Religious Zionism says will quit coalition if no return to war after deal’s 1st phase

1. Damn. If this news source can be trusted then there are some pretty bloodthirsty barbarians in Israeli politics. Also the imagery of people calling for further war while wearing religious garb I find honestly frightening.

2. “Religious Zionism” is such a strange concept. On the one hand, you have people who believe Jews were cast out of Israel for breaking the covenant, condemned to wander the Earth until the arrival of the messiah and the rebuilding of the temple. On the other hand, Exodus (or one of the other books, I can’t recall) endorses the complete genocide of the inhabitants of conquered lands if those people refuse to surrender. 

   It’s difficult to know who is right in this situation.

3. This is fucking evil. How can these people even exist. They’re so bloodthirsty that they will quit in protest if the killing of Palestinians doesn’t resume. Such ghouls.

   It at least shows how pathetic the “emergency” Netanyahu declared was. The only emergency was that his coalition wouldn’t be able to kill more people.

4. >Kan radio reported that Netanyahu has offered Smotrich and Ben Gvir “gains for the right” in return for them remaining in the government, particularly in the realm of **increased settlement construction in the West Bank.**

   And this is exactly why Israel has failed as a democracy. The majority of voters choose parties who are fine going into coalition with these ghouls.

   ‘The only democracy in the middle east’ isn’t such a great boast when they commit human rights abuses which are arguably worse than most of their neighbours, but the people get to vote in support of those abuses.

5. The fact that Netanyahu isn’t even close to being the most genocidal person in that government coalition is honestly frightening. People with these morals shouldn’t be allowed to have nuclear weapons.
