"We used to say we should do something. We still do, but we used to, too." - Secretary of State Mitch Hedberg
Oh shit, oh fuck. Someone found oil in the Gaza territory, didn't they?
This offers an opportunity to distribute and share about US$524 billion
And they'll spend $2 TRILLION blowing the place to fucking hell so they can have it for themselves. Thus is the logic of
They need to launder that tax money somehow. You can only give so much in subsidies to your corpo buddies.
You have 2 aircraft carriers overwatching the whole damned thing. Intercerpt some fucking missles and jets going to hit civillian infrastructure you fucking zionist pig.
Better yet go give Israel some
and usurp the Netanyahu government, overthrow Mossad and the IDF. Institute martial law and enforce the "rules based order" drafting a constiution for Israel guarenteeing equal rights to Palestinians, tear down the walls, and grant them heavy reparations. Fuck this two state solution.Even in the Balfour declaration it was to be done under the petext of non discrimination and equal rights to the Palestinians. Israel throughout it's decades has failed miserably, even deliberately in this. They have lost the right to rule over the land.
His Majesty's Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.
"We need to do more to protect Palestinian civilians"
*gives JDAMs to Israel*
US Secretary of State:
"We need to do more to protect Palestinian civilians..."
"...from Hamas..."
"...by funding the IDF war efforts with US taxpayer money."
I didn't see any offensive or internationally banned weapons that we gave the IDF. I heard it was just for solely "defensive" operations. They just placed my hand on paper and told me to sign, I'm legally blind as a condition of the office. What do you want from me?!
"Israel, cut it out now or... You might face consequences."
"Fuck you. And you know what - not only will there not be any consequences ever - you'll always give us more. You think of us as our daddy. But you are our b*tch."

Seriously though - I wonder if Biden and his team are smart enough to know that the status quo continuing in the Gaza war could mean Biden loses in 2024 and he likely takes the dems down with him.
He can't undo what he's already said and done. I see more and more trying to pretend they DIDNT just support genocide a few weeks and only lightly modified that in the last week-ish since it's become overwhelmingly clear that this is not a position that non-elected (kinda key part there) "progressives" or just left leaning people hold or can tolerate in any capacity. Genocide should be instantly disqualifying at an absolute minimum so that means all 100 senators and all but like... I mean, I'd say just Tlaib, although I'd probably say a few others get a pass in the House for half-ass being human. It's sad that only one person with the power in Congress or executive branch had the fortitude to immediately say "no genocide." What a rotten country.
He can't undo what he's already said and done.
What I love about the democrats is that they lack common sense and they also don't have an instinct for self-survival. I assume Biden and his team thought his mention that "there's not a sliver of daylight" between his administration and the Israelis couldn't fail. Then he sent not one but two strike groups to be sit out there in the water close enough to Lebanon to remind Hezbollah of American military might. He paved the way for Israel to commit war crimes and to do ethnic cleansing and now he and Blinken are flailing around in a panic.
