‘Elderly child’: Trauma of Israeli bombing turns Gaza girl’s hair grey

Well to be honest - though the US is taking most of the flak, because they supply the vast majority of the arms, almost all major political parties of the western world are supporting Israel throughout this genocide. "Strongly worded diplomatic cable, but we won't stop shipping arms supplies" is about as far as it's gone for the UK, Germany, Italy, Australia and dozens of others. Only late last year Canada and like literally this week France have stopped arms exports, as far as major powers go.

So yeah I agree with the 'fuck this'. The only major party in my country (Australia) that vowed to stop arms exports to Israel (the Greens) has been repeatedly smeared in the press and attack ads as 'anti-semitic' for the last two years - ever since they started advocating loudly for Palestine. They got ~12% of the vote in our last election just a couple of weeks ago, with a -3% swing away from them, so I guess the smears worked. Our far right parties (One Nation & Trumpet of Patriots) got just over 8% by comparison, to give you an idea of the climate down here. Israel's govt is winning the propaganda game even though we have video evidence of their crimes and they often even admit them openly, it's sickening.

I've never heard that story about Marie Antoinette before. I rather doubt it. But certainly she deserved it.
