If they think their intel failure is bad for business, wait ’till they get their fresh servings of Boycotts, Divestments, and Sanctions for the crimes against humanity that they’re committing right now.
In most US states boycotts of Israel are illegal. And forget sanctions or the biggest economy will retaliate. There's a reason Israeli officials are not afraid looking like nasty war criminals on TV: they have no reason to be.
This is a clear example of how the the US is complicit in what is happening right now. We helped set the stage for this.
And in almost all instances the courts have ruled that anti-BDS laws are unconstitutional under the first amendment.
Those laws are just grandstanding.
Man, I wish you would've said "all" not "almost all". It's clearly a violation of the first amendment and not even a good one. Hate speech laws against antisemitism I'd be fine with, but not this.
I agree, it's clearly a violation. But I don't think the 5th Circuit cares about the constitution. So rather than look up every single case, I just assumed some court made an insane ruling.
Not true.

Oh, you mean you can't get to prison, you just can't get hired?
Hahaha, you think people care... This is just Israel defending themselves and that's the only narrative that matters
Uh-huh. The world is collecting the receipts: List of war crimes and crimes qualifying as genocide committed by Israel in Gaza since 7th October 2023
Remember when Hezbollah kicked your @ss?
You and I (and everyone else) have very different definitions of “defending”.
You don’t warn attackers that you are about to bombard their position.
You don’t tell attackers where to retreat through and then bomb that position.
After the initial horrible attack by hamas, Israel has gone on the offensive and are the attackers.
oh 100%, this is just Israel excuse to turn Gaza to glass. I think people missed the point of the comment, the media and Israel's allies will push the defense narrative so anything they do now will be without any repercussions.
