    The moderate Israeli majority are the only ones who can stop this, now that the US has made it perfectly clear which side it’s on. It seems, though, that they are content to merely wave a sign around in protest. They want peace, but not enough to actually do anything about it.

    Time for a general strike in Israel.

      Moderate what now? According to a recent poll, 80% of Israeli Jews aren’t brothered by the suffering of Palestinians. Look up the Tel Aviv University Peace Index; Israeli society is rotten to the core. The moderate position in Israeli politics is “we should prioritize the safety of the hostages, of course without compromising the Great Patriotic War™.” The people who give enough of a shit about the genocide to act are a fringe minority among fringe minorities

      now that the US has made it perfectly clear which side it’s on.

      US’s been perfectly clear which side it’s on for decades; Trump is just louder about it.
