Jfc. Politicizing hostage releases. What an asshole he is.
Worked for Ronald Reagan.
He sure was a beacon of moral fortitude.
Reagan withheld all aid to Israel only to replace it with military aid on condition that they use it to attack Hezbollah in Lebanon. He was just telling them where to point their guns.
That was after he supplied the weapons to Iran that armed Hezbollah in the Iran-Contra scandal.
Reagan came along at the worst possible time for America. He was the instigator of many of the issues we face today.
It’s almost like actors and real estate con men with no experience holding office aren’t the best presidents.
More like there is a century old structure that promotes rich "donors" interests and a cohesive American political and economical elite that shares those interests.
Lifelong sociopath, be's sociopath. Everyone surprised!
Asshole? More like monster.
It's almost like he doesn't care about Israelis or something...
Sociopath's gonna sociopath.
Netanyahu's plan is to be a dictator.
And you don't have to take my word for it, you can hear it from his former best friend- https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-798324
Netanyahu is scum
Can he be any more unlikeable?
He'll find a way.
He could have taken them hostage himself, that would have sped things up. "Make me prime emperor supreme for life or else!"

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
