Would be great if the Democrats tried to differentiate themselves from Trump regarding israel.
It's like they're one upping each other on who loves israel most.
Jeb Bush's wet dream
You almost realized the Dems shouldn't be building the wall. Almost. Grind those gears a bit more before commenting.
Haven't heard that before but Elon Musk and Zuckerberg might be in some trouble too if that's true.
If anyone applied the law pertaining israel that is.
Humor is not a requirement for a meme. Invoking strong feelings moreso.

What a long comment without any content on the video. Amazing.
Ended it by pulling random ad-hominems out of thin air too very impressive. You're from Russia right?
The Israeli prime minister's meeting with Donald Trump came after Benjamin Netanyahu held talks with vice president Kamala Harris, after which she said she will "not be silent" over suffering in Gaza.
Donald Trump hosted Benjamin Netanyahu at his Florida resort as he dismissed reports of tensions between the pair and attacked Kamala Harris's "disrespectful" comments about the Gaza war.
The former US president welcomed the Israeli prime minister to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach for their first meeting since September 2020.
The Republican presidential nominee and Mr Netanyahu have reportedly been at odds since the Israeli PM congratulated Joe Biden for his victory in the 2020 presidential election, which Mr Trump falsely claimed was stolen from him.
It was all smiles between Mr Trump and Mr Netanyahu on Friday, however, with the American saying "we have a very good relationship" and insisting it was "never bad".
So brave. Almost had your world views challenged there because the points you brought up here get debunked in the video.
Good thing you came in here to comment on this post instead.
lemmy.world has a massive Zionism problem. Most people appear unable to handle any criticism of their cult.
Massively disrupting the Olympics and economy without any civilian casualties?
Based.
They got Biden to build their border wall and send money to israel.

There's quite a story being told in a single image. Such as the form of the blood on his boot.
Kamala Harris Planted Trees For Israel As A Child, Recalls Fond Memory After Netanyahu Meeting
Vice President Kamala Harris addressed the press following a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in the White House complex.
Harris began by sharing a personal anecdote from her childhood, recalling how she planted trees to support Israel's "right to defend itself." She emphasized the complexity of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, urging Americans to understand that it is not a binary issue. “Let us all condemn terrorism and violence,” she stated. “And let us condemn antisemitism, Islamophobia and hate of any kind.”
Reflecting on her recent discussions with Prime Minister Netanyahu, Harris said, “I just had a frank and constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. I told him that I will always ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, including from Iran and Iran-backed militias such as Hamas and Hezbollah.”
“I’ve had an unwavering commitment to the existence of the State of Israel, to its security, and to the people of Israel,” she said.
Internal Google documents show the company planned to sponsor an Israel Defense Forces tech conference — but its name was erased at the last minute.
The “IT For IDF” conference in Rishon LeZion, just south of Tel Aviv, brought together tech firms from across the world to support the Israel Defense Forces in Gaza and beyond.
Many of the assembled companies are not household names in the United States, but several multinational firms — like Nokia, Dell, and Canon — were present at July 10 event.
The mission they had gathered to support was clear. Onstage, a brigadier general with the Israeli military gave a presentation that connected the Nakba, the 1967 Arab–Israeli War, the 2006 invasion of Lebanon, the current war on Gaza, and more wars in the decades to come. His call to action splashed across the big screen: “Each generation and its own turn — this is our watch!”
One company, however, was conspicuously absent: Google.
For the last two years, Google had been a marquee sponsor of IT For IDF — the company is a natural partner for the event, given Google Cloud’s foundational role in Project Nimbus, a $1.2 billion contract aimed at modernizing cloud computing operations across Israeli government that it shares with Amazon.
The UAE has long been accused of drawing out the conflict in Sudan through its involvement
Emirati passports recovered in Sudan have provided damning evidence that the UAE has been intervening in the conflict in the north African country.
According to the Guardian, a document sent to the UN Security Council and seen by the newspaper contains images allegedly found in Sudan and linked to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the paramilitary group that has been fighting the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in the country since April 2023.
Middle East Eye has reported previously on the extensive support the UAE provides for the RSF through a network of supply routes that run through Libya, Chad, Uganda and Central African Republic.
The UAE continues to deny that it is arming and supplying the RSF, which is led by its longtime ally Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, the general and former Janjaweed commander known as Hemeti.
International human rights groups have found “clear and compelling evidence” that the RSF is committing genocide against “non-Arab groups” in Darfur, the vast western region of Sudan that is now almost entirely controlled by the paramilitary force.
Israeli prime minister, who will also meet Harris and ex-President Trump on US visit, faces condemnation over conflict.
Washington, DC – US President Joe Biden has begun a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a day after thousands of people protested against the Israeli leader’s visit to the United States capital amid the Gaza war.
US Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic presidential nominee in November’s election, is also expected to hold talks with Netanyahu on Thursday.
The Biden administration has continued to provide unwavering support to Israel amid the conflict in Gaza, authorising billions of dollars in military aid and providing Israel with key diplomatic backing.
Speaking from the Oval Office, Netanyahu said he “looked forward” to working with Biden during the remainder of his term.
“I look forward to it as well,” Biden responded.
MEE has learnt that the Labour government is likely to announce some restrictions on arms sales to Israel, but not suspend them entirely
The UK is likely to introduce restrictions on arms sales to Israel, Middle East Eye can reveal. It is also expected to drop its objection to the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) arrest warrant for senior Israeli leaders.
