Summary
Rightwing Israeli settlers and nationalist Zionists are praising Donald Trump’s incoming administration, describing it as a “dream team” for advancing settlement expansion and undermining the possibility of a Palestinian state.
Trump’s appointments, including Mike Huckabee and Pete Hegseth, openly support Israeli occupation and oppose a two-state solution.
Palestinian groups and leftwing NGOs warn these developments embolden policies like home demolitions in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, as well as expanded settlement construction.
Activists liken Trump’s policies to a biblical realignment favoring Israel’s territorial claims, exceeding even his first-term pro-Israel actions.
So first I never said anything about Ukraine. Second,
He’s been accelerating it for a while, what with the ethnic cleansing of North Gaza and all that. We’re seeing the next stage in a genocide that was accelerating anyway.
I said nothing about Russia so I’ll just ignore that part, but pro-Israel? What is he going to do that Blinken and Biden didn’t?
i brought up ukraine because all the active genocides, the ones in Palestine, Ukraine, Sudan, the Congo, and the Gobi desert are interconnected. our world’s billionaires want us to blame minorities for our problems instead of them. i want to make it abundantly clear i think harris and biden suck, but it’s definitively not the same things under trump. the top ten billionaires are all already richer and our new regime will do nothing to hear us and slow these genocides. they will accelerate genocide and reduce our ability to find truth by inundating us with bullshit narratives about how it’s the left (the actual left, people like me) who are bad, actually.
this is definitively a worsening, and acting like it’s not means you’re more likely to get caught standing still when you need to be resisting. i am under the impression you think you’re helping, which is a good start, but you need to start looking at the bigger picture. get on board with that the modern world is fully interconnected, and that everything is about to get way more authoritarian than you’ve grown accustomed to, when it was already very authoritarian
