@MarioNawfal He's just following Iran's footsteps.
Hopefully he will continue on this path and help Iran push Israel out of Lebanon.

In one month, Trump went from OPENING the Strait of Hormuz to now BLOCKADING it
Anyone else see the irony?

Anyone who conflates criticizing Israel with criticizing Jews, or criticizing an Arab country with criticizing Islam, is an idiot

@ryangrim Since he is antisemitic, shouldn't that prevent him from getting US government contracts and funding?

Netanyahu says he launched the war on Iran, which according to the ADL he shouldn’t say because it’s antisemitism:
“All of this happened because we initiated, we acted, we attacked.”

Mossad Commentary@MOSSADil
🇮🇱 NETANYAHU FULL STATEMENT: “Dear citizens of Israel, my dear brothers and sisters, The term of the campaign has come to an end, but it is already clear that we have historical achievements. I want to remember where we were. Iran tried to catch us off guard. Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Assad regime in Syria, the militias in Iraq, the foreigners in Yemen, Iran itself. They wanted to subdue us, and we are subduing them. They threatened us with destruction, and now they are fighting to survive. We have defeated them, we still have a lot to do, and I will explain this later. But I want to start with Iran itself, with the head of the organization. I have dedicated a significant part of my life to preventing one thing, that this terrorist regime will achieve a nuclear weapon. I have spoken about this at the Congress, the UN, and in various parliaments. But the world has not heard. Many have said, this is not that terrible. I have even heard them within us. And I, as the Prime Minister of Israel, could not accept this. We were the first to break the barrier of fear, operating in Iran itself. If I had told you a year ago that our pilots would fly in Iran, who would have believed it? And that the United States would fight alongside us, shoulder to shoulder, for nearly 40 days—who would have believed it? But all of this happened because we initiated, we acted, we attacked. Iran was very close to obtaining nuclear weapons and the ability to produce thousands and thousands of missiles—two existential threats we were determined to remove. We eliminated 12 of their top nuclear scientists. We attacked their nuclear facilities together with our American friends. We also attacked thousands of missiles and hundreds of launchers. Later, we eliminated eight more nuclear scientists, destroyed the reactor in Arak, destroyed their centrifuge system and uranium production plant. We reached a point where Iran does not have a single active enrichment plant. We also weakened the regime to its lowest level since it was established 47 years ago. We eliminated senior leadership across the regime, struck Revolutionary Guards infrastructure, and targeted their economic and military capabilities. Iran is no longer the same Iran, and Israel is no longer the same Israel. They who dared to destroy us are now fighting for their own survival. In Gaza, we control more than 50% of the territory. In Lebanon, we destroyed the majority of a 150,000 missile arsenal in six hours and prevented infiltration plans into the Galilee. We continue to fight Hezbollah and restore security to the north. As a result of this strength, Lebanon has approached us multiple times to begin direct peace talks—something that has not happened in history. Many countries are now turning to us and to the United States for cooperation. Israel is stronger than ever—small in size, but huge in spirit and determination. These are historic achievements. We bombed the nuclear weapons, we bombed the missiles, we bombed the regime. Together with the United States, we have changed the balance of power. There is still a long way to go. But with our brave soldiers, our fallen heroes, and the strength of our people—we will continue. And with God's help, we will continue to work together, and we will continue to win.” Stay connected, follow @MOSSADil.

@SecularMohel @jpodhoretz John isn't even up to date on the latest hasbara.
Turkey is now our enemy, not Qatar.

@jpodhoretz Dude, nobody who isn't already rabidly pro-Israel is going for this Qatar bait. We know Qatar is not America's main problem. That's idiotic.

I wonder how you would feel if Qatar cut you off and you had to live with your means and not as an agent of influence
Ryan Grim@ryangrim
Bruce Pearl says he will now boycott Spain. I wonder how he would like it if we passed laws saying he was not allowed to boycott Spain and that doing so was bigoted toward Spanish people.

