See if this bullet point summary is honest for you:
• PA takes over governance in 2005 after Israel pulls out 9,000 settlers.
• Hamas clashes with Palestinian leaders.
• Hamas takes control in 2006. No elections since.
• Hamas is backed by Iran (money, weapons, etc)
• Israel enacted blockade in 2007. Egypt also enforces. Many international groups are critical.
• Palestinians are basically split on who should govern between PA and Hamas. Support waxes / wants depending on critical events.
• The blockade has devastated Gaza economy, opportunity.
• Israel's control of movement in/out of Gaza is extremely restricted.
“We have to fight with weapons that apply to the battlefield, and the most important ones are on social media,” he said, singling out X and TikTok. He then lashed out at what he called “the woke right — or the woke Reich,” dismissing them as “insane” and “lunatics.”
If Xi Jinping said this, everyone would be losing their minds. Whatever context it is- and he can lean back on saying he means via propaganda- it is highly out of place for a foreign leader to think he deserves the ability to go after American opinion in this way.
Let me make sure I get the gist, here.
he wants to do battle on social media with woke conservatives???
As I typed that out, I scrunched my brow because that doesn't sound right.
Do I understand the reference to woke, right SM personalities?If he had provided you the full comment it would’ve made more sense. He’s talking about Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson and about the need to fight their narrative. His literal audience at the time was a group of social media influencers. So far anyone living in reality the message was obvious and clear.
I’ll take saving the thousands of Americans and the 10’s of billions maybe even hundreds of billions wastedEven post 9/11 idk that it was. There’s too many variables to unpack to pretend we know exactly what would have happened. I think limiting Russian influence is a good thing and if Clinton would have taken out Biden, 9/11 likely never occurs.
