Summary
Elise Stefanik, President Trump’s nominee for U.S. ambassador to the UN, stated during her confirmation hearing that Israel has a “biblical right” to the occupied West Bank, aligning with far-right Israeli officials.
Stefanik sidestepped support for Palestinian self-determination, blaming their leadership for failures.
Her stance signals a shift from Biden-era opposition to Israeli settlements, with Trump lifting sanctions on Israeli settler groups and nominating pro-settlement figures like Mike Huckabee for key roles.
Stefanik also vowed to audit UN funding and block aid to Palestinian refugee agencies.

I wish I could live to see the day where citing the Bible in support of an argument gets you laughed out of the fucking room.
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸🙏
What’s left of it anyway : /
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
That’s a fun way to say no right at all but Israel probably disagrees
Sectarian violence should have no place in a secular government
Trump And the Gang…as a non north American, i knew my investment on a popcorn machine wouldn’t go to waste! Need so much popcorn for the next 5 years watching Trump’s shenanigans and the (north) American people doing nothing irl except commenting on social media about his BS and how things could have been better. WAKE UP MOFOS! This guy’s gonna destroy your country! This is no time to be a keyboard warrior!
There is not much we can do about it at this point. The citizens have made their choice. And the ones that made the choice are the ones with the most guns.
Fertiliser is cheap.
And now you know why the DNC was so rabid about guns despite there being so many other things that kill more people and don’t automatically alienate half the country.
Gun violence is a problem. The DNC chose to die on that hill. I guarantee that there will be more gun violence than there would have been as the fucking shitbag Nazi’s keep doing there thing. There are a surprising number of people who will never vote Democrat because “they will take my guns away”.
This was an issue chosen to keep the US divided and ensure that the half that really oppose the oligarchy are not the half that is armed.
Good news liberals, leftists and all of you that are not part off the Nazi party, you can still buy guns at the store or from you neighbor.
Don’t let the Nazis seize power. They are 1000% more likely to kill you and your entire family than your chances of dying from random gun violence pre 2016. We are quickly approaching the point of no return.
Protect yourself, your family, your friends, and those that can’t protect themselves.
much surprise that Trump decided to side with the powerful and the rich
Both Israelis and Palestinians claim to have a “God given right” to that very same piece of sand.
I suspect that’s a large part of why this conflict has been ongoing for longer than most of the combatants have been alive.
Palestinians don’t claim to have a God given right to that land. They have a UNRWA refugee mandate to that land.
This photo is literally you
Remember everyone, the “ceasefire” that Trump “negotiated” (wink wink) is in no way just a temporary distraction, he’s better for Gaza than Dems could ever have been.
trump didn’t negotiate the ceasefire, and if he did that would be illegal since he wasn’t president yet.
(it’s illegal to negotiate on behalf of the US in a non-official capacity).They haven’t even stopped killing. Most of the death at this point is from injury, disease, and starvation, and I’m sure they are still not letting any food come in. And they’ve still been shooting people. And they did an air strike on a refugee camp in the West Bank yesterday, too, which they had been leaving alone for the most part.
Presumably, they’ll keep doing that until someone shoots at the IDF, at which point it will suddenly become a big deal that “Hamas broke the ceasefire” and they’ll resume unapologetically shooting people at scale. Starvation and disease, meanwhile, will be doing their gruesome work throughout, unabated.
I don’t honestly know whether Netanyahu engineered the timing on purpose, to give an opportunity for craven propaganda outlets to make a big fanciful noise about what a genius Trump is because he fixed Palestine, unlike that loser Joe Biden. I could see it either way: It would cost him nothing, but on the other hand, why bother? I’m not sure he really cares what people say about Trump. Either way, he gets what he wants.
More proof that Trump is ending the palestinian genocide.
What’s that? That’s not the right conclusion based on the information?
Bb…but the tankies pwomised
I mean the genocide will end pretty soon probably. I did try to warn the paint huffers at ml and hexbear. They don’t like listening though.
In that case, Spain has a divine right to all parts of the US west of the Tordesillas Meridian. The pope said so.
Bible is not historically accurate. (≖_≖ )
A work of fiction isn’t historically accurate?
I’m shocked, absolutely shocked, I tell you!
Christian zionism is also genocidal fascism and it’s the most widespread.
Then don’t be surprised about Muslims following the Quran to the letter
• Surah Al-Hajj (22:39-40)
“Permission [to fight] has been given to those who are being fought, because they were wronged. And indeed, Allah is competent to give them victory. [They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right—only because they say, ‘Our Lord is Allah.’ …”
The bible is just a story book, and if you take it so seriously that you support what is happening over there right now then you’re fucked.
Fight me.
