    Wait so you’re telling me he never wanted the hostages back? Like literally everyone has been saying all along? I’m sure Biden and the media will just somehow never see this information.

      Ah, yes, because when you lose your ‘war powers’, it’s clearly the end of your ‘dictatorship’. By that logic, every parent who enforces a bedtime is running a household dictatorship. Netanyahu’s not a dictator; he’s just really good at playing ‘keep away’ with democracy’s keys

      After all, why bother with the nuances of governance when we can just throw around ‘dictator’ like confetti at a political party nobody asked for?

        -120 on your downvote score, theres something you dont see very often. I’m curious to see how low it can go-- this article is just a day old.

        Can we get to -500 folks?

        I’m not sure where you’re going with that parental metaphor, cuz that’s exactly what I’m doing. It’s absolutely not a democracy, they don’t get to vote.

        Yeah because obstructing democracy so you can stay in power is totally not dictator behaviour.🙄

              aw man, I hope his first comment can stay up so we can see how many downvotes it can get, for science. Mods please leave NOT_ROBERT’s first hateful comment up? This last one however, violates TOS when he called the other guy “someone with intellectual disabilities”, so that needs a flush.
