    So he’s given a free pass to wear a sloppy hoodie and no doubt shorts when meeting a head of state, but Zelenskyy gets shit for wearing tidy fatigues…

      I agree Zelensky should be wearing whatever he wants, but he was meeting Trump not Netanyahu and came in as a representative of state and not as some influencer.

    What’s the message? I would feel threatened if I received a pager as a gift in that context. Does it signal ‘Bro, we are friends, trust me’? How can this be seen in a positive way?

      What’s the message?

      " Look at how little we care. We think so little of what you think that we’re going to commemorate the time that we blew up a whole bunch of people with communications devices and we’re going to give it as a victory trophy to this brownshirt shithead that pretends to be a working mans politician."

    “That was a great operation,” replied Trump, who gave Netanyahu a signed photo of the two of them together in return.

    Joking about war crimes aside, it’s astounding that trumps return gift is a picture of himself.

      Even if it had hurt or killed only the intended targets (who were correctly identified and all), and no one else, you’d have to be some kind of sociopath to celebrate something like this.

    Haha, war crime momentos make such wholesome gifts. It can go on the shelf next to gold plated box cutters from 9/11 and a gold plated shower head from WWII.

    I swear that week has broken something and revealed so much pent up cruelty towards my part of the world from American shitheads specifically. Didn’t even know they’d care to remember where we are on a map.

    And to think I’ve been eying the US as a possible new home not that long ago. Just so icky

    Netanyahu previously gifted a golden pager to President Donald Trump in February during a meeting at the White House.

    Can’t wait for that one to go off

      On brand for Israel though. There was a popular trend of making pancakes with Rachel Corrie’s face on them after she was killed with a bulldozer
