Warrants could be issued this week against Netanyahu, Defense Minister #YoavGallant and army chief #HerzlHalevi. Some legal experts say the attorney general and army lawyers are partly to blame for not doing enough to prevent Israeli violations of #InternationalLaw

“If you want to know what an unfolding genocide looks like, open your eyes. It looks like the forced famine of 1.1 million innocents. It looks like thousands of children eating grass as their bodies consume themselves, while trucks of food are slowed and halted just miles away.” -Rep. Ocasio-Cortez

Stolen West Bank settlement homes are being sold in America to Jews. An real estate event at a synagogue was set up, and this fine gentleman (a Jewish man) was having none of it.
"‘The long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead,’ wrote John Maynard #Keynes in his 1923 work, A Tract on Monetary Reform."
Mid March is the long run for many Gazan refugees, Mr. President!
Even though the saying goes, each country gets the government it deserves. Even a democratically elected government is not the same as its people.
This is why I have started to... https://mastodon.social/@DrALJONES/111963080262253515
"#Lula is not completely in error if we consider more qualitative aspects of history & look to European fascism as a whole and not just the German National Socialists (who were peculiar in many ways)."
Agreed.
#Hitler, on the other hand, stands for the systematic destruction of a people on an industrial level including its culture. Even, #Putler, as I, too, have started calling him, falls a bit short by this measure.
Many years ago, the late German Chancellor Dr. #HelmutKohl hat a PR disaster when he compared a #Sowjet minister to the infamous #Nazi Propaganda Minister, #JosrphGoebbels.
Thus, #Lula's #Hitler comparison is very much out of...
More importantly, it indirectly "normalizes" #Hitler's crimes against humanity by diminishing them, relatively speaking.
Even if the #Netanyahu Government really did plan the mass flight of the #Palestinians and even their eventual resettlement in #Africa, it simply would still be (fortunately) way below the atrocities committed by the big slayers of the Modern Age.
Yes, and that makes things more complicated.
In the end, if not one of the 2 peoples is rather completely anihilated, an unthinkable outcome, the 1947 solution of the #UN, developed by great thinkers, is IMO the only way to a lasting solution that will not necessarily entail terrorist attacks on a daily basis.
...captured and annexed the West Bank during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War until it was occupied by Israel in 1967. "
The kingdom's independence predates the #UN resolution in question by a year. The resolution about the carve-out of an #Arab nation would not have made any sense anymore in 1947 if #Jordan really were that nation.
"...but also on the ground realities at the time, such as the #Jewish population's presence and the outcome of the #Arab-#Israeli War of 1948."
I can agree with all the facts that you state here (with the whole post, in fact) as they coincide with my recollection of things I have read and heard in the past. Thank you, too, for the recap.
“Chuck Schumer plans to force a vote Wed on an #Israel & #Ukraine aid package stripped of border security provisions after GOP made clear they would block a move to take up entire bipartisan border security and foreign aid bill in the afternoon
Question:
What do you call someone who takes hotages? A hostage taker.
What do you call a party that holds a whole country hostage, and just for political manoevres at that?
How about a party that holds 3 countries, and Allies at that, hostage?
Would #Ukrainian + #Israeli people feel entitled to consider them to be a terrorist party, as they will be the ones who suffer violence, if the funds don't pass Congress..
I can see your point based on #DerSpuegel cover, however following the #German news cycle at the time, I'd say most media had this bottom line.
In retrospect, her statement might have come months too early, considering the pending #ICJ ruling on the #WarInGaza and the role of the #Israeli army in it.
1080 kHz: Arab music, fairly strong, would've been better if I could improve my NE SuperLoop to null Cadena SER better. Anyway IT WASN'T THERE IN THE AFTERNOON!!! Another Israel reactivation for the #WARINGAZA? KAN MaKan? #mediumwave#mwdx
Item 8: #WARINGAZA impacting Bethlehem badly - it became a ghost city...
Item 9: Christmas shopping in Poland. "It's more expensive than last year, but - let's add - slightly." I think this kind of material would still include some praise to PiS if produced by #TVPiS. Not this time! 👺
“Social media platforms ... are designed to maximize engagement. ... The best ways to drive engagement are to either show people what they will likely agree with or to show them content that will outrage and shock them.
As a result, the content you will most frequently encounter on social media will either mirror your own views or upset you, or both. In other words, political engagement on social media most often generates no new knowledge while it inflames already raw emotions. When it comes to a conflict as historically convoluted and as emotionally charged as the Israel-Hamas war, those are terrible outcomes,” says UMass Boston ethicist Nir Eisikovits via @TheConversationUS
