They Won’t Fight for Israel

So why should anyone else? Neither #BenShapiro nor #YairNetanyahu, the son of the Prime Minister, have any interest in #defending their fellow #Israelis against #Hamas, #Hezbollah, or any other enemies who might harm them.

The #son of #Israel’s Prime Minister #BenjaminNetanyahu has been blasted for staying in #Miami while #reservists returned home to #fight against Hamas. Yair Netanyahu, 32, has been in #Florida since at least April, after his father told him to stop making inflammatory posts on social media, which saw him sued for defamation multiple times.

Meanwhile an unprecedented 360,000 #reservists have been called up – many of them dropping everything to fly back to Israel, even abandoning #honeymoons. But #Yair has remained in Miami, to the #irritation of some of the #troops. ‘Yair is enjoying his life at #MiamiBeach while I’m on the #front lines,’ one #soldier, a volunteer serving on Israel’s northern front, told The Times.

‘It’s us who are leaving our work, our families, our kids, to protect our families back home and the country, not the people who are responsible for this situation. Our brothers, our fathers, sons, are all going to the front line, but Yair is still not here. It does not help build trust in the leadership of the country.’

Israeli soldiers blast Benjamin Netanyahu’s son Yair, 32, for ‘abandoning’ them by staying in Miami while 360,000 reservists are called up to fight against Hamas, 24 October 2023

There should not be any discussion of one single #American soldier being sent to the #MiddleEast until every single #Jew #resident in the #USA between the ages of 18 and 40 has been sent there first. There is absolutely no reason to defend a #nation that literally refuses to defend itself.

And the fact that #Netanyahu’s own son is living the #high-life in Miami while his father #screeches about Hamas and Hezbollah should be sufficient cause to ignore all of the non-stop #propaganda. If it’s not their problem, it certainly isn’t ours.

The #political #battle for #gay #rights is over & won. #Homosexuals now have all the same rights & protections as #heterosexuals in nearly all (if not all) #Western nations. #Time to stand down. #Equality under secular #law has been #achieved & there is no longer a political battle to #fight. We can't force people to like #homosexuality, but we have ensured that #homosexual rights are enshrined in #secular law.

#Government cannot offer more than #equality under the law. Pushing for #social #acceptance of homosexuality using government #power is an #abuse of government power. Promoting homosexuality to #children is highly #inappropriate & #counterproductive. #Obnoxious, overly-sexualized "#pride parades" are antagonistic & as a political #tool are #superfluous.

Why I #Quit #ElonMusk’s #Twitter

source: https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/why-i-quit-elon-musks-twitter

To the extent that people remain active on Twitter, they preserve the fragile viability of Musk’s gambit. The illusory sense of community that still lingers on the platform is one of Musk’s most significant assets. No matter which side prevails, the true victor in any war is the person selling weapons to both sides. It seems likely that this experiment will conclude with bankruptcy and Twitter falling into the hands of creditors who will have their own ideas of what it should be and whom it should serve. But at least in the interim it’s worth keeping in mind that some battles are simply not worth fighting, some battles must be fought, but none are worth fighting on terms set by those who win by having the conflict drag on endlessly.
