Netanyahu gave a speech at the UN general assembly. Most people walked out. The place was only about 1/4 full when he took the podium. A large crowd entered the gallery up above. Apparently he brought his own audience to clap for him. Remember, the General Assembly are the diplomatic representatives from all the countries of the world. This expresses the general view of Israel worldwide.

He claimed Hezbollah "put a missile in every kitchen, a rocket in every garage." This is apparently a pretext to strike at all civilian targets in Lebanon (many recent airstrikes by the IDF have hit weapons caches as evidenced by many secondary explosions and/or missiles flying wildly out from the site bombed, I don't dispute that, but in every kitchen? in every garage?)

They levelled 6 apartment buildings in Beirut claiming there were military underneath, and that the apartment buildings were "human shields". Despite whether or not there were military underneath (this is still to be determined), it is a war crime to strike that location given the massive civilian deaths it caused.

Remember, military officers can go home to their wives and children at night. That does not mean they are using their families as human shields. N12 News in Israel claims the strike killed Zeinab Nasrallah (Hassan Nasrallah's daughter), indicating that this was likely Hassan Nasrallah's residence and not a military installation.

Netanyahu does not care about war crimes anymore because he is already a war criminal. What incentive does he have now to avoid further war crimes? None. He continues to trash Israel's international standing, turning Israel into a recidivist terrorist state.

Well, he is doing everything right; moreover, this is generally approved by the U.S., so there will be no economic consequences for Israel from what he is doing.

Again, he can be understood here. If someone like Putin is forced to gradually increase the intensity of action simply because Ukrainians and Russians are essentially the same, then there are no Jews among Hezbollah at all, and Netanyahu can immediately play big.

No, he is not doing everything right. He is dooming Israel. He has made enemies with most of the world, which sees Israel as an extremist terrorist state the threatens the world and needs to be put down, just like Islamic State needs to be put down, for indeed the same reasons... the fact that they are terrorists without restraint on the use of power and without regard to non-Jewish human life, without respect for national sovereignty or international rules (like consulates) assassinating anything anywhere. This is more dangerous than the extreme Islamists, and more dangerous than Hitler who did not have nukes.

I feel sick about the innocent Jews in Israel that will suffer the backlash of these horrific acts of terror, and I recommend that they leave Israel for the time being at least.

💯 digging his own 🕳️

Israel will successfully achieve all of their current goals in Southern Lebanon, Gaza and the West Bank while creating the exact conditions that will necessitate further action in the future allowing them to take even more territory. They will also claim defeat and victimhood while doing so and their enemies will claim victory.

Also, presenting one of those innocent Israelis:

Israel is not a nation or a State - it was always a terrorist organization

anyone living in Israel is volunteering to be a human shield

the idea that Jews need Israel to escape antisemitism is beyond laughable because Jews are the most privileged group of people in both US, Europe, Russia and Ukraine.

Israelis are Terrorists. period end of discussion.

with all the money they get from America they could have paid every single Palestinian and Lebanese to leave - but they prefer to bomb them instead because they are Demons in Human Form

Well, if we put aside your pacifist slogans, what's his mistake? He effectively demonstrates military power, he's a partner of the U.S., he expands Israel's sphere of influence, and physically eliminates the enemy population.

He is killing big amounts of civilians, people around the whole world hates Netanyahu and Israel and their population will have to pay the price in the future.

Winners write the history.

Bitcoin Genesis block chief. Forever enshrined.

his mistake? letting October 7th happen when several intellegence agencies warned Mossad at least two week prior and months before.

Using Jews as humans shields is his tactic to start genocidal wars? sounds on brand.

A prime minister hated by his own people, let alone other people and countries from around the world, is doing everything right? come on, you don’t have to be silly.

People often don't like those who do the dirty work for them.
