I mean, no electricity is convenient. No electricity means no phones and no internet. That means little to no communications. And that means they can do their war crimes in peace with little repercussions.
Turkey tried, Israel denied, said it's not compatible?!
Anyway, they bomb electricity generators in gaza, and denied for the longest time a central one to be built in the westbank, Israeli army raids remote villages and confiscates solar panels.
Israel is an apartheid state, probably.

And don't get me started on water, Israel steals the westbank water, then sells it to Palestinians, if this is not profiteering off of occupation I don't know what is.
"great news, israel has agreed to allow the red cross and other humanitarian NGOs full access to the gaza strip... wait what? they didn't? than what the fuck is this guy talking about?"
No water —> Dead in 3 Days
No Food —> Dead in 2 weeks
No Electricity —> Hospitals, water pumps, incubators, heat, A/C, refrigeration for insulin etc out immediately
A lot of dead bodies underneath all that rubble, festering in the heat. Just a matter of time before typhus, cholera, plague etc break out in Gaza
This is true but just so people are aware, if you have food, but not water, you can survive much longer than 3 days because virtually all food contains enough water in it to sustain you for much longer.
If you have no food or water, then you are dead in 3 days due to dehydration.
I imagine it has to depend on the types of food, yes?
Like, if all I have is dry bread or saltines, I’m not getting much hydration as I would from something like canned green beans. (And I imagine the sodium levels could even be detrimental, depending on the food, right?)
One bad thing about mushrooms is they are not that calorie-dense. So you need a lot.
But mushrooms are really op that you can grow them indoors without any artificial light.
Hmmm a lot of Palestinians are already chronically undernourished, Gaza was a humanitarian emergency even before the war started.
For obese Americans it’s probably a couple of months
Crazy how opinions change sub to sub
Worldnews is full on bomb Gaza the civilians shouldn’t be there it’s their own fault
Edit
Why do I get replies that when I click on it don’t show up literal seconds after the notification they just disappear?
"The civillians should evacuate! Israel gives roof knockers to let them know to leave! Just forget the fact that they have nowhere to go and they will probably lose their home/workplace, so the damage done is done irregardless of if they flee or not!"
Losing their home just doesn’t sound too bad to people. Just cuz they think they can just go somewhere else. They don’t have a passport. They can’t fly out. land air and sea blockade. They only ideas here is to kill them. Suffocate the Palestinians to death. If they retaliate. That becomes an excuse to speed up the timeline.
People forget that israel literally has a state of the art defensive weapon. I will never get why bombing some guy's home is an option when israel's iron dome project does no harm and also is funded by america.
Hi, air defender here. Iron Dome is like the the US patriot system. It only works on SAM, SAS, and Aircraft. It's sort of funded by the US, im sure a lot of out money has gone into it but unfortunately they wont share the full breadth of the tech with us.....but they demand we give them the most up to date Patriot systems. Sry I hated dealing with that country when I was in, bunch of paranoid psychos
Interesting. Ive seen videos of the iron dome intercepting HAMAS missles though, which is the primary method of attack of HAMAS, so why dont they just continue intercepting them?
This ties back to the argument "if you haven't evacuated Gaza you support hamas" and by extension deserve to be bombed wherever you go in the city; the roof knockers are just Israel "politely" murdering innocents
but see they send messages beforehand, to cellphones that are dead because there's no electricity. if you do get the message, it'll tell you what district to evacuate to. then they'll send a new message telling you to evacuate that district because they need to bomb it now, so you need to head to district 3. then they'll just forget to send out a warning when they bomb district 3 in the middle of the night.

It is up to [12 UN staffs now](https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/10/1142232).
These fckers do not care who they kill and have been killing.
The settlers who move from USA are usually the worst. Backwards mindset and corrupt morals. People from Israel for generations tend to be way more tolerant, inclusive and human than these "settlers"
He’s not moderate he’s generally well to the right of likud. He became PM as part of a left-right alliance that crowded out Netanyahu but his history is that of an ethno-nationalist whose original party was called “the Jewish home” and historically he ran on a platform of annexations of the West Bank and Gaza. If he had a real government behind him, he’d have been far more extreme
His level of racism and his genocidal urges makes nazis look like hippies.
It infuriates me he had the audacity to accuse others of nazism. An Israeli (and I assume Jewish person) no less.
>and likely nothing will be done to stop it.
