Here's hoping Kamela can stand up better to Netanyahu. No doubt Netanyahu will rub her the wrong way, no bear hugs expected there.

There are countries that support the Palestinians. Maleysia and Indonesia have offered and are preparing to send peacekeeping forces to Gaza. However they will only do that under UN mandate and Palestinian approval. The former will likely be blocked by US veto.

Turkey has crippled the construction industry in Israel with trade sanctions, Columbia just halted all coal exports to Israel. And the BDS movement is having a significant effect on Israel's economy. Divestment works.

Brain drain is happening as well. Over half a million people have reportedly left Israel since Oct 7, most have dual citizenship so it's easier to pack up and leave. And more want to leave

This leads to the extremists becoming a higher percentage in the country while the economy keeps devolving. Israel is on a self destruct course. It's not just in Palestinian interest to get a permanent ceasefire and solution, Israel is not going to survive either if things don't change.

I'm hoping the student protest movement will continue. Divestment is as good as sanctions. Problem is the USA will keep footing the bill :/ Already over $100 per tax paying American invested in blowing up children.

Trump will just sanction the International Criminal Court...again and it will go away.  Speaking of which if Trump is telling Israel not to do a ceasefire until after the election, that seems like something the ICC would want to look into before they get sanctioned.

Here's how you fix the foreign policy strategy of Israel and Ukraine. You swap the foreign policy enforced on them both.

I.E. Right now, Ukraine is the one with dozens of stupid restrictions on them, while Israel is the one with zero and does whatever the fuck it wants, they need to be swapped round given Ukraine has consistently proven itself to us as a reliable, a sensible ally which follows international law while Israel has consistently shown itself to us to be an ally which doesn't give a fuck about our opinions, laws and has no respect for us.

Harris is still VP though. I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt because she doesn't set foreign policy and she's not going to make a major change to foreign policy while Biden is still president and go completely against him and sadly, it would be political suicide for Harris to go too hard on Israel before she's even president. They have too much power, influence and there's still a large pro-Israel voting base which Republicans would dive right on, it's harder for them to dive onto the Pro-Palestine crowd because they'd look like massive hypocrites and because Trump has already gone around saying he'd be a big supporter of Israel and deport any "pro-Hamas" aka Palestinians, protesters.

I think we need to wait until Harris actually wins to start flinging shit at her if she makes no changes, Imo.

It's on Biden to make sure this shit doesn't blow up before November though and sort this shit out. He needs to be tougher on Israel.

Don’t like Western values and wish to return to a “traditional” way of life? Putin and Morher Russia have you covered! 

Welcome to Russia, here's your boots and gun hop on that bus on your way to being cannon fodder, err fighting Ukraine.

I'd pay Alex Jones to fuck off to Russia.

Biden did so as well, only in a more sneaky way, pressuring the UK to block the ICC arrest warrants. While the UK might back off now, it gave the Israel lobby the time to get more western countries to hop on the bandwagon to challenge the ICC.

Not that it matters much, ICC warrants will just be ignored like the ICJ rulings on the West Bank Occupation as long as the US holds veto power at the UNSC.

Hence it doesn't matter much for Gaza whether Trump or Biden is in office. Trump might actually be better as he's not a smooth liar like Biden. Biden is somehow still managing to make the Western press believe he's working hard on a ceasefire. He's only working hard to hold off Iran for now.

Amazing how much Russia and Israel have in common... Or rather Putin and Netanyahu. Welcome to Israel, oh as part of your citizen ship you only have to serve (now) 36 months in the military raiding the West Bank or bomb Gaza. The difference is, you get better 'toys' and are 'fighting' mostly civilians.

@Ryuu96 Yes that would be a good call, yet Israel will continue to ignore any restrictions. Don't go into Rafah remember. Biden's red line...

I'm hopeful Harris will be better, lift restrictions on Ukraine and put actual conditions on continued 'ironclad' support. But I have my doubts. It's great the Harris campaign raised so much money in such a short time, or maybe it isn't. It always comes with strings attached. Who are the donors, what do they want in return. Politics is all for sale in the US :/

The DNC delegate state roll call was a whole frikkin party. That just doesn't happen.

Then they did a live event from an arena inside a live event at an arena. That just doesn't happen.

Maybe they'll do better than this chucklefuck who uprooted his family from Canada to Russia.
