Hmm.. wonder if that had anything to do with the guy ramming his vehicle into the crowd in New Orleans.
Hmm.. wonder if that had anything to do with the guy ramming his vehicle into the crowd in New Orleans.From Jimmy Carters book "Peace not Apartheid"
The United States is squandering international prestige and goodwill and intensifying global anti-American terrorism by unofficially condoning or abetting the Israeli confiscation and colonization of Palestinian territories.”...
That was in 2006 when the book came out.
Imagine how Carter was feeling in last year of his life seeing his country enabling a genocide and allowing Israel to trash international and human rights and criminal laws while giving it cover in the UN security council.

Qatar, Egypt, and the USA will oversee the agreement and its implementation.
i have my doubts but let's hope it happens
At the end of December, the US-funded Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) was forced to retract a report it issued that warned of famine in northern Gaza. As exposed by the Associated Press, this pressure to retract the report came from the US government after pressure was placed upon the US’s ambassador to Israel.
now that's a post with proof, thank you and free PalestineUpdated data:
More than 46,000 Palestinians killed in Israel-Hamas war, Gaza health officials say
Gaza's Health Ministry says the death toll from the Israel-Hamas war has climbed above 46,000.www.pbs.org
* Gaza states 46,000 deaths total
* It has said women and children make up more than half the fatalities
* The war has displaced around 90% of its 2.3 million people
U.S. Aid to Israel in Four Charts
Israel has long been the leading recipient of U.S. foreign aid, including military assistance. That aid has come under heightened scrutiny amid Israel’s conflicts with Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran.www.cfr.org
* Since the start of Israel's war with Hamas on October 7, 2023, the United States has enacted legislation providing at least $12.5 billion in direct military aid to Israel, which includes $3.8 billion from a bill in March 2024 (in line with the current MOU) and $8.7 billion from a supplemental appropriations act in April 2024.
* Other analysts have reported that Israel received $17.9 billion in U.S. military aid during this period, a figure that additionally accounts for the cost to the U.S. Defense Department of replenishing the stock of weapons provided to Israel.

* The US has been the largest single humanitarian donor to the Palestinian people.
* The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Gaza have invested over $1.2 billion in humanitarian assistance since October 7, 2023.
US says it will not limit Israel arms transfers after some improvements in flow of aid to Gaza
The US warned that failure to comply to the deadline could trigger U.S. laws requiring it to scale back military support as Israel wages war against Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.apnews.com
Distribution is always the core issue: (food, resources, aid money)
* The obstacles facing aid distribution were on this display this week. Even after the Israeli military gave permission for a delivery to the northernmost part of Gaza — virtually cut off from food for more than a month by an Israeli siege — the United Nations said it couldn’t deliver most of it because of turmoil and restrictions from Israeli troops on the ground.
* In the south, hundreds of truckloads of aid are sitting on the Gaza side of the border because the U.N. says it cannot reach them to distribute the aid — again because of the threat of lawlessness, theft and Israeli military restrictions.

fyi, it would cost just under 2 billion more to eliminate homelessness in the US than what has been sent to israel to genocide Palestinians

F. off with your human shields hasbara. Doesnt work well in this thread or with anyone with a half-aware mind. As to Israels "9/11", did you ever think for 1 sec what 50, 000 murdered men, women and children mean to the Palestinians?It's really, really tough. I feel for Israel:
Why 10/7 Was Worse for Israel Than 9/11 Was for America
In its scope, depravity, and national reach, the Hamas assault was a much greater shock to Israelis, and their response should be viewed through that lens.www.washingtoninstitute.org
* The America population equivalent of the more than 1,200 killed would be nearly 40,000, which is 13x 9/11
* "The attack is considered the bloodiest day in Israel's history and the deadliest for Jews since the Holocaust."
* Horrible war crimes against civilians were also committed
Israel has it tough because the terrorist organization they're fighting has no problem using civilians as shields, which makes fighting back without affecting civilians incredibly tricky. Side note, the October 7th project is an incredible effort to gather related social media posts from the survivors & non-survivors:

In America, nearly 3,000 Americans were killed on 9/11...we then spent 20 years & $21 TRILLION dollars in response:
$21 trillion for 20 years of war: But no money for human infrastructure?
Since Sept. 11, 2001, the U.S. has spent a mindboggling $21 trillion on foreign and domestic militarization. Meanwhile, the entire Republican Party and a handful of centrist Democrats are trying to block or whittle down a $3.peoplesworld.org
According to the Costs of War Project, the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT campaign) resulted in more than 4.5 million deaths (direct and indirect). Our track record on holding back is...not great.
War is a mess.
As to Israels "9/11", did you ever think for 1 sec what 50, 000 murdered men, women and children mean to the Palestinians?
Israel is a pariah state, a genocidal state, a war criminal filled state.