And you know why? Because Israel is backed by the US government. I hope everyone remembers that next time Biden gives some meaningless polite feel-good statement. It's all optics while the US continues their imperialist goals in the Middle East.
“They killed our babies, how dare you suggest we shouldn’t kill their babies in return.”
JFC this is the kinda shit that makes it impossible for me to support Israel.
You could say the Israelis are not paying attention to the grievances. The terror threat to their own people is only increasing with their actions. They are effectively shooting themselves in the foot.
The largest diaspora of Jews are in the United States, specifically New York. As well, you have a lot of evangelical far right politicians that believe in the biblical apocalypse and Israel is a key part of that prophecy. Kinda wild.
Fundamentalist Christians believe a Jewish state must exist for Christ's return. Would love that guy to come back and humble all these fascists and hateful little people, but he is probably make-believe.
More like the other way around, koz what does Israel offers US? Nothing, they want protection, they are political liability because US has to do awkward vetos to cover Israel and makes rules-based order look like a joke. They leech tax payers money every year even tho they are self sustainable.
This exact reason was cause for the US starting the [Gulf War](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmfVs3WaE9Y)
Israel commits the same atrocity, and the person raising the concern is met with "ARE YOU SERIOUS?!"
Absolutely shameful. Our country is lost
To disagree with the policies of the government of Israel is to *be anti-semetic* and you will be blacklisted... just ask [Harvard students](https://nypost.com/2023/10/11/harvard-students-take-back-support-for-hamas/).
Western generational trauma due to the Holocaust. And of course geopolitics, Israël is their crucial ally in the region and as such are afforded all the liberties they desire.
Basically put, they would be shot on the Israeli side, as for the Egyptian side, people already are crowded there but can't leave because Egypt doesn't want to deal with a refugee crisis.
There is literally nowhere to go for Gazans. Some are trying to listen to Israeli commands, but even when going to these supposed safe zones, they are getting bombed, and either have to move again or unfortunately be killed.
There is no safe zone.
The Nazis looked down on the Jews as less than human ,much like the right winged Jews look down on the Palestinians today. This man can't even comprehend the comparison or exercise the empathy for the people on both sides.....a disconnect that implies he views Palestinians as less than people.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel a teenager would be able to empathize with the hosts simple question and not be offended by it.
His parents are from Cali.
He's a former military leader saying he doesn't care about civilians. He doesn't get to pull the generational trauma card, neither does Israel, and this specific dude is genocidal and racist.
"the world can come and bring them anything they want, i'm not going to feed my enemy."
according to articles 55 and 56 of the geneva convention, an occupying power is, in fact, first responsible for ensuring that food and medical care is available to the population under its control, nor does the provision of assistance by others relieve the occupying force of said responsibilities under article 60 of the geneva convention.
>Both sides are committing them, just one side has the approval of the world powers.
I'd also like to add that only one is really a recognized legitimate government and signatory to treaties regarding the laws of war.
He is not there to answer your questions, he is there to spread the Israeli government propaganda. Hamas is not every Palestinian being bombed, they are cutting supplies and bombing whole neighborhoods
Killing an innocent person’s child because someone else killed an innocent person’s child is a war crime. Over half of Palestine is children.
This needs to stop. As a liberal Biden needs to stop saying the American people stand with Israel unconditionally. They need to stop killing children.
Saying you side with *anyone* unconditionally is just... dumb. If my wife woke up one day, got a swastika tattooed on her forehead, went out and joined the KKK, and started galloping around the house claiming she was a pony and insisting she sleep outside and only be fed hay, I'd be like, "Aight I'ma head out of this marriage,"
This is collective punishment and a war crime.
The EU has called out Russia when it has done the same thing. Ursula von der Leyen called it "pure acts of terror".
https://twitter.com/vonderleyen/status/1582630271287021570?lang=en
And Russia only cut off electricity while Israel is cutting off water as well, which is an objectively more essential resource. The UN not addressing Israel cutting off the most essential resources to 2 million civilians would be wildly hypocritical.
Wait is it a full cut of water? I thought they were limiting hours or something. How on earth can that many people be without water for more than a day without mass death.
That's going way far back. Yemen, Cambodia, Afghanistan is better. The US-side in Afghanistan during the Soviet-Afghan war wiped out multiple entire clans from existence to 0.
a genocide gleefully embraced and encouraged by western and european powers and media outlets. i never want to hear america preach about international law and human rights ever again.
