Israel has had 5(?) elections in the past year or so. Never able to form a government with Netanyahu running the show. Last time I believe the opposition was asked to form a government in 30 days or so. Not sure where they are at this point.

"[The opposition] just last week seemed ready to set aside their differences in order to unseat [Netanyahu]. But he now appears to have neutralized the political threat, thanks in part to the escalation with the Palestinians—which has stoked nationalist passions and made it more difficult for the opposition parties to come together."

Who's going to be around to start the Middle East 2028 thread?

Mr. Daystar
In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
What makes you think the Middle East will even be around in 2028?
So, he stirred **** up with the Palestinians to maintain power?
That is utterly despicable.
He's vilifying an ethnic/religious group within his country and using military ***** to persecute/**** them, in order to solidify his political base and consolidate his power?
...gee, where have we seen that before?

What I heard was pretty much the same thing that bubb did. Netanyahu is sweating bullets trying to form a government to stay in power. It seems like he's having a difficult time. If he instigates something he can claim the retaliation was the initial aggression to make his people fearful and run into the loving arms of Strongman Bibi.
Does that include the Good Ol USA?
The National Socialist Movement holds a lighting ceremony following a rally that was held in Newnan, Ga., on April 21, 2018.
This is not complicated at all like Michael Brooks says. RIP Michael. Imagine you had Jewish refugees in Gaza and West Bank and an Arabic government in Jerusalem. Imagine this Arabic government bombing Jewish citizens indiscriminately in Gaza and enacting an embargo whereby provisions would be blocked from entering Jewish Gaza and in the West Bank Arabic settlers uprooting Jewish citizens from their homes and security ****** terrorizing them. How do you think the world would react then?
Would it be a bad thing if some of your country’s women and men supported the National Socialist idea?
All people are more or less fascists.
Some do and Yes it would

Imagine if Mexico was lobbing rockets into Texas or California. Or if Canada was firing into Minnesota, Montana, New York, et al. The US would be all over them.
As for your question about how the world would react: the world would probably do "not much" other than send terse diplomatic messages. Quite similar to our current reaction.
Quite a broad statement and not really true. Some factions in multicultural societies are fucked up and fascist. Everyone needs an enemy - race, religion, gender, sex orientation, et al. Monocultural societies don't work very well.
All of this arises from an imbalance of power. Israel has the power. The Palestinians do not. The Palestinians should be upset with Hamas's supporter Iran.

I believe in Freedom Of Religion and also Freedom From Religion. Supporting all religions and supporting those with no religion. No one is special or chosen.

"Special"; as in "retard" use of "special"? That word is so ruined.
Dino, don't be surprised if your wife says you're special.
Special: a particularly important person
