Well, Bibi, when a genocidal war criminal wanted by the ICC for crimes against humanity for perpetrating decades of genocide is shitty at a world leader, kinda makes me think they might be a nice guy, especially if it's for recognising the rights for Palestinians to live.
At some point, Netanyahu really needs to consider the possibility that he's the one who's the problem.
You've gotta remember, he's not just a war criminal, he's also a boring domestic criminal. Keeping the genocide going is what's keeping him in power, and being in power is what's protecting him from prosecution for his crimes domestically.
Nothing screams "legitimate democracy" like allowing a criminal to commit international crimes, to delay their prosecution for domestic crimes.
It reminds me of Rome, circa 50 BC...
He knows he is. He also knows as soon as he's out of power he's up on charges domestically and internationally.