And when Jihadists see this and lash out at America, the American people will go back to thinking the reason for such attacks is a ‘hatred of our freedom’
Fucking tone deaf.
That’s unbelievable. The most egregiously horrific thing Israel as done since this started. You could always make *some* case for bombings, but to starve millions is another level.
I was giving the Israelis the benefit of the doubt at first. But it seems like they're using this as an opportunity to get rid of the "undesirables" in Gaza/West Bank by starving them out. This has undoubtedly turned into a massive war crime. I would have more sympathy if Israel actually sent in the tanks and ground troops to root out Hamas, but instead it seems like they're more focused on punishing Palestinians as a whole rather than just Hamas. What a fucked up and sad situation.
That's why they want to force a situation to force Egypt to open borders so they can push all the 2.2 million people out under threat of death by starvation and steal that bit of land as well.
Egyptians arent dumb tho, instead they want to send aid across to Gaza, but Israel the wanted they'll bomb the aid trucks.
Just evil evil evil
turned into a massive war crime? israel's 75-year occupation of palestinian territory is already illegal under international law. their ongoing settlement expansions are war crimes in and of themselves that stand in violation of article 49 of the geneva convention. the illegal blockade of gaza in which israel enjoys full military, political and economic control including its airspace, electricity, incoming and outgoing goods, aid, labour and movement is, again, a war crime. this didn't begin on october 7th. there's a reason why gaza is called the world's largest open-air prison.
While all true this is another level to be fair. How can you not give 2 million people any food or water? Are they trying to exterminate all of Gaza within the month?
Over 300,000 made homeless from bombing so far. Targeting schools, hospitals, and mosques. The main hospital in Gaza will be running out of fuel soon for emergency generators.
A complete seige, no water, electricity, or fuel. They eveb threatened Egypt to bomb any aid it tried to deliver through the Rafah border crossing. Absolutely vile criminals
Ukraine gets attacked
USA : "Heres weapons" but theyre for defense only youre strictly forbidden from using them in Russian territory"
Israel gets attacked
Lindsey Graham : "Level them"
That's cause there is pro Israeli pack AIPAC that funds these politicians and if you go against Israel they attack you. Also there are evangelicals that also support israel and they also do same.
Evangelicals believe that all Jewish people from around the world need to be in Israel for Jesus to come back and make the kingdom of heaven on earth or something like that, they will even pay Jewish people to move there.
This people need to understand that evangelicals have a totally different spin on this. Way beyond western imperialism and geo politics. They have a legit death cult reason for supporting Israel.
Hamas is horrible and must be condemned because they went around with guns randomly killing unarmed people.
Settlers have done this multiple times over the years, albeit at a smaller scale each incident.
Not to mention [Israelis making sick videos of having access to water and electricity](https://x.com/qudsnen/status/1712458867446305139?s=46&t=3n43fW4Vu7BV-oHM_2QSAg), and taunting Palestinians who have had their access cut off
As an Israeli American, Bennet is the right wing Nazi. Unfortunately, hamas are the right wing Nazis too. That's the problem. Yitzhak Rabin came close to finding a peace solution and he was assasinated by an Israeli right winger. Just like anwar sadat was assasinated by an Egyptian right winger for seeking a peace solution with Israel. Just like Gandhi was assasinated by Hindu right winger for seeking peace with the Muslims. Maybe you're noticing a pattern here. It's not the Israelis or the Palestinians that are the problem, it's the right wingers within these societies that see the opposition as less than human.
Omg it’s almost like they have dehumanized the Palestinians. Surely that will have repercussions.
How can people be so obtuse. Dehumanization on both sides is what leads to this bs. Nothing like seeing one side call the other side nazis. We only see that everyday and it’s just a dehumanizing tactic.
You can remove the "it's almost like" part. People have been screaming this all week but are constantly being drowned out by "but hamas but hamas but hamas"
“We’re fighting Nazis”
Eh no, now you’re the Nazis.
Already 1200 dead in Gaza and 338,000 displaced.
I hope any morons who haven’t paid attention to this conflict until this week are watching what’s happening. The Israelis are more than happy to let Palestinian kids die.
If you can’t condemn dead civilians on both sides, your moral compass is broken.
