Didn't the media pretty much move on almost as soon as Israel began bombing hospitals? Can't report too much bad stuff bout the "good guys" can we? Don't want to confuse the horrible oct hamas attack with the evil Israel had been perpetrating on Gaza for decades do we? Don't want to mention their goal has been since early twentieth century to restore their mythical kingdom of David?
I keep being told that it was after all their land first (it was not but if I give them that) then why don't the Hindi lands belong to the earlier Indus Valley people; the Japanese isles to the Jomon people; VietNam to the Cham (Cam); all of the Americans to the native tribes here before the European arrivals; and northern Europe to the Sami. I mean I could go on, but the argument is fallacious on its face.
So after granting the Jewish the right to resettle and breaking their promises of independence made by Lawrence, the goal if you go back to early Zionist writings a half century before has always been full restoration of all of the land Israel once owned under David. Again, even if you believe in the reality of David's kingdom, his son lost almost all of it but one city because the "other inhabitants" revolted from the davidic ownership.
As far as I can the only historic precedent for their return was an obsession that the events of the Holocaust made into dreams come true due to Euroguilt.
And the "media moved on"...after they assauged that guilt by granting them a nation (and a name that wasn't theirs but the name of those who overthrew the yoke of Solomon).
But I will give them their land as it was of ancient, but not the kingdom of David which was never ever theirs for more than a generation and his fool of a son).
And I can't see how being victims of a holocaust gives them permission to create one of their own.
But take heart, possibly their"kingdom will suffer the same fate as that of Solomon.
Or perhaps not...when the media has continually moved on.
The media may have moved on, but the atrocities in Gaza continue. Despite a January 19 ceasefire, Netanyahu is still bombing northern Gaza and blocking humanitarian aid. Under international law, an occupying force must allow humanitarian relief. Instead, Netanyahu is deliberately starving Palestinians, and the Trump administration just handed him another $12 billion in weapons.
The world cannot look away. The U.S. knows Netanyahu is committing war crimes but keeps arming him anyway. While pressuring elected officials is critical, we must act now to support Palestinian civilians.
All of the protests , although heartening, aren’t enough to dislodge or eradicate the cancer that people knowingly voted in. Only when it begins to affect their lives will they really scream. I’m waiting.
Oh the hypocrisy of it all. Wanting to cut Social Security, Medicaid and so much other needed funding and departments, but no problem sending that garbage, trump loving Netanyahu, (no I am not a bigot, I am Jewish too) $12 billion, to continue his disgusting attacks on Gaza. How do we stop the trump hitleresque regime? Something has to work.
Thank you for continuing to put this “out there” so all of us will know. I agree with Beth Jane Freeman: Netanyahu never wanted peace—in fact, he has ONLY done everything he can to stay in power and escape any Justice.
MLK: “the arc of the moral universe is long…” well, at this point it is too damn long for me.
Netanyahu never really wanted peace. It was always his intention to wipe out the Palestinians. He is behaving very much like all the tyrants who oppressed the Jewish people throughout history, from Torquemada in The Spanish Inquisition to Hitler. Shame on him. What happened to The Golden Rule?
Netanyahu and our Felonious President are cut from the same cloth. To them, there is NO humanity; there is just winning whatever they want. They are shallow, cruel men!
Netanyahu and Trump are only acting in their own interest so that they could stay out of jail. That’s all that mattered to Trump and I suspect Netanyahu too wasn’t he found guilty and his wife guilty of stealing money from Israel?

Thank you, Qasim, for giving us the opportunity to donate through this agency.
Tried to give but want to use credit card, not bank account. Couldn't do it.

Democracy is dead. That’s now obvious.

I plan to give, but one question: if Netanyahu is blocking aid trucks, how will it get to those in need?
إن شاء الله / ʾin šāʾ allāh
They have local suppliers on the ground and are actively working to end the blockade. This explains from our organizers locally in Palestine https://www.instagram.com/reel/DHEg68PTudP/?igsh=ZnBuOTIzZzY4OW5s
Your question made me think, how could, would, does aid get through?

Thanks for the donation link. Praying for an end to this horror
If all aid has been cut off what is the point of another collection that will not reach those in need?

Thank you
I would assume Gaza is in dire straits, and while the amounts are likely small, everything possible will be done to get aid in!

You are absolutely correct. I was going to say the same thing.
There is a difference. The Fapweasel is a huge hypocrite, totally osessed with wealth.
