@allinwithchris.bsky.social Hey, Chris Hayes. So sick of you refusing to speak of the barbarity of Hamas’ Oct 7 massacre of babies, children, women, elderly, civilians. Yes IDF killed civilians in its missions - but don’t ever rape, dismember, burn people alive. You cannot compare the two. Stop

He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one. Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant. Many have speculated how he’d do it. Now his gambit is clear. DC was a test. He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities. This is not a drill. Democracy is at defcon 1.

You won’t find an Israeli source calling for genocide of anyone. Also, how can it be a genocide if all Hamas had to was return the hostages that it took in violation of international law. That would have ended the war. You can’t have the power to stop a war and also be a victim of genocide.
nancyreibstein.bsky.social (@nancyreibstein.bsky.social) reply parent
Right, Israel is destabilizing- not the terrorist Iranian government on the verge of having nuclear weapons that they promise to destroy the West with. There is no genocide. Hamas, who massacred 1200 innocent civilians on Oct. 7th, whose charter actually CALLS FOR THE GENOCIDE OF JEWS.
