For the American voters to make sure it sinks in.
It’s more the non-voters that it needed to sink in with but it’s too late for that.
Do you understand who is president right now?
I’m not american, and I don’t know anything about this topic. May I ask for ELI5, please?
Trump is at least as far right as Netanyahu. He supports the full destruction of Palestine and Palestinians. His election has dropped all Israeli pretense in their propaganda. They can now do what they want with impunity since Trump’s administration will provide all the international cover that they need and Trump’s admin will happily brag about the genocide they helped to perpetrate.
It means Israel is using the current conflict in Gaza to expand into another Palestinian territory, the West Bank. They are already illegally occupying it. This is their move to “legitimize” the occupation.
