For real disappointed that there hasn’t been any real noise or it’s been kept quiet, in Vietnam there was actually a near-mutiny on one carrier and even with the bombing of Libya there were like a few people on ships involved who got in trouble for posting about how stupid and bad it was. Pretty pathetic there hasn’t been much of that as far as I’m aware.

Yes that is the part that makes sense. He already said that Israel was content with living normal westoid consoomer lifestyles, so they are the Truman in the analogy. What doesn't make sense is the savages tearing down screens with machetes. The Truman Show was a fully realized environment inside a massive soundstage. The catch was that Truman could never leave his hometown. I think Bennet is getting his metaphors mixed up with The Wizard of Oz.

On her wedding night, a woman had her hair shaved like a soldier, was dressed in mens clothes, and went into her husband's chambers after dark.

They were pansexual in that they wanted to gently caress a hairy goatman.

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told US counterpart Lloyd Austin during a call yesterday that Israel has not set a date for the launch of a major ground offensive in Rafah, contradicting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a source familiar with the matter tells The Times of Israel.

Gallant said Israel is still finalizing its plans to evacuate the roughly 1.5 million Palestinians currently sheltering in Gaza’s southernmost city after fleeing the fighting areas to the north, the source says, confirming reporting in Axios and Haaretz.

The call took place hours after Netanyahu claimed in a public statement that a date had been set for the Rafah operation.

New Footage from hamas via aljazeera, and one of the longest in a while.
Key things from the footage:
turning the entire strip to rubble has only increased their ability to setup ambushes and covert cameras
They dont seem to be in any shortage of their home grown ammunition and are capturing IDF arms and ammo
They are still ambushing and routing IDF in the northern strip and Khan Younis, places Israel insists have been cleared.

Ireland will move to recognise a Palestinian state in the coming weeks, Irish Foreign Minister Micheal Martin said Tuesday in Dublin.

Martin said he will bring a formal proposal on recognition of a Palestinian state to the government when "wider international discussions" are complete.

"Be in no doubt, recognition of a Palestinian state will happen," he told the Irish parliament during a speech.

Delaying recognition "is not credible or tenable any longer," he said.

Martin later told local news site the Journal that the formal proposal will happen "in the next couple of weeks".

He said that for the past six months he has been in discussions about recognition with other countries involved in peace initiatives.

Last month the leaders of Spain, Ireland, Slovakia and Malta said in a joint statement that they stand ready to recognise Palestinian statehood.

Ireland has long said it has no objection in principle to officially recognising the Palestinian state if it could help the peace process in the Middle East.

But the war in Gaza has given the issue new impetus.

The war broke out with Hamas's October 7 attack against Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,170 people, mostly civilians, according to Israeli figures.

Israel's retaliatory offensive has killed at least 33,360 people in Gaza, mostly women and children, according to the Hamas-run territory's health ministry.

"I am in no doubt that war crimes have been committed and I utterly condemn the ongoing bombardment of the Gazan people," said Martin.

Statehood recognition "could be a catalyst to help the people of Gaza and the West Bank and in furthering an Arab-led peace initiative," he said.

In other news some bullshit just slipped from bidens cheeks again regarding how mad he is with netanyahu (not at all) and that he calls for a ceasefire (where israel gets to go back to how it was and gazans get rubble)

And trying to set up another camp david because of those unreasonable arabs
You cant say in one breath that you have fundamental disagreements with Israels approach to gaza and rhen also say theyve done everything in their power in negotiations in the next.

The contradictions that riddle the pro genocide world can be revealed with the most basic of scrutiny.

Also, Jose Andres is a big name in Washington D.C’s elite circles and he has a lot of powerful friends he can complain to:

https://www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/views/jose-andres-world-central-kitchen-israel-enemy/

quote:

In Washington celebrity chef and World Central Kitchen founder José Andrés, Israel has picked a powerful enemy posted:

The term “celebrity chef” does not adequately encapsulate the standing that Andrés enjoys in Washington D.C. His rock star status here was forged in his creation of a chain of restaurants that he claims (with a touch of exaggeration) introduced “tapas” to the US capital. But in a city where people are judged by how much power their wield, Andrés has bagfuls of it, and it’s not due solely to the strength of his Catalan Spinach.

From its inception, his determination to create and develop “World Central Kitchen” has been hailed here, especially after he secured $100 million of funding from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos (also owner of The Washington Post). He’s led his teams to some of the world’s most challenging environments, and in Gaza they were literally trying to prevent a man-made famine, when a man-made war killed them in their well-marked vehicles.

“Heroic”, was the description President Joe Biden used, and it’s apt. It is also notable that Biden placed an immediate call to Andrés, describing him as “my friend”. That is testament to the power Andrés enjoys here, especially among Democrats. He has carefully built relationships with both former President Barack Obama as well as Biden.

So when Andrés talks, Democrats – who nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize – listen. And right now, Andrés may be the most powerful voice in Biden’s ear urging him to break publicly with Netanyahu, and withhold further weapons sales to Israel.