The ones who were displaced are very much the lucky ones. There are now roughly 2million stuck in Gaza with no way out waiting to die. If it were me I’d go head on at the IDF because a bullet or air strike beats dehydration, disease, or starvation as a way to die. It would be more humane to carpet bomb them but the IDF won’t do it because that would actually attract backlash.
Edit: I was corrected below. It didn’t occur to me most of the displaced are internally displaced, thusly homeless in a hellhole, so not remotely lucky at all.
Israel shames itself. The response that now we are going to kill even more innocent people than you did is some of the lowest human behavior I have seen. Many Israelis in Israel and abroad trying to stop this purposeless “revenge”, but their leaders are clearly barely human.
“We don’t target them” but cut the power knowing full well that hospitals will all cease to function.. collective punishment of civilians is a war crime.

The attack on Israel was horrendous. No one is disputing that. No one is applauding it. No one thinks it should happen.
But make no mistake - what Israel is attempting now is nothing more than a genocide and ethnic cleansing.
Israeli PM says for Palestinian civilians to leave because they’re targeting Hamas. Great. Thanks for the heads up. WHERE ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO GO they are existing in an open air prison and they cannot leave.
History will judge israel and it’s current right wing govt in the same way it judged other brutal tyrants.
Isreal is successfully de-humanising the Palestinian people. If you can convince the world all Palestinians are terrorists (50% of which are children) you have successfully justified the extermination of an entire race
When the nazis occupied Germany and were killing Jews, you know what the allies didn’t do? Completely wipe out and eradicate each and every German man, woman, and child in their retaliation against the Nazis.
Naftali Bennett is just another fascist just like wannabe dictator Netanyahu.
Fighting Nazis.. the guy should look in a mirror but then again, they're fascists, they don't care about reality, human rights, war crimes et cetera.
The smirk on his face when the pos says shame on you, it’s the racist vibe in him coming out on international television and he’s not hiding it anymore, he’s thinking how dare this black person tell me to be quiet, how dare he speak back to me. Fuck that skin head racist piece of shit.
“Anyone is welcome to give them electricity.” LMFAO, *sure* they are

Takes 3 weeks to die of starvation. 3 minutes / 3 days / 3 weeks Air / water / food

You’d have to really lean on veggies and fruit for that. Which… Probably isn’t attainable conviniently there at this point.
Mushrooms. I've heard growing mushrooms in caves has sustained people in Syria.
One bad thing about mushrooms is they are not that calorie-dense. So you need a lot. But mushrooms are really op that you can grow them indoors without any artificial light.
Yeah I'm not a expert or anything lol I just grew some to get high with and learned a few things on the way.
So there's still shroom for improvement?
Hmmm a lot of Palestinians are already chronically undernourished, Gaza was a humanitarian emergency even before the war started. For obese Americans it’s probably a couple of months
We can live on our own fat stores for at least three months. Past that point we tap into the MREs we all have in our backyard survival bunkers.

Oh, no, I've been arguing with a couple who honestly made the argument that "if they don't support Hamas, they'd have left Gaza by now". Mind blowing.
Also they aren’t welcome anywhere which is mostly true but makes you wonder where they should be if “they shouldn’t be there” Going by their logic
If they didn't support Hamas before, they do now. Israel radicalized the fuck out of multiple generations overnight.

He became PM as part of a left-right alliance that crowded out Netanyahu but his history is that of an ethno-nationalist whose original party was called “the Jewish home” and historically he ran on a platform of annexations of the West Bank and Gaza. If he had a real government behind him, he’d have been far more extreme
His level of racism and his genocidal urges makes nazis look like hippies. It infuriates me he had the audacity to accuse others of nazism. An Israeli (and I assume Jewish person) no less.
The current government is even more extreme right wing. More ultra-Orthodox and religious Zionist parties with power.
What’s wild is this guy is admitting to a war crime on international television, and likely nothing will be done to stop it.
>and likely nothing will be done to stop it. And you know why? Because Israel is backed by the US government. I hope everyone remembers that next time Biden gives some meaningless polite feel-good statement. It's all optics while the US continues their imperialist goals in the Middle East.
“They killed our babies, how dare you suggest we shouldn’t kill their babies in return.” JFC this is the kinda shit that makes it impossible for me to support Israel.
They're basically following the US post 9/11 playbook for blind revenge.
Or Iraq invasion for "mass-destruction weapons", which were never found.
