As much as I hated the Biden admin being pro Israel, too - at least they exercised some oversight. This is now gone and Netanyahu and his ilk can finally live out their darkest dreams.

That this sort of activity comes from the Jewish of all people, in the 21st century, is appalling.

But let's not forget Trumplon's part in all this. He is the big enabler here. Come judgement day (and I mean that very secularly) he will sit with Netanyahu. Well they might both be dead by then, but I have no doubt that history will not look kindly upon them.

damn, hopefully saudi arabia, qatar, dubai, oman, egypt, or any other trillion dollar petro states can step up and help out

maybe egypt needs to open the gates so they can let aid in?

They don't give a shit. Anyone who shows any kind of help or sympathy will be pressured to take on what? 1.5 million people? No one in that area wants that kind injection of foreigners.

what’s stopping them from supplying aid through the Egyptian border?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Israel controls it? In case you weren't aware

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i’m like why would egypt let israel control it

Egypt tightly restricts the opening of the Rafah crossing, and has kept it shut during previous Israeli bombardments of Gaza in 2021, 2014, and 2008. Since a period of heightened conflict between the Egyptian military and jihadists in the Sinai peninsula began in 2013, Egypt has vastly curtailed movement through the crossing, and banned the entry of aid organisations and journalists into northern Sinai. Palestinians accuse Egypt of bolstering Israel’s 16-year blockade by essentially closing their one exit route out of Gaza.

yep sounds about right

The Philadelphi corridor, which is the border separating Egypt and Gaza is currently controlled by and occupied by Israel, as they refused to withdraw from it as stipulated in the previous ceasefire agreement that they largely ignored.

And what is Egypt doing about that?

You're really trying hard to shift the blame from your beloved Israeli aren't ya?

Between the genocide in Gaza and what’s coming for the West Bank, Palestine might not exist in the next few years. Survivors scattered to the winds.

It’s incredibly sad, but honestly foreseeable. The right wing shift in the west is killing what little sympathy and press coverage there was.

I’m fearful that the current US presidency is the final nail in Palestines coffin. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t expect them to hang on in time for the next election.

They haven't run out. They've been prevented from restocking.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 days ago

"Because they were prevented from restocking, they are now out of food, but this condition need not continue if they are restocked.". Is that good enough?
