US president Joe Biden said that Israel is starting to lose support due to indiscriminate bombing in Gaza amid Hamas war. The comments come after Israel prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu asserted again that US is with Israel as Tel Aviv aims to destroy Hamas and recover hostages held in Gaza.
“They’re starting to lose that support,” Joe Biden told a campaign fundraising event in Washington as per news agency Reuters. The US president also said that Benjamin Netanyahu needs to change his hardline government.
@ripcord yeah I know, it’s from the Persian and common in Central Asia, meaning place of or homeland. This is also why it was used (with a derogatary implication) in South Africa.
I still find it interesting that Netanyahu is using it to refer to parts of Palestine. Chosen for the same reasons.
As the saying goes, history may not repeat, but it does rhyme.
