Summary

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich endorsed President-elect Donald Trump’s victory, stating it’s “time” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

This comes as Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu highlighted his alignment with Trump on the “Iranian threat.”

Tensions in Gaza and Lebanon have escalated following recent Israeli airstrikes, with regional leaders gathering in Riyadh to address Israeli actions.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog is set to meet President Biden, though Biden’s influence on Israel may be limited following Trump’s win.

      I’m sorry was Richard Spencer on the ballot? How far does this transitive property go? Is the entire family of the voter now Nazis too? After all they have to sit at the table with the person and we know what you all say about sitting at tables with Nazis.

      This is a shit attempt at moral blackmail.

          Oh so now you have to affirmatively vote for a Nazi. Well good news, Trump isn’t a Nazi, or a Neo Nazi. There are other flavors of shitty politics.

              Oh I don’t like Nazis either. But his political campaign isn’t built on Hitler’s. It’s a pretty stock modern campaign that had better messaging than the Democrats. And before you accuse me of liking his messaging, he won the election. So it was better messaging.

              Calling everyone who doesn’t vote for the Democrats a Nazi just isn’t a winning message. That may seem weird to you but all everyone else hears is that you don’t know what a Nazi is, and you’re just throwing a word around.

              Especially this new transitive power of being a Nazi by doing nothing. Even in the aftermath of World War 2 you weren’t considered a Nazi without a party number. By the time you’re done accusing people of being Nazis by the transitive power, everyone, yourself included, will be a Nazi. After all, you might accidentally sit at a table with one and then poof, you magically get an evil fashion sense.

                  So now not only do we have to vote, we also have to guess which one is the correct one with no communication.

                  And you say there’s not a transitive power here but you keep describing a transitive power. Oh and you’ve called for violence against people who just want to be left alone.

                  You’re really racking up the motivations for voting.
