Yes, their sales are down.So does boycotting Starbucks work?
Boycotts and sanctions ended apartheid in South Africa.
After the ICJ all countries will not be legally allowed to sell Israel weapons.
Israel's only hope is that the US vetoes an ICJ ruling, but that trial won't happen before Biden is out of office.
naivete and idealism is definitely through the roof. I think this is actually why team hamas is underrepresented here - because most people on this board are pragmatic and understand simple things, such as:
1.according to the polls Palis can't be happy until Israel exists. Too many of them are radicalized, and they have been engaging in killing Israeli civilians for decades via bombings, stabbings, rockets etc.
2. Eliminating Israel "occupation" from the river to the sea (as they would like) would inevitably lead to ethnic cleansing of insane proportions and likely to a genocide. So Israel is hanging on thinking about day-to-day solutions rather than childish dreams about bright future in which wolves and sheep live happily together, as they cannot afford idealism while dealing with terror.
So you think you have to genocide away because you think the occupation has made Palestinians too mad?
what cultural appropriation? do they have culture that anyone ever appropriated?
Nothing to do with Palestinians...Hamas stirred the pot, knowing Palestinians could die and didn't care...
Instead, we can use the word WINNERS in the fight against terrorists.
But this link from Rich reinforces that Hamas is losing on the battlefield, in the courts and especially in the halls of power. The world hates terrorists.
Israel has killed more journalists than any other war in the last century.
Wow, Israel can beat a concentration camp filled with refugees, with no army, no airforce, no heavy weapons by killing mostly women and children.
So powerful.
You are winning like South Africa in the 1970's.
You are winning like Germany in 1944.
Israel will go on trial for genocide.
You will be forever known as a supporter of genocide.
Hey shack, maybe you can do your little happy dance today.
Israel killed 31 more people in Gaza.
All by Netanyahu's orders.
Not surprising he's killing all the hostages.
Where could they possibly keep them that would be safe?
Right wing ideologues aren't going to change their mind to survive the next election.
They would have to be voted out to make this deal.
But them being voted out means the whole "let's persecute the war in this bloodthirsty manner" becomes moot because they would have already been removed.
Then why are you positing that Israel would have to moderate if you firmly believe that no one in the West or Israel wants to moderate?
This just feels like you wishcasting a result where everyone makes happy and nice magically.
You're whole argument seems to be "everyone will be voted out and then when completely different people are there they will take a completely different strategy".
Which doesn't seem like it deals much with what is actually happening now.
