It is not the only reason. In swing states like Michigan it seems to have been the deciding factor.

However i doubt that even with a decent campaign of addressing the economic concerns of normal people the Democrats could have hacked it. With the steadfast support for Israel they have shown everyone whose ancestry is somewhere south of the European alps, that they are second grade people, easily dispensable if necessary.

Israel claims to be the state representing Judaism as a religion and Jews as an ethnicity. Israel heavily lobbied for things like the application of the IHRA definition of antisemitism by allied countries. That definition is conflating anti-zionism with antisemitism, which means conflating all of Judaism with Israel.

So Israel is responsible for some antisemitism as its actions cause hate against Israel and Israel works to make this hate go towards all Jews instead. This serves to purposes. The first is to always claim antisemitism, when Israel is rightfully criticized. The second is to hold all Jews outside Israel hostage to support Israel and to make them less safe, so they feel like they need to support Israel as a “safe haven”.

Israel profits from antisemitism and antisemitism profits from Israel, which is why some of the greatest supporters of Zionism have been staunch antisemites. Finally when it comes to people being attacked as “antisemites” for criticizing Israel, these are disproportionately Jews. Jews that are against Zionism are a great danger for the narrative of Israel, so they take special care to attack them.

That could happen. Last time the US started a trade war with Europe it didnt go so well for them though. And as Trump is looking at another trade war with China, and maybe also going to war with Iran all sounds a bit too ambitious at once.

The also refused to participate in a minute of silence before kick-off for at least 200 people who died in the Valencia floods.

If anyone wants to know what kind of people they are, this shows it. They believe themselves superior to anyone and they extend empathy to no one.

If France pushes for full economic sanctions on Israel their economy will tank even further. The EU is Israels largest trading partner with 22% of their exports (second after US with 26%) and 31% on imports (US second with 13%).

If the EU uses that to pressure other nations like Turkey and Azerbaidschan it gets grim. Of course the US can throw them a permanent lifeline. At some 50-100 billion $ a year of economic aid on top of the military aid. I wonder how popular an “Israel support tax” of 500$ would be with the average American.

This is the behaviour of the Maccabi fans on Thursday and Friday night.

That is true. Which is why it doesn’t matter if the bombs given to Israel are red or blue.

However now Democrats lost over genocide. Now AIPAC cannot play both parties anymore by making blind support for Israel the deciding factor. The Democrats lost because of Israel. Now they need to purge the Zionists and rebrand as the non genocide party, if they want to win moving on. This locks AIPAC in as being only in support of the Republicans, which limits their political influence.

If it wasn’t for Harris/Biden loss, there was no hope for Palestinians, or any other people in West Asia in regards to US policy. Now there is a chance that one side of US policy will change.

Well now that the election is lost, the Democrats could make true on their claim they would seriously end this, but had to wait until after the election…

I doubt they will, because every of their action has shown to be equally strong genocide supporters. But we should see the next days, as Israel still doesnt let anywhere close to 350 Trucks into Gaza, leave alone any into the north of Gaza. The ultimatum is running out.

Also as weapons deliverys to Israel have been and are illegal anyways under US law, now would be a great chance to get every Republican and Democrat who voted for them or approved them as part of the administration into jail and in front of a court.

Oh wait, they wont because breaking the law, which unsurprisingly helped the convicted felon win, was worth it, so genocide could be further supportet.

fighting back against hooligans who pillage and rampage through the streets is not justified?

A promotion seems due…

More like “its okay to be a Nazi if you are honest about it and you don’t currently plan to overthrow democracy before we are ready.”

There has been an even worse version of it. Kalbitz was kicked out of the Party because he lied about his “former” connection to neo-nazi groups when he joined the party. Höcke just admitted them, so he could stay.

This means the German government is done for.

This is good because Lidner has been blocking and destroying it from the inside for the past three years, but also bad, because now there is practically no chance for a progressive or at least non reactionary government to form after new elections.

This step would have been right 2,5 years ago.

which is a bit ironic, as the flag reads “Allah” in a stylized version.

Some did. Then most were happy to go back to sleep as Biden won in 2020. Trump was ignorantly considered a hiccup instead of the expression of a deeper issue with the US.

As the election today showed so did the US Democrats think things could just continue in the same way. And here we are again.

Also what started with burning books went to burning humans in short time.

If you were to protest the Iranian regime, you should use a flag of the current regime. Burning Quran to protest one specific Muslim country is like burning Torah to protest Israel. The symbol is specific to the entire religion and not some country or administration or so. So it is always an attack on the religion as a whole.

Also Islam and (afaik) Judaism don’t have a central religious authority like the catholic church does. So attacking the religion to criticize a certain institution works even less.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheism

Atheism, in the broadest sense, is an absence of belief in the existence of deities. Less broadly, atheism is a rejection of the belief that any deities exist. In an even narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities. Atheism is contrasted with theism, which in its most general form is the belief that at least one deity exists.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnosticism

Agnosticism is the view or belief that the existence of God, the divine, or the supernatural is either unknowable in principle or unknown in fact. It can also mean an apathy towards such religious belief and refer to personal limitations rather than a worldview. Another definition is the view that “human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify either the belief that God exists or the belief that God does not exist.”

Aside from that, whether you accept and believe scientific discoveries remains a subjective choice. In social sciences like history or economics it often happens that two contradictory views are equally legitimate. And again the look in the past is valuable. Many scientists were ridiculed, sometimes even persecuted for their ideas to be outside the consensus of their time.

Assuming that what you consider the accepted truth because it is the accepted opinion of our day and age could proof equally fallible like the ancient Greeks and Romans ridiculing the now accepted germ theory, for which we have ample evidence thanks to the development of microscopes.

So your original ridicule is perfectly viable. It just not only applies to the statements of Tucker Carlson, who i probably despise equally as you do.

But <insert western government> has reminded Israel to uphold international law and demanded Israel look into these things. Also Israel has a right to defend itself from Palestinians existing in their own houses on land coveted by Israel.
