Israel drops leaflets threatening Gazans to 'leave or die'
-
I’ve heard very little about the Ukrainian genocide. Oddly these people so upset about Gaza never noticed that Trump would eagerly enable Russia to “finish the job”, as Trump said about Gaza.
-
So what did you dorks achieve? Ukrainian genocide and the destruction of the us economy? Good job.
-
The voting statistics say you assume wrong.
You can count the 'rational persons' condemning them in words yet voting for the genocide enabler out of purely selfish interest. -
Were they israeli friends that mistakenly got confused for Lebanese or Palestinians by the IDF?
-
They themselves made it happen
-
I would prefer that the US president follow the laws and the will of the people
-
And when the US president doesn't do that, what will you do?
-
My stance was "Trump is going to make a lot of things worse, including the ongoing genocide in Gaza. You're either for Trump or against Trump, and if you're a single issue voter, you're either voting in favour of, or against, making the genocide worse".
Some people told me that the Democrats are definitely in favour of the genocide, but who knows what Trump would do! I told them everyone else knows. They told me it's impossible to know because there was no genocide during Trump's first term, but there was during Biden's first term. So Trump is a safer bet for single issue voters.
Regardless, single issue (non-)voters have succeeded in making life much worse for Americans and Palestinians.
-
but so far the number of dead children has dramatically decreased since Biden was in office.
The reporting on it has certainly decreased, but I don't think either you nor I can say this is true with any amount of certainty.
Besides, "Israel is playing nice now that they have their ace in the White House" isn't really the big win you make it out to be. Biden continued shipping armaments, Trump is doing that and more as well as actively making plans with Netanyahu for the expulsion and destruction of Gaza.
The only way we were ever going to fix this from our side of the ocean was by putting a warhead on Netanyahu's forehead but that was never going to happen with either choice.
-
Serious question. Is leaving an option? Is there some kinda line they can go stand in that will relocate them to another country?
Feels like that scene in Independence Day.
"What is it you want us to do?"
"DIE. DIEEEEEEEE!"
-
Israel isn't just playing nice, the ceasefire is ongoing. Hamas wouldn't play along if it was all fake. Every day Gaza isn't being turned into rubble is a win and lives are being saved.
Yes, Israel is doing this because they want to help Trump. That doesn't mean the ceasefire isn't a good thing.
Israel will face justice for its crimes, but that will happen regardless which demon gets elected president of the Great Satan.
-
We would still be supporting Israel with Biden in place. The only difference is there would be a few "we are very concerned" statements from the White House press secretary instead of Trump's reality TV show statements. But in the background, the same number of MK84 2,000lb bombs are being transported by the same military vehicles and they blow up on top of the same people.
-
No, the borders to Egypt and Israel are closed. There are limited exceptions for medical treatment in Israel. Egypt let in people with the right paperwork (typically by paying a bribe) at the beginning of the war.
It’s very unusual for people not being able to flee from a warzone. Not giving them the option to leave is against the convention on refugees.
The Israeli navy makes it impossible to leave by boat.
Israel could allow Gazans to flee to the West Bank, but so far haven’t done so. Egypt also isn’t interested in opening the border so far, for fear of the refugees not being able to return at a later date. Egypt is afraid of another terrorist group in its country, especially one that threatens the peace with Israel.
-
So that's your theory but still blaming progressives for the dnc inhiblity to actually win? (or do anything that isn't move right?)
-
Nope, Lebanese doctor who the IDF would raid in the middle of the night, tell him he would be shot if he resisted, hauled him off to treat some random prisoner, then dumped him at the side of the road when they had no more use for him. Happened ALL the time.
This wasn't during the current illegal occupation of Lebanaon, or even the one before that, it was the one before that.
-
Nope, you got banned for being a terrible troll, another in a long line of band and comment removals.

I don't necessarily disbelieve that number but the "Jewish People Policy Institute" is a reactionary right wing think tank that has great interest in pushing that narrative, so I wouldn't take that number for absolute truth either.
-
You post a modlog made up of you writing "trolling" and count it as self evident proof. I posted my words and yours that resulted in my ban. See the difference? The ego lol.
But hey, I ain't here to argue it again. I'm just here to remind fellow folk who hold similar anti genocide opinions where exactly you stand and do against those who disagree with you. Using your own words and actions.
That way, people rightly know not to trust you.

Ned Flanders' parents are essentially the democratic party personified. You're trying to wash their hands of blame because "Have fun dealing with the Republicans on this now!" but democrats did absolutely nothing to court voters during the election. On the economy, the biggest issue of the election, they lectured people who were struggling to afford necessities with "well ackshully the stock market and GDP" which has nothing to do with the average American's finances. Even now democrats use "egg prices" as a shorthand to mock people who cannot afford groceries and who might've voted republican.
It's literally "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas" as a platform. All they can do is point at republicans, like you are doing now, and shriek about how bad things are going to get while they allow it to happen. Remember how they shrieked about how bad trump was and how much we have to defeat trump during the 2020 election? They went on and on about how many illegal things trump did and then when they got into office, they put in the milquetoast merrick garland as attorney general who did NOTHING for four years. Now we have trump again.
You can't just dismiss this as "that's in the past" because democrats will continue being spineless losers until the end of time because that is their role in this puppet show that the rich put on for us to make us think we have a choice in the matter with this sham of a "democracy".

lol. The progressive purity testing is intolerable and insufferable.
