Appropriate word, embedded and attached to US gumment sucking on the life blood of its oblivious sheeple. Meanwhile Israelis term gentiles and christians as scum, that's the thanks you get.
If a trade war with China develops, it will affect commodity prices. With America bleeding money on physical wars, the world will go into pain. Israel couldn't give a fuck, that's the reality. But dumbo sheeple go "oooohhh we need to save Israel, that's what b'jesus (and politicians) want".
Gaza atrocities will ‘haunt’ Antony Blinken, says former US diplomat Hala Rharrit calls for accountability for US officials who ensured the flow of arms to Israel despite abuses in Gaza.

Hala Rharrit told Al Jazeera in a phone interview that the administration of President Joe Biden is skirting the US’s own regulations by continuing to arm Israel despite well-documented abuses in Gaza. “They are willfully — and I don’t say that word lightly, willfully — violating and evading US law,” said Rharrit, who resigned from the US State Department in April. “When I became a diplomat, I swore an oath to defend the Constitution. They are circumventing the process to continue the flow of arms, knowing how catastrophic that is. For me, it’s really unforgivable, and it is criminal.” There are several US laws that prohibit weapon transfers to human rights abusers, including a ban on security assistance to countries that block Washington-backed humanitarian aid. The Leahy Law also restricts US aid to military units that are credibly accused of gross human rights violations, such as extrajudicial killings, torture and rape. Moreover, the Biden administration has adopted a policy, dubbed National Security Memorandum 20, requiring allies that receive US weapons to provide credible assurances that they are not using the arms in violation of international humanitarian law. Despite these safeguards, the US has continued to supply Israel — a country that leading rights groups say is committing genocide in Gaza — with billions of dollars in weapons. Israel has killed at least 46,876 people in Gaza. It has also imposed a suffocating siege on the territory that sparked a deadly, man-made hunger crisis. Last year, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence minister, Yoav Gallant, on charges of war crimes, including using “starvation as a method of warfare”. Yet, Blinken has certified to Congress that Israel is not blocking humanitarian assistance to Gaza — an assessment that aid groups have rejected. Blinken’s State Department has also been accused of failing to act on allegations of abuse by Israeli soldiers under the Leahy Law, prompting a recent lawsuit against the Biden administration, led by Palestinians and Palestinian Americans. And so, critics say Blinken has been instrumental in ensuring that Israel continues to receive the US weapons it uses to decimate Gaza. Blinken also oversaw the US delegation to the United Nations, which vetoed four Security Council resolutions that would have called for a ceasefire in Gaza. The top US diplomat — who has a long history of staunch pro-Israel advocacy — has faced Palestinian rights protesters at congressional hearings, in the streets and even in front of his home. Just this week, several activists interrupted Blinken’s remarks at the Atlantic Council in Washington, DC, calling him the “secretary of genocide”. And on Thursday, at Blinken’s final appearance in the State Department’s press briefing room, a journalist was forcibly removed for repeated questions about Blinken’s complicity in Israel’s alleged war crimes. Rharrit said it is natural to object to “massacres and human beings being butchered”, predicting that Blinken will continue to be confronted by protesters after leaving his post on Monday. “This will haunt him for the rest of his life,” the former diplomat told Al Jazeera. “History, for sure, will judge him, and it is already doing so today. The question is: In future administrations, will there actually be accountability for the crimes that were committed under this administration?” The war in Gaza appears to be nearing a conclusion after a ceasefire agreement was reached this week, following reports of intervention from incoming President-elect Donald Trump. For months, Israeli officials have pledged to push on with the war, and Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has openly bragged about thwarting attempts to reach a deal that would end the conflict and lead to the release of Israeli captives in Gaza. However, Blinken continues to insist that Hamas “played the spoiler” in talks over the deal. “I’ll tell you very bluntly, Blinken is lying,” Rharrit said. The ex-diplomat worked at the State Department for 18 years and served as an Arabic language spokesperson before quitting last year. She is one of several US officials who resigned from the Biden administration over the uncompromising US support for Israel. Rharrit said she is grateful that she left her post because she felt like she was being “silenced” when voicing concerns about US policy. “I don’t think as diplomats we are meant to enforce or implement illegal or inhumane policies and also ones that are fundamentally contradictory to US national security interests,” she told Al Jazeera. “So there was no way for me to be able to remain under those conditions.” Source: Al Jazeera
More spewing of nonsense by Al Jazeera, a news outlet so horrible and terrorist-supporting it has not only been banned in Israel but by the Palestinian Authority in the Eest Bank. At this point it has been proven many Al Jazeera employees in Gaza are Hamas militants.
Right, so who is telling the lies and who DOESN'T want the killings to stop....? Yeah, it's always Hamas at fault and Israel the victim. LIVE: Israel steps up attacks on Gaza ahead of expected start of ceasefire By Edna Mohamed 18 Jan 2025 The coalition government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed on the Gaza ceasefire deal with Hamas that will go into force at 06:30 GMT on Sunday. At least 122 Palestinians, including 33 children, have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since the announcement on Wednesday night that a ceasefire deal had been reached between Israel and Hamas. The Palestinian Authority announced that it is ready to assume its “full responsibilities” in the Gaza Strip following the implementation of the ceasefire agreement. Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 46,899 Palestinians and wounded 110,725 since October 7, 2023. At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks that day and more than 200 were taken captive. 3m ago (18:23 GMT) More from Netanyahu The Israeli PM says the first stage of the ceasefire deal is temporary and that both US President Joe Biden and the President-Elect will back Israel’s right to resume fighting in the second phase of the deal. He added that if Israel returns to fighting, it will do it in “new, forceful ways”.
Israel, doesn't like Al Jazeera, it doesn't like any media except its own, the Jerusalem Post you quote from so often. Journalist casualties in the Israel-Gaza war January 17, 2025 The Israel-Gaza war has taken an unprecedented toll on Gazan journalists since Israel declared war on Hamas following its attack against Israel on October 7, 2023. As of January 17, 2025, CPJ’s preliminary investigations showed at least 166 journalists and media workers were among the more than tens of thousands killed in Gaza, the West Bank, Israel, and Lebanon since the war began, making it the deadliest period for journalists since CPJ began gathering data in 1992. https://cpj.org/2025/01/journalist-casualties-in-the-israel-gaza-conflict/
It doesn't matter how much proof is provided about Israeli attrocities, @gwb-trading (a paid jewish journalist) defends them and the violence.
In this moment in time, lets wrap up some conclusions. Neither America and Israel want peace. Wanting peace is a Western / Israeli political lie. I began this thread by aluding that Biden by entering the Israeli Gaza fray was stepping into a pig pen mud fight. Biden was content to remain in the mud fight. He leaves a presidential term in disgrace. Enter Trump! Trump is entering the pig pen. Expect the same results. A ceasefire will figuratively last 5 minutes.
Gaza atrocities will ‘haunt’ Antony Blinken The atrocities should haunt the Hamas Government It is their responsible to protect the Gaza citizens that they were elected to protect
