Well that's just threatening them with a good time.
Netanyahu doesn't want a ceasefire and he does want Iran to attack and draw the US into the conflict.
I think you're right. I hope some of that message gets through to those Israeli people who actually do want a ceasefire.
The polling I've seen suggests the Israeli people are bloodthirsty as fuck.
Note that the Palestinian Authority is the comprador gov't of the west bank. These people don't even want Israel to negotiate with their own puppets.
I mean to be fair this data is from October. Not expecting much, but the data is probably different now.
they ran the same poll in January and the results were basically the same
That survey was less than a month after it happened.
It wouldn’t have surprised me if it had been higher.
Checkers and chess. I hope a cloud hangs over the land for a thousand years
Edit: spelling
What happens after a thousand years?
It’ll be ten feet underwater I hope.
Netanyahu only wants one thing, and it’s to stay in power for as long as possible. If a regional war gives that to him (via Ben-Gvir), he won’t mind.
Edit: He currently holds a parliamentary majority. If he agrees to a ceasefire, the more extreme members of his coalition will no-confidence him together with the opposition. And, as it stands right now, he has no chance of participating in the next government.
Pretty sure he needs conflict to stay in power and he needs power to shield him.
