Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed President-elect Donald Trump’s electoral victory Monday, saying that “the time has come” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

He made the comment a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a recorded statement that he has spoken three times with Trump since the election and that they “see eye to eye on the Iranian threat.

    How about good work democrats for not actively opposing the genocide? Like, why are you so quick to blame anyone but the shot callers, playmakers and plan writers? Genuinely.

          Nobody should be genociding, that’s pretty obvious.

          But would you prefer a little genocide or a big genocide?

          I mean you personally, which one would you prefer?

            The Democrats in power killed your family. You ask them to stop, and they look away. How do you wait in line to vote for them? It’s not about they voted for Trump instead. It’s about offering people whose vote you want, a reason to give it to you. Sorry your family died but we aren’t stopping isn’t that

        I think my comment has been misinterpreted. Op said “good job” sarcastically. I too am using “good job” sarcastically. The Dems are the shot callers and play makers I am talking about. The ones deserving of blame due to their utter inability to denounce a genocide and instead promising to continue arming it.
