Benjamin Netanyahu has said he has given orders to the Israeli army to seize control of 70% of the Gaza Strip in a move that threatens to torpedo an already fragile ceasefire and create catastrophic humanitarian conditions in the already devastated territory.

In recent days, Israeli-backed armed militias have taken a leading role in emptying the territory along the ceasefire line, telling residents to vacate their homes or shelters.

Throughout the eight months of the ceasefire, Israeli forces have continued to open fire on Palestinians within range of the “yellow line” splitting the strip, and carry out airstrikes deeper inside western Gaza, killing more than 900 Palestinians since the truce began

    Whatever israel is doing is not a ceasefire. The media is fully complicit, stop calling it a ceasefire when it hasn’t fucking stopped.

    Everyone knows that the ceasefire was just reputation damage control. They always fully intended on finishing this genocide.

      Your top comment was given to me by God 3000 years ago

      I hope they complete the Jewish cycle of pushing God’s loopholes so far he smites them, like they always do.

          It’s their actual worldview look it up.

          “God’s is perfect and these are God’s words. If there’s a loophole in these words that means God intends me to use it”

          “No work on the Sabbath” quickly turns into leaving ovens on overnight and hiring non-jews to flip light switches or do things. It’s a very literal and rules-lawyery way of living. 613 rules are what they live by, and it’s a large part of why Jesus took what he thought were the best parts of the Jewish faith and made it accessible to everyone, also where you can live by both the word and the spirit of God’s laws (we all know that doesn’t work perfect either…)

            Oh I don’t need to do that, all religions do it. I don’t disagree with you one bit, I just wanted to mention how clown shoes goofy it is to believe you could subvert a god the way children do with their fingers in each other’s faces while saying “I’m not touching you, I’m not touching you, I’m not touching you”

            It’s just silly. That and there is no gods word. There’s a paraphrase of what someone claimed God’s word was. That fact takes it over the top.

    The audience started chanting 100… 100…

    Bibi nonchalantly rebukes, one thing at a time.

    Trump would suggest 1000 or 1500 percent. Make Gaza a black hole. Not a white hole, no. A poor, terrible black hole for black people. Am I right or am I white, folks, come on! While Elon Musk continues to bastardize the phrase, “I throw my hands up.”

    And suddenly from somewhere Miley Cyrus starts singing…

    Hop off the jet with their red MAGA caps,
    Constitution folded up like toilet paper scraps,
    Welcome to the land of the debt and rage,
    Everybody screaming, it’s all the rage.

    Gold spray tan with the thousand-yard stare,
    Truth getting farked by the corporate data share,
    Saw Elon dancing like a loading screen,
    Launching meme coins from a trampoline.

    So I throw my hands up,
    Hospitals closing again,
    Healthcare can’t be found,
    Schools are hunting grounds,
    Even USAID getting fed to the flames,
    Kids learning climate change from livestreamed hurricanes! And unprecedented heat waves!

    But I know it’s gonna be okay…
    That’s what the White House spokesperson said yesterday. And Trump always tells it how it is.

    Yeah, it’s fascism in the U-S-A,
    Golden statues swaying while the markets decay,
    Everybody yelling “freedom isn’t free,”
    While we couldn’t afford it anyway.

    Throw my hands up, motherfucker pass the bong,
    Somehow billionaires are suddenly “working class strong,”
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s fascism in the U-S-A.

    Welcome to the land of the endless spin,
    Where every scandal gets recycled again,
    Elon dancing like he owns Mars tonight,
    Tweeting through the ketamine satellite.

    Butterflies gone, now it’s drones in the sky,
    Corporate sponsors waving little flags goodbye,
    History teachers chain-smoking offstage,
    Watching irony die of old age.

    And the crowd goes wild for the giant screens,
    Explaining war crimes with marketing schemes,
    Every slogan tested by branding teams,
    Every nightmare sponsored by American dreams.

    So I just throw up,
    Facts fade away,
    Every press conference feels AI-generated today,
    Yeah… it’s fascism in the U-S-A.

    Remember: we peacefully protested against the Genocide in Gaza and the Palestinians. As we all know, that Genocide still happened anyway. I ask you then, what did peacefully protesting accomplish? It’s time to unionize and strike and bring the economy to a standstill and demand that trump put sanctions on israel and even demand justice for the epstein files and the dissolution of ICE which is also against international human rights
