While I understand it is nuclear powered, I also assume it has a full payload. Even if not. The optics after an Israeli minister says there are no civilians and nukes are on the table aren’t good for us to be engaging like this. He may have been suspended, but the rhetorics right now are not acceptable.
Ok, so does that make dropping close to the equivalent of half an atomic bomb on the population living there? Does this mean we shouldn’t support the only cancer hospital having fuel? Would we stand by if Russia did this to Kiev?
They won’t let journalists in to report so only local people can. Over 30 journalists have been killed, they announce that if the hospitals are not evacuated, they are fair targets. People don’t believe what they upload because they are “biased” and much of that are people holding their dead children. Look at the drone footage where half of an are of 2.3million people, 2/3rds were forcibly evicted from there homes and half are children. My family is Christian and hid in a church that was over 2000 years old. They bombed the church last week. They say the war is against Hamas, but they are only the government in Gaza not the West Bank. They armed the West Bank settlers and are bombing the West Bank and killing people there too including Bedouin people. It is a land grab and now they want Egypt to take the people and not let them back. It has turned into a war where Muslim and Christian people are slaughtered so their land can be taken. Also, the Hamas raid was tipped off three days prior so why were the soldiers pulled off???
Yes, a 14.6 billion dollar arms pledge for Israel and a 100M pledge for aid for Gaza. The first trucks went on Saturday. 500 trucks a day normally pass and the US vetoed the ceasefire resolution to allow aid in so the trucks are barely moving, maybe 20 per day. What will the aid be worth when people starve. Woman having babies without hospitals, cancer centers out of drugs, people being operated on without anesthesia. Biden’s language has been inflammatory and encouraging this tragedy to expand. Compared to Obama, Clinton, or Carter, I can’t even recognize Biden as a Dem.
You post in a lot of these. You do know that the Israelis have banned reporters? It would be good to have the NYT or anyone else there to document, I agree. Why aren’t they allowed in to document should be the question. Drone footage shows almost half the buildings leveled. When almost half of a city that had millions of people, over a million kids, how many do you think might die.
And most are second or third generation born in camps after being forcibly moved from their homes by armed soldiers almost 60 years ago. Regardless of some adults actions,what we are supporting doing to kids is an unacceptable horror.
And people downvote. The aid is stuck on the border as the US vetoed a humanitarian ceasefire, food, water, electricity have been cut of which is against international law, and yesterday Israel bombed the Greek Orthodox church. Imagine being a woman where they won’t let feminine hygiene products in and no water. They think of these people as animals and humiliate them constantly.
Just like he saw the picture of 40 beheaded babies, son died in Iraq, drove an 18 wheeler, convinced Strom Thurman to pass voting rights act and civil rights act, was raised in synagogues, etc, this guy is a liar.
Sadly, I thought the /s was obvious. Very sadly I am now seeing with over a million Gaza children now experiencing war crimes, I didn’t expect to see this being anything other than an obvious reprehensible situation. Anyone green lighting apartheid and etheric cleaning is a nazi. Hard stop. Fact.
I understand that but we also know what the trident middle system on that ship can do and what it carries. That single sub out-powers most countries.
