    • 27.000 Gazans massacred by the IDF

    • An unknown number of Gazans killed by disease, starvation and lack of medical care due to the genocide. Could be many times more than directly killed by the IDF

    • People pleading with the US government to stop supplying weapons and funding to aid in the genocide

    • 8 People murdered by settlers in the West Bank

    • Biden writes an executive order about the 8 murders by settlers while continuing to support the potentially hundreds of thousands of murders in Gaza

    • Neoliberal establishment drones cheer as if he’d personally brokered a ceasefire and brought every murdered Palestinian back to life

    Edit: updated the ever rising death toll of the IDF atrocities to current number.

      And Ben-Gvir is still the National Security Minister, completely untouched.

      But at least he finally took down his tribute to a mass killer that’s been hanging in his home for decades. Small steps, right? I wonder if he ever gave Rabin’s hood ornament back.

      Quite an interesting contrast between how the US dealt with Soleimani vs. Ben-Gvir.

        The Israeli government themselves say that it’s two civilians for every Hamas terrorist but refuse to show any proof, so it’s probably MUCH worse than that.

      Oh those 4 people are going to regret not being able to . . . use US financial institutions. That’ll stop the atrocities.

      What more do you want Dark Brandon to do?

        Perfection?! Are you serious??

        Stop arming the nazis that are behind the settlers, that would make me happy sir. This is like shoot you in the face and then ask you if you need a doctor.

        Maybe stop supporting Israel in this war? Maybe use the vast amounts of soft power to swing the US dick around to stop a genocide? What the hell are you even saying, this is a token response that won’t matter at all. This isn’t “good”

          That’s not going to happen until is Hamas is destroyed. They fucked around knowing damn well how Israel would respond. Both have blood on their hands. All that Biden can do is urge them to not indiscriminately bomb areas with civilians. Hamas has been terrorizing Israel for decades. They’re not stopping until it’s over.

            Everyone including the US government knows that Hamas will survive this assault. It’s not about Hamas, it never was. Hamas simply provided Israel with the excuse to carry out an ethnic cleansing that they’ve been wanting to do for decades.

              Especially since every Israeli act of genocide just radicalizes more Palestinians. Israel is literally making more Hamas even as they ostensibly try to destroy it.

              That’s not true. It was Arafat who refused peace terms in the late 90s. You’re looking at this like it’s black and white.

                You mean after the Israeli PM that brokered the deal was assassinated a staunch opponent of the deal, Netanyahu, took power and refused to follow through with the part of the agreement where they pull their illegal settlements out of the West Bank that the Palestinians are the ones who refused peace there?

                You don’t get to wipe your ass with an agreement then whine when the other party abandons it. Much like their propping up of Hamas, Netanyahu’s coalition has shown time and time again that good faith negotiations is not what they’re interested in.

                  Yeah I can agree with that. I hate Netanyahu. I don’t plan on defending him but Hamas raping and killing people would have exactly one type of reaction, and it’s the reaction they wanted. It wasn’t about protecting Gaza. They knew that their attack would destroy it. It was about Iran wanting to maximize chaos around the world. Not all Israeli people like Netanyahu. His approval ratings have never been lower. Of course, those that do approve of him would love to commit genocide upon the Palestinians, but those approval ratings are in single digits now.

                  The invasion of Gaza will be temporary, and it’s anything more, Israel will be doing it alone with no external support.

                Why are you bringing out Arafat in the 90s? Your comment lacks relevance to what you’re replying to. Arafat has nothing to do with the fact that Israel wants Palestinians to leave Gaza.

            Yea I think Israel knew what would happen when they armed hamas

            And it’s evident the’re not going to stop until they’ve murdered all the civilians and their “settlers” (war criminals) have populated the region.

            Hamas today is as strong as ever, like every with some brain always knew.

            This is not Hamas, is about genocide Palestinians and stealig their land.

    Don’t worry bro, the bad times are over. We have sanctions in place against two individuals so the problem is basically over.

    I really love how they sanctioned the literal minimum amount of people so news articles could add an s at the end of settler.
