"I am suffering because of this dump. Suffering from the germs, the rats, and dogs. Every day, I find 20 or 30 rats inside my tent, right inside of it."

That kind of "living" if we can call it that, and the apocalyptic scenes in the two videos, with children growing up in sordid surroundings -- these are our "tax dollars at work," approved by Congress and gifted to Netanyahu by both Biden and Trump.

Let's all take a vow never to vote for any politician who financed such evil with our tax dollars.

The level of cruelty is breathtaking. What kind of madness has overtaken the government of Israel and all those who carry out their cruel policies? I am Jewish and this is not what Judaism is about. But it still may end up being the death of Judaism since more and more hatred will be generated.

It’s too bad that Israeli’s don’t or won’t comprehend that supporting their government in genocidal war and mass starvation against the Palestinians only creates more anti-semitism against Jewish people across the world.

The polls coming out of Israel show overwhelming amounts of Israeli society are absolutely on board with this, and want more.

You're right that this is not Judaism, same as ISIS is not Islam, and the RSS faction in Modi's India is not Hindusim.

But I hope you're wrong that Israel's actions will be the death of Judaism.

We need people of all faiths to raise their voices and make clear that such violence and murder of innocent people is not sanctioned by any of the world's major religions.

I don't think it's a madness that has overtaken the government, and certainly not recently. The polls coming out of Israeli society, on the opinions of Palestinians held by israelis are overwhelming in the consensus of dehumanization. If anything, the government is a symptom of the society, which has since the Zionist migration began in earnest 100 years ago, dehumanized these people to facilitate their elimination....and I share your fear, that Zionisms toxic ideology of supremacy will corrupt the religion it has infected, if more Jews inside Israel and the diaspora don't wake up soon and move swiftly to stop this degeneration of humanity.

Israelis may think they are practicing Judaism, but what they are actually practicing is a form of depravity that is so reprehensible that no word exists to describe it.

Unfortunately Israel will blame Hamas for this disaster. They never take responsibility for anything. No wonder the Zionists won't allow journalists or parliamentarians from Canada (who were just denied access today December 16) from entering the West Bank let alone Gaza. They would be horrified. How would you like 20 to 30 rats inside your home even if it is only a tent. Disgusting and downright dangerous. Israel is PURE EVIL.

I hope it's obvious that whatever Israel and the US are labeling a "ceasefire" is just a more insidious method of achieving the same end goal as were the non stop bombardment and military invasion: killing and evicting an entire population.

The level of purposeful hatred here is bottomless. What type of flag-waving nations calculate the strategic value in occupying a peoples' access to fucking garbage disposal? I don't like to use the word evil but that's exactly what this is.

Here in the US we need absolute change in how and why we "intervene" around the globe. We're tired of our involvement in foreign atrocities - just so the rich can steal more things from "other" poor people. And we certainly must end many of our relationships - Israel in particular. The people of the United States do not want our government supporting them, or any other reckless murder/ theft regime.

Zionism is to Judaism as White Supremacy is to Christianity and Jihad is to Islam.

Check out movies: "Mississippi Burning", "A Time to Kill".

West Bank Zionists are worse than the KKK.

AIPAC is a threat to American democracy. Check out the legal bribery of 90% of our elected representatives. We should be on the side of the oppressed !!!
