Ehud #Olmert, the former prime minister of the #Israel: "The war should have stopped 3 or 4 months ago, and entering #Rafah is full of danger and affects relations with #Egypt."
"When Joe Biden met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his war cabinet during his visit to Israel, the U.S. president assured them: "I don't believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist."" reuters.com/world/us/i-am-zion…
@yuvalne@Jennifer It really makes me SICK to see this level of hypocrisy. these monsters terrorizing Palestinians on a daily basis, they spread the most disgusting racist and genocidal message openly and freely. They break international laws with impunity and pride.
and all hypocrite #GenocideJoe did was to create a diversion and put them on "sanction list" just to wait until the storm had passed. It is just infuriating.
@yuvalne@Jennifer@Morgawr Do you think the 2 million starving Palestinians, the almost 40000 dead Palestinians and 1.5 million homeless ones care who the US president is?
I absolutely adore cult of #GenocideJoe worshipers who acting like we should be thankful he is not as bad as Trump, as if Trump would have been any worse than Biden has been arming and funding the ongoing genocide in Israel and bombing Yemen, Syuria and Iraq for trying to stop the genocide.
Last month, communication was lost with 94-year-old Naifa Rizq after the surprise Israeli military invasion of Al Shifa Hospital. Yesterday, her sons discovered her home engulfed in flames by the Israeli army. Inside, they found her charred remains on her bed.
Israel is hiding their evidence of their war crimea by setting Palestinian houses on fire before leaving.
Sadly, the world is standing by and watching these crimes to go unpunished and unpublished.
@faab64 US destroyed UN reputation and authority and present themselves as the world police and only authority, so those crimes, and many others, will be unpunished because US regime is racist, genocidal, perpetrators of crimes against humanity, etc, exactly the same as Netanyahu nazi like regime. There's no justice in the world until the powers change. #FreePalestine#IsraelTerroristState #genocidejoe #StopGenocideinGaza
A massive military convoy belonging to U.S. forces entering from northern Iraq, consisting of 63 trucks loaded with military equipment, logistical supplies, and MIM-23 Hawk air defense systems.
@faab64@palestine@israel This is an illegal occupation of a sovereign country. Very clear in international law.
I am sure that when #GenocideJoe realises this he will immediately withdraw all US forces from Syria, being as how he is such a champion of a "rules based international order". #uspol#syria
CBS News: "The U.S. has picked up intelligence that Iran is planning a retaliatory attack that would include a swarm of Shahed-136 loitering drones and cruise missiles. Officials say the timing and target are unknown, but a proportional response to the #Damascus attack would be to hit an Israeli diplomatic facility. The attack is likely to come between now and the end of #Ramadan next week.
Another important unknown is where the drones and missiles would be launched — from Iraq or Syria, which could prompt a thin claim of deniability by #Tehran — or from Iranian territory."
It's sickening to read all the garbage posts about Iranian attack against Israel which has absolute 0 intelligence value, but perfect propaganda tool, draw attention away from horrendous war crimes of Israel in and around Al Shifa hospital and the murder of #WCK volunteers.
And forgot about the fact that Israel literally declared war on Iran and there are no "proportional" response to such declaration than an all out war.
That is exactly what Netanyahu has been dreaming about so #GenocideJoe and "defensive" #NATO comes to his rescue.
“The state department has a process in place. And to date … they have not found any incidents where the Israelis have violated international humanitarian law.”
– John Kirby, Whitehouse Spokesman
Who are you going to believe, your eyes and ears or us?
These bastards all belong in the dock at The Hague.
What a fucking shit-show sham. If #Biden truly had frustrations for #Netanyahu he wouldn't be sending him more weapons. Weapons Netanyahu uses to murder innocent women and children. 14,500 CHILDREN in the past 6 months alone.
This is fucking political theater and nothing more. #GenocideJoe is no better than #Satanyahu.
###A new batch of American weapons of 1800 MK84 missiles reach Tel Aviv from Washington.
