Why does the US Congress welcome in ICC-indicted war criminals like Netanyahu and other Israeli political and military leaders, and yet we're having this big, dumb fucking fight for a month about Hassan Piker's Twitch stream?

Yeah, I mean, AIPAC primarily has started sort of intervening in Democratic primaries, attacking the more progressive candidate about issues that have nothing to do with Israel.

And that's rubbing people the wrong way.

And I think there's a broader sort of waking up to the fact that

At this moment, the two-state solution is just not realistic in any way.

And I think a lot of times when politicians talk about, well, we need peace talks and two states living side by side and blah, blah, blah, it's just a way of punting the question and having anything to say that they all know is complete bullshit because the West Bank is getting chopped up every single day by more settlement construction.

And after October 7th, neither side has any faith in the process, nor do they necessarily support a two-state solution anymore.

So that's all true and real.

I think where what the what my only advice to like the more progressive candidates and people on the left is, I do think one thing that has gotten lost from the conversation is like any sense of empathy and a lot of these answers about the trauma that Israelis felt on October 7th.

or that Jews in America feel and fear they feel about anti-Semitism.

And I think we just need, that needs to be more a part of the conversation as we recalibrate these much harder policy issues.

Of course, I have enormous empathy for people in Gaza, the suffering, the Palestinian people, like having empathy for the Israelis who were hurt or killed or kidnapped that day or the people who were scared by the events of October 7th.

Like they're not mutually exclusive.

We can do both.

And I think it's just it's gotten a little bit lost from the debate.

Or a state that is a de facto apartheid state with different laws for different people and different religions.

Which is also unacceptable.

Man, I don't know.

This wasn't really on my radar screen until today.

But, you know, then I'm seeing there was a reporter named Desiree Townsend who was quote tweeting Laura Loomer.
