US Senators posing for photos with war criminal Netanyahu

Last edited Tue Jul 15, 2025, 10:35 PM - Edit history (1)

Take a look, US Senators including Democrats.

The explanation is that they discussed Gaza. Fine. They should have told him that all military assistance has ended and walked out the door.
No need to take a chummy photo while children are being slaughtered

And the fact that you, Ultralite001, feel the need to indicate that you’re not an anti-Semite, is very sad. Being against a war criminal - regardless of their religion or which country he heads - doesn’t require an explanation!

As we say here politely, this article is shibai.

Please take all your anger at these Dems and put it to use winning the next election, and the ones following, so we will not continue to be powerless in the House and Senate and Presidency. We are powerless there now BECAUSE we allow ourselves to stand by and not vote because ____ insert hot button anger issue here.

Gaza is a living nightmare, our compliance and actual military support is our shame! Netanyahu deserves no respect. Fact. If they were talking about Gaza, which we can take as truth to the degree they have earned our trust, then the author is weighing substance less than a take on the look if the thing, a PR right hook. We do not know what they discussed or how the conversations went. Our electeds are working their hearts out in a whole new environment in which there are constant DEATH THREATS already. And threats to their families, now, on the daily.

I don’t trust this source and I find the argument designed to divide us. Well, it worked so well in Michigan last time…

Yes, Netanyahu should be arrested when he gets off the plane. Do we have the power to do that? No, we do not.

If we’re not going to talk to Netanyahu about how to end the unimagineable torture and murder and straight up genocide in broad daylight in Gaza, who the hell would we talk to about it? And uf we would not meet him to push him to change, do we imagine this author would approve? Should they not do their jobs and fimd out? No.

Does the author (not you OP) want to set Demsʻ hair afire about Corey Booker and Adam Schiff for Christʻs sakes? Booker is being brutally brigaded for being in a photograph as if nothing he has not done nor will ever do could ever be enough, with a righteous fire of the view from a comfy armchair. Please.
