Israel’s current public-facing goal is to indefinitely occupy Gaza, and their real goal is genocide, so Hamas surrendering would simply mean fewer people lobbing IEDs at Israel while they murder and displace Gazans. Israeli ethnic cleansing created Hamas, not the other way around.
I mean most of their immediate neighbors do hate them for the most part (Pakistan being a notable exception), and other than Russia and North Korea don’t really have allies, but they do have cordial relationships with quite a few countries. More importantly though, their non-flashy foreign policy also doesn’t make enemies. America’s escapades in the Middle East and South America have earned them worldwide scathing hatred China could never match.
And when it comes to Taiwan I’d say it is flashy.
There’s certainly a lot of saber rattling, but with very little action to back it up.
Not only would China fare even better, I suspect that it’d be much harder to say that America’s reputation is falling apart, because it’d be clear that most (or at least a good chunk) of the world hates America no matter who is in charge. I find it weird that articles like these try to paint a global narrative using data only from countries that were favored by past admins, and which would therefore be most likely to negatively react to Trump’s isolationist agenda.
Away from China’s what? China being basically an information blackhole and their foreign policy not being very flashy means there’s usually little to pay attention to in the first place.

In its latest survey of 24 countries,
Holy Eurocentrism batman.
Thr court has no obligation to delay unless they really believe the genocide is fine
He’s been using every trick in the book, and some not in the book, to delay his trial, but yeah it boils down to this. A lot of how he’s been able to get this far hinges on the courts and Knesset recognizing the so-called security needs of Israel.
I’m honestly torn between whether I want to see Netanyahu behind bars for the rest of his life or right where he is destroying Israel from the inside.
I’ve made this point before so I’m just going to drop this here:
Zionists like to Holocaustwash their atrocities, but the people who built and now populate Israel for the most part have nothing to do with the Holocaust. Prominent Zionist leaders in British Palestine were all there before the war, and half the population of Israel is of Middle Eastern—not European—descent. In fact at least at first (not sure if it’s a thing now) Zionist Jews actively looked down on Holocaust victims and survivors as weak diaspora Jews who suffered because of their weakness, unlike strong Aliyah Jews who would never go through such a thing.
Also, Israel had the underpinnings of fascism from the very beginning; this is nothing more than Zionism, an inherently fascist ideology, taken to its fascist conclusion.
Okay I looked at these numbers and holy fuck, the only Middle Eastern country higher than America is Iraq, with 3.0 vs 2.5 per 100k women. For context the Iraqi data is taken from 2013, smack dab in the middle of the ISIS reign of terror. Like this isn’t even a gotcha anymore I actually feel bad for American women who have to deal with this shit. There’s no data for Pakistan, but for example Egypt is at 0.5, Jordan 0.6 and Palestine 0.3. With Egypt (which is middle-of-the-pack for the region) lower than most of Europe, a whole bunch of people should be doing a whole bunch of introspection before crying about other people’s (admittedly vile) traditions.
they’re following some other twisted ideology that uses the Quran as an excuse,
Fun fact: The Quran doesn’t feature into these, not even as an excuse. My reply to the parent comment has more details, but people who do these vile acts take “honor violations warrant death” to be an axiom on its own, just as a birthday warrants a celebration and a sick family member warrants a visit. I mean, there’s a reason the words “Islam” and “religion” feature exactly 0 times in the article.
Note: There is exactly zero religion involved in honor killings; this is a 100% cultural act. Here are some choice quotes from Wikipedia:
Honor killings are primarily associated with the Middle East, the Maghreb and the Indian subcontinent, but they are also rooted in other societies, such as the Philippines, Northern Caucasus, Latin America, East Africa, and historically in Mediterranean Europe.
In French culture, stories about such homicides were romanticized and featured prominently in French literature of the 19th century, and “In literature as in life, unconventional women needed to be severely punished lest their defiant attitudes inspire further acts of rebellion”.[33] In Corsica, there was a strong custom of vendetta, which required Corsicans to murder anyone who wronged their family honor. Between 1821 and 1852 approximately 4,300 vendetta killings were perpetrated in Corsica.[34] France also had a strong culture of dueling meant to uphold honor, and France was called by the National Geographic “the dueling capital of Europe”.[35]
Though it may seem in a modern context that honor killings are tied to certain religious traditions, the data does not support this claim.[95][93] Research in Jordan found that teenagers who strongly endorsed honor killings in fact did not come from more religious households than teens who rejected it.[93] The ideology of honor is a cultural phenomenon that does not appear to be related to religion, be it Middle Eastern or Western countries, and honor killings likely have a long history in human societies which predate many modern religions.[96] In the US, a rural trend known as the “small-town effect” exhibits elevated incidents of argument-related homicides among white males, particularly in honor-oriented states in the South and the West, where everyone “knows your name and knows your shame.” This is similarly observed in rural areas in other parts of the world.
Provocation in English law and related laws on adultery in English law, as well as Article 324 of the French penal code of 1810 were legal concepts which allowed for reduced punishment for the murder committed by a husband against his wife and her lover if the husband had caught them in the act of adultery.[101] On 7 November 1975, Law no. 617/75 Article 17 repealed the 1810 French Penal Code Article 324. The 1810 penal code Article 324 passed by Napoleon was copied by Middle Eastern Arab countries. It inspired Jordan’s Article 340 which permitted the murder of a wife and her lover if caught in the act at the hands of her husband (today the article provides for mitigating circumstances).[102] France’s 1810 Penal Code Article 324 also inspired the 1858 Ottoman Penal Code’s Article 188, both the French Article 324 and Ottoman article 188 were drawn on to create Jordan’s Article 340 which was retained even after a 1944 revision of Jordan’s laws which did not touch public conduct and family law;[103][104][105] article 340 still applies to this day in a modified form.[102] France’s Mandate over Lebanon resulted in its penal code being imposed there in 1943–1944, with the French-inspired Lebanese law for adultery allowing the mere accusation of adultery against women resulting in a maximum punishment of two years in prison while men have to be caught in the act and not merely accused, and are punished with only one year in prison.
So yeah, this is a big problem in many parts of the world and if your reaction to innocent women losing their lives is to make a tired and irrelevant point, then please don’t.
I mean… no? Like, like it or hate it the Quran is pretty clear about this. If you disagree, then give me a verse number.
How is this news?
Because something new that plenty of people care about happened? Like, I do think it’s ridiculous but there are more than a billion Catholic people out there who do care what this guy says.
By not experiencing the horrors of concentration camps and genocide. Zionists like to Holocaustwash their atrocities, but the people who built and now populate Israel for the most part have nothing to do with the Holocaust. Prominent Zionist leaders in British Palestine were all there before the war, and half the population of Israel is of Middle Eastern—not European—descent. In fact at least at first (not sure if it’s a thing now) Zionist Jews actively looked down on Holocaust victims and survivors as weak diaspora Jews who suffered because of their weakness, unlike strong Aliyah Jews who would never go through such a thing.
I mean they never said a word about Jews, and the deception inherent to Israel from its inception to the present day is a fact.
Israeli report
Let’s wait for someone credible to confirm it, then. Oh what’s that the UN already investigated and concluded that no such thing happened? Then don’t fucking post Hasbara.
They’re going straight to the gulag aren’t they?
Fuck yeah!
