenseless. A government that subjects children to this ordeal betrays the values it claims to uphold. How can America call itself a nation of justice while making its most vulnerable children face the machinery of deportation alone? ... See MoreSee Less

Send them home to their families

GOD BLESS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND ALL ICE AGENTS PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK

now tell the whole story

Trump has issued unlawful and unconstitutional orders for immigration enforcement that also violate international law. ICE/CBP agents follow Trump's orders with brutality, cruelty, abuse and neglect, violations of immigrants and citizens constitutional rights, and even murder. Those points are not liberal or Democratic talking points. My points are based upon facts and logic and are well documented. Constitutional scholars, legal experts, and human rights organizations have been explaining the details that prove my points.

So his parents abandoned him and you want to blame the US? You’re retarded.

Are you seriously posting this crap

Got evidence, or just a good AI picture?

Yeah, you’re sure let them out the door just like the Biden administration and all those hundreds of thousands of children that got turned into corn porn, raped and murdered and everything but that’s what Democrats enjoy. They’re just sad that they couldn’t rip it out of her womb while it was still there.

Why don’t you have an issue with the parents who allow the child to be there by themselves?

Since you said it, now please provide proof that a 1-year old was alone in a court room being asked this question.

Horrible selfish parents and worse home country

FAKE NEWS!!!! this only proves Trump right about the media being the enemy of the people. MAGA!!! 🤟🏻😎

Rush them to their families!!!! NOW

Illegal criminal parents cruelty

Blame the parents that send him here

Not true. Follow the law folks. We’re done tolerating your bad behavior. 🇺🇸

52.2% maga Considered violence justified for at least one surveyed political objective Considered violence justified for at least one surveyed political objective Source: 2025 national survey, published in 2026. Endorsing violence does not necessarily mean committing violence. The central psychological concern is that dehumanization, reduced empathy, and treating suffering as deserved can make harmful treatment of others easier to justify. Research identifies these mechanisms, while individual motives and behavior still vary.

Why did his family not take him with them ? My parents wouldn't have let me out of their sight

Why is there a one year old? Why are they not returned to their country to his family.

From what I can find they are here unaccompanied by a parent! Most likely brought here by human traffickers to be sold! We can’t just send them back to there parents without a trial because islamrats would scream due process! So the child is made to stay here till they go to court and a judge deport them! Talking about sad democrats should be ashamed!

Young voters’ disillusionment with Trump and the Republican Party is an opening Democrats cannot squander. Inflation, economic insecurity, the Epstein files, misogyny, war with Iran, arbitrary deportations, and cuts to aid for the poorest demand more than outrage—they demand turnout. Democrats must organize relentlessly, community by community, and give young Americans compelling reasons to vote—not merely against Trump, but for a better future. Discontent alone wins nothing. Ballots determine who governs. To reclaim the House and compete for the Senate, Democrats must turn youthful frustration into sustained participation. The stakes are enormous; no voter, no community, and no organizing opportunity can be neglected. ... See MoreSee Less

Trump’s renewed insistence that the 2020 election was stolen is no mere obsession—it is preparation to delegitimize the midterms. Fearing the loss of the House, he is laying the groundwork to brand defeat as fraud. Democrats must not let that lie take root. Elected officials, candidates, and citizens must confront it relentlessly—on every platform, through every outlet, in every community. The message must be unmistakable: losing an election does not make it stolen. Silence is not restraint; it is surrendering the public narrative to a man determined to make Americans distrust any election he cannot win. ... See MoreSee Less
