That f'ing Netanyahu [View all]

Now Netanyahu has escalated the war in the Middle East to include major air strikes into Lebanon. He also hints that this is just the beginning.

The US needs to decouple from that asshole. He’s just another Trump. He’s using his hold on the Israeli government to block investigations and prosecutions for malfeseance and stay out of jail.

I don’t know how we do it. The situation in that region is so complex that a solution is way above my pay grade.

I do know that innocents in Palestine and Gaza and Lebanon don’t deserve the rain of fire, the pain and heartache that the out of control leaders of that region cause. F Netanyahu and his hard line henchmen. And F Hamas and Hezbollah too.
