In an alternate universe, there’s a version of post-10/7 Discourse where the world rallied behind the Israeli Left and democratic Palestinian liberationist orgs, brokered a ceasefire & hostage exchange, and toppled both Bibi AND Hamas from power. But no, we did THIS instead… 🙄
@MAdryaelTong The Israeli left? The one that believes in complete equality for all citizens, whatever their ethnicity? Which would be an essential core belief of any left-wing group anywhere? Where would one find such a thing in Israel?
@MAdryaelTong I want to cry. No joke!
@MAdryaelTong And they listened to civil society orgs and women instead of politicians.
@MAdryaelTong And what? Go back to the status quo of gradual ethnic cleansing and land theft and erasure of the Palestinians that’s been happening since 1947 before Netanyahu?
@MAdryaelTong Because it quickly became a movement for Jewish erasure, which it didn’t have to be. Israel isn’t going to disappear (or if it does, it will make Gaza look like a playground squabble), and refusing to ally with Israelis working against the occupation is counterproductive
@MAdryaelTong Hostage exchange? Toppled Hamas? With what flowers? What are you snorting?
@MAdryaelTong Isn't it amazing how particularly well 10/7 worked out for Bibi and Trump. I wonder if they both knew beforehand that a controlled attack for a pretext for genocide would have done all this? Supported genocide and fractured the US Left before an election. timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…
