What will happen, now that Israel has doubled down on extremism? Avigail Abarbanel:
Netanyahu really does represent most Israeli Jews even though some of them do not like him. But the reasons they do not like him are not what you expect. Most Israeli Jews identify with Netanyahu’s perception and understanding of what the rest of the world is like and of the world’s relationship with Israel. After all Netanyahu is a product of Israeli society just like I was, and believe me, when you have that kind of psychology and that incredibly effective, powerful propaganda machine all around you, it is easy to believe that what you see is really how it is… Israeli Jews have always lived in a psychological ghetto and it’s that ghetto that I got out of back in 1991.
Life will get very difficult for Jews in Israel soon enough, and many with dual citizenship will abandon ship. Those who remain will be the die-hard fanatics and zealots who are dangerous because they might have the psychology of murder suicide. I believe that before it is over, things will get really bad there and extremely dangerous. Israel will become much more fanatic and extremist than ever before with a lot less inhibitions.
I am therefore worried about the Palestinians and wonder how much more of this they could possibly take and what they can expect in the next few months and years. Israel isolating itself is more dangerous for the Palestinians because world public opinion will no longer be a moderating factor on Israel’s behaviour. And believe it or not, it did have a moderating effect. What you have been seeing so far and what Palestinians have been experiencing is not yet the worst. Gaza gives you the idea of what Israel has in mind for all Palestinians.
So the message to those of us who support the Palestinians is to get ready to escalate our support. It is about to get very very tough. With Netanyahu at the helm the end of colonialism and occupation is nigh, but it is about to get a lot worse before it gets better.
It really is weird, to see an organization that considers itself “the paper of record,” diving into the same groundless scandalmongering they did when Bill Clinton was president. It all seems very class-based.

Now, that’s how to apply your skill set!
He was supposed to prevent sexual assaults in the Army.
Instead, he pimped out cash-strapped soldiers at Fort Hood to make some extra money — all to his wife’s knowledge, according to a report.
Gregory McQueen, a former sexual assault prevention officer, made headlines when he was arrested for persuading at least two women to join his Texas prostitution ring two years ago.
The 39-year-old’s sexploits are now out in the open. He pleaded guilty Thursday to 15 charges, including for recruiting prostitutes.
Not only did McQueen bring the poor women into his filthy clutches — making at least one prove her skills in the boudoir by having sex with him — but he also sold their services at kinky sex parties he organized for higher-ranking officers, according to documents obtained by The Daily Beast. He also kept naked pictures of his prostitutes to show off to potential clients.
McQueen, a recreational gospel band saxophonist, was financially strapped, according to a report by the U.S. Army’s Criminal Investigation Command.
His wife, Sherita, whom he affectionately called, “Rita Rita Pumpkin Eater,” nagged him about bills. McQueen briefly — for about a week — tried working as a suit salesman at the local Killeen mall to pick up extra cash.
His wife must have known about his pimp side job, based off of texts he sent her about “clients,” according to the report. He also sent a picture of a female soldier from the Bronx, calling her a “Hood Chick.”
