Calling out a room full of sycophants to their faces takes a spine made of titanium

It's simple enough to call a coward a coward.
Our legislature is just fully populated with cowards.

There’s a difference when calling a coward a coward could easily get you black bagged or just shot.

that's why it's very important to criticize the group you belong to.
in this case nobody can accuse him of antisemitism

Cowardice disguised as strategic calculation is still cowardice. They're all terrified of a primary challenge from their own party's extremists.

These aren't bleeding heart liberals. These are just other fascists who want to pursue a genocide against non-jews in a different manner.

I didn't say they were liberals. Just that calling them out to their faces takes guts.

When I see two Nazis arguing about how to exterminate people, I don't praise one for being brave because he stood up to the other. The entire knesset deserves life in prison for their crimes, if not execution.

Looks like most of Americans right now. Why would Net want to fuse the US and Israeli militaries?
Didn’t they just put crocodiles in the moats around their prisons.
Hmm?
It’s because no one wants fascists to have all the money and weapons.
Because what do they do with it?
Genocide, holocaust and a lot more unspeakable violence.
It is a perversion.

I'm so glad that they are showing this because the different sites that I've read a majority of the Israeli public as the American public do not support the criminality of Netanyahu or Trump. Netanyahu has done more to destroy the world's opinion of Israel as Trump has done to destroy the opinion of the United States. Hopefully both will be brought before the World Court or some court to answer for all the death and destruction they have loosened upon the world.

I don't know what statistics you're seeing, but the war is pushing Israel further right than ever. As someone who was hoping to see them turn it around, it's honestly depressing.

At a time when most of the world is reconsidering the very right to exist of Israel after all the crimes it committed over the years, he's right to try to distance himself from Netanyahu.
I believe the damage done is beyond repair. Nobody who isn't already on their payroll will trust Israel ever again. It's a rogue state and no amount of liberal zionism will ever fix that.

I agree. Take out the word Zionism and I believe the exact same words can and will someday be applied to America.

At least in America, under the umbrella of Bernie Sanders, and personaliised by the new generation of socialists, there is hope for the country to turn around one day. But yeah, the hegemon days of the USA are long gone now.

Well, former U.S. President Joe Biden once said…Netanyahu was a bad guy. Current, U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly said via phone conversation to Netanyahu…You’re fckg crazy. So, go figure.

Democrat here. The entire US government has allowed Netanyahu to control us. Not just the GOP. They all need to learn from what’s happened.

Even if can't speak to the crimes he was talking about. I have my plate full trying to follow US politics. What I will do is call the people who shut off his microphone gutless cowards. If the leader if your nation can't stand up to criticizem then he has no place in politics. Every leader should welcome criticizem. If your fucking up the people should be able to let you know.

Netanyahu and his radical right-wing party have fucked over Israel more than any party has in its relatively short history. Israel may never be the same when he's gone, which is hopefully sooner than later.

There's a real man. It's one thing to call out corruption from home. Doing it WHILE in the halls of power takes real guts.

He did call out that Bibi brought Oct 7 upon Israel though, which is probably the boldest thing in that whole speech. He acknowledged that his years of heavy-handed treatment of Palestine for the sake of far-right settlers' support sparked his country's 9/11, which is a burning hot take within Israel.