@BriannaWu @elradhubbard What's your source for the 4/5 ratio?
English
@elradhubbard I am comfortable conducting operations where four terrorists die and one civilian dies.
Look a nation has a responsibility to keep its citizen safe. Hezbollah has given Israel Cassius belli.
English
Over 4/5th of the people taken out were terrorists? That is an EXCELLENT civilian to combatant ratio.
I don’t understand what people expect Israelis to do. Lebanon has been partially captured by Hezbollah, and they indiscriminately target Israel civilians.
Are Jews just supposed to die?
Israel Foreign Ministry@IsraelMFA
More than 200 of those who “lost their lives” were Hezbollah terrorists who, over the past 40 days, have fired unprovoked and without pause 6,500 missiles, rockets, and UAVs at Israeli civilians.
English
@AbeGreenwald Wrong question. Better question: What could Israel do to mend the generational perception in the US?
English
What specifically did he do that was wrong in itself and and damaging to the Israel-US relationship?
Joe Scarborough@ScarboroughNow
Netanyahu has caused a generational collapse of US support for Israel. I say this as a lifelong supporter of Israel who has long feared Netanyahu’s maximalist—and ahistorical—view of geopolitical realities in the Middle East would cause a devastating blowback for Israel. It has.

@Olivia_Reingold What's your take on where Michigan tax dollars should be spent?
English
The right and the left are converging in Abdul El-Sayed—the Mamdani of Michigan—who is running on an America First, Israel Last platform.
He's doing something entirely new: trying to connect America's defense spending on Israel—which accounted for ~.05%% of federal spending in 2025—to affordability.
"I’m fucking from Michigan," he told the crowd on Tuesday night. "I want my tax dollars spent in Michigan, protecting Michigan kids, providing Michigan healthcare, fixing Michigan roads, building Michigan schools."
It’s the kind of America First appeal you might expect to hear at a Trump rally or from Tucker Carlson.
English
Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed claims he’s running on affordability. So why did he just appear onstage with anti-Israel radical Hasan Piker?
Much of what I saw felt more fitting for a MAGA rally. Only instead of immigrants or trans people, the target was Israel.

@academic_la Here's a solution:
1. Go back to 1967 borders
2. Be a good neighbor
English
With the war in Iran possibly over for now, but new rounds all but certain, a war in Lebanon looking like it may last for months if not years and no resolution in Gaza, Israel is now facing the worst strategic situation it has in years:
1) Israel now faces a worse security reality than before the war. A potential US-Iran deal could restrict Israel's ability to act against Iran in the future, while Iran has demonstrated its capacity to strike deep into Israeli territory with ballistic missiles.
2) Considering the erosion of US-Israeli relations, chances are that future rounds against Iran and other potential enemies will be fought with decreasing, and eventually no American support at all. That is unsustainable.
3) Israel's current defense budget stands at $45.7 billion, already expanded by nearly $9.6 billion in a recent top-up, and the military now says even that is not enough. An additional $10.9 billion is needed before year's end, just to cover existing commitments, with no margin for new crises. For context, that additional $10.9 billion ask alone is roughly equivalent to the entire annual defense budget of a mid-sized European nation.
4) Each Iran confrontation carries a price tag of $16–19 billion. If these rounds become recurring. Each Iran confrontation carries a price tag of $16–19 billion. Israel would be spending the equivalent of a small war every year or two, not as an emergency but as a structural cost of existence. At that pace, cumulative spending over a decade could reach $160–190 billion in direct military costs alone, before factoring in economic disruption, lost productivity from reserve mobilization, or the civilian infrastructure that gets perpetually deferred.
5) Israel would be spending the equivalent of a small war every year or two, not as an emergency but as a structural cost of existence. At that pace, cumulative spending over a decade could reach $160–190 billion in direct military costs alone, before factoring in economic disruption, lost productivity from reserve mobilization, or the civilian infrastructure that gets perpetually deferred.
6) Its formerly robust relations with some of the Gulf States are under severe stress after the war. Israeli machinations have put them in serious danger with Iran and caused severe damage to their tourism and energy prospects. They will be looking to lessen dependence on the US and possibly move away from normalization with Israel, leaving Israel isolated in the region.
6) To counter the lack of a diplomatic resolution, Israel has shifted toward a strategy of creating and maintaining permanent buffer zones in Southern Lebanon (up to the Litani River), Gaza, and parts of Syria. That adds to mounting responsibilities in the West Bank. Patrolling these vast, hostile areas simultaneously will place an unsustainable long-term strain on IDF personnel and the domestic economy.
7) The convergence of record-high reserve call-ups, a significant brain drain in the high-tech sector, and a nearly total loss of the Palestinian labor force has created a critical manpower crisis that IDF leadership recently warned could cause the military to "collapse in on itself". The standard deployment for combat reservists has shifted from ad-hoc emergency calls to a structured 60 days per year in 2026, though this is still a one-third reduction from the peak burdens of 2025. Constant deployments have caused turnout rates in most reserve battalions to drop to 60–70%.
Israel faces a severe, unsustainable strategic crisis characterized by a permanent war economy, mounting financial strain, and increasing international isolation. This situation threatens to exceed the country’s long-term economic and manpower capabilities.

