Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”
The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.
The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC
Nobody is silent about this what the fuck are you even talking about?
The amount I heard the word “genocide” was much higher in October 2024.
Because there was a lot more genocide happening in October 2024. I mean hello? The war with Hezbollah and the North Gaza offensives were both in full swing then. Now we’re in a temporary “pause” in the genocide*, so there are less people saying genocide.
*There’s more genocide happening in the West Bank, but that has always gotten less reporting from Western media because it’s not as flashy.
Now, sure. Not in Nov 2024 when everything suddently quieted down right after the election.
I think a lot of people are mistaking my comments as being “supportive of the Israeli government and/or genocide.” They are not. Netahyahu and the people who enable him are huge pieces of shit. The practice of bulldozing to make way for “settlements” is fucking criminal, and that’s been going on for about forever.
And that doesn’t mean I support Hamas, either. They’re also shit. There’s war crimes all around here.
Not to mention Western nations playing fuck around with borders in the Middle East for 100+ years.
At the bottom of it all, to my view, the problem stems from Religious Group A and Religious Group B haintg each other because of religion, and claiming “rights” to land because of religion.
But I digress.
My comments were directed at the glaringly obvious use of a horrible situation to convince people to either vote for a fascist, or to withhold their vote for a non-fascist.
Uh… Nothing quieted down in Nov 2024. I was here in Nov 2024, arguing that Biden is the root of all evil, and the concentrations of people saying that Biden is or isn’t the root of all evil didn’t change much in November.
So was I. We’ve had different experiences, and that’s fine.
Well, you were supporting it back then. Now that you’ve come around to opposing genocide, you’re no longer getting pushback.
