It’s not overreach, it’s genocide. It’s not Netanyahu, it’s ‘israel’. It’s not complicated, it’s genocide. And no, Palestinians are not responsible for the starvation, you evil shill.

No more weapons to Israel is a principled demand, a legal obligation, & now a political necessity for any Democrat in office. Any Democrat who continues to stand with AIPAC’s fringe agenda of funding to Israel, & against their voters on the moral issue of our time, is inviting a primary challenge.

Screen shot from @theandreyx’s X with text:
“A few months ago I was sitting on a bench in Tel Aviv with a colleague, and an older Israeli man came up to us and asked if he can sit with us. We said yes, so he asked what we were working on. We said we're making a film about the West Bank.

"What do you think about the Arabs?", he asked. Instead of answering, I asked what he thought.

"A good Arab is a dead Arab", he answered.

This was said 5 minutes into the conversation, to a complete stranger. This is a normal thing to say in Israeli society, even in the hyper-liberal Tel Aviv.”

This is what a so called “ceasefire” with Israel looks like when the United States continues to illegally provide endless amounts of weapons to this apartheid state. A real ceasefire is only possible with an arms embargo.

IDF asshole:
These are not innocent people. The journalists affiliated with Hezbollah that Israel eliminated were also spies for Hezbollah, approaching our soldiers and then informing the terrorist organization where our soldiers were in real time. Similarly, on October 7, journalists affiliated with Hamas were eliminated because they were intelligence officers. Send greetings to all journalists affiliated with Hezbollah, for anyone who works for the organization should know that they are destined for death.
