Benjamin Netanyahu Has Some Massive Balls

Comments made by the Israeli Prime Minister were so hypocritical, so insane, that there could only be one possible explanation. Benjamin Netanyahu has huge balls.

Last Updated on by Serena Zehlius, Editor

After watching the Israeli Prime Minister’s statements from a hospital that had been hit by a bomb launched from Iran, I know one thing for certain. Benjamin Netanyahu has huge balls

and he’s a d**k.

I heard statements he made to the press while visiting the hospital that was hit by an 800-pound bomb from Iran today.

I was alone in the house and I am not exaggerating when I say that I shouted so suddenly and so loudly that my cat dropped a turd from his ass and bolted out of the room. (I apologized to him eventually)

HOW DARE YOU?!” I yelled.

The AUDACITY!”

Not wanting to cut a good mental breakdown short, I continued my self-commentary all the way out to the kitchen.

“You looked straight into that camera with a serious f**king expression on your face and said the most hypocritical, ludicrous bulls**t I have EVER HEARD!”

What was my problem?

Benjamin Netanyahu has huge balls to be able to say things that accurately demonstrate Trump and the Republicans’ favorite psychological tactic.

Projection.

I won’t insult your intelligence by explaining why I freaked out upon hearing what I’m about to share with you. I’ll let you make the connections.

Then, for anyone who hasn’t been following the Middle East as closely as some of us have, I’ll explain why his balls have got to be ginormous in order for him to say these things and expect to be taken seriously.

To make it easier on myself, I’ll list the statements rather than summarizing everything in one paragraph.

I was yelling as he spoke, and being the honest, authentic person that I am, I’m telling you up front: Everything I’m about to repeat was said, but words might be out of order or different terms were used, but the meaning and context are unchanged.

Benjamin Netanyahu Has Huge Balls: His Statements

1. He said the fact that Iran bombed that hospital (0 dead, 70 injured) “tells you everything you need to know about Iran.

For them to strike a hospital full of sick, injured patients…” “There’s a children’s hospital (ward, facility, something similar) close by, too!”

Are you mad yet?

2. “They will pay for this. There will be retaliation.” I’m paraphrasing, but he was saying there would be payback for what they’ve done.

Now you mad?

3. He suggested that bombing a hospital was a war crime or morally bankrupt (something along those lines).

You GOTTA be mad now.

If not, continue reading to learn why you should be ripping out your hair and drinking an entire bottle of vodka in one gulp.

1. Benjamin Netanyahu and the IDF have bombed 36 of the 38 hospitals in Gaza.

IDF soldiers forced doctors, nurses, and medical staff to leave a hospital that had babies in the maternity ward and NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit).

People entering with video cameras later recorded the dead, rotting bodies of all the babies the IDF left there to die. One had bugs crawling on it (sorry, but #facts).

This was a separate incident from the preemies hooked up to machines that died after Israel cut the electricity near the start of the war.

I say Benjamin Netanyahu has huge balls because he’s condemning Iran when Israel has killed over 55,000 civilians in Gaza—18,000 children. (these death toll numbers don’t include the thousands of bodies that are still trapped under the rubble.

Israel dropped 2,000-pound bombs in the densely populated Gaza Strip. The Iranian bomb that struck the Israeli hospital was an 800-pound bomb.

Now, I will go one step further in case anyone still isn’t following why I freaked out.

Benjamin Netanyahu Has Huge Balls: Connecting the Dots

Remember the phrase we heard over and over and over?

Israel has a right to defend itself.”

No one else does?

One last thing. U.S. media is going nuts reporting about the 70 people who were injured in the Israeli hospital bombing.

They often mention the 24 people killed during Iran’s retaliation strike after Israel bombed nuclear sites, killed nuclear scientists as well as top ranking military officials.

Have you heard about the 639 people and 263 civilians—including children—who were killed when the IDF bombed Iran first?

No.

Lives in Israel: Precious

Lives in Gaza/Iran/Syria/Lebanon/Yemen, etc.: Unimportant, not worth mentioning.

It’s harsh, but true. Not true that those lives don’t matter, but true that our government, Israeli leadership, and the media behave as if they don’t.

How often has our media mentioned the 56,000 civilians killed (18,000 of them children) in Gaza?

Gaza: Largest Population of Child Amputees in Modern History

What about the fact that Gaza now has the largest population of amputee children?

According to the UN, Gaza is now home to the 
largest number of child amputees in modern history.

More than 10 children per day, on average, lost one or both of their legs in Gaza in the first 90 days of the conflict.

Over 1,000 children have had at least one amputation.

UNICEF estimates that between 3,000 and 4,000 children in Gaza have had one or more limbs amputated. 

Israeli civilians were killed: “OH MY GOD!!”

Palestinians (Muslims) were killed—ten+ times as many: “And?”

Help protect my mental health and leave a comment if any of this upsets you, too.

I realize that at this point, pointing out hypocrisy on the Right means nothing to them.

They no longer feel shame or guilt, so it has absolutely no effect.

But still.

Benjamin Netanyahu has huge balls.

He has to. It’s the only way he can say these things with a straight face.