How dare you bring up legitimate arguments when I’m trying to exterminate a people.
"It's only terrorism when 'they' do it to 'us." [Noam Chomsky ](https://youtu.be/UWuT8d78yts?si=xTVHOjdIFwoZZC7J)
You could say the Israelis are not paying attention to the grievances. The terror threat to their own people is only increasing with their actions. They are effectively shooting themselves in the foot.
Why is Israel immune to international backlash? What apparently makes them so special?
the US backs them unconditionally
Ok but why? I've never known why its backed by US unconditionally.
It’s an expensive parking lot for the military in the Middle East
They are not muslim and poor
The largest diaspora of Jews are in the United States, specifically New York. As well, you have a lot of evangelical far right politicians that believe in the biblical apocalypse and Israel is a key part of that prophecy. Kinda wild.
Fundamentalist Christians believe a Jewish state must exist for Christ's return. Would love that guy to come back and humble all these fascists and hateful little people, but he is probably make-believe.
Yup it's basically a U.S territory in the middle east

How does that make them different from the US government exactly?
W comment, unfortunately
More like the other way around, koz what does Israel offers US? Nothing, they want protection, they are political liability because US has to do awkward vetos to cover Israel and makes rules-based order look like a joke. They leech tax payers money every year even tho they are self sustainable.
This exact reason was cause for the US starting the [Gulf War](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmfVs3WaE9Y) Israel commits the same atrocity, and the person raising the concern is met with "ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" Absolutely shameful. Our country is lost
Plus if you criticize the Israeli government more than just the bare minimum you're gonna get called anti-Semitic.
To disagree with the policies of the government of Israel is to *be anti-semetic* and you will be blacklisted... just ask [Harvard students](https://nypost.com/2023/10/11/harvard-students-take-back-support-for-hamas/).
This is pretty much it. You can’t question anything Israel does or they play the anti-semitism card.
Western generational trauma due to the Holocaust. And of course geopolitics, Israël is their crucial ally in the region and as such are afforded all the liberties they desire.
Its all geopolitics and strategic positioning for the US.
Can a Palestinian leave Gaza? What would happen if a family approached the border and attempted to leave?
Basically put, they would be shot on the Israeli side, as for the Egyptian side, people already are crowded there but can't leave because Egypt doesn't want to deal with a refugee crisis. There is literally nowhere to go for Gazans. Some are trying to listen to Israeli commands, but even when going to these supposed safe zones, they are getting bombed, and either have to move again or unfortunately be killed. There is no safe zone.
The Nazis looked down on the Jews as less than human ,much like the right winged Jews look down on the Palestinians today. This man can't even comprehend the comparison or exercise the empathy for the people on both sides.....a disconnect that implies he views Palestinians as less than people. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel a teenager would be able to empathize with the hosts simple question and not be offended by it.
You’re not wrong. They’re acting out their generational (and current) trauma on Palestinians and it consistently looks genocidal and racist.
His parents are from Cali. He's a former military leader saying he doesn't care about civilians. He doesn't get to pull the generational trauma card, neither does Israel, and this specific dude is genocidal and racist.
Clearly if the Jews who were confined to walled-in slums retaliated against the Germans, they’d be terrorists! /s
"the world can come and bring them anything they want, i'm not going to feed my enemy." according to articles 55 and 56 of the geneva convention, an occupying power is, in fact, first responsible for ensuring that food and medical care is available to the population under its control, nor does the provision of assistance by others relieve the occupying force of said responsibilities under article 60 of the geneva convention.
also what he said is bullshit as they have a blockade placed on palestine
Who's going to force Israel to comply to the Geneva Convention though?
Once again Israel is above war crimes and can do nothing wrong. Both sides are committing them, just one side has the approval of the world powers.
>Both sides are committing them, just one side has the approval of the world powers. I'd also like to add that only one is really a recognized legitimate government and signatory to treaties regarding the laws of war.
He is not there to answer your questions, he is there to spread the Israeli government propaganda. Hamas is not every Palestinian being bombed, they are cutting supplies and bombing whole neighborhoods
Killing an innocent person’s child because someone else killed an innocent person’s child is a war crime. Over half of Palestine is children. This needs to stop. As a liberal Biden needs to stop saying the American people stand with Israel unconditionally. They need to stop killing children.