Well-informed sources within the Labour Party told Middle East Eye that in the coming days the government is likely to introduce some restrictions on arms sales but not suspend sales entirely.
The development comes after Foreign Secretary David Lammy said last week that he requested a comprehensive review of Israel’s compliance with international humanitarian law on his first day in office.
Trump to meet Netanyahu Friday at Mar-a-Lago
Why it matters: This will be the first meeting between Trump and Netanyahu since the fallout between them after the 2020 elections.
The Israeli Prime Minister hopes the meeting with Trump will open a new page in their relations.
The last time Netanyahu met Trump was at the White House in September 2020 at the signing ceremony of the Abraham Accords, which Trump brokered.
The Israeli prime minister has been courting Trump, who's held a grudge against Netanyahu for years.
"F**k him," Trump told Axios about Netanyahu in April 2021, during a rant over Netanyahu congratulating President Biden for winning the presidency in 2020.
"I will never back down in speaking truth to power. The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians."
Following her call for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's arrest during his visit to Washington, D.C., U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib protested the right-wing leader's Wednesday address before a joint meeting of Congress by holding up a sign reading "war criminal" and "guilty of genocide."
"They will not erase us. Palestinians exist and we deserve to live. Our presence today will be a reminder that we aren't going anywhere," Tlaib (D-Mich.) said on social media. "I will never back down in speaking truth to power. The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians."
Israel flagbearer at Paris Olympics ‘signs bombs’ targeting civilians in Gaza
Israel’s male flagbearer at Friday’s opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games is believed to have signed bombs prior to them being fired against the Palestinians in Gaza, Anadolu has reported. Peter Paltchik, 32, used social media to show him writing “From me to you with pleasure” on munitions destined for Gaza.
While the likely Democratic nominee does not have Joe Biden’s 50-year history of support for Israeli militarism, her record indicates she would maintain a staunch pro-Israel policy.
Within hours of Joe Biden announcing he would not seek reelection, the Democratic Party’s power elite began consolidating their support for Vice President Kamala Harris to head the ticket to defeat Donald Trump. Among Harris’s challenges if she secures the Democratic nomination will be to win back support from voters outraged at the Biden administration’s facilitation of Israel’s genocidal war against the Palestinians of Gaza.
Harris set a tone for her posture on Israel as a senator when she co-sponsored legislation in 2017 condemning former President Barack Obama’s decision to abstain from vetoing a UN Security Council Resolution critical of Israel. The resolution, which was adopted in December 2016, stated that “the establishment by Israel of settlements in the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, has no legal validity and constitutes a flagrant violation under international law and a major obstacle to the achievement of the two-State solution and a just, lasting and comprehensive peace.”
Harris and her senate colleagues charged that Obama’s refusal to block the UN resolution was “inconsistent with long-standing United States policy.” They said U.S. policy should be aimed at preventing the UN from actions that “further isolate Israel through economic or other boycotts or any other measures” and urged future administrations “to uphold the practice of vetoing all United Nations Security Council resolutions that recognize unilateral Palestinian actions including declaration of a Palestinian state or dictate terms and a timeline for a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”
Although Kremlin strike planners probably didn’t intend to hit a NATO member, Romania’s military launched F-16s fighters and said it would investigate.
A Russian kamikaze drone on Wednesday flew into NATO air space and detonated near a Romanian village, Ukrainian news reports said, but official Bucharest said the fact of the strike wasn’t confirmed and that they would check.
Ukrainian social media video recorded in the river port city of Izmail, opposite Plaura, showed an orange flash lighting up the night horizon and a booming blast on the Romanian side of the river. Flames and smoke reaching hundreds of meters into the sky were visible following the explosion. A Russian kamikaze drone strike against Izmail had been in progress at the time.
Israel parliament votes to label UN relief agency a terror organisation
The Israeli parliament gave preliminary approval on Monday to a bill that declares the main United Nations relief organisation for Palestinians a terrorist organisation and proposes to sever relations with the body, Reuters reports.
The vote against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) is the latest step in an Israeli push against the Agency, which Israeli leaders have accused of collaborating with the Hamas Movement in Gaza.
Israel has said hundreds of UNRWA staff are members of terrorist groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, but has yet to provide evidence to a UN-appointed review.
Illegal settlers attack Palestinians, foreign activists while clearing, plowing farmlands in Qusra town - Anadolu Ajansı
Two American activists and a Palestinian were injured on Sunday in an attack by illegal Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank, according to medics and local media.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said its medics transferred two Americans to the hospital after they were assaulted by illegal settlers in the town of Qusra in the northern West Bank.
The official Palestinian news agency Wafa said another Palestinian was injured in the attack.
According to the broadcaster, a group of illegal settlers attacked Palestinians and foreign activists as they were clearing and plowing farmlands.
Pakistan announced a committee to identify companies linked to Israel while also urging the world to designate the Israeli Prime Minister as a terrorist.
The Pakistani government has formed a committee on Saturday that will identify and boycott companies linked to supporting Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza.
The advisor to Pakistan’s Prime Minister, Rana Sanaullah, told reporters that companies and products that “may be directly or indirectly abetting Israel or forces” will be boycotted.
The accord notes that Netanyahu is responsible for the “atrocities committed by Israeli forces in Palestine”, adding that the country already considers him to be a terrorist.
