For the MOU to hold and result in a lasting peace, we must restrict aid to Israel immediately & make it clear that we will not defend them should Iran opt to strike in response to Israel’s attacks in Lebanon.
Israel has not responded to our verbal & written demands—that is not going to change.
Israel claims sovereignty & continues to threaten our peace deal, yet they rely on us to bail them out. This is calculated.
We have to respond accordingly and stop this cycle once and for all.
Lead with action: remove their leverage, otherwise they will not take us seriously.
An open SOH & peace in the region have to be our focus. Israel is playing spoiler—we must limit their ability to do so.
You’re a fool, Lapid. You’re giving voice to what was a terrible smear of your entire country dressed up as something else. It’ll be used by the haters here to justify more of it.
@mishtal They’re left like sitting ducks because their are occupying another country. The level of mental gymnastics required to support this is beyond comprehension
@EliGoldman@HikindDov Where? Oh, in Lebanon? Bring your troops home, Hezbollah will stop. Iran seems to be more capable of reigning in their proxies than America is
@HikindDov What you’re saying is incompatible with Israel’s actions. If all they want is calm, withdrawal from Lebanon and let Trump get to work on the peace deal
@tfiiiiine I think you’ll see JD Vance favorability polls skyrocket in the coming weeks. Israel has overplayed their hand and no amount of propaganda will change that
@jpodhoretz There you go, conflating criticism of the Israeli government with Judaism to garner sympathy for your cause. We’re over it. Israel needs to get in line or prepare to stand alone
@VividProwess Defending yourself while occupying their land? Israel has 0 credibility on the world stage anymore and this perpetual victimhood bullshit is played out.
