They never wanted peace. All the previously negociated agreements were just a charade.

    Just a little more "living space" for the Israeli people.

    I wish the common response was 'If Palestinians aren't getting their own state get ready to share yours.'

    Fuck two states. From the river to the sea, make everyone equal and free.

    here is a fundamental reality: if the choice is one state, Israel can either be Jewish or democratic – it cannot be both

    So people who believe in democracy should believe that isn’t the place for a state that wants to deem itself “Jewish” then.

    And any halfway decent human being would say that this minister is a monster who belongs behind bars for the rest of its miserable life.

    Smotrich would be considered a terrorist pretty much anywhere else. He’s a huge bigoted piece of shit.

    According to former Shin Bet deputy chief Yitzhak Ilan, who interrogated him at the time, during the protests against the Israeli disengagement from Gaza, Smotrich was arrested in 2005 while in possession of 700 litres of gasoline on suspicion of participating in an attempt to blow up Ayalon Highway, a major arterial road. He was held in jail for three weeks but not charged after refusing to speak. This account was corroborated by Dvir Kariv, who was an agent with Shin Bet at the time.

    In 2006 he helped organize the "Beast Parade" as part of protests against a gay pride parade in Jerusalem, although he later admitted regret at the incident.

    He is co-founder of the NGO Regavim, which monitors and pursues legal action in the Israeli court system against constructions undertaken by Palestinians, Bedouins, and other Arabs in Israel and the West Bank without Israeli permits.

    I think that pretty much applies to all members of the Israeli government. Take Netanyahu, for example, who not only has had an arrest warrant issued against him by the International Criminal Court for ages, but is also on trial for massive corruption, which is why he is interested in maintaining the state of war for as long as possible, even though it is not a war, of course, but genocide. But Netanyahu doesn't care; he's just trying to delay his trial—which is typical of this regime: they are criminals who will literally walk over dead bodies.

    Polls show its the government and the vast majority of the population as well.
    87% supporting continuing the gaza "operation". 85% support the job Netenyahu has been doing. 56% want to deport every non-jewish person currently living inside Israel-- just in everyday israel. 48% want to kill every living thing in gaza and the west bank. Just murder everyone.

    We should stop pretending this is a problem of just a few war criminals. Its millions of war criminals.

    This is Zionism at its best

    You heard it, folks. Here's hoping this shit ends soon enough that these assholes, not their grand children, can be expelled from their stolen homes.

    It was never about getting the hostages back.
