Israel’s war in Gaza is chipping away at so much of what we – in the United States but also internationally – had agreed upon as acceptable, from the rules governing our freedom of speech to the very laws of armed conflict. It seems no exaggeration to say that the foundation of the international order of the last 77 years is threatened by this change in the obligations governing our legal and political responsibilities to each other.

    Israel does not have a future after this. They’re removing their own credibility, and the world knows it. They’re nothing but a rogue state at this point, waiting to be put to sleep like a rabid dog.

    Like a dying star undergoing supernova. A rampant destruction at the end.

        I bet they are grabbing by the balls most of those states with something. If that is the case, it won’t last for long.

        The US backs Israel no matter what. However the current situation is more difficult within the EU. Suspending the trade agreement with Israel is relativly possible. At the same time Israel being convicted of genocide, would basically end any sort of moral argument made in countries like Germany. Also the US is a huge reason to be more Israel friendly and that relationship has some issues.

        Israel attacking Iran was celebrated in countries like Syria too. Not exactly a rarer stance in the Arab world too.

          Syrians hate Iran but hate Israel harder. If EU can still back up Ukraine despite trump siding with Russia, they can stop supporting Israel too. There is no excuse at all for Europe. The strongest European countries has zero issue with Israel they just like to pretend
