Ask someone to name a king or queen of Palestine or where the borders were drawn.

Seems to me that the Israelis know EXACTLY what to do about this "humanitarian crisis." Maybe Biden should check with them for ideas...

And Bibi’s response had better be, “FOAD, Brandon.”

Pro Palestinian protestor? Destruction of property is not protest. Carrying signs, doing sit-ins, mild civil disobedience are protests. That was just criminal destruction of something that can not ever be replaced.

Hopefully they have to pay restitution in addition to whatever jail time they serve .

4 hours in holding and a stern rebuke. That oughta show her.

My outrage at these events knows no bounds.

The Israel Defense Forces said Monday that troops have killed some 12,000 of Hamas’s estimated 30,000 gunmen in the Gaza Strip since war erupted on October 7

Hamas is also believed to have thousands of operatives who are seriously wounded and unable to fight.

Biden: Israeli operation in Rafah would be a red line
US President tells MSNBC that Netanyahu "must, must, must" pay more attention to preventing civilian casualties in Gaza.

Biden: "He (Netanyahu)** hurts Israel more than he protects her. This is a mistake."

What's he going to do? Attack Isreal? His words carry no weight. Even if he assassinated Bibi that wouldn't stop the war. It's not Bibi's war, it's Isreals.

The Knesset overwhelmingly approved the war cabinet. Does president Biden think this war is at Bibi 's whim? It's a unity government that has dropped everything else to deal with the war.

The US provides aid to Israel.

Netanyahu pledges to ignore Biden’s ‘red line’ and invade Rafah

https://www.washingtonexaminer...ne-and-invade-rafah/

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu brushed off President Joe Biden’s concerns and criticisms, vowing to move forward with Israel’s military occupation in Gaza.

Biden insisted on Saturday that the Israeli leader’s strategy for the country’s war against Hamas is “hurting Israel more than helping.” When asked about Rafah, he added, “It is a red line,” attempting to put pressure on Netanyahu to do more to protect Palestinians.

Netanyahu was asked the following day whether Israeli forces would push into Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip and a refuge for millions of Palestinians. “We’ll go there. We’re not going to leave. You know, I have a red line. You know what the red line is, that October 7 doesn’t happen again,” he said, referring to Hamas’s brutal massacre that killed about 1,200 Israelis and triggered the current conflict. “Never happens again.”

The prime minister even said he had the implicit backing of some Arab leaders, according to Politico. “They understand that and even agree with it quietly,” he said. “They understand Hamas is part of the Iranian terror axis.”

Biden has increased pressure on Netanyahu as the war in Gaza has persisted. “You can’t have another 30,000 Palestinians dead as a consequence of going after (Hamas),” the Democratic president added in his interview with MSNBC. “There are other ways to deal with Hamas.”

However, not only has the U.S. continued to supply weapons to Israel, with Biden being denounced by many Democrats and voting blocs for doing so, but it also appears his requests of Netanyahu are being promptly ignored. The Israeli leader’s comments on Sunday do not counteract that assumption, nor do they make Biden appear strong in his foreign endeavors, something at which his rivals will be sure to take aim.

The Mouse That Roared.

I watched a video of one of the hostages saying paleostinean civilians came across the border to kidnap them and sell them to hamas.

Sounds to me like there are no non-combatant civilians.

Tried to Google new for that. ^^^

Only a UK new agency was carrying the story and it mostly focused not on the trespassing or disruptions, but more on a protestor that got knocked out or had a medical emergency in the streets.

You'd think that a giant group of terrorist supporters storming and taking over a transportation would draw more attention from the news, but I guess that's just America today.

There's some more videos at the link including one of them trying to attack a vehicle, guess they are learning from antifa/BLM.

As was posted in the Road Rage thread, “I wonder why this sh*t doesn’t happen in Texas?”, he asked rhetoricallly.

Just like with blm or antifa, always in a big blue city where they are protected from citizens wrath.

U.S. intelligence agencies are claiming that they “expect” protests to bring down the Israeli government and replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been an obstacle to President Joe Biden’s plans for the Middle East.

The claim emerged in the latest “Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community,” and was published by both the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times Monday evening, suggesting a coordinated leak to the media.

The assessment says:

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has publicly stated his opposition to postwar diplomacy with the Palestinian Authority (PA) toward territorial compromise.
Netanyahu’s viability as leader as well as his governing coalition of far-right and ultraorthodox parties that pursued hardline policies on Palestinian and security issues may be in jeopardy. Distrust of Netanyahu’s ability to rule has deepened and broadened across the public from its already high levels before the war, and we expect large protests demanding his resignation and new elections. A different, more moderate government is a possibility.

Re: above ^^^

"...Netanyahu, who has been an obstacle to President Joe Biden’s plans for the Middle East..."

The hubris, the gaul, and if you'll excuse the cultural appropriation this once, The Chutzpa, of that clause.

The chief executive of an independent state on a wartime footing after an attack by 8th century savages, is AN OBSTACLE to a foreign office holder who is now kow-towing to supporters of those savages. The chief executive of a nation under siege is somehow an impediment to a dotards political ambitions while his citizens are held hostage in conditions I don't want to imagine.

It should be unfucking believable but to my great sadness I believe it.
