UN Special Committee finds Israel’s warfare methods in Gaza consistent with genocide, including use of starvation as weapon of war | OHCHR https://t.co/N1vfDnhHcV
This clarifies that Bliden/Blinken/Sullivan/McGurk didn't support mass starvation of Palestinian civilians out of political necessity. Election is over & Biden has no political future. They did this because this is their preferred policy. They are the architects of these war crimes.

Maccabi Tel Aviv is well known for its violent, anti-Arab soccer hooliganism. They thought they could just waltz into Amsterdam with it and received a stern rebuke. It will be good when these things are seen as they are and freed from shallow, propagandistic historical analogies
Returning to Gaza now, I see destruction that defies belief, from Rafah, via Khan Yunis, to Gaza City.

This is in no way “self-defence.”
