I think the biggest delusion among some Israeli candidates is that they truly think they can "rehabilitate Israel's image internationally". That if only Netanyahu leaves, Israel will be accepted again. Israel isn't hated by third worlders, communists, islamists, shitlibs and the fringe right wing simply because of Netanyahu or Ben Gvir or any other individual. Israel is hated by these groups for being Israel. They hate Israel for being a Jewish state that exists at all, not because of whichever PM who leads it. They hate the concept of Jews having a state in the first place. Everything else is just secondary. Even if you elect someone who wants to give away the entire Holy Land and reduce Israel to a Tel Aviv city state only, these idiots will still hate you. You need to work from a position of strength and respect and being feared by your enemies, not desperately trying and failing to be liked by the West, which thanks to mass immigration will always be a hostile place now.

Dear Venezuela, You have no idea how deeply we can relate to your decades long suffering. You have no idea how similar we are.
