Gaza War, Part 3

[Anonymous]

Both sides must be held accountable. Instead this government keeps funding BOTH sides! What else do you need to know?

If you'd have listened to us for one second, you'd have known we were highly critical of Netanyahu all along.

This doesn't make us turn against Israel. When you weren't shouting at us and calling us horrible names, we were trying to explain our point of view. But none of you listen.

You were “highly critical”, but you did nothing.

You have been the bystanders to this all along— the exact bystanders who have been condemned in every other horror of this and the last century.

what the f do you wnt us to do? march with the ceasefire now people who target jewish-owned businesses and are so polarizing that they're actually turning people away from their cause?

guess what - we're jewish, not israeli. and even israelis, protesting by the thousands, haven't been able to get netanyahu to change/

i guess we could target our space lasers right at bibi's house - you're right, we should have thought of that earlier.

Well, if Israelis, in a democracy, can't get rid of Bibi, how do you expect Gazans to get rid of Hamas?

THEY CAN WHEN THERE IS AN ELECTION

There are thousands and thousands of Israels out in the street protesting Netanyahu and protesting this war, and protesting to try to get the government to do more to get the hostages back.

Why do Israelis keep electing him?

why are americans ok with withholding their vote for biden over the war in Gaza, which they know will hand the election to Trump, who incited violence to overthrow the election he lost and is a known threat to democracy and women?

Why are Biden and the DNC elites willing to elect Trump rather than ditch supporting Bibi, Israel and the ongoing genocide in Gaza?

No, go back and answer the question. That will answer this question.

Apparently Biden and Democrats believe supporting Israel is more important than maintaining America's democracy.

Biden issued a powerful condemnation of the murder of the WCK workers, but I agree that he needs to do more. Democrats are also speaking out more and more. On the other side, let's not forget Republican congressman Tim Walberg's unabashed support for genocide when he suggested nuking Gaza to "get it over quick." Biden and the Democrats may be failing on this issue and it's certainly very frustrating, but the Republicans are much, much, much worse.

We're all processing the situation, and this war has led to major paradigm changes globally about Israel. Its image is forever tarnished. Let's give Biden and the Democrats a little more time to catch up. Nobody wants to believe how bad this is, but as the evidence mounts, it's near impossible to avoid the conclusion that Israel is conducting genocide. I hope the ICJ gets an affirmative ruling on genocide out soon and that informs the Biden administration's policies going forward.

A powerful condemnation. Wow, is the next step a tersely worded letter? He is giving bombs to an army in the midst of ethnic cleansing at best and genocide at worst. But I guess the powerful condemnation makes it ok

You are absolutely right -- a powerful condemnation is not enough. It's a long, long way from enough. It's just a lot better than we're going to get from Trump. We've got two options at present: bad and absolutely horrible.

Biden is already beyond absolutely horrible so Trump will not have that much left to work with.

There are Republicans who said they want to nuke Gaza outright. https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/31/politics/tim-walberg-gaza-nagasaki-hiroshima/index.html

There are Republicans want Palestinians kicked out of the US - https://zinke.house.gov/media/press-releases/zinke-introduces-bill-expel-palestinians-united-states

Can you name any pro-Palestine Republicans?

Can you name any Palestinian-Americans holding office as Republicans?

You might not like Biden but to try and claim "well it can't be much worse with the other side" only exposes your deep ignorance.

I’m a Democratic PP who decided today after a lot of contemplation to withhold my vote for Biden over Gaza. I vote in NY, would maybe feel different if I were in a swing state. I totally recognize that Republicans are worse on Israel and basically every other issue. I’m trying to do my part to force change on this issue in my own party. Voting for Biden isn’t going to do that. Reducing his margin in a safe state is really all I can do to signal that I am not happy with his Israel policy and make him pay for it.

I doubt he cares. It just signals to everyone you actually know in the US that you give no shits about women's rights at home.

Clearly Biden cares more about supporting Israel's extermination of Palestinians than he does about women's rights.

Your alternative is Trump and Republicans who want to expel all Palestinians from the US and nuke Gaza outright.

This x10000000

It’s not more complicated than this

Your tax dollars always kill civilians somewhere. Obama killed hundreds of civilians with drones. Trump drone strikes killed civilians in Somalia. Not sure why you are just waking up now.

This conflict has killed more children than any in recent memory.

Do you not see that you are blinded by your bias??

Anything that kills thousands of children must be stopped and rethought.

Yeah amazing how it was always "Obama drone striked a wedding party in Afghanistan" except there was no bride, no kids, no trappings of a wedding, and all the people killed were military-aged males.

Justin Amash

Except a.) he's not a Republican (he went independent) and b.) he isn't serving in office anymore. He's as disgusted with Republicans as the rest of us are.

He may not do that, but he will undoubtedly appoint someone who will go along with his refusal to leave office next time.

That is more important than religion. Please hold your nose and preserve the America we know.

Cool story, bro. Did you think that was going to make everyone leave Israel alone to continue its crimes against humanity? Yeah, no.

Ever since the war started, Israel has dropped more than 65000 tons of explosives on Gaza, this is equivalent to 3 Hiroshima nuclear bombs, so that have effectively “nuked” Gaza three times. These explosives have been sold to Israel by Biden and Blinken, what were you saying about Trump???

Israelis are killing Gazans through disease, bombs and famine. History won’t be king to Zionists and their supporters. Bodies of thousands of children wrapped in white sheets, moms not letting them go because it was not their time, I means Thousands.

As a country, we have sacrificed our morals, our values and our humanity at the altar of AIPAC and campaign donations.

[Anonymous]

I'm so tired of people blindly following Israel. It's like seeing a bunch of ostriches with their heads in the sand.

The attack on World Central Kitchen was no accident. That was planned and then when it got so much attention IDF "whoopsies!" yeah right, gmafb.

Add to that: I don’t want my tax dollars used to kill American citizens. Not the American citizen hostages in Gaza (where hostages are being killed by the IDF bombing) not the American citizens who were in Gaza when the conflict started and were effectively abandoned, and not the American humanitarians who selflessly went to Gaza to feed starving civilians.

The driver was Palestinian. Suppose he was Hamas - why didn’t Israel just target him specifically when the aid truck reached its destination?

He wasn't. The suppposed target was an unidentified guy with a gun at the warehouse. That guy never left the warehouse and they did not know whether or not he was Hamas. Odds are he wasn't because it would be very normal to have security at the food distribution warehouse in a war zone suffering from famine.

The 6 foreigners were considered acceptable collateral damage under that scenario even though it was known who they were, why they were there, and where they were. Each of the three cars, whixh were transmitting a location beacon and coordinating their movement with COGAT, were tracked and hunted down separately to ensure that all of the occupants were killed regardless.

Hamas is equally, if not more responsible for every dead child in Gaza.
