Let’s not go that far, they just need some light distancing from “The General’s Plan.”

And this is just what the US media is reporting….

This is in the de-militarized, PA not Hamas run West Bank. My govt, the US, still militarily supports them with the money and arms to do this. This also includes bulldozing and bombing important Christian sites/schools as well as other religions.

Weird American twist in Protestant Christianity and its odd political beliefs that are counter to biblical teachings are losing traction. Orthodox church attendance is growing. When you follow a belief like the actual bible says to pray for, feed, and support people not bomb/judge them, it isn't a surprise that people are drawn to that. Sadly it isn’t as well known in the states and most see Christianity as something like Mike Pense/Biden/Trump/Fox News. I don’t personally believe Christ knows any of them, especially as they espouse and support the killing of Christians in Palestine (I also do not believe Christ would support killing Muslims or any of his children. He seems pretty clear on that).

No, but most of what they are quoting is from a major Israeli newspaper. This was out several days ago, but didn’t get picked up here in the states.

Yeah, I bet it’s upsetting that there willl be less kids starving to death and your money has to support it. Just feel good knowing that the US will spend billions on bombs. I know it is less fun to bomb kids than watch them slowly starve, but it at least is something right?

There was a sale that Biden bypassed Congress on Dec 29th or 30th. It still takes time to deliver so probably they still received stuff in February but definitely January so within the last month or so for sure.

That was noted as it was above the billions in military aide given annually that are already budgeted. We can still give them that close to 4 billion in aide without announcing as it is already in the budget so yes, we are probably still in February and March giving them aide as it is in our budget (I don’t like it, but say our as I am a US citizens).

Russian and Israeli money or proxy money should be banned in our political system.

It is a news show, have you ever watched it.? They also have Ryan Grim who is a well known author and journalist on their platform. Just because it isn’t Fox, MSNBC, or ABC doesn’t mean it isn’t news.

The funniest thing is if you watch the video, you will see examples where the NYT broke their journalistic standards. Seriously, watch it.

Hopefully Andy Ogles, representative who said kill them all, and Biden are happy their policy of no ceasefire is getting their desired result.

And now reports of children starving to death are happening.

It’s painful that we are allowing this. In 1988, the US, Britain, and Israel were still fighting the UN to stop sanctions against the ruling South African government and suppling weapons and surveillance systems to continue to repress the indigenous people. Times haven’t changed.

Of course the holocaust happened. So did slavery in the US, genocide of Armenians and several others, and Apartheid in South Africa. Those do not mean that Apartheid and Genocide are not happening now in Palestine. All are true. There are Jewish only roads and cities, there is a political group called Jewish power, and the current government is well right of Trump. This is not normal or ok.

John Kirby, White House spokesman, just said that Israel is doing a better job at protecting civilians than even the US military.

Nothing says democracy like non-freedom of the press.

How people still defend the IDF as the good guys is beyond me.

Different religion but from the same area, Jain ascetics are the ones I am most familiar with that would fit more what you might have been wondering about.

There are multiple monastic traditions of shunning all material things, some of which include housing.

Way to little, but at least something.
