Nah, I remember when he made the about face. He got up on the podium on the senate floor and gave a speech about how “I used to be into dope, but now I’m into racism. It’s way heavier man”. Something about the crime bill I think? it was weird.

he once gave a speech for the sons of the confederacy or some poo poo like that where he did a kidding-not kidding about how Delaware would have seceded but unfortunately maryland was in the way and what a doggone shame that was

We've reached the limit of what we can do as regular people. The labor movement in the West should be organizing general strike action over this, but it just isn't, partially because it's questionable if its members would support any assertive action that can't be directly tied to a bigger paycheck.

Yeah labour is pretty much the last lever to pull and even if something ends up happening it's going to take a lot longer than Palestinians have.

I was able to find the meeting commentary on this here: https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/03/1147856

Annoyingly, I was not able to find the actual text of the US draft proposal. Is that sort of stuff published anywhere? Resolutions that pass are clearly published by the UN, but I'm not seeing the same with ones that do not pass.

I think the text might show up at https://digitallibrary.un.org/searc...t__3=2024&fti=0 eventually. The rejected Algerian proposal from February is listed there, I figure they just haven't made the US resolution available yet.

Anyone who publicly and visibly states that support of genocide does not affect their vote is complicit in it.

you're going to catch a b+30 if you post videos of people getting killed, period. otherwise if it's something less clearcut you'll probably just get your post edited and a warning not to do it.

if you have any questions about what's okay or not okay feel free to pm anyone who iks this thread or a mod.

Israeli drones circling around Rafah, residents ‘terrified’

Reporting from Rafah, southern Gaza

The drones have not stopped hovering near the vicinity of the Kuwaiti Hospital in the past few hours, along with other central areas of Rafah.

They have been circling to gather more intelligence information about possible targets expected to be hit within the coming hours.

We have also noticed the large size of these military drones as they fly at very low altitudes.

Residents are completely terrified and intimidated because they believe there is going to be an imminent attack, not knowing when and where it will take place.

There are no good people in the congress or the US govt in general. It's sociopaths all the way down. Some of them like to pay lip service to certain leftist causes while enthusiastically supporting every crime against humanity the empire is doing.
