    Why are we still referring to these human shit stains as settlers? Invaders? Genocidists? Murderers and thieves? Settlers gives them a legitimacy they lack.

      The word comes from settler colonialism, which means the colonists come steal the land and live on it instead of just enslave the people.

      Somehow people starter using the word “colonialist” instead of “settler” which is weird because settler sounds far too peaceful for these psychopathic Nazi colonists.

      It wasn’t even random “settlers”

      It was 7 of the most violent despicable ones, and the sanctions did nothing

      But Bibi told Biden to revoke the sanctions, so he did.

      By his own words over decades of political service, Biden has constantly reiterated that he’ll do what Israel asks because as a toddler his dad made him promise.

      It’s fucking insane that everyone just didn’t care over half a century

      If it comes down to Israel or America, Biden will always pick Israel. That’s where his loyalties lie because of a childhood promise a lifetime ago.

      There’s reasons why it took him over 30 years to win his first presidential primary, and this is one of the big ones.

      At this point netenyahoo is attempting to establish a caliphate, so terrorists seems a viable option.

        You can blame bibi all you want, this issue predates him. Scapegoating him only enables this problem to continue. Don’t get me wrong he sucks, but removing him will not drastically change the situation.

          “Antisemitism in Germany predated Hitler, scapegoating him only enables the problem to continue,” Nazis in the 40s probably. What a clown thing to say. He is the current tip of the genocidal spear known as Israel. Though I agree with you entirely that removing him won’t change Israel’s genocidal actions. That doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be tried at The Hague and put in prison for life.

          Ah, but shitting on Biden and the US at every opportunity is completely reasonable while talking bad about the guy who is actually pulling the trigger is fucking scapegoating!?

            Did you miss the part where Biden removed the sanctions on those settlers or something? Jesus fuck you people are insufferable.

              No, but the point is your hypocrisy. I never said that lifting the sanctions is right.
              But “Jesus fuck” would it never cross my mind to call the person who is ordering those atrocities in Gaza a scapegoat.

              Edit: Looks like Biden didn’t lift anything.

                He lifted the majority of the sanctions. There’s no impactful sanctions left anymore.
