That man is certifiably insane. You don't say shit like that unless you're a complete psychopath. And he's in a position of such power...
Ben Gvir needs to be locked in the Hague forever.
And THIS is why there are protests. Not because of Jewish hate, but because of them seeing any Palestinian as beneath them.
Exactly, US weapons are being used by these fanatics to indiscriminately kill women and children. The Israeli leadership basically thought the world and public opinion would just fall in line as the US and West has tended to, given them cover. The dehumanization of an entire people is something they've been getting away for decades. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2017/06/israel-occupation-50-years-of-dispossession/
Openly admitting to war crimes.
How is Ben-Gvir a minister? And how is the US acting like a government that would appoint him as the minister of national security is conducting this war in anything resembling an ethical way?
When he turned 18 and reported for mandatory conscription, the IDF rejected him for being too extreme.
After Yitzhak Rabin signed the Oslo occords, the last best chance for a peaceful resolution to this conflict, Ben-Gvir stole Rabin's hood ornament and brandished it on national television saying something to the effect of "we got his ornament, we can get Rabin". Not long after, an Israeli extremist assasinated Rabin; and with him any hope of peace.
He has since been convicted, by an Israeli court, of supporting a terrorist organization (Kach), and incirement of racism.
That is the man in charge of Israel's national security.
I wonder if this is his final solution.
Oh now it makes sense, the war crimes are so they can reduce the cost on their ~~hostages~~ prison industrial complex
But the US government wants to shield Israel's leaders by saying any war crimes are just isolated incidents instead of genocide. A genocide that was telegraphed again and again by Israeli leadership.
Ben-Gvir and his ilk, dangerous fanatics.
And this is what is referred to in psychology as a Freudian slip.
No, a Freudian slip is when you unintentionally say the thing you were actually thinking.
This guy knows exactly what he was saying.
But his mom isn’t involved?
At least I hope not….
She'll be the one he blames when the ICC comes a calling.