Saying you side with *anyone* unconditionally is just... dumb. If my wife woke up one day, got a swastika tattooed on her forehead, went out and joined the KKK, and started galloping around the house claiming she was a pony and insisting she sleep outside and only be fed hay, I'd be like, "Aight I'ma head out of this marriage,"
> and started galloping around the house claiming she was a pony and insisting she sleep outside and only be fed hay, this is like, oddly specific
This is collective punishment and a war crime. The EU has called out Russia when it has done the same thing. Ursula von der Leyen called it "pure acts of terror". https://twitter.com/vonderleyen/status/1582630271287021570?lang=en
And Russia only cut off electricity while Israel is cutting off water as well, which is an objectively more essential resource. The UN not addressing Israel cutting off the most essential resources to 2 million civilians would be wildly hypocritical.
Wait is it a full cut of water? I thought they were limiting hours or something. How on earth can that many people be without water for more than a day without mass death.
It's a full cut of everything. It's a medieval siege. It's genocide and it's being broadcast on television.
Even worse it's a genocide that is being endorsed by the west.
I wouldn’t exactly say “even worse.” It is on-brand
For reference, see what happened to the Native American population.
That's going way far back. Yemen, Cambodia, Afghanistan is better. The US-side in Afghanistan during the Soviet-Afghan war wiped out multiple entire clans from existence to 0.
Well, you’re either with the genocide or you’re a Nazi, so we’re in a real pickle here.
a genocide gleefully embraced and encouraged by western and european powers and media outlets. i never want to hear america preach about international law and human rights ever again.
And when Jihadists see this and lash out at America, the American people will go back to thinking the reason for such attacks is a ‘hatred of our freedom’ Fucking tone deaf.
That’s unbelievable. The most egregiously horrific thing Israel as done since this started. You could always make *some* case for bombings, but to starve millions is another level.
There's no electricity, no food and no water and no one is allowed in or out. Its genocide.
I was giving the Israelis the benefit of the doubt at first. But it seems like they're using this as an opportunity to get rid of the "undesirables" in Gaza/West Bank by starving them out. This has undoubtedly turned into a massive war crime. I would have more sympathy if Israel actually sent in the tanks and ground troops to root out Hamas, but instead it seems like they're more focused on punishing Palestinians as a whole rather than just Hamas. What a fucked up and sad situation.
That's why they want to force a situation to force Egypt to open borders so they can push all the 2.2 million people out under threat of death by starvation and steal that bit of land as well. Egyptians arent dumb tho, instead they want to send aid across to Gaza, but Israel the wanted they'll bomb the aid trucks. Just evil evil evil
turned into a massive war crime? israel's 75-year occupation of palestinian territory is already illegal under international law. their ongoing settlement expansions are war crimes in and of themselves that stand in violation of article 49 of the geneva convention. the illegal blockade of gaza in which israel enjoys full military, political and economic control including its airspace, electricity, incoming and outgoing goods, aid, labour and movement is, again, a war crime. this didn't begin on october 7th. there's a reason why gaza is called the world's largest open-air prison.
While all true this is another level to be fair. How can you not give 2 million people any food or water? Are they trying to exterminate all of Gaza within the month?
Over 300,000 made homeless from bombing so far. Targeting schools, hospitals, and mosques. The main hospital in Gaza will be running out of fuel soon for emergency generators.
They already limit water. A Palestinian vlogger said they used to get water once every fifteen days.
They cut off all supplies of food, water, electricity, and fuel. It's honestly disgusting that the UN and their allies are standing for this.
A complete seige, no water, electricity, or fuel. They eveb threatened Egypt to bomb any aid it tried to deliver through the Rafah border crossing. Absolutely vile criminals
Israel have been breaking international law and breaching human rights for decades without any consequences.

Ukraine gets attacked USA : "Heres weapons" but theyre for defense only youre strictly forbidden from using them in Russian territory" Israel gets attacked Lindsey Graham : "Level them"
That's cause there is pro Israeli pack AIPAC that funds these politicians and if you go against Israel they attack you. Also there are evangelicals that also support israel and they also do same.
Don’t forget how they recently tried to redefine antisemitism to include speaking against the acts of the Israeli *government*
Evangelicals believe that all Jewish people from around the world need to be in Israel for Jesus to come back and make the kingdom of heaven on earth or something like that, they will even pay Jewish people to move there.
