Given the outpouring of empathy and care as well as the condemnation of violence from European politicians, can someone please inform them that over 35,000 Prime Minister Robert Ficos have been murdered in Gaza by Israel, including over 15,000 baby Prime Minister Robert Ficos.

"This is not the life of any normal human being. There is nothing: no water, no food, no health care, not even a toilet. My children ask me if they could just have potatoes but we have no money now. All we have is canned food distributed [by the United Nations],” she said.
“My children have already had flu, and fevers, and hepatitis. They are weak now, and there aren’t enough antibiotics, so I’m very worried.”

Israel-Hamas war: Biden is sending $1 billion in new weapons package to Israel, aides say

- #Israel is carrying out #genocide in #Gaza.
- Context! You must go back… all the way to October 7.
- Sure, let’s go back: let’s go back 76 years to May 15, 1948, to the #Nakba; the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people where 750,000 people were “expelled from their homes or made to flee, at first by Zionist paramilitaries through various violent means, and after the establishment of the State of Israel, by the Israel Defense Forces.” (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba)
- No, no, not like that.

Palestinian hauliers said on Tuesday they feared for the security of aid convoys to Gaza, a day after Israeli protesters wrecked trucks carrying humanitarian supplies bound for the enclave, which is facing a severe hunger crisis.
Footage shows at least one burning truck while other images showed trucks wrecked and stripped of their loads, which lay strewn over the road near Tarqumiya checkpoint outside Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

Joe Biden continues to fully support the Gaza genocide because he does not believe it will hurt him politically, and because he has no empathy for the Palestinians. This is the same arrogance that brought down LBJ over the Vietnam war.

Israeli children, likely belonging to communities of settlers and religious-messianic Jews, having fun destroying aid supplies meant for Gaza.
Useful context is that one of the most common one-liners I hear from Israelis, to this day, is: "the conflict will end when they stop teaching their children to hate us".

There is a weird talking point about #Gaza that people shouldn't speak out against killing people without understanding the nuances of the history.
When #Hamas attacked in October, no one said that you couldn't condemn those killings unless you had a deep understanding of history.
Knowing history is good but you don't actually have to know everything to understand that indiscriminate killings are a bad thing.
Analysis
"Israel’s Willing Executioners"
"Hundreds of thousands of people are being forced to flee, once again, after more than half of Gaza's population took sanctuary in the border town of Rafah. This is part of Israel's sadistic playbook.
"Run, the Israelis demand, run for your lives. Run from Rafah the way you ran from Gaza City..from Jabalia..from Deir al-Balah..from Beit Hanoun..Bani Suheila..Khan Yunis. Run or we will kill you."
"Run for your lives. Again and again and again. Pack up the pathetic few belongings you have left. Blankets. A couple of pots. Some clothes. We don’t care how exhausted you are, how hungry you are, how terrified you are, how sick you are, how old, or how young you are. Run. Run. Run. And when you run in terror to one part of Gaza we will make you turn around and run to another. Trapped in a labyrinth of death. Back and forth."
The student protest movement against Israel's genocide, apartheid and occupation in Palestine has now spread to Sweden, as encampments started popping up yesterday in cities like Stockholm, Örebro, Göteborg and Lund. The demands range from simply urging that the universities acknowledge the ongoing atrocities to calls for cutting all ties with weapon manufacturers and other organizations or individuals with ties to the ongoing occupation and genocide.
Power to the students! Free, free Palestine!
(The picture is from the encampment going up at Stockholm University)

I'm quite frustrated with the liberal news agencies.
I went to check on the report about the UN reducing the number of reported Gazan casualties. They reduced the number by half, *half*, and yet I only see this reported in Conservative news sources.... From a UN report!
Any casualty is tragic, but the idea that the number of women and children who have died is *half* the number they previously released is a huge deal, and brings the number of casualties to be much lower than we've seen discussed in this unprecedented, highly urban war.
I complained about Conservatives courting Jews, but I must emphasize once again that this is not on Jews to be courted, it's on Liberals and the Left to court Jews, and if they lose a generation or two of Jews to the right, I will be sad but it will be obvious why...
Left, DO BETTER. Report the news even if it challenges your narrative.

Israel is deliberately destroying the entire health sector in Gaza as only 4 hospitals remain operational. "If these hospitals stop working, they will turn into mass graves, like Nasser and al-Shifa," Muhammad Zaqout, General Director of Hospitals in Gaza, told Mondoweiss.
