Feeling the hate.
Given the time lapse, one has to believe it has grown worse since Oct 7. Of course, why not?
We have heard all the excuses and the efforts to rid Gaza of Palestinians, the bombings - the Genocide.
And it continues. Netanyahu is in Washington this week to meet with Trump. Rest assured they will concoct a plan and a renewed effort to cleanse Gaza.
Trump has already said Palestinians should self-deport to Egypt and Jordan, and as the sun will rise in the morning, you know Bibi is eager to go back to bombing Gaza again. This current peace plan will die a natural death, because knowing Bibi, there can be only one kind of peace - Greater Israel, whatever that entails in his mind.
The spectacle of Hamas with guns and fresh uniforms escorting hostages to the Red Cross for transportation back to Israel must have riled Bibi to no end.
Those scenes put the lie to his claim that he has destroyed Hamas. No, he has not. He has just levelled the above ground of the cities, but deep in the bowels of the tunnels Hamas is alive and will grow again, proving the futility of this war, and all wars in their attempt to kill the idea of a people’s will and determination to be free.
Uncomfortable as is may be for many to confront, Israeli resentment of Arabs, minorities and designated foreign enemies ranging from the Iranian people to Barack Obama is not a phenomenon exclusive to the denizens of fanatical settlements in the West Bank. The trend now hovers well above the surface in the mainstream of Israeli society, including throughout Tel Aviv. It is reflected most apparently in the almost total national support for Israel’s brutal, maximalist war on the civilian population of the Gaza Strip in December 2008-January 2009, the subsequent election of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the ascent of Avigdor Lieberman and his proto-fascist Yisrael Beiteynu party.
