Continuing 'Ethnic Cleansing' Campaign, Israel Blows Past US Deadline for Gaza Aid
Continuing 'Ethnic Cleansing' Campaign, Israel Blows Past US Deadline for Gaza Aid
As the deadline for Israel to increase aid deliveries to Gaza passes, human rights groups demand accountability for the ongoing crisis. With thousands dying and children starving, will the U.S. finally take action to stop the atrocities in Gaza? The time to act is now. #GazaCrisis #HumanRights
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin wrote a letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government on October 13, giving Israel 30 days to allow at least 350 humanitarian aid trucks per day into Gaza, open a fifth crossing into the enclave, and ensure access to northern Gaza for aid groups, among other specific steps outlined in the letter.
Noncompliance would violate National Security Memorandum 20, which President Joe Biden issued in February to demand credible assurances from Israel that it was acting according to international law, and Section 620I of the Foreign Assistance Act, which prohibits the U.S. from providing military aid to countries that are blocking U.S. humanitarian aid.
Louise Wateridge, a senior emergency officer for the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), said Tuesday that the Biden administration's warning 30 days ago did not improve conditions in Gaza, with aid entering the enclave "at its lowest level in months."

Yes, it's definitely Palestinians we've been criticizing, well-known for their ability to vote in American elections.
All those people who tried to save Palestinians must really regret not voting. Now that they know this supposed final warning from the administration to improve humanitarian aid was nothing more than an election ploy.
The way it is going right now Israel might just finish cleansing half of Gaza before January. Then Trump swoops in for the "ceasefire" by officially handing the ethnically cleansed half to Israel.
The Harris campaign made the decision to not break from Biden on Israel, at the cost of a +6 points gain. That's the fault of the campaign's calculations to ignore those voters, take them for granted, and instead run to the right with Liz Cheney and having the most lethal Military. That single policy change would have secured her the swing states needed to win the election.
I voted for Harris and told others to do the same. It's still on the campaign. Blaming voters is just sowing division when we need unity and solidarity to fight against Fascism.

Our first matchup tested a Democrat and a Republican who “both agree with Israel’s current approach to the conflict in Gaza”. In this case, the generic candidates tied 44–44. The second matchup saw the same Republican facing a Democrat supporting “an immediate ceasefire and a halt of military aid and arms sales to Israel”. Interestingly, the Democrat led 49–43, with Independents and 2020 non-voters driving the bulk of this shift.

Majorities of Democrats (67%) and Independents (55%) believe the US should either end support for Israel’s war effort or make that support conditional on a ceasefire. Only 8% of Democrats but 42% of Republicans think the US must support Israel unconditionally.
Republicans and Independents most often point to immigration as one of Biden’s top foreign policy failures. Democrats most often select the US response to the war in Gaza.

"Ceasefire"
Christ. You really aren't paying attention, are you?
Christ. You really aren’t paying attention, are you?
Israel has constructed a road through the middle of Gaza (Netzarim corridor) and is now actively ethnically cleansing the northern half of Gaza into the south.
Don't forget: they're going to shoot a whole lot of them on the way through
Yeah, and they're not gonna stop there. Like, they've openly announced as much since Trump became president-elect.
Ok? They are already committing ethnical cleansing in the West Bank though.
They have openly announced as much since last year https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/netanyahu-brandishes-map-of-israel-that-includes-west-bank-and-gaza-at-un-speech/
Blaming this on Trump already is a nice scapegoat, I guess?
The question you have to answer is whether this would not happen under Harris.
