I'd like to just say that across the long long history of The Jews, the overwhelming majority of Jews have been unbelievably, incredibly, grindingly poor, levels of poverty and deportation that are hard for the 21st century American mind to really wrap our heads around

Amy Madigan wins Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Weapons

This is the exact same argument that Bernie made against AOC, Tlaib, Omar and Bowman calling Israel an apartheid state in May 2021, but neither Bernie nor Shapiro seem to be disputing the actual racial structure in Israel's rule over Palestinians. They just think it's bad to say it out loud.
you know, i am actually quite sympathetic to jewish inhabitants of israel/palestine wanting to live *there* specifically, regardless of where their ancestors are from. i just dont think they get to select who is enfranchised in order to maintain a particular ethnic composition of that state
Undercover Israeli soldiers in the occupied West Bank shot and killed a Palestinian couple in their car and two of their children, aged five and seven.
Khaled, the oldest child who survived, recounted that the soldier declared "we killed dogs", then took him out of the car, and beat him.
this more than anything is why I think a Dem Tea Party is very much in the cards—party regulars are so mad at stalwart liberal incumbents they're close to denying them ballot access before voters even get a say
More important than any of this is the fact that the Israelis are actually correct based on the historical evidence that the US does not condition anything on Israeli behavior and quite frankly may not ever.
The Americans established a pretty clear incentive structure by repeatedly affirming that the escalation ladder goes only one way.
Gideon Levy had an article in Haaretz recently with the title "Everyone In This Country Has Gone Insane". So, that's how that's going.
my first encounter with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was taking an airport shuttle with my family and an Israeli guy at age nine and the guy thinking that the wisdom he needed to impart to me was that Arabs were worse than animals, a point he belabored until my dad told him to shut up
i think that the essential issue is that the Israeli electorate is psychotic to a degree the average American could not possibly understand
No, you see, they were only there to support the troops who raped a man with a knife
Very on-brand for Gingrich to seek out a new, younger canal the moment the current canal starts having health problems
