Abu Shabab published an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal on 24 July 2025

Ok that bit made me laugh a little.

Could they have at least put it in the soldier’s backpack or something? Anywhere other than the middle of the torso, at least.

I guess that’s why there was such strict censorship in Israel about the Iranian missile strikes.

Israel with use every excuse the can to keep the genocide going.

The way they pretend to have learned not to oppress people after colonialism ended while still benefitting from neocolonialism will always infuriate me.

I had no idea why someone would even bother to assinate a guy like Kirk, but when you put it like that it makes a lot of sense.

It’s going to be a total disaster for both the people of Gaza and the IOF.

I think the present tense is a bit optimistic.

Israel is the west’s testing ground for surveillance tech. They probably have the best intelligence in the world. Not to mention the US share practically everything they know with the Israelis

On the other hand, I’m also surprised that the resistance can still fight after all these decapitation strikes. It makes me doubt if decapitation strikes even work.

Supremely cucked.

Even if they don’t betray you (very unlikely) I’m not sure why anyone from the global south would want to get closer to the EU or US. They genuinely don’t have much to offer economically over China at this point.

I doubt it. Most protests in Israel have been for negotiating the release of Israeli hostages. There has been any explicitly anti-genocide protests in Israel at all, to my knowledge.

It’s amazing how the resistance in still able to fight after all this time.

I wish China would just completely cut off these resources, but it’s a good start.

It’s been said before, but Israel really is a Starship Troopers like society.

Fascinating stuff. I’m amazed that people are able to conduct surveys in Gaza at all. I think the thing that surprised me most is that Gazans still believe in armed resistance and that not many of them think Israel will win, even during this genocide.

The people of Gaza already elected Hamas before and the west ignored it. They’re also the closest thing to a Palestinian military. These proposals by the west are worse than the two state solution, they may as well just let Israel annex both Gaza and the west bank.

That’s my favourite.

“America can be described in one word (inaudible muttering).” Is another good one.

That’s been the Zionist stance on antisemitism for the movement’s entire history.

It’s almost certainly 4 times what this study claims.
