Saying What Can't Be Said: Israel Has Been Defeated – a Total Defeat
The war's aims won't be achieved, the hostages won't be returned through military pressure, security won't be restored and Israel's international ostracism won't end
I want to believe this is a 1980s South Africa moment. But for all the "wha! wha! Our international reputation!" I simply won't hold my breath waiting for the 30,000 dead Palestinians and 1.4M refugees to enjoy any kind of retribution.
The killing hasn't even stopped yet. The famine drags on. All the Israelis seem to care about is their next-quarter GDP figures. But for Gaza it is so much fucking worse.
Where do you think ex-Israelis and the fake jewish boers will go to if another apartheid regime falls? I see white people constantly go on about how North Korea is an epic ethnostate. Maybe they'll try to flee there and get shot in the process
I don't know, I don't care, but I'll tell you this:
If the Haitian revolution gets a repeat, I will be 'tending to my own.
Actions have consequences. Wherever and whatever happens to the Israelis they have no one- not Iran, not America, not hitler- no one else to blame but themselves.
The only people that could've stopped this was them, because they caused it.
I desperately want to believe this will be like apartheid South Africa too; but not only does the Zionist entity seem to be much more committed to their project than white South Africans, the pressure from the outside just isn’t there yet.
Obviously the US and much of Europe will never boycott Israel. I think if the Global South made a unified effort then maybe that would work. But tbh, with much of the Global South we’re just seeing strongly worded diplomatic censures but no real material action. Not yet at least.
I've already seen hasbara trying to differentiate between "Israel under Netanyahu" as if the entire project isn't bad, it's just the heckin smol bean prime minister doing the bad stuff
Ya isn't the obvious rebuttal to that claim those polls that overhelming show israelis want the genocide to keep going, even harder in some cases? I don't have a link to it that I can find but I believe that was the general sentiment.
There isn't some overwhelming support for a ceasefire among israeli's, in other words
I hope Iran goes full 𝒹𝑜𝓃𝓀𝑒𝓎 𝓀𝑜𝓃𝑔 𝓀𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝓀𝑜𝓃𝑔 𝒸𝓇𝒶𝓏𝓎. One more front is what the war always needed to look very different. I doubt Israel could adequately take on Hezbollah, let alone Iran itself. Things escalating will break the Israeli military and economy in ways they can't get out of any more than Ukraine can.
That's exactly what I think would happen. Ukraine has eaten up the surplus of the things we'd need to fight a protracted war against Iran. The US Navy's urgent priority is East Asia and they barely have the ability to cover that in peacetime. Support for Israel is becoming increasingly unpopular with the electorate, while Zionist liberals have been so weird and disgusting that I would never consider voting for a John Fetterman or Bernie Sanders. Only the US Marines are currently reaching their recruiting goals, and the first month of that war is going to produce drone videos that immediately turn off potential volunteers.
Iran would be such a serious near-peer war at such a bad time that I don't see the US being baited into a general invasion to support Israel. Maybe they're stupid enough but that's the kind of war that would break the empire.
