Israelies must be stopped. Palastinians have a right to life.

You are absolutely right Virginia, but stopping Israel's annihilation campaign can only be done if enough countries get together and agree to STOP supplying weapons to Israel and agree to STOP trading with Israel. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of truly principled nations willing to give up the opportunity to make money over doing a heroically virtuous deed such as saving the Palestinians from some of the most depraved and immoral people of Israel!

Here in Australia, our government has always been the most steadfast supporter of Israel outside the US. This is because Australia is part of a global military alliance with the US, UK, NATO, Canada, New Zealand and Israel. Israel is an essential component, their job is to design surveillance technology and new weapons and try them out on their neighbors. We want weapons that have been tested in 'real battlefield conditions, on living human beings. The Israelis herd the people in ever decreasing enclaves, then use them for target practice.

Thank you for enlightening me! This news is absolutely horrendous because it means that when any of these countries call for a Palestinian state, they are simply lying! I thought I was being given some hope; how naïve I've been!

Do not despair, the Palestians will get their state, but not via military means. We will achieve it via crippling the economy of Israel and starving it of oil and weapons. It may take a while, it may take an aweful lot of people and an aweful lot of willpower, but we will win! Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end!

Such a lovely post! Thank you so much for providing me with some optimism! Now that's a form of starvation I can rally behind!

Thank you for reporting these horrific details -- and may God have mercy on the victims.

The legacy media has access to Trump frequently (as they did when MBS visited Trump this week) -- but none of them ever ask him directly about Israel's brutality that continues with our support.

The media watchdog turns into a lapdog when it comes to Israel. Shame on them. And thank God for independent media like Drop Site and others.

What is happening in Gaza is pure atrocity. Israel is committing war crimes by bombing civilians, killing children, and destroying homes with total impunity. This is not defense—it is deliberate terror against an entire population. The world cannot remain silent while these crimes continue. Accountability is not optional—it is mandatory.

Everyone knows the truth. Israel is set on eradicating the Palestinians from Palestine. Those who argue that Israel is not doing this, are those who support its actions and its deception. It is a a waste of time arguing with them, as they already know what you are saying, but they are pretending they don't know. 'You cannot wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.' - Hopi saying.

Israel dosen't want this GENOCIDE to stop. If it does all the covered up murders and rapes these war criminals have done will eventually be exposed.

Israeli psychopathy has no limits! Israelis are terrorists on a level unknown to man- they truly are not human!

Unspeakably awful. I don't have words for it.

Back out tonight to hold banners over the freeway (with a group - I'm just a hanger-on, not a leader) and remind people that it isn't over.

John Mearsheimer, the respected author and historian, says that what's happening to the Palestinians is just like the Nazis. The exception being that the Nazis didn't pursue their objectives with such glee as the Israelis.