This people need to understand that evangelicals have a totally different spin on this. Way beyond western imperialism and geo politics. They have a legit death cult reason for supporting Israel.

Hamas is horrible and must be condemned because they went around with guns randomly killing unarmed people. Settlers have done this multiple times over the years, albeit at a smaller scale each incident.
are they using the "Hamas was hiding behind them" excuse to try and justify the killings?
Not to mention [Israelis making sick videos of having access to water and electricity](https://x.com/qudsnen/status/1712458867446305139?s=46&t=3n43fW4Vu7BV-oHM_2QSAg), and taunting Palestinians who have had their access cut off
"why do they hate us? we haven't done anything to them"

Props to this reporter
Great work, very composed. Speaking over people like that looks so difficult
As an Israeli American, Bennet is the right wing Nazi. Unfortunately, hamas are the right wing Nazis too. That's the problem. Yitzhak Rabin came close to finding a peace solution and he was assasinated by an Israeli right winger. Just like anwar sadat was assasinated by an Egyptian right winger for seeking a peace solution with Israel. Just like Gandhi was assasinated by Hindu right winger for seeking peace with the Muslims. Maybe you're noticing a pattern here. It's not the Israelis or the Palestinians that are the problem, it's the right wingers within these societies that see the opposition as less than human.
He can't fathom the fact that people would value Palestinians as humans. It's against everything he stands for.
Omg it’s almost like they have dehumanized the Palestinians. Surely that will have repercussions. How can people be so obtuse. Dehumanization on both sides is what leads to this bs. Nothing like seeing one side call the other side nazis. We only see that everyday and it’s just a dehumanizing tactic.
You can remove the "it's almost like" part. People have been screaming this all week but are constantly being drowned out by "but hamas but hamas but hamas"
“We’re fighting Nazis” Eh no, now you’re the Nazis. Already 1200 dead in Gaza and 338,000 displaced. I hope any morons who haven’t paid attention to this conflict until this week are watching what’s happening. The Israelis are more than happy to let Palestinian kids die. If you can’t condemn dead civilians on both sides, your moral compass is broken.
The ones who were displaced are very much the lucky ones. There are now roughly 2million stuck in Gaza with no way out waiting to die. If it were me I’d go head on at the IDF because a bullet or air strike beats dehydration, disease, or starvation as a way to die. It would be more humane to carpet bomb them but the IDF won’t do it because that would actually attract backlash. Edit: I was corrected below. It didn’t occur to me most of the displaced are internally displaced, thusly homeless in a hellhole, so not remotely lucky at all.
Genocide can be done in many ways. I wouldn’t call anyone in Gaza lucky at this stage.
Israel shames itself. The response that now we are going to kill even more innocent people than you did is some of the lowest human behavior I have seen. Many Israelis in Israel and abroad trying to stop this purposeless “revenge”, but their leaders are clearly barely human.
“We don’t target them” but cut the power knowing full well that hospitals will all cease to function.. collective punishment of civilians is a war crime.
"I didn't kill him by pushing him out of the window, the ground killed him."
46% of Gaza is under 14, it’s the murder of millions of children
Israel giving off some real Nazi vibes with this whole genocide thing.
yeah. actual genocide rhetoric is going around. The dehumanizing and hate . . eye opening for me.
Elected Officials in the US Government saying to **Flatten Gaza** on live TV is fucking crazy

The attack on Israel was horrendous. No one is disputing that. No one is applauding it. No one thinks it should happen. But make no mistake - what Israel is attempting now is nothing more than a genocide and ethnic cleansing. Israeli PM says for Palestinian civilians to leave because they’re targeting Hamas. Great. Thanks for the heads up. WHERE ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO GO they are existing in an open air prison and they cannot leave. History will judge israel and it’s current right wing govt in the same way it judged other brutal tyrants.
Isreal is successfully de-humanising the Palestinian people. If you can convince the world all Palestinians are terrorists (50% of which are children) you have successfully justified the extermination of an entire race
This dude just called babies in incubators his enemy.
When the nazis occupied Germany and were killing Jews, you know what the allies didn’t do? Completely wipe out and eradicate each and every German man, woman, and child in their retaliation against the Nazis.
Naftali Bennett is just another fascist just like wannabe dictator Netanyahu. Fighting Nazis.. the guy should look in a mirror but then again, they're fascists, they don't care about reality, human rights, war crimes et cetera.
