n —Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was defiant in his remarks to a joint meeting of Congress on Wednesday afternoon as he sought to shore up support for Israel's 10-month war against Hamas in Gaza, while railing against those who have protested the conflict.

"We meet today at a crossroads of history. Our world is in upheaval," Netanyahu said. "In the Middle East, Iran's axis of terror confronts America, Israel and our Arab friends. This is not a clash of civilizations. It's a clash between barbarism and civilization. It's a clash between those who glorify death and those who sanctify life. For the forces of civilization to triumph, America and Israel must stand together."

“[T]he useful idiots, the leftists who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or Communist or whatever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. [...] They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. For example, your leftists in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed any more. They know too much. Some of them, when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist-Leninists come to power—obviously they get offended—they think that they will come to power. That will never happen, of course. They will be lined up against the wall and shot.”
― Yuri Bezmenov

...a very good thing!

I’m afraid I’ll have to disagree with the Prime Minister. I find these Pro-Hamas protestors to be useless idiots.

Excellent speech. But, more importantly, excellent reception by both aisles of Congress. America stands firmly by their long-time friend and ally, Israel.

That’s fine, it’s all over on X and Telegram. Israel no longer controls the narrative.
