With the massacre of hundreds of Palestinians waiting for aid, we are forgetting the true victims.

This feels like it's meant to be a joke, but it's not.
Far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says the provision of humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza endangers Israeli soldiers and must stop after more than 100 Palestinians were reported killed while trying to get aid in Gaza City.
“Today it was proven that the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza is not only madness while our hostages are held in the Strip … but also endangers IDF soldiers,” Ben-Gvir said, calling the deliveries “oxygen to Hamas”.
The incident is “another clear reason why we must stop transferring this aid”, he wrote on X.
Ben-Gvir also said Israel must “provide complete support to our heroic fighters operating in Gaza, who acted excellently against a Gazan mob that tried to harm them”.
- It is crazy to starve people to procced calling them barbars for being desperate. But here they (the fasicst government) are, using this exact argument to justify a massacre.
- This logic is absurd. We killed 100 people, therefore the aid has to stop, because it allows us to kill civilians.
  Have you considered not killing civilians?

Remember the beginning of Black Hawk Down when the warlord's men machine gun the people trying to get bags of grain? And the Black Hawk crew couldn't engage?
Yeah, it's like that, except we're paying the warlord's army this time.
- We told you you shouldn't use those bullets on civilians. Here, have some more. But this time no civilian casualties, ok? You've done it again, haven't you? Here, have some bombs.
  
  I'm not sure we even bother to suggest they don't use them on civilians.

Fuck fascism, fuck the monstrous IDF, fuck Netanyahu.

  More like Israeli Genocide Forces

- I had to check. Really.

- I don't know if you're a fan of Some More News, but their most recent episode was on all the terrible arguments to justify the Israeli genocide and the 'title monkey' keeps repeatedly asking "but do you condemn Hamas?"
  It's pretty amusing.

  But do you condemn hamas?
  Reminder to always watch the ending clip, there’s always some last joke or line or something after the credits too.

Top quality editorial here...
- Editorial of what? There's no cite or anything. To me this is just some image somebody made and not reputable.
  
  It's been on the news all day dude. At some point you have to actually pay attention.

Why won't somebody think of the feelings of the guards of the extermination camp???!

Its so messed up

Feeding starving kids is the most vile anti-semitic thing I can think of.

Why yes, because over 100 ~~IDF~~ IOF soldiers were massacred, right?... Right?

As we all know antisemitism is when something makes Zionists feel uncomfortable such as the truth.

Feels ?

IDK works for American cops.

Can we start calling the Jews Ashkenazis just for the heck of it?
- You can do whatever ignorant thing you want, but I'm guessing ethnic Jewish groups like the Sephardic Jews (originally from Iberia) and Beta Israel (originally from Ethiopia) would object on the grounds that it would be really fucking stupid.
  
  Betas, lmao.

Source? There's no chance this is real.
- It's real. They opened fire on a crowd of civilians trying to get food aid from an aid truck.

  I really want to believe that poster meant that there's no way the headline in the image is real, but...
- Found the article by middle east eye but the article is vague, and apparently they quote from Israel but taken it out of context. Very typical of MEE. But the truth isn't too far off.
  Here's the quote in question from CNN:
  Israel confirmed its forces fired on people, saying crowds had threatened their troops
  Here's another one from CNN, detailing the event.

Post like this basically give the election to trump. Stop the madness.
Edit: Jesus fuck! Do I really need to write /s on this sub? A point of clarity for those who doubt. Biden has failed to use his political power to stop a heinous act. We can't always stop horrors everywhere, but here we can actively do something. Frankly, we should be delivering aid directly under the guidance on UNRA.
Ceasefire now. Free Palestine.
- I almost feel like a dummy for falling for this cx I wouldn't have a few months ago, but lately I've seen a lot of liberals share this sentiment genuinely. The idea that any criticism of biden or things he supports is russian or chinese propaganda trying to get trump elected. It seems to have calmed down recently, but a few weeks ago I saw someone saying pro palestinian protestors were russian spies who should be shot
- Does anyone think that trump would act any differently? That he would put a stop to any of this? He literally tear gassed protesters for a photo op.
  
  I don't understand how that is some sort of salve for genocide. Am I suppose to feel better knowing that Biden and Trump enable genocide? Lesser of two evils doesn't mean we don't end up in an awful place.
- You gotta be kidding me!
  All it takes is for one man, Joe Biden, to act differently in this one thing, to pretty much guarantee that Trump loses.
  Yet instead of that one man stopping support for Fascists and their Genocide, we get endless parroting if this, frankly disgusting, propaganda that the "only way" is for millions of people to swallow their principles and humanitarianism and endorse a guy activelly supporting a Genocide.
  Why should millions yield in their unwillingness to have mass murder activelly supported in their name and with their taxes all just so that one guy, one single guy, can continue using the resources he has been entrusted with by voters to activelly support mass murder?!
  
  I don't understand this comment after my edit. It was sarcastic. Biden can and should stop funding and supplying Israel. I think the sooner he does so, the sooner he secures the youth vote, and relectuant progressive, and the Muslim American vote.
  Did the edit not convey that?
- What gives the election to trump is biden's inability to not support genocide. Trying to get people to be quiet about it only makes me wanna vote for him even less than I already do, since he's clearly the pro-genocide candidate
  
  If you think the US stance torwards Israel would change just one bit under Trump, you are very mistaken.

- Check your votes.. No one is buying this.. We all see what is happening. But you are a bot so not sure why I'm replying to you.
  Israel is a genocide state.
- I heard this a lot. The reality is, if hamas surrender now, they will still be out there looking for hamas, because no one know how many hamas is out there, who is the hamas, or when will hamas strike.
- When Lebanon laid down their arms and surrendered with security guarantee from the US that they wold not be harmed, israel committed mass rape and Genocide. This is also where they stole the "pregnant women with the baby ripped out" story from. Israel actually did that themselves:
  Sabra and Shatila massacre
  Janet Lee Stevens, an American journalist, later wrote to her husband, Dr. Franklin Lamb, "I saw dead women in their houses with their skirts up to their waists and their legs spread apart; dozens of young men shot after being lined up against an alley wall; children with their throats slit, a pregnant woman with her stomach chopped open, her eyes still wide open, her blackened face silently screaming in horror; countless babies and toddlers who had been stabbed or ripped apart and who had been thrown into garbage piles."
- Ah, yes, and Israel will just continue their occupation and genocide of Gaza indefinitely. There's a reason Hamas exists you moron.
