I think the biggest problem for people ,certainly the politicians, is that no one wants to delineate between Israel, the state and the Jewish people from the Bible. If you don’t support Israel 100%, then you’re an antisemite. Well, there are plenty of Jews in Israel that don’t necessarily support the policies going on right now and think it’s going to far. You’re mistaking the state of Israel as the preference of God. While the Bible says that the tribes of Israel are the children of God, you’re dealing with two separate issues here. The issue that is front and center right now is the policies of Benjamin Netanyahu and the state of Israel, as it relates to the people of Gaza, and whether you are witnessing a genocidal terror. If Israel had hit back after the attack in October and stopped, then possibly things could’ve been worked out maybe diplomatically. But it is my personal opinion that Benjamin Netanyahu actually welcomed this attack as the excuse to wipe out the people in Gaza. It wasn’t just that he wanted to go out against Hamas, he decided he had the right the end to look at everyone in Gaza as a part of Hamas or a potential terrorist in the making.
I can attest to the “subhuman view” claim. I have several Israeli friends and did a police mission to Israel. That unfortunately is a prevailing sentiment of many. It reminded me of stories from the US civil rights movement.
Good to bring up Zbig - Tri Lat - the Rockefellers and the idea of bringing Japan, and thus China into the Western New World order in the 60s/70s. It got rejected and never happened,
Israel: Netanyahu is purported to be something of a genius. So, has anyone put forth the following - Israel was purposely created to be the West Globalist outpost in the Middle East. That Netanyahu and those around him have recognized in the last 20 years that the US was no longer the Hegemonic power and that Globalism was unwinding? That without “authority” of the US/Britain/West Israel was left vulnerable and hanging…that the current war is “religious” for Israel (eschatological survival) and “political” for the Palestinians? In short, Israel’s leadership has been paying attention to what is happening and that with Globalism (ideology) in permanent retreat and all the serious players globally turning their backs on it, now was the last time for them to act? Throw in the pipeline that is supposed to come through Gaza as the “political” cover.
I have traveled to Israel and the Middle East......The distillation is simply that the average Palestinian who wants to live in peace is held hostage by extreme terrorist factions who constantly agitate the Israelis.
When the Israelis clamp down, the results are predictable, as the terrorists surround themselves with the innocents.
It seemed to me that the last President's Abraham Accords were a move in the right direction, but anything that T did was dismissed.
Now we are in another mess, worldwide, due to the current administrations policies ...war, war. Everything they touch turns to crap.

"But it is my personal opinion that Benjamin Netanyahu actually welcomed this attack"
Agreed.

That's the danger that Nietzsche pointed out: by fighting monsters, we often become them.
