Once they kick out Netanyahu the new leader of Likud will be able to do a deal with the other right wing parties and the anti Occupation and Arab parties will be irrelevant again.

Bit more complicated than that because there is a secular vs orthodox angle going on that makes it difficult to have all the right wing parties on the same page.

Interesting show on the subject tonight @8:40 on PBS America (Sky 174) - Terror 

Quote

The 22nd of July, 1946. The headquarters of the British Army in Palestine is located in the luxurious King David Hotel. Members of the Irgun, the Jewish resistance movement, smuggle milk churns packed with explosives into the hotel and hide them in the basement. Thirty minutes later an enormous explosion brings down the entire south wing of the hotel. Ninety-one people die. Two years after the explosion the British leave Palestine and the state of Israel is established. What significance did the friendship between the leaders of the Irgun and the Irish Republican Army have? How did a famous play staged on Broadway and starring Marlon Brando contribute to the Zionist cause? And how do three daughters look back upon their fathers' involvement in the attack on the hotel? Part 1 of 6.

Israel covering themselves in glory once again today with the arrest of female Al-Jazeera journalist Givara Budeiri in Sheikh Jarrah, East Jerusalem.

They sent in female soldiers to kettle her while accusing her of assaulting Israeli soldiers.

Video footage showed no such assault took place though, and she was subsequently released.

Western media coverage of the incident? None evident to date.

High time the Western world grew a pair and stopped sanctioning the Netanyahu regime's brutal and illegal actions.

I see the JC is now trying to cancel comedian Rob Delaney for an (imo quite funny) joke, because it played on ridiculous prejudices towards Jews and he is meeting Corbyn at an event. Tbf to Rob this was in 2009 before it was established that acknowledging anti semitism is very weird is of course a form of antisemitism. The totally good faith comments underneath from the last few days are some of the purest anglo posting I have ever seen, personal favourite below

Some absolute gold in there. Chairman Mao-style bicycle ffs :lol: Up there with Russiagate as one of the largest coordinated propaganda campaigns against an individual in our lifetimes, unbelievably swallowed whole by a large number of people.

My favourite was the one where he selfishly ate the sandwiches put out for the veterans*. 

*It was later established everyone was invited to eat the buffet.