@Olivia_Reingold Lol @ "narrowing his eyes" and "who is Muslim".
Hopefully, there's a more substantial critique in your article.
English
Abdul El-Sayed, who is Muslim, walks a fine line on the Jewish state. On Tuesday night, he told the crowd—as he does often—that his problem is not with Jews.
“All of us love and revere Jewish folk, our Jewish neighbors, the faith of Judaism,” he said, hands outstretched.
Later that night, in a makeshift spin room assembled by the campaign, he rebuffed my question on whether he believes in Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.
“What do you mean by ‘Jewish state?’ ” he retorted, narrowing his eyes. “If you can’t answer that question, I’m not going to answer it.”
For someone who often waves around his respect for Judaism, he seemed unaware of something elementary: Judaism is not only a religion, but a people with a long-standing connection to Israel that runs through its prayers, traditions, and history.

@cartierfamilyZ @amuse Your asking alot of follow up questions. That's good. I hate to spoil it for you, but - but one of your upcoming questions will be:
Why aren't we bombing Israel?

@amuse I think that’s a problem but does that justify the killing of innocents?

@jonfavs So passive. It's time we start bombing them. They are making us unsafe!!!!

I hate Israel.
With all of my heart I hate them.
They are the most evil, vile, unethical, dishonest, violent, horrid, putrid, genocidal mass murderers on the planet.
Shame on anyone who still supports them.
I simply pray for justice.
I could not imagine doing so much evil.
English
@EylonALevy Looks like it’s Israel and the US against the rest of the world after this. The veil has been lifted.
English
@IanCarrollShow You just skipped over the part where the US partners with Iran (and the world) to restrain Israel.
Israel is not required to obey any ceasefires and we are not required to side with Israel.
We can oppose them - even with our military.
English
The war is far from over. Israel was never going to stop.
I suspect we are just getting started and I fear this will just be the launch pad for the boots on the ground that will be required as the US/Israel run completely dry of missiles.
Hope I’m wrong.
English
@ryangrim Simple solution: Let's bomb Israel.
Why that's always avoided is why there's never been peace.
Trump could earn the noble peace prize by doing the right thing now.
English
Make or break moment for Trump. Is he truly willing to restart the war simply so that Israel can continue pummeling Lebanon?
How does anybody remotely begin to argue that the US has an interest in seeing Lebanon destroyed by Israel? How is that our war?
Drop Site@DropSiteNews
📌 Iran may withdraw from the ceasefire if Israeli attacks on Lebanon continue, a source told Tasnim News Agency. The source said the U.S.-backed deal included halting attacks “on all fronts,” including Lebanon, and accused Israel of violating it. Iran’s armed forces are now identifying targets for a possible response, warning that if Washington cannot restrain Israel, Tehran “will act with force.”
English
@mattyglesias They got parts of Lebanon, Syria, Gaza, and West Bank.
I would not call that nothing.
English
The media still doesn’t get it but the master dealmaker just showed us a textbook “escalate to de-escalate” tactic where first you do something that makes everyone worse off, then you threaten something insane and monstrous, and finally you call it off having achieved nothing.
