This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

The uncomfortable truth about Israel is that it’s not just Netanyahu, it’s their entire system and right wing ideology which we allow to coerce our own policies and politicians. How many times in our lifetimes have we been told “we stand with Israel” despite Israel not once standing with us? Enough.
