Gaza’s government media office accused the Israeli army of “committing a horrific massacre”. More than 70 people were killed and about 250 others wounded, it said in a statement on Thursday.

The citizens had congregated at al-Rashid Street, where aid trucks carrying flour were believed to be on the way. Al Jazeera verified footage showing the bodies of dozens of killed and wounded Palestinians being carried onto trucks as no ambulances could reach the area.

“I have been waiting since yesterday. At about 4.30 this morning, trucks started to come through. Once we approached the aid trucks, the Israeli tanks and warplanes started firing at us, as if it was a trap.

    Biden is the person that is making this possible by supplying israel with weapons they use to commit these massacres. Boycott your votes for Biden until he stops this Genocide.

    Yup, it’s only Biden, not the overarching position of all US foreign policy and basically every elected official past, present, and almost certainly future, since World War II. And definitely not the fault of Bibi himself.

    Plus Biden is God, if he says the word, it stops. Bibi definitely won’t seek other avenues.

    edit:

    You do realize how ridiculous it sounds that you are going to basically let the guy win who:

    • actually instituted a Muslim travel ban last time he was in office
    • has literally described himself as “the most pro-Israel president ever”

      It’s not “letting” if that’s specifically their goal

        Fair point. It’s hard to tell in this day and age who is astroturfing and who is simply very seriously misguided.

          Agree, but if you look at this dude’s post history they are rabidly obsessed with blaming this on Biden.

      Similar events have happened in the past with israel and American president’s have shut them down with one phone call.

      In addition to Biden not stopping the Genocide, Biden bypassed Congress to give israel weapons to commit more Genocide.

      If Trump wins it will be the fault of the people that supported Biden doing Genocide so much that Biden did not think he needed to stop doing Genocide.

        Nope. It will be the fault of people who didn’t vote for the other candidate with full knowledge of how first-past-the-post elections work. You lot want to throw the baby out with the bathwater on this one, and it is knuckle-draggingly stupid. Maybe if Trump had come out and said he would unequivocally cockblock Israel from further action in Gaza, it would be one thing, but there is exactly zero evidence of this, and the rest of the garbage that comes with a Trump presidency is very much a known quantity. Including his stated intentions to end the American experiment as we know it.

          Us lot are going to make sure that Biden loses if he continues this Genocide.

          If you want to lose the election by telling Biden he can continue to support Genocide that’s your fault.

          You can see the polling numbers in Michigan backing up my claim. The faster Biden stops the Genocide the faster he can actual start an election campaign.
