visiting my conservative boomer dad and he turned on abc world news and I just generally tried to avoid any conversation about the segment on Israel s& the hospital bombing only for my dad to unprompted say “you don’t believe this garbage do you?” before talking about how horrible the Israeli bombing in Gaza was so that was neat :unsmith:

My weirdly conservative parents are also this way. I suspect it's that, for all their faults, they find genocide distasteful. Which puts them ahead of the entire US and Canadian political class, I suppose.

Besides the permanent counterterrorism branch(es?) they've been doing various joint exercises and training for over 20 years and there was some unspecified number of NYPD officers and (private) security personnel in Israel for "a seminar on threats to the Jewish community" when Hamas first attacked.

Q Okay. So, Sisi agreed to open that up?

THE PRESIDENT: Yes. For this purpose. For this purpose. Not to allow a lot of people out, but to open it up for this purpose.

Q For humanitarian assistance?

THE PRESIDENT: For the humanit- — for the trucks to be able to get through.

Q And is that just —

Q Twenty trucks.

THE PRESIDENT: Well, look, what I — you guys are such a pain in the neck. You know? (Laughter.)

Q How about the hospital, sir? People all over the region are upset about the hospital and don’t necessarily believe you or the Israelis that they didn’t have anything to with it. Do you have a message to the people in the streets right now?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, I can understand why, in this circumstance, they wouldn’t believe. I can understand that.

And — but I would not — you’ll notice I don’t say things like that unless I have faith in the source from which I’ve gotten it. Our Defense Department says it’s highly unlikely that it was the Israelis. It would have had a — a different footprint. And they’ve intercepted some — anyway.

They — and so, that’s why, if you notice, I didn’t say it at first. I didn’t — I wanted to make sure that I knew.

And, look — and I’m not suggesting that Hamas deliberately did it, either. It’s that old thing: You’ve got to learn how to shoot straight. You know, and — and it’s not the first time Hamas has launched something that didn’t function very well.

So, I — I don’t know all the detail, but I do know the people at the Defense Department, who I respect, and the intelligence community that I respect, and it’s highly improbable that Israel did that.

Q Mr. President, is — are the Israelis operating within the rules of war that you talked about last week being so important?

THE PRESIDENT: It’s been good talking to you all. Brown Moses must be permabanned for genocide denial and apologia, and Koos Group must be permabanned for encouraging genocide denial and apologia.

At a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

OctaMurk posted:

A State Department official involved with transferring arms to key American allies resigned from his post on Wednesday, saying that “shortsighted decisions” by the Biden administration contributed to his having to make an unbearable moral compromise.

“In my 11 years I have made more moral compromises than I can recall, each heavily, but each with my promise to myself in mind, and intact,” the official, Josh Paul, wrote in a post explaining his decision. “I am leaving today because I believe that in our current course with regards to the continued — indeed, expanded and expedited — provision of lethal arms to Israel — I have reached the end of that bargain.”

“I cannot work in support of a set of major policy decisions, including rushing more arms to one side of the conflict, that I believe to be shortsighted, destructive, unjust, and contradictory to the very values that we publicly espouse,” he added

Sorry to hear that Al-Saqr it is something in this forum to read opinions that are almost dismissive and condescending from certain Western/white people that really do not have a personal experience or history with the area and your own personal experience of loss. Lot of time they do filter it through the actions of their governments and how it influences the region and because of that overwhelmingly control and influence any self determination in western Asia and the global south seems lost. You want every single one of these pieces of poo poo governments to be overthrown but also fear the American/Western influence that comes after it.
