Too bad for the 11,000 Palestinians that died while Biden was twiddling his thumbs
Huh, could it be that this ceasefire is because Biden wasn't just twiddling his thumbs? Guess we'll never know.
This whole mess has been hugely funded and armed by the US empire for decades
How does the US president not have enough leverage to stop the death before 11k people die?
Perhaps they agree that Israel has a right to defend itself, despite collateral damage.
If you think they have the moral high ground as they wade through thousands upon thousands of child corpses resulting from levelling refugee camps and apartment buildings, I don't know what to say to you
Yeah, there should have been continous condemnation of Hamas and stronger pressure on them to release all the hostages. Even after this deal, there are another 190 that may still be alive in Hamas's cruel hands.
What? The whole point of having hostages was to negotiate for a ceasefire after the operation. It's Israel who didn't take rescuing hostages seriously (preferring to bomb them to death instead).
No, Israel is taking the russian approach to kidnapping after the last couple of kidnapping where they tried the western way. Seems to be working way better imo.
I thought the point was more human shields to cowardly hide behind. It didn't deter Israel.
