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.⁠

Hardly any election in Israel’s history has carried such profound consequences. Israelis will face a choice that reaches far beyond party allegiance: what kind of country will they leave their children? After October 7 and three years of devastating wars, Israel’s security, democratic character, and promise as a Jewish homeland demand an unsparing national reckoning—one that confronts democratic erosion through judicial subversion, institutional capture, press intimidation, dissent suppression, minority disenfranchisement, unchecked executive power, perpetual warfare, and isolation.

Trump and Musk deliberately degraded Ukraine’s Starlink service to pressure Zelensky—undermining Ukraine’s defenses and exposing its civilians to deadly Russian attacks. Their justification makes this more outrageous: forcing Ukraine to accept an energy ceasefire it had already honored while Russia continued striking. This was not diplomacy but a blatant coercion, with Ukrainian lives as leverage. Who authorized it, what did they know, and who died as a result? Ukraine’s survival must never depend on a trillionaire’s whims or a corrupt president’s willingness to sacrifice Ukraine's defenses for political advantage. And who is the beneficiary? Russia, the West’s most adversarial enemy. Trump must pay the price in these mid-term elections. ... See MoreSee Less

That’s just wrong , nobody is safe from trump and musk after hearing they have now killed many including children in UKRAINE

Traitors

That is a war crime

I hope Russia destroys Ukraine. Russia has the diesel and America runs on diesel. Russia should be our strongest ally. What's Ukraine ever given to the US? Mounting debt? Europe isn't helping. Just foolish US pouring money into Ukraine and Israel when both of those countries do nothing for our national interests. They are like parasites always taking and wanting more. It would be in the whole world's best interest if both Ukraine and Israel disappear.

Murderers, along with their buddy,Vlad🤢🤮

"REPUBLlCANS" are "DESPlCABLE", "DISGUSTlNG", "EXCUSES" FOR HUMAN beings

The approximate date of the alleged incident involving DT in Moscow was November 8 or November 9, 2013. According to flight logs, social media records, and testimonies, Trump arrived in Moscow on the morning of Friday, November 8, 2013, to attend the Miss Universe pageant and departed on Sunday, November 10. The unverified Christopher Steele dossier—which first published these "pee tape" allegations in January 2017—claimed the event took place in the presidential suite of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel during this specific weekend visit. Trump has repeatedly and firmly denied the allegations, calling them "fake news" and asserting that he never even stayed overnight on that trip, though travel records later disproved his timeline denial.

Nope. That hoax was busted today.

Assholes

Z man keeps screwing over America

Maybe Europe should step up a bit and help Ukraine…… Ukraine is nowhere near the United States

False. Do not confuse Starlink with Starshield.

Obviously. The only thing Trump loves more than Putin and money is young girls.

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

God bless Israel!

Thas the man they need

BB is doing the right thing. The fact of the matter is there are no peace partners.

He stands on its ground to defend those innocent Israeli he didn't bow for those who want to destroy Israel instead he fought them right now they are tremble afraid of him you do me I do you u

🇮🇱💩🤮🤪🖕🇮🇱💩🤮🤪🖕

Netanyahu defends Israel. He defends Israelis. No other world leader has faced global hatred that's grown from vigorous propaganda and lies spread by islamists, western leftists and liberals and still maintains his position and authority with his head held high as the leader of the only Jewish nation in the world like BENJAMIN NETANYAHU!! Vote for Netanyahu!!!

How about prosecuting him and Trump.

Until my last breath, I will ALWAYS stand TALL and PROUD with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו, the elite Israeli Air Force, Israel Defense Forces, #ShinBet, The Mossad and ALL Israeli civilians, forevermore !! I LOVE Israel !! May God Bless and Protect Israel Always !! ❤️💙🇮🇱🙏🇮🇱💙❤️

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

BI BI IS NUMBER ONE

Only Bibi!

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

And imprisoned.

Do you have any idea how many israelis think exactly the same way as bibi the butcher?? Just remember, the military are the ones committing the genocide ,the family members of a huge section of the population,just like the US.

He must be arrested and sent to the Hague, tried for war crimes just like Nazi's!

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
