@jimothyhalpbert@TheDemCoalition I, too, stand with the good people of Palestine and I stand with the good people of Israel. All who fuel the conflict are bad/evil on both sides. Its time to accept reality that the two peoples need to co-exist. Lets all help it along.
@NicholasChacon9@MarcACaputo That was Obama. The left called him the deporter in chief. However no spectacle. Focused on the true baddies. Had comprehensive bill shot down by Republicans via Hastert (Pedophile) rule. Can’t make it up.
At long last, the UN Human Rights Council has formally acknowledged that Hamas in Gaza carried out executions, torture, improperly used medical facilities for terror purposes, and engaged in violent abuses against women and children after October 7. The report captures only a fraction of what actually occurred, in part because documenting these crimes is extraordinarily difficult and because Gazans fear retaliation if they report anything to the UN or other investigators. The findings on Hamas were buried beneath a long section on Israeli settler abuses in the West Bank, but even so, this marks a significant shift for an international body that has long struggled to speak plainly about Hamas’s brutality in Gaza.
Most importantly, the report acknowledges but barely scratches the surface of how extensively Hamas has weaponized Gaza’s medical infrastructure, embedding fighters in hospitals, using patients as shields, and turning civilian facilities into operational hubs. The UN even notes that Doctors Without Borders evacuated non-essential staff from Nasser Hospital because Hamas was interfering with the hospital’s operations.
When I shared this information, including testimonies from Gazans who documented Hamas’s fascistic behavior inside hospitals, and photos of fighters emerging from Nasser Hospital after the ceasefire, the online “pro-Palestine” chorus had nothing to offer except accusations of Zionist collaboration, accusations of betrayal, and personal insults. This UN report is an indictment not only of Hamas, a violent extremist terror organization responsible for immense suffering, but also of every activist, journalist, and academic who chose to look away. It shows that Hamas’s crimes were so egregious, so undeniable, that even a slow, hesitant, and often ineffectual body like the UNHRC could no longer pretend not to see them.
Shame on anyone who still defends Hamas or ever believed its violence constituted “resistance” on behalf of the Palestinian people.
@JasonJournoDC Delusional lunacy and grift with all the paid for blue checks clapping like seals on this thread. Our devolution on display. A serious republic can’t sustain this long term. We are in trouble.
@fyllo87@atrupar On top of that, the Demagogue drafted off his excellent recovery from a cataclysmic financial crisis. So much so, that low information voters credited that economy with the reason they ignored the wretched features of the Demagogue and voted him into second term.
Never forget - inflation was TRENDING DOWNWARDS, trending towards the Fed’s target rate of 2%, and THE US ECONOMY WAS TRENDING TOWARDS NORMALIZATION FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2019
And the dumbest fucking people in the world voted for a guy who has completely single-handedly reversed those trends thru his own domestic and foreign policy decisions

@crispyadjunct@Joe_Roberts01 Why? They were programed, ghettoized and ultimately slaughtered there after being invited in by Polish kings during feudalism to move the country into Mercantilism. After they did, they were used as convenient scapegoats by the elite.
@atrupar The delusional levels of Narcissism are at the heart of it all. Too bad Conservatives and Right Wingers only cared about character when it came to the struggles of African American's in this country.
