Polio vaccine campaign begins in Gaza as strikes continue and West Bank remains on edge

  • The "group of individuals" was the local movement company. They were assisting getting to the destination and there was no evidence that they made any hostile actions. That's what ANERA says in this article even. So they didn't admit to any of the made up nonsense that IDF or this Times of Israel article is claiming.

  • So, they're not even trying to hide their actions at this point. Doing this in West Bank shows the goal is indeed the ethnic cleansing of the population and forcing them out so the land can be taken. We already know that has been the prerogative for decades, but this is a pretty blatant example.

  • Haaretz is the only real source of coverage of such opposing voices. And the Israeli government has already been trying to make moves to have them be shut down for daring to not support the will of the government.

  • There's definitely people protesting in Israel and have been since the start. But it is indeed unclear on whether they're protesting regarding their government's actions in Gaza or just protesting against Netanyahu more generally (which they had also been doing prior to all this anyways).

  • I honestly feel like if the national powers at the time had been actually serious about the Jewish people deserving a homeland after the horrors of the Holocaust, then Israel should have been created out of a portion of western Germany.

    Joe Biden Appoints Hawkish Official To Lead Israel Policy At State Department

  • Did you miss the massive protests going on for years when the US was doing the murdering? A bunch of people got arrested back then for daring to stand up to the US government.

    We can always do more. One issue with the Uighur situation is China is doing a good job of preventing any info to get out on what they're doing. If it was more blatant and obvious on the abuses they were doing, there would be more attention on it (like there was back when we did get some info on their activities originally).

    We should push the US government to do more on all those subjects.

    So you think it's a fad for people whose relatives are being actively murdered right now? Do you know how dumb that sounds?

  • It's funny that any time he speaks about policies he supposedly supports, we just instantly know that his position is completely vacuous and it's entirely about how much power and prestige he is given. He doesn't care about any of the issues, just about himself.

    Which makes him a very good match for Trump, I suppose. I wonder if they'll butt heads because of that.

    The Stark Dissonance Inside the Democratic National Convention

  • It's the same time period that I posted yesterday's thread. It had 30+ upvotes and multiple comments within half an hour. I did expect this post to get less traction overall, but I wasn't expecting a combined lack of comments and massive down-voting.

    Of course, considering the state of this group at the moment, with a bunch of threads posted trying to criticize any form of protest at the DNC, I suppose it's rather telling where posters here stand on any form of criticism of this sort, even if minor.

  • How does the headline seem like any form of assault? It doesn't even mention an assault. You have to read it to find out what it's referring to. And it's quite obvious from the first paragraph that the "worst way possible" is referring to people at the DNC trying to cover up and get rid of any form of opposing views.

    Sounds more like you want to obfuscate, for some reason. Those "couple of assholes" should be called out, not glossed over.

  • So, signs being flexible means attempts to get rid of and cover them don't matter? And hitting someone with a sign purposefully (two people really, since it also hits the woman next to her) is fine if you're unable to get leverage to hit harder? They're just playful taps, I suppose?

  • I decided to do a test. This is the same news outlet as the article I posted yesterday, that one being critical of Trump. It was massively upvoted, lots of comments and conversation. Great!

    Then there's this one. Similar topic, but not even criticizing Biden or Harris, the first line made that clear. But it's criticizing people at the DNC that were, as one major example, physically violent toward people holding a "Stop Arming Israel" sign. Horrible stuff, the guy should be arrested for assault.

    And, what happens? No comments after half an hour and massively downvoted.

    So, yeah, y'all fail the test. You're blatant hypocrites and it's sad.
