I just don’t understand why there is so much humanitarian suffering when the Arab world could easily bring in aid through the Egyptian border.

Well, Saddam Hussein did exactly what you’re asking for and we all saw what happened to him. He was the last Arab leader to send missiles into Israel. Think about the fact that the US went after him almost a decade before Bin Laden. He wasn’t even a threat to us but he was a threat to Israel

I would argue Saddam somewhat may have pushed Oslo Accords along because he was a US ally with tons of American weapons from the recent war in Iran and he was willing to use it in Israel

Their end goal is to make them suffer so hard they get wiped off the map. Nazism in a yarmukle

Yup, we're now starting to see Biafra/Nazi concentration camp levels of starvation, folks. Wherever you fall on this issue, starving children is just not right.

This is the image I first saw and questioned.

Here are more horrific photos if you can stomach them.

Oh My God. Thank you for posting the picture (rather than a link), PP. I have read about “starving children” but this image is gut wrenching. I am going to go be sick. If your voice matters at all to the Israeli govt, please please do something.

We nuked and firebombed Japan until they surrendered. Israel is doing the same thing. Hamas has to surrender before things get better.

Ooh, can't help yourself with the genocidal Nazi-like rhetoric can you? I bet Ben Gavir and Smotrich are your role models

What we did to Japan is generally considered a mistake and a war crime. It's fitting you'd point to that as moral justification for your current crimes against humanity.

I don't think that's true.

Gaza has a lot of asbestos dust. Asbestos was used in roofing materials.
The Israeli soldiers are getting exposed to this. As long as the Gazans stay in the south they will be safe. Everyone else is at risk of mesothelioma and will be dead in 10 years
