And Netanyahu is adressing Congress July 24th. Democrats and Republicans invited him to speak. Such bullshit!

please tell me there's protests in the works

[screamingintune]

I'm sure there are, there are also several (Democratic) members of Congress who are refusing to attend. There are protests outside the White House this weekend

I mean, majority of America does support Israel as sick as it is so this isn't surprising.

A lot of Evangelicals really want the Rapture.

[inkstainedlips]

They're downright gleeful about it.

imagine this being your worldview. just....absolutely demented. if this were to be true- what kind of god would have THIS as his plan for the world?

[squirrels_oh_no]

The Christian God is nothing if not vindictive to anyone who doesn't worship him! I SMITE THEE!

And they then all forget the New Testament and Jesus was a thing and think Jesus also wants to smite down anyone who doesn't have a semi-automatic rifle and a MAGA flag.

(I know this church is actually an offshoot of the Moonies/Unification Church and therefore even more culty, but you get my point I'm sure. This guy is Sun Myung Moon's son (the guy who founded the Unification Church) and they recently moved their congregation from PA to Waco. Yes, because of the Branch Davidians.)

it's so ironic bc if there's a rapture they're genuinely so hateful that they'll be the ones left behind

Most Americans support a ceasefire, something that Netanyahu does not. Also, a vast majority of Dems do not support how the Israeli government has terrorized Gaza. Polling has shown this for quite some time.

See, if they were smart, they'd operate on that ICC warrant and ship his behind right back out when he touches down off the plane, but alas, I don't think they'll do that because they're complicit.

[phililen3]

Of course they invited him...
