This is in the de-militarized, PA not Hamas run West Bank. My govt, the US, still militarily supports them with the money and arms to do this. This also includes bulldozing and bombing important Christian sites/schools as well as other religions.
Yes, it is important to kill those kids so the next generation of terrorists never grows up. /s
Or they are also a country that has experienced genocide and also has countrymen facing religious persecution in Jerusalem just for being Christian on a daily basis
Heartbreaking photo
No, but most of what they are quoting is from a major Israeli newspaper. This was out several days ago, but didn’t get picked up here in the states.
It is a news show, have you ever watched it.? They also have Ryan Grim who is a well known author and journalist on their platform. Just because it isn’t Fox, MSNBC, or ABC doesn’t mean it isn’t news.
The funniest thing is if you watch the video, you will see examples where the NYT broke their journalistic standards. Seriously, watch it.
John Kirby, White House spokesman, just said that Israel is doing a better job at protecting civilians than even the US military.
On Christmas Day, it is time to reflect on what Christ would have wanted. I doubt bombing the descendants of his friends and family would be it.
Wow, racist much? Why is the Church if the Nativity in Palestine, the answer is that is where Christ was born and many Christians live there. One of the first things Israel bombed in Gaza was St Porphyrius Greek Orthodox Church which was one of the oldest churches in the world. Last week Israeli snipers killed several at the Catholic Church in Gaza. There are not as many Christians in Gaza anymore as most fled over the last 16 years of blockade, but to suggest that all Palestinians are Muslim is an embarrassing take.
That is correct, Bethlehem is under occupation in the West Bank. People in Gaza cannot get permits to visit for Christmas. Also, people in the occupied West Bank who lost families when churches in Gaza were bombed and family members are being denied food, water, and medical aide do not feel that feasts and presents are appropriate. It is a time for prayer not presents.
The festivities and feasting are cancelled when over half of Gaza is being starved. Christmas itself, prayers, and hope that peace comes as Christ calls for is not. Listen to what the priests have said and not the title.
How many journalists need to be assassinated before others notice a trend.
So powerful as he speeds up as he talks through the song.
Hamas in no way is the govt of the West Bank. If anyone has a bit of soul left, they will see this for what it is, the elimination of Christians and Muslims from their homelands by military might against international law and my President Biden supporting this. After all I thought we leaned post George Floyd, we just shifted who we find ok to discriminate against and the rabid hate that was quieted has come back multiple times as strong. It’s almost like there was a built up hate pressure that has exploded. Stop ethnic cleansing, is it to high a bar to ask of our leaders (on both sides as the Republican talking points are just as bad or worse).
I understand that but we also know what the trident middle system on that ship can do and what it carries. That single sub out-powers most countries.
While I understand it is nuclear powered, I also assume it has a full payload. Even if not. The optics after an Israeli minister says there are no civilians and nukes are on the table aren’t good for us to be engaging like this. He may have been suspended, but the rhetorics right now are not acceptable.
Instead of pushing for a solution, we move nukes??? It’s time to push back on the military industrial complex and get diplomats working.
And instead of ships with aid, we have warships within view.
And this is just what the US media is reporting….
