Waiting for Trump to send Israel $8Billion in weapons for free probably. Biden made sure to stock Israel up before he got booted from the White House.
No point in feeding his ego.
Probably those people get banned by twitter? Check mastodon
God, you blueAnon libs are so angry about the ceasefire.
Looks like Israel isn't abiding by the ceasefire.
I remember a shitty N64 game called Rampage in which you would crush cities with your fists until you were bored with the game and move on to a better one. This “war” has been like watching an entitled shitty kid play Rampage, but he’s not bored yet.
Unrelated, but it's actually crazy how many ports that game had:

Thats one definition of genocide
I get they just do what they want but like, how is this possible if they agreed to a ceasefire? Was the agreement in bad faith?
Its as though they are going for the genocide highscore or something??
Not that Israel doesn't violate ceasefires all the time, but in this case, West Bank is not Gaza.
Thanks, I didnt realise there were terms on location, I thought it was just all together.
They used to be the same in 1948. After the nakba, the land of Palestine shrunk into two distinct, unconnected areas.
Yeah, Israel has stolen so much land from Palestine that it's now two different, unconnected areas run by different groups. West Bank is under permanent Israeli military occupation, and is being slowly ethnically cleansed by Israel moving in settlers and driving out the locals. A full 10% of the Israeli population lives in illegal settlements in West Bank, and they regularly commit pograms against the Palestinians living there with the support of the IDF.
Gaza managed to push Israel and it's settler colonies out, but in retaliation it's been under permanent blockade, and subject to a policy of "mowing the lawn" where Israel performed regular bombing runs against its civilian infrastructure to stop Gaza getting too developed. Of course, after October 7th they took the excuse to try and exterminate Gaza outright. While they didn't achieve that before the ceasefire, they did level basically every building and killed somewhere between 1 in 10 and 1 in 4 people living there.
I hope those who didn't vote or voted for trump in protest are happy...
Looks like he also removed pause on 2,000lbs bombs :(

Lol, as if Harris would have stopped this. BlueMAGA completely disconnected from reality
Aren't you glad your party didn't listen to them?
What leads you to think Genocide Joe or Kamala would be pushing back against this? Also, the 2k bomb thing under Biden was about OUR capacity to have enough of those, there was never a real pause because industrial capacity never lapsed afaik. Genocide Joe asked Reagan to kill more children in Lebanon in the 80's. He LOVED every drop of blood he bled from a quarter million or more Palestinians, his only regret is he didn't get more non-jew child blood.
Now trans people don’t exist, the brownshirts are back in force, and Palestine will be obliterated. To be honest, I don’t think protest voters pushed the vote very far to the right, so I’m mostly just poking fun
Trump has already done more to stop Palestine being obliterated than the Democrats did. The fact that you had the head in the sand for the entire last year doesn't change the facts.
What’d he claim credit for, this time?
He claimed credit for sending an envoy to Israel to actually use American leverage to procure a ceasefire. The actual terms of the Trump/Netanyahu deal are yet unknown.
If you don't believe Trumps narrative, then you have to come up with an alternate explanation as to why Netanyahu suddenly accepted the terms of the ceasefire deal that has been on the table since at least May 2023. Personally, I have not heard of a plausible alternate theory.
No, I don’t think I’m going to form opinions based on conjecture. That’s how one falls down a propaganda hole
I appreciate your skepticism, but if that's your burden of proof, then I'm unsure how you would ever form a political opinion. Its conjecture and propaganda all the way down, mate.
The most scientific approach one can take is look at all the evidence, form hypothesis and alternate hypothesis, and determine the likelihood of each.
I do not trust Trump, and I certainly do not believe he cares about Palestinians. But the only hypothesis that seems to fit the facts is "Trump envoy applied pressure, Bibi capitulated". But if anyone has an alternate theory I would be interested to hear it.
Ok, well the non-conjecture fact is that Trump's envoy secured a ceasefire.
conjecture
/kən-jĕk′chər/
noun
Opinion or judgment based on inconclusive or incomplete evidence; guesswork.
You sure are arrogant for someone who has been living in a cave.
Rude
I see you standing over a woman badly beaten in a hospital bed. [whiny voice] “boy! I hope you’re happy! You went and got yourself raped AND beaten for resisting that rape! There you were walking around in a short skirt, so it’s basically your fault you were raped! THEN you had the audacity to try to stop it, and you got yourself beaten half to death too! I hope you’re happy with yourself young lady!”
