Nobody wants to enter into a hot war with the US. Without Western support, Israel would be in a pickle right now.

Israel has comprehensively pissed off all of its neighbours. It knows it can get away with it too, because daddy US will always be there to support them.
True. This exposes American foreign policy as hypocritical as it usually is. What is also sad is the fact that US citizens can do little about it as long as nothing fundamentally changes. In the next presidential election, they only have the choice between an obviously criminal fascist and a halfway normal-thinking politician who does not shy away from supporting crimes against humanity. How one can still speak of a functioning democracy in this situation is beyond me. It's just a choice between plague and cholera.
Well, all the more need for change then.
You're not wrong about most of what you said but I am wondering why you seemed to equate those two choices in President. From the way you described them one seems pretty drastically worse than the other to me.
You have to decide for yourselves. All I am saying is that choosing between two evils does not correspond to my understanding of a democracy in which politics pursues the interests of the people. Of course, you always have to make concessions, but for me both candidates would be unelectable if there were alternatives, namely a third or even a fourth option. But your system doesn't provide for that. That's why I think you should consider whether this system makes sense - but you'll have to answer this question yourselves, I'm afraid.
Your are still trying to shove shit in our mouths and convince us it is a great choice since it comes with a little mustard to cut the taste
The last time Israel did atrocities in Gaza and countries sat idly by, various terror groups gained traction because they use the fact that the world did nothing to help Palestine to boost their recruitment drives. We'll probably see the rise of terrorism again in a few years because of this.
The fact that the response from IDF is to say "nuh uh, this is just propaganda, and we're in the right anyways because they are the bad guys" is just so frustratingly transparent, given that it's an English news team recording it...
Gaza has become a place of constant livestream of Israeli war crimes. Even with the media filter, killing of Gazan journalists, and a complete blockade of movement from and to Gaza, reports and videos like these are trickling through.
The IDF isn't even hiding it. Shot him with the camera rolling wow.
So, who shot him? It doesn't say.
What is that supposed to mean? Are you saying that maybe the man was shot by Hamas? What evidence is there for that? More than the reasonable assumption that the IDF shot him? Any answer?
There is no evidence of anything, genius. That's the point.
Alrighty, let's just have some "just raising questions" then, I guess. Just some plain ol' questions.
Whatever that means... No evidence is no evidence.

I can't believe that the world still just stands idly by or even supports these war crimes. That is inhumane.
