Netanyahu is a corrupt, fascist criminal

[edhopper]

he is absolutely the worst leader Israel could have right now. His only path to stay out of jail is to stay in power.
The problem is his only way to stay in power is to keep the right wing fanatics in Israel happy. And they want Palestinian blood.
Like in this country, a hateful, lunatic minority are shaping a national agenda.

One hopes saner minds in Israel can reign him in and lead to a better and more humane strategy. There is supposedly a joint government now.

1. Let's stop arming them

[Charging Triceratops]

2. US to Bibi:

We won't send Israel a damned thing until you resign.

[Basic LA]

3. Let's stop arming them, seconded.

Why do we continue to do it? Is AIPAC so all powerful here?

[sarisataka]

7. Of course they are powerful

Jewish money runs the world, don't cha know

[rubbersole]

9. Money and lasers.

You forgot the space lasers.
And laptops. Oh, wait...that might be the Catholics. Or Moooslums...

[TheRealNorth]

12. Lets not kid ourselves

We talked about how the NRA controlled Republican politicians, and AIPAC is spending double this cycle what the NRA spent in 2016.

4. From what I hear, if there was an election today Bibi would be out

[multigraincracker]

5. Would his replacement be

better?
Could go either way.

[All Mixed Up]

6. Probably not. But maybe we could get someone in who at least appreciates the US.

It feels like Netanyahu really loves humiliating the Biden administration. Unfortunately, we're not doing anything about it.

[PatSeg]

11. Years ago, Netanyahu bragged,

"I have the United States wrapped around my little finger". He only appreciates the money and arms that he gets from us. If we object to anything he does, he pretty much just flicks us off.

[RAB910]

8. Benny Gantz (the front runner) is far from perfect but he would be better than Bibi

[The Mouth]

14. His replacement would be a chance for Hamas to release the hostages

Which is the *first* requirement for Israel to cease doing what it is doing.

[malaise]

10. THIS

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. It is Putinesque what Netanyahu is doing to Gaza and its people. . . . . . nt

[edhopper]

16. Stalinesque

[Scalded Nun]

15. Nothing new. He has always been what he shows himself to be now.

Trump Jr.

He will take his country down the toilet to save his amassed wealth and his ass from jail/accountability.

[shrike3]

17. I've been told his replacement could be even worse.

Awesome, right?

[edhopper]

18. Not if it were

Lapid or Gantz.

[shrike3]

19. My knowledge of Israeli politics is cursory at best.

However, I was told if Netanyahu's replacement is from the right, little will change. Hopefully, that won't happen.

[edhopper]

20. That is true

Netanyahu only rules because of a coalition from the far right. If there were an election and the liberal Parties won, Lapid of Gantz would be PM.

[shrike3]

21. I'll hope for the best.

Fingers crossed.

22. He is human garbage
