War Watch & @WarWatchs Follow ≤ 4 Knesset member, Ram Ben-Barak: "The war in Gaza is aimless, and we are clearly losing it. We are forced to return to fighting in the same areas, losing more soldiers, losing on the international stage, damaging relations with the United States, and causing the economy to collapse. Show me one thing we have succeeded in." 9:38 AM • 2024-05-18 From Earth • 37K Views

    If I am experiencing this much censorship now on it is definitely not the place people are going to migrate to, to share information when micromanagers filter out all the opinions they don’t like .

    Edit: it is not coming from Newsie, which has not censored any of my content that I know of.

    When America frames everything for you it is easier not to understand what is going on because the frame is so tailored.

    Israel knows Hamas isn’t the sum of its militia. There are not X amount of Hamas members they are trying to kill. They are trying to terrorize the resistance out of Palestinians and encroach further and Joe Biden knows this. And is letting him. I am not sure I have ever witnessed a bigger parade of the grotesque.

    Zionists are bigger donors than Palestinians and they have bought the rights with politicians to indiscriminately slaughter them. If you make your political donations in a way that protects Palestinian lives, the playing field can be evened. There is an effort right now underway to only donate to candidates who do not receive AIPAC (America) and CIJA (Canada) money and that’s another way will end the genocide.

    This is a robust article by Medea Benjamin and Nicola J.S.Davies. They explain in detail which weapons the US supplies to Israel and how/where Israel uses them. Also, where the weapons are made. The US is the biggest maker and provider of armaments. Huge amount of money at play.
    That's why students asking for divestment from companies involved in the war is terrifying the government, the Israel lobby, the arms industry, the tech industry...
