I don't have time to teach you media literacy. Obviously you're going to compare resources, look for primary sources first of all and secondary sources etc. Ask these questions, could the person who sent the pagers to Lebanon know who's hands they would ultimately end up in and whose hands they were in when they were detonated?

There were at least two children murdered so not very targeted. In addition what if one of the pages had gone off on an airplane, or if someone were driving a car. This is simply terrorism.

several US officials told The New York Times this week that Netanyahu is "seeking to run out the clock until the American election" to secure a ceasefire deal that would release the remaining captives held in Gaza.

The officials also suggested that Netanyahu might face less pressure to make concessions for an agreement if Republican nominee and former US President Donald Trump wins the presidential election in November.

yup

Canada’s Jewish National Fund has tried to hide its support for Israel’s colonization of Palestinian land. But Israeli organizations are evading soldiers and settlers to expose their projects

To believe that Biden and Harris push for a real ceasefire is to accept the fantasy that they can be advocates for peace when they are already the primary enablers of genocide.

There is, they didn't want to hear what she had to say.

I think it is imperative that she win the election. It's not hyperbole when I say that a second Trump term could result in the end of organized human survival. Having said that I don't believe she will be any better than Biden. When I post things critical of Kamala Harris it's because I recognize how much work is needed in order to force her administration to be better than her predecessor.

If you think Kamala Harris is going to take action to end the ongoing genocide in Gaza, please tell me specifically why you believe that.

You have to be truly fucking stupid to think Harris is going to be any different than Biden on ending genocide.

In front of an excitable crowd chanting “USA, USA, USA”, Harris deployed familiar language: “I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself, and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself. Because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that a terrorist organisation called Hamas caused on October 7, including unspeakable sexual violence and the massacre of young people at a music festival.”

The references to sexual violence and the festival massacre have long been deployed as a way to legitimise Israel’s war on the whole of Gaza, which has continued for nearly a year now.

Meanwhile, Palestinians are raped in Israeli prisons, and Israeli politicians openly say this is justified. Harris, like most US leaders, had nothing to say about it.

Well at least 17 people are so fucking stupid they down vote an article explaining the position of people who don't like what's happening in Gaza and want to see Kamala Harris regain their trust.

Perhaps you're too stupid to realize you don't have to read everything on the Internet. If you don't wanna read it don't fucking read it.

Last week, the Israeli army unleashed a combat dog on Muhammed Bhar, a Palestinian man with Down's Syndrome. Muhammed called out “habibi,” or “my dear,” as the dog bit into his arm and chest. Muhammed’s mother pleaded with the army that he was disabled and posed no threat, but to no avail. His family was then forced to stand by as he bled to death in the next room over. How could the Israeli military target a man so obviously innocent and defenseless he could barely utter a word in response?

"By some accounts there are now 40,000 dead and many more under the Rubble. Entire families have been wiped out. Cholera, Polio, and other diseases are now threatening to wipe out more people. Surely there is no person reading this or watching the video that isn’t aware that Israel has been found guilty in the world’s highest judicial body yet continues to murder civilians."

"Israel’s 57-year-old occupation of East Jerusalem and the West Bank is illegal under international law, the UN’s highest court said on Friday"

It seems people don't like the concept of free speech.

I haven't read the plan but I suspect it's going to be very one-sided. Also the reason the Biden administration is trying now is because it suddenly occurs to them supporting genocide is not a great way to get elected.

Israel is a client state, Russia is a rival state

Hardly surprising...

Biden has always seen Israel as an investment which produces the best returns for U.S. interests.

In 1986, when he was a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, he opposed the sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia because they were not able to become “agents of .U.S interests in the Persian Gulf region.”

He stressed that his opposition to the weapons sale was not about whether the Saudis were good guys or bad guys, but about the ability of the Saudis to help advance and secure U.S. interests.

He emphasized that the “naked self-interest of the U.S.” should always guide their Middle East policy, and that his support for Israel is situated within that self-interest. As he bluntly explained: “Were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.”

I have taken pains to point out that Zionism does not equate Judaism. Three of the men from whom I have learned the most about this conflict are all Jewish, Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein and Ilan Pappé.

The US is the worlds only remaining superpower. Biden picks up the phone calls Netanyahu and says we are sending in trucks. You will not impede them, or we will set your economy on fire. He hangs up the phone and the trucks begin to roll. It's that simple.

The reason we don't build and maintain cities via airlift is because it's very expensive and very inefficient. The US should demand Israel allows truck transport in and out of Gaza.

Shouldn't be difficult to understand. If the main concern was saving Palestinian lives, the first thing to do would be stop providing bombs to Israel. You'll notice that's not even on the table.

Rabbi Eliyahu Mali and his Yeshiva are sponsored by Benjamin Netanyahu’s government

Yes it is, but actually doing some thing and staging some Hollywood air drop nonsense are two different things.

They're doing it because voters in Michigan and to a lesser extent in other states are refusing to vote for Biden. This has very little to do with preventing Palestinian deaths.

Children are starving to death, how many more will die before this pier gets built?

Hamas who walked away from the peace talks because Israel wouldn’t agree to the destruction of Israel?

Cite sources.

No it isn't. People are starving to death and the best they can come up with is to parachute 30,000 meals to 1 million people? I'll ask you again how many weeks would it take to provide one meal to each of the over 1 million people there? Does that seem even remotely efficient to you?

Children are starving to death and genocide Joe is providing political theater.

I find it truly amazing that brain dead liberals actually believe air lifting food is a viable alternative to opening the roads and sending in convoys of trucks. Do you understand they delivered just 30,000 meals in one week? Now do you also understand there are over 1 million people waiting for food. Do the math, how many weeks would it take provide 1 million people with one meal?

Apparently you were too lazy to read my previous reply, so I'll repost it for you. Save your speculation as to whether or not Hamas would be emboldened, it's meaningless nonsense.

What tactics has the West utilized against Russia that they have not employed against Israel?

Economic sanctions. Apply them to Israeli leadership in the military and in politics. Plus Business leaders and bankers. Prevent Israeli banking institutions “from accessing SWIFT, the international system for financial transactions, and restricting access to Western financial markets.” Ban Israeli access to international goods and services import as well as export. Let’s see how long their military can go without oil.

remember this started because israeli civilians were killed in a terrorist attack

This started because Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian territory and has violated every cease-fire over the last 15 years. If you think it started on October 7 you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

Dropping humanitarian aid from airplanes, or building a stupid pier is incredibly inefficient and costly. It's theatre to appease the liberals. It's designed to win back voters who are pissed off that genocide Joe won't take meaningful action.

Whataboutism

publicly shaming Israelis and Jews

This is about Zionism. It's not about Jews. If you make it about Jews you are falling for the Zionist tactic of equating the two. Do better
