Israel says it is cutting off its electricity supply to Gaza
Israel says it is cutting off its electricity supply to Gaza. The full effects of that are not immediately clear, but the territory’s desalination plants receive power for producing drinking water.
Israel says it is cutting off its electricity supply to Gaza. The full effects of that are not immediately clear, but the territory’s desalination plants receive power for producing drinking water.
Sunday’s announcement comes a week after Israel cut off all supplies of goods to the territory to over 2 million people. It has sought to press Hamas to accept an extension of the first phase of their ceasefire. That phase ended last weekend. Israel wants Hamas to release half of the remaining hostages in return for a promise to negotiate a lasting truce.
Hamas has pressed to start negotiations on the ceasefire’s more difficult second phase instead, which would see the release of remaining hostages from Gaza, the withdrawal of Israeli forces and a lasting peace. Hamas is believed to have 24 living hostages and the bodies of 35 others.
No matter which side you take in this conflict one thing is clear - the incompetence of Israel and IDF is staggering.
It's intentional.
It's not incompetence, it's a racist state where the majority see Palestinians as sub-human.
Yes op making it like some minister are stupid and there are some good apple,while they publicly say we want to level it to the ground and drop equivalent to 6 Hiroshima bombs on the region.
Their entire history built on massacre after another.
More collective punishment from the "good guys"
We're moving towards doing the same thing to the US up here in Canada.
Just shit you gotta do when you're dealing with fascists. Sorry, we can't hurt Fox News without hurting all of NY. Things are gonna be shit when fsacists are running things where you live.
America is evil tho
This type of whataboutism makes you look silly
Canada is genociding Americans? Must have missed that in my border state.
Fuckk off with your bullshit.
Except it's NOWHERE near the same thing.
Palestine isn't allowed to produce electricity itself or import it from anywhere else, so if Israel cuts off the electricity that means no electricity.
The majority of the population wasn't even BORN (let alone old enough to vote) the last time an election was allowed.
Plus nobody is murdering, displacing, and otherwise ethnically cleansing the population of New York.
You're basically comparing apples and Orange County.
When did Canada put a concentration camp wall around the US and blockade their sea and air?
Yet another reminder that if a god does exist, they're the type who likes burning ants with a magnifying glass.
I have serious theories on this that I think other cultures have tried to tackle.
Epicurus said it best:
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God
- Epicurus
Maybe god's power isn't absolute. He can do things, but it takes effort on his part and stops him from doing other things.
I'll never understand the anti-theist obsession with religion. They survey everything before them, scanning for signs of faith like a hawk searching for mice.
For me, one of the best things about atheism is I can automatically depreciate the significance of all that dumb shit.
Its the "chosen by god to save your souls" fervor probably, which gives the licence to fuck everybody's lives.
This is an extraordinarily useful reply.
Thank you for that.
Dammit Biden, how can you let this happen!?
What are you trying to accomplish?
This is so obvious sarcasm...
Thank god all the lefites stayed home on election day or this would have happened.
If you don't think this would've happened under Harris, I've got a great opportunity for you to make some money on crypto.
It’s almost as nothing happened between October 7th 2023 and November 5th 2024…
Their moral convictions stayed intact thank god. Well worth...checks notes...literal human lives.
Why don't you ever blame the people voting for establishment politicians?
They're also sticking to their moral convictions at the cost of human lives since it's becoming clear that the "fall in line crowd" actually isn't falling in line.
Perhaps the people voting for establishment politicians should take their turn "falling in line" if they care so much about human lives? They'd have to sacrifice some of their greed and entitlement though! I don't think it will happen in my lifetime.
What of the tens of thousands of dead and mutilated Palestinians at the hands of American bombs, jets, and funding from October '23 to January '25? If those deaths don't matter to you then why do these deaths matter to you? Or could it be that you don't really care either way and just want to use it as a political football?
The election was stolen. This was going to happen regardless.
Every day you become more like MAGA.
