There is no "Standard" when it comes to Israel. America's death cult evangelicals will support Israel until their rapture, and Europe is still wracked with guilt over the second world war.
Israel will continue being a geocidal rogue nation.
It was never about the hostages, any hostages returned alive was just a bonus to Netanyahu, his end game ha been clear from day one and Fascist America will back him till the end.
Man the 80's and 90's when I was growing up were paradise in comparison. I felt your comment hard, I am genuinely having a hard time (and getting angry) at the insanity we're living.
That might do, as a start. I'm personally all for collective punishment, strip them of money to rebuild the destruction and right to return for the refugees who are stateless in Lebanon / Syria / Jordan. All illegal settlements to be transferred to the rightful owners of the land, no more alliya for Americans and Europeans until these issues are settled.
Obviously this is not going to happen, but a man can wish for some justice in this world.
Cruel and unusual punishments', both in the US and Gaza, the insanity of this cannot be understated. It's as if they're telling these bikers to go "let out your frustrations" Fuck Israel, Fuck the US administration.
Wake up and smell the coffee people, it's by design! It's unsurprising what's happening in America unfortunately. They've been made to believe the lie of trickle down economics.
A man can hope...
