Rightwing settlers in Israel welcome ‘dream team’ of Trump and his hardline appointments
Summary
Rightwing Israeli settlers and nationalist Zionists are praising Donald Trump’s incoming administration, describing it as a “dream team” for advancing settlement expansion and undermining the possibility of a Palestinian state.
Trump’s appointments, including Mike Huckabee and Pete Hegseth, openly support Israeli occupation and oppose a two-state solution.
Palestinian groups and leftwing NGOs warn these developments embolden policies like home demolitions in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, as well as expanded settlement construction.
Activists liken Trump’s policies to a biblical realignment favoring Israel’s territorial claims, exceeding even his first-term pro-Israel actions.
But I was told they were the same...
i still can't believe that lie worked on people…
They're the same as long as this war continues. Trump is worse in "peace" time, but it doesn't seem we're getting that any time soon.
he's emboldening world leaders enacting genocide. netenyahu has already expressed plans to accelerate the genocides he's enacting. zelenskyy, long a leader saying Ukraine would never give up any territory is planning to enter diplomatic peace talks and loss of territory will almost certainly be part of that.
your ignorance is embarrassing to observe. literally every cabinet pick so far has been a hardcore pro-israel or pro-russia pick.
When both parties enthusiastically support a war of genocide, it's fair to say they're the same, yes.
And that's how you'll be justifying it for the next 4 years. Awesome job. I sure hope Kamala learned her lesson.
But when the ones we oppose, the ones who are carrying out the war of genocide, and the ones who stand to directly benefit are absolutely enamored with a decision, it can give pause to those of us sitting in our ivory tower armchairs as to the impact of our decision to those who face the consequences more directly.
The choice was crying while doing the genocide or doing the genocide with a shit eating grin. From the perspective of someone who doesn’t want a genocide they are identical.
