Jesus Christ, joe. I guess I was wrong and you haven’t been paying attention to the subject for the last 70+ years?
Likud poses a major threat to Palestine.
Likud poses a major threat to Israel.
Biden telling Israel to stop, without interfering. Complain all you want about Biden, but he just did what you wanted.
Biden did fuck all. Until there are severe sanctions on Israel government, Biden can fuck off.
Sanctions won’t do anything, Israel have their own defense industry pumping out legitimately very high quality and large volumes of arms.
I don’t care about Israel, I care about their genocidal government. Which should get ICJ warrants and a full set of sanctions.
Remember when the left wing used to complain about how the US used to be too involved in foreign affairs?
I do.
So we can’t ask for intervention over ongoing genocide that the US is funding?? Pull all funding from Israel, place high level sanction on Israel/Israeli leadership on par with Russia, and stop sending them fucking bombs. Stop trying to act like Biden hasn’t been complicit in what’s been happening.
Wow, glad he stopped sending some bombs after Israel destroyed as much of the housing infrastructure as possible. All while he continues to send weapons and now possibly F-15s to Israel. Fuck Biden and his monstrous administration.
All he did was create a headline. Nothing will come of it.
We demand him to interfer. We demand hi to stop sending weapons and to sanction Israel. We demand war criminals to be brought to justice, instead we get the ICC threatened by the US.
Also the proposal of Biden is practically the same as the peace deal Hamas has accepted a few weeks back and was rejected by Israel, only then for the US to send more weapons, which since have been used to massacre women and children again and again.
Israel has actually rejected this “deal” already despite Hamas being in favor. Biden can fuck off and so can the hundreds of his sycophants on Lemmy. Before I get accused of supporting trump. I don’t and I can’t vote in your bs election anyway so shove that where the fucking sun don’t shine.
After what they just did them just have radicalized way more people than the number of Hamas fighters they managed to kill.
Palestinian civilians would also be allowed to return to their homes across the enclave
Oof.
They’ll be welcome to pick up the rubble and extract the remains of their family on their own time and labor.
his agreement/plan also called for extensive reconstruction efforts for gaza…
Hundreds of thousands of temporary shelters would also be delivered.
Reconstruction will not be overnight and theres a lot of things like schools and hospitals to rebuild too.
The plan is to work with partners towards reconstruction. I know that terminology well: If I am to compare this to how this kind of stuff is handled domestically after say, a natural disaster: a lot of people are going to be left waiting a long time in rubble.
It’s ridiculous how much rebuilding takes, at least in the US, and how much racism and classism plays into it.
I went to NOLA like 5 years after Hurricane Katrina and most of the houses I saw in “certain” (poor) neighborhoods still had the spray paint on them from first responders. Also one of the (predominantly black) universities there I don’t think had fully rebuilt either at that point while the other (predominantly white) university had just gotten a new sports field.
I just can’t imagine being in a war torn place where much of the world hardly acknowledges you as a human and trying to rebuild your community.
It just blows my mind every day the cruelty in this world - and the fact that there are so many genocides happening simultaneously. I still remember when I was a small child finding out that WW2 did not hold the only genocide the world had ever or would ever see. I still can’t quite wrap my head around it.
For me it was rodney king, figured that shit belonged back in the 1800s and we weren’t a bunch of fucking barbarians any more. It’s hard, coming from what should be, into what is.
