General Discussion

In response to a poster who said they find it hard to continue to support ISRAEL, you say that nobody here supported NETANYAHU. And asking for proof that they did.

Where is the logic, or the good faith?

This "argument" irks me because I see the intent behind it and it only serves to further entrench Israel's impunity. It's that impunity, decades-long but especially virulent during this war on Gaza's kids and civilians, that has led to the unspeakable suffering in Gaza for nearly two years.

As a corollary of course, it's a face-saving device - an attempt at impunity, if you will - for Israel's defenders now that they've run out of excuses for Israel's cruel and lawless behaviour. They can now just say oh no, I never supported this, I despise Netanyahu! But the facts speak for themselves. They not only supported it, they excused and enabled it and worked very hard at it too.
