I gotta say, the Biden admin was probably hoping for and perhaps expecting the exact opposite: marches in support of Israel. But besides the one in NYC where the participants were calling for genocide, all the ground energy seems to be with Palestine.

Good.

again, i don’t want to overstate. but i don’t think that the attempt to manufacture consent for this genocide is entirely succeeding. at least, i hope that’s the case.

I agree, I think Israel is in fact losing the PR war pretty quickly even with the all-hands-on-deck mobilization of the Angloid elites. The problem is, it won't be enough to matter. Israel gonna keep doing what it's doing even without full Western support

Yeah, the tone of coverage has been shifting since Israel started blowing up dozens of apartment buildings. I don't think the government can hide the reality of what's happening.

absolutely. if they actually cared about stopping they would be taking concrete actions to withhold aid and other measures that might actually give the israelis pause. giving some weakass statement with no action to back it up is 100% worthless

theres also gonna be thousands, tens of thousands of bodies left behind that will be completely unidentifiable, as everyone who could do ID is being herded into the desert. and its not like people are going to carry corpses of loved ones around when they're headed to at best refugee camps and at worst the loving desert. so israel is just gonna have all these bodies to deal with. what do you think they'll do, just a huge mass grave that later gets condominiums built on top of it? or a bonfire? cursory examination of the subject indicates cremation is forbidden and the actual burial rites are not uncomplicated, certainly not going to be performed by the IDF though. its just another vile disrespect thats being imposed upon palestine

Israel massacred hundreds of people in 48 denied it built a parking lot for a beach over the bodies and not until a 2022 documentary was released that its knowledge was widely known.

Intercept story on FBI and Homeland Security harassments over the past week

New York Times covers the huge Palestine solidarity rally in NYC as a "routine event." Blames "doom scrolling" for worries of violence, and not the demonization campaign taking place against Arabs and Muslims coming from the heights of the US state and media.

After Tension and Rumors, a Protest for Palestine Is a Routine Event
Hundreds gathered without incident in Times Square. They were watched over by ranks of police officers and news cameras.

By Liam Stack
Oct. 13, 2023, 6:06 p.m. ET

Hundreds of people gathered in Times Square on Friday to protest the weeklong Israeli bombardment of Gaza that has followed the Hamas attack, waving Palestinian flags and antiwar banners as more than one hundred police officers and scores of television cameras looked on.

The gathering, and a rally planned later in Brooklyn for Jews supporting Palestinians, might once have been considered unremarkable. But in the days leading up to the protest, rumors about it sent a wave of anxiety through New York. The city has been stricken by grief and living on edge since the incursion and the Israeli response, which together have killed thousands of civilians.
