Israeli soldiers raping Palestinians isn't really anything new AFAIK.

I mean TBF there's a reason people aren't moving away from COBOL. It does what it needs to do better than other alternatives.

Uh... What? The DNC has always been complicit in the modern state of American politics.

Okay I count five countries in the title. This is the most world news thing I've seen all week.

I'm saying 4x. All of Gaza is being starved to death. You're probably thinking of Northern Gaza, which is where the famine is at its worst, but that's not because the rest of Gaza isn't being starved. It's just a matter of time.

Because the seasons Biden is a bad candidate now are the same reasons he was a bad candidate a few months ago.

You're off by a factor of four, but same idea I guess.

Are there fence-sitters? Pretty sure there are basically only dedicated Trump voters and people who'd vote for anyone but Trump.

It's both.

What I don’t understand are the calls for Biden to step down from the NYT but no calls are made for Trump to step down.

Trump knows what he's doing, and his base supports it. Telling him to step down now is a meaningless act.

he basically put Hamas with their backs to the wall by destroying any hope on a two state solution during his term...

Correction: There was never any hope for a peaceful two state solution before or after his term.

I legit can't tell if this is sarcasm.

Okay the Houthis are fucked up but what does Israel have to do with this?

Countries, as a rule, don't have a right to exist. People have a right to self-determination. These are different things. That said, Israel is fundamentally an Apartheid state. If Israel stopped being an Apartheid state it'd stop being Israel. And if a state needs to treat half the people in it as second class citizens to exist then it can go die in a ditch.

Maintaining that an Apartheid state has the right to keep being an Apartheid state is very Nazi-like.

denying Israel's right to exist counts as antisemitism

It's not. Israel is an Apartheid state and can't exist as anything but an Apartheid state.

There's also a good possibility that one of the high ranking military officers will use the opportunity that will arise from the chaos to orchestrate a coup and put themselves in power.

That is, admittedly, a possibility I hadn't considered.

This treaty has been active for 50 years, what would Israel gain from destroying it?

If the treaty remains active then makes sense, but I doubt anyone will care about a peace treaty with a failed state. You know how when a country just falls apart its neighbors go after the pieces? That's the sort of scenario I'm envisioning here. Admittedly my thinking might be overly simplistic, and I should've considered more orderly possibilities, but at least in the Syria-style absolute chaos situation I'm imagining (which after thinking about it isn't as likely as I thought) of I don't see why they'd honor the sovereignty of a state that ceased to exist, in the same way nobody really cares about Syria as a sovereign state anymore.

Uh... I'm not sure how you intend to justify the ethnic cleansing of 700 thousand people but this isn't the gotcha you think it is.

Zionism calls for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. You literally can't have that without fascism. It's impossible.

Is there something on the ground that is not apparent in the media our Egyptian diaspora?

Not really; it's just that I doubt the army will give up power peacefully. Hence civil war or violent revolution. And in both cases it wouldn't be strange if Israel decided to expand into Sinai during the chaos.
