God I wanted this to be fake so badly. NBC certainly doesn't make corroboration easy to find either. But at the end of their Ukraine segment on February 17th (18th?) they confirm it right before transitioning to the next segment. Talk about trying to bury the story.

By the time the next president is sworn into office, I feel like the genocide will be over, considering they are targeting Rafah which is quite literally the last stand for Gazans since they are backed up to the wall against Egypt's border.
There's no way Biden is winning this election on "not Trump"
Because Trump would totally swoop in and stop Israel. What a bad, ingenious take.
If this is your only response to people righteously furious that "Our" person is single-handedly enabling a genocide to take place, well, you have bigger problems then just Trump.
Maybe we need some new people.
This is the first Harris news I have EVER heard and it just says "US Vice President" is she like a ghost or something and we can't say her name 3 times
It's looks to be a middle eastern website and the very first sentence of the article is
US Vice President Kamala Harris said...
Who actually reads articles smh my head
I'm pretty sure Benny threatened to use nukes.
The US: hey Israel, you doing a genocide? Here's money with no strings or requirements attached!!!
This a huge win for white supremacist and antisemitic conspiracy theorists.
Lets not pretend like white supremacy isn't in open support for genociding brown people and western governments being full of closeted white supremacists
Heh your response to Hamas is over the top, but by all means feel free to continue and also please take our money
