    do the right thing, politics or no politics.. we need leaders who can work fearlessly for the people
  • @lastChang
    Why is the Chinese 🇨🇳 regime backing Hamas organization and committing Muslim Uyghur genocide at the same time?
  • @dxd42
    The RIGHT QUESTION is: Can Nethanyahu and his party get away with all these War Crimes, and Human Rights violations he are doing in Gaza?
  • @herticate8579
    hamas fell from grace, it endangered its population and knowing the danger of provoking massive retaliation they went with it, of course i am not saying that Palestine shouldn't resist unfair illegal occupation by Israel but it should try to do it in better way, as not to stoop as low as committing war crimes just like ruling party of Israel.
  • @itamar5096
    as an israeli most of us have been waiting for his leadership to fall for years
  • All the glory to the people of Palestina, Israel have taken even their dignity, but they will prevail. Real freedom fighters. Palestinians have the right to seek their freedom, as we did in South America, against the Spanish empire.
  • @johanponken
    Actual Israelis had said this: On the topic of this conflict, NO ONE, of ANY party in Israel will react differently. They will FIGHT!
  • @nnhh2267
    Netanyahu and HAMAS worked together
  • @ArabicReja973
    Best solution for this problem: Netanyahu needs to resign and go to serve time in prison.
  • HAMAS terrorists attacked civilians, unarmed farmers, innocent people, entire families were destroyed with exquisite cruelty
