It is hard to believe that despite the live stream genocide occurring to a brave and downtrodden people ,we have not been able to get the politicians in the colonial west to show courage and stop this abomination of terror.The politicians are supposed to represent the people who elected them but appear to be suffering from collective amnesia so diabolical, that they continue to fund the current the genocide with our hard earned taxes…

I agree completely. When eventually a Nuremberg II takes place, my hope is that those politicians still alive who abrogated their duties to the nation and their constituents are hauled in front of that court to answer to the record of their accepting AIPAC bribes to support a genocide and crimes against humanity in the names of their constituents. These politicians, many already identifiable by their records on Open Secrets, swore to protect and defend the Constitution. Instead they chose to protect corruption and a mass murder. The fact they can still sleep well and face themselves in the mirror reveals these people so callous and bereft of empathy or ethics renders them unfit to hold any public office.

This report is a searing testament to the human cost of military aggression and forced displacement. The destruction of homes, tents, and entire neighborhoods in Gaza City is not just strategic—it’s deeply personal. Families like Hayam Saad’s, who’ve already endured unimaginable loss, are being pushed further into precarity with nowhere to go and no means to survive. The targeting of journalists like Osama Balousha—nearly 250 killed—underscores the urgency of protecting those who bear witness.

We must not look away. Every tower reduced to rubble held lives, memories, and meaning. This is not just a war on infrastructure—it’s a war on identity, on history, on the right to exist. Thank you to Drop Site and the reporters on the ground for refusing to let these stories be buried beneath the debris.

How can the UN sit back and let this happen. Erasure Israel from the UN and FIFA.

We will see if the UN does anything when it starts this week. There are a couple of things the General Assembly can do and the USA cannot veto , but between bribing and really threatening smaller countries…which Israel and US + others will try…no one knows. There is a total breakdown of international law and norms. It is not over yet, but The West has no legitimacy at all. Maybe others are planning something??

I’m protesting too, contacting my officials and was happy to learn that Canada has revoked the charitable status of JNF but today contacted our tax agency because it was the first day of the new “charity” “friends of JNF”. As I understand it the president of the new charity was VP of the original, that if you contact the replacement “charity” the response comes from the original and both “charities “ list the same address as their own.

I am so horrified, daily, hourly, but what Israel is doing to Palestinians in their brutal genocide. I do what I can to protest, but the psychopathic barbarism of Israelis and their elected government is something I cannot wrap my head around. #notinmyname

Psychopaths. No other word for them.

Shooting kids in the testicles? Psychopaths.

World public opinion is turning against the hateful zionists, but most countries still won't do anything. "We will pay lip service to a Palestinian state, and of course we will continue to provide bombs and tanks and fighter jets to our good friends the Israelis". What does it take?

I go to my nice little vigil every week, that I never expected to go on this long, and people drive by and honk and cheer, but it doesn't change anything. Both of my senators are foul zionists - the senator who has always been a jerk on everything, so what else is new, and the senator I thought might be a decent human being but apparently I was wrong.

What will it take?

We have to take action to STOP this genocide before it is too late. There needs to be a multinational armed force to intervene in Gaza and force the IDF out

Nothing else will stop Israel. Nothing else will prevent a complete genocide. The UN general Assembly has the power to create and deploy such a force. You can email UN reps and urge them to act so they feel pressure from the people of the world. The web site with a template letter and the email addresses is : www.protect-palestine.com/UNGA. Or check out @palestine_protect on IG. The link to the letter is in the bio.

It is a little time consuming to do. But it is a way to take some meaningful action. The man who created this web site is Ousman Noor

I am beyond heartbroken and furious and frustrated about everything. Just imagine wherever you or I live if we had to deal with what everyone in Gaza is going through even for just 5 minutes! Let alone for over 2 years. This is so despicable, inhumane and catastrophic. There are no words left to describe what is happening. Israeli government are a bunch of Criminals ! I believe God will show them his Wrath either on Earth or on the Day of Judgment and in hellfire for eternity. If they think they can get away with murdering and destroying people and all their livelihood, well God will never let them go! They will suffer in ways only God can implement and they should be terrified of God! If they don't believe in God, they will have a HUGE RUDE AWAKENING. God is The Most Just and I believe and know He will take care of all the EVIL DOERS no matter where they are. They CANNOT HIDE FROM GOD!

The psychopathic barbarism of Americans and our elected government stand shoulder to shoulder with Israelis and their government. Without America Israel is impotent.

The intentionality of these strikes is indisputable. It leaves nowhere to go for the people, not even tents. The people are told to flee to the south where there is no shelter, no food, no medicine. Israel has created devastation and thinks that having warned the people to leave giving them 15 minutes to do so would not be seen as genocide. Scorched earth counts as genocide.