These are 2000 pounds (085kg) bombs. Used by Israel to destroy large number of residential buildings in #Gaza before.
The weight of weapons sent by Pentagon during this shipment exceeds the total "humanitarian aid" US have sent to Gaza since the start of the Israeli attacks.
Yesterday, Florida’s Supreme Court upheld a state abortion ban, likely triggering the Governor's more extreme law eliminating access before many even know they're pregnant.
Outrageous.
@VP and I remain committed to protecting reproductive freedom in Florida and across the U.S.
several high ranking officials in Iran have asked Khamenei to declare Iran to be in state of war with Israel
Since Israel bombed Iranian consulate and openly admitted doing this, it's Iran's right to see that an act of war of agression that gives Iran the right to self defense against an aggressor is granted to Iran under Article 51 of the UN charter:
Article 51
“Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security. Measures taken by Members in the exercise of this right of self-defence shall be immediately reported to the Security Council and shall not in any way affect the authority and responsibility of the Security Council under the present Charter to take at any time such action as it deems necessary in order to maintain or restore international peace and security.”
He has lost the war in Gaza. Hamas is weakened but nowhere near destruction.
He lost the war at home, people see clearly that he has 0 interest in bringing the hostages home, despite orders from UNSC and ICJ.
He has lost the world, even with his lobbyists working overtime and almost all western media and top politicians dancing by his tunes, people have seen the true and ugly face of fascist coalition government of Israel and it's brutality and disregard for almost every human rights and international law.
His military is weak. Without constant supply of weapons and parts from #GenocideJoe he can't even win against small and insignificant group like Hamas, but he wants to fight Hezbollah and Iran hoping that Biden, Sunak, Scholtz and other war mongers in NATO come to his support.
Nothing is more dangerous than a cornered rabid dog, and Netanyahu is one of the most dangerous people alive in our world right now.
@rbreich He'll probably take more "independent" votes who would otherwise vote for Drumpf. Sadly, RFK, TFG and #GenocideJoe are all such HORRIBLE candidates, the corruption of the electoral college will hand reins to the biggest fascist...
@randahl if you arm a genocide, you are scum. This is why so much of the USA's left has a problem voting for #genocidejoe biden. Being held hostage to an undemocratic choice of this genocide guy or that one isn't much of a democracy. #freepalestine#eattherich#warpigs
The terrible human toll in Gaza has many causes.
A chilling investigation by +972 highlights efficiency:
An engineer: “When a 3-year-old girl is killed in a home in Gaza, it’s because someone in the army decided it wasn’t a big deal for her to be killed.”
An AI outputs "100 targets a day". Like a factory with murder delivery:
"According to the investigation, another reason for the large number of targets, and the extensive harm to civilian life in Gaza, is the widespread use of a system called “Habsora” (“The Gospel”), which is largely built on artificial intelligence and can “generate” targets almost automatically at a rate that far exceeds what was previously possible. This AI system, as described by a former intelligence officer, essentially facilitates a “mass assassination factory.”"
"The third is “power targets,” which includes high-rises and residential towers in the heart of cities, and public buildings such as universities, banks, and government offices."
The current commander of the Israeli intelligence #Unit8200 wrote a book released in English in 2021. In it, he describes human personnel as a “bottleneck” that limits the army’s capacity during a military operation; the commander laments: “We [humans] cannot process so much information. It doesn’t matter how many people you have tasked to produce targets during the war — you still cannot produce enough targets per day.”
So people invented the #Lavender machine to mark persons using AI. Then the army decided to designate all operatives of Hamas’ military wing as human targets, regardless of their rank or military importance.
Senior officer B.: “They wanted to allow us to attack [the junior operatives] automatically. That’s the Holy Grail. Once you go automatic, target generation goes crazy.”
"Just as various international humanitarian and state-building interventions into Mogadishu have stifled true political alternatives, thus leaving extremist groups such as al-Shabaab and the Islamic State to fill the void with their own nihilistic projects, so too may we come to find that whatever emerges from the ruins of Gaza will be equally as monstrous, if not more so."
