People wonder why so many Germans were quiet during the holocaust. Well, it’s happening now. A genocide is going on today and many people are quiet about it, excuse it, or deny it.

***From Rolling Stone’s Peter Wade:***
The vast majority of people in Gaza — 93 percent — are facing crisis levels of food insecurity, and Sen. Chris Van Hollen said that the United States is “complicit” in their hunger.
When asked on CBS’s Face the Nation about photographs of starving children in Gaza, Van Hollen said, “It’s very hard to look at those pictures. And the United States has been complicit. President Trump was in the region and really did nothing, said virtually nothing about what’s happening in Gaza, which is on fire.”
I appreciate Van Hollen for speaking out about this. This is the same administration that abruptly cut off USAID and caused people in Africa to starve to death, so it’s no surprise that they’re totally fine and okay with another group of people starving.
>The food situation in Gaza is dire after a months-long Israeli blockade on aid entering the strip, which the Israeli government says is meant to force Hamas to release Israeli hostages. World leaders are calling on Israel to lift the blockade to alleviate some of the suffering of innocent Palestinians.
How can you say that this blockade is supposedly necessary because it will bring about the release of hostages, while at the same time using the starving people of Gaza as hostages???
By the way, here are two updates from World Central Kitchen, which has been forced to stop providing food to Gaza, though they’re still providing water:
I support Van Hollen because he actually took a major risk and got off his ass instead of finger wags and strong letters.

I just want to know the „true leftists“ like Hasan, Briannah etc. who forbid millions of theirs followers to not vote for Kamala as she’s not pro-Palestine enough. Was this the plan all along? Are you people happy?

This is gonna sound horrible, because it is.
We’ve really got our own problems to deal with. Democrats have 0 control atm and we’re losing more power by the day.
Evil is eating us alive at the moment and we’ve got no power to stop it.
Sorry? We didn’t start that fire. We’ve got our own fire. Once we get our shit together (if that’s even possible), then maybe we can do something.
The US people made choices in 2024. Bad ones. Now, no help is coming Gaza. No help. Nobody is coming to save you. Do the best you can to survive this.

There’s a book that just came out called „One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This.“ I’ve never seen a book that captured everything so perfectly in just the title since ‚What Happened Hillary Clinton.“

What starving? Been 20 months of “starving” and yet no one has starved. You’re all fucking clowns.

Complicit?
We invented and fund the occupying force. We go to great lengths to shape public opinion and international blind spots that allow their atrocities to go unchecked… I’d say at this point it’s pretty clear that it is a proxy-genocide, brought to you by the USA.

Also even more complicit : Hamas

Remember how everyone was praising that stupid dock that fell apart like a week after installed and still wouldn’t have had the capacity needed to get the proper supplies into Gaza?

This was true under the prior admin too. Glad people are speaking up but still frustrating.

Strangely enough, people are STILL defending America on this. Democrats and Republicans. It’s sickening.

How weird, over on r/palestine they’re acting like things have really turned around under Trump.

No shit. The US has been complicit since Biden and Harris were in office

The U.S. is complicit in Americans starving right here in America. Good luck getting people here to worry about Gazans in a lot of American locations.

Unlike members of the MAGA cult who never criticize Trump I was critical of President Biden. I was extremely disappointed that he partnered up with Netanyahu in the killing of people in Gaza and the destruction of the city.

He’s not wrong.

Aid will start flowing into Gaza, hopefully this all leads to a new ceasefire
Of course we are. This administration perceives cruelty as strength, we are so f**king awful I can’t stand it.
The American people and the Federal government are NOT on the same page.
“Complicit”? I’ll guesstimate maybe 50% responsible.
