You know who else ought to be scared shitless?

Benjamin Netanyahu. There's going to be a whole different attitude with the Harris administration on the Israel-Gaza problem.

He and TFG are cut from the same cloth: the only persons they really care about are themselves.

Bibi is using the conflict to stay in power.

They aren't married into backup-billionaire families (AFAIK) so lack that safety net, and the cult of personality just isn't that into them. And they certainly aren't competent at anything that doesn't involve nepotism, publicly anyway.

6. Seeing that Kamala made no reference to Palestinian statehood, Bibi should be happy.

Kamala referenced Palestinian self-determination, but NOT statehood.

That motherfucker needs to be thrown in a small cell with Trump, Putin, and Orban. One bucket for a toilet.

12. That speech kinda made it clear she isn't going to put up with his bullshit

But how she will be different is probably under wraps until she becomes president. My guess so as not to show incongruity with Biden.

14. Israelis need to force elections if Bibi won't call for them (yes, I know his Likudists remain strongly behind him)....

But, the far RW in Israel, like that in this country, does not represent the entire country--certainly not the traumatized and at-risk democracy that remains. If you support Bibi, then put me on "ignore." I support Israelis and THEIR future.
