Gaza City Officially in Famine, Jews Celebrate

[BrightShinyGirl]

Nine trucks a day for 2.1 million people and you don't think that people are starving because someone found a shop.

I don’t think people are starving because the only images of starving adults we’ve seen from Gaza are the hostages. The shops are full and all the adult Gazans look well-fed.

They don’t give a flying fuck about the Gazans. They know it’s a lie, but they won’t miss a chance to revel in the good old antisemitism and blood libels. Meanwhile, there’s a real famine in Sudan, but no one cares.

The so-called “Palestinians” are the only nation in history invented ad hoc to stop another from building its own state. Their entire existence rests on being a gun pressed to the Jewish nation’s temple. No one is ever going to take that gun away.

famine was already in Gaza months ago... it failed to be to be announced as such purely through technicalities over documentation preservation/collection as is often the case during war-times due to bombing, displacement, and a lack of ability to physically collect those statistics.

The doctors, aid workers, Gazan population, anyone able to get information out (often at risk to their own lives) are all in agreement that famine is wreaking destruction. Some areas are worse than others but the isolated pockets have grown and are spreading rapidly.

While Israel's still refusing to allow outside journalists/media coverage of what's truly happening in Gaza, it can cherry pick and control each image it pushes out of 'well-fed' adults and 'full shops'. It also fails to mention how some of these shops' prices are so exorbitant that the locals cannot afford to buy the very basics, let alone provide nourishment for children. Famine hits the youngest, oldest, frailest hardest... babies and children need a higher rate of nutrition to support their development and they're simply not getting that. Even the food aid being dropped isn't of the stuff these kids need to thrive, or even survive, often needing clean water to prepare it in areas where that's not even possible to find.

 

[butters]

The world’s leading authority on food crises, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, said Friday that famine is occurring in Gaza City and could spread south to Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis by the end of next month.

Aid groups have long warned that the war and months of Israeli restrictions on food and medical supplies entering Gaza are causing starvation. Israel has denied the existence of widespread hunger, calling reports of starvation “lies” promoted by Hamas.

I’ve recently been considering how tenable the continued existence of a "Palestinian" controlled Gaza is from a military standpoint.

Gaza is basically on Israel’s west flank - while The West Bank is on Israel’s east flank, Hezbollah is on Israel’s northern flank, and Egypt is on Israel’s southern flank.



That ^ CANNOT be allowed to continue.

There’s a damn good reason the Arab / Muslim alliance has so steadfastly supported and supplied the terrorist army in Gaza - because they view this as a continuing war - and its success relies / rests on Israel being bracketed on all sides (and attacked / harassed from all sides).

It was a mistake (in hindsight) for Israel to have ceded Gaza to the "Palestinians" in 2005.

That ^ mistake CANNOT be made again (it is also a mistake (imho) to not manifest regime change in Iran while the opportunity presents itself),

This IS a WAR, and it needs to be conducted like a war. Eliminating the threat of attack on their west flank (Gaza), and eliminating the threat from the regime in Iran (and Russia, etc) is a sound strategy. Israel, the United States, and any willing partners should secure specific gains / goals to avert an even worse situation in the (near?) future.

The bottom line is that Netanyahu and his supporters continue to deny that starvation is even taking place in Gaza, similar to when Trump and his brainwashed followers denied the results of the 2020 Presidential election in the USA.

Hopefully political pressure will force Israel to accept that starvation is taking place and finally allow civilian aid to be distributed in an effective manner, just as Trump finally had to leave the White House in 2021.

Both Netanyahu and Trump will never admit that they made a mistake, but they certainly are subject to political and legal pressure.

If political pressure and reason does not prevail, Netanyahu's war crimes related to this famine will continue.

Israel has solid peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan. I think the plan is a permanent occupation of Gaza, Judea, and Samaria. Then Israel will ally with Lebanon after the Lebanese finish kicking out Hezbollah. Israel will support the Druze in southern Syria as a buffer against Syrian aggression. The Houthi will run out of missiles to fire from Yemen. Iran will collapse into chaos, removing them as a threat, and hopefully freeing the Persian people from their theocratic leaders.

Saudi Arabia wants peace with Israel. The big question is Qatar. They have the money to continue the Jihad, but their proxies have collapsed so completely they it will take decades to rebuild. International pressure on Qatar to stand down could work wonders.

You have a pretty optimistic vision / opinion about what the future holds as far as Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Iran, and Saudi Arabia are concerned (imho).

I hope you’re right. But:

• Iran is currently reconstituting in all areas.

• Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi, etc, are obviously less than thrilled with Israel right now, and they could face some sort of uprising themselves if global relations, the global economy, the global environment, and global stability continue to be FUBARed by DonOld & the MAGAt republicans (with a major assist from the world’s other "strongmen" / weak-fucks).

• Terror groups, like the Houthis, Hezbollah, etc, will always have sponsors to attack Israel - for various reasons: Hate for some, and for others, the desire to occupy the United States’ attention - and to divide America / Americans (See: Russia & China, etc).



I still hope you’re right.

Israel is doing their work for them. None of those countries want Hamas/muslim brotherhood/isis/ Islamic jihad or whatever they choose to call themself taking over their countries, most except Qatar are trying to become modern Arab republics/kingdoms.
Israel is a back up water support for Jordon and who knows who else, isreali tech and workers help those other countries.

That may be true, but those governments face the same threats from the general populace as any other when shit goes sideways.

And I’m sure that those governments are NOT pleased with Israel’s level of retaliation & Israel’s plan to occupy Gaza, as they are put in an extremely difficult position with their own populace (especially with some of the more radical elements).

I trust BSG and yourself have a better grasp of the street level vibe in Israel & the surrounding countries, and that you see significant support for what Israel is doing / has done from neighboring countries. I just don’t see it myself.

I’ll try to share your optimism, though.

To be honest, none of them want or care about Palestinians except Jordan which is60% Palestinians and none will take Palestinian refugees because they remember their own history with them.
They may think Israel is not doing enough to neutralize a shared threat.
It’s a sad situation. Look at the Palestinian refugees in Lebanon, they are in an open air prison and no one cares, because it’s not about the Jews.

Classic Noor "whaddaboutism".

Anything to deflect attention away from genocidal Israel starving innocent children to death.

I keep myself going by being relentlessly optimistic.

Me too! No optimistic about a two state solution though, unless it is the original Jordon and Israel.

You keep yourself going by letting your own biases make you believe information that is not objectively truthful.

Exactly like the MAGA fucks think. Think about that? You hate MAGA and all they stand for. But you "think" just like them.

 

[coati]

BSG may be ignoring the truth about famine and protracted desperation in Gaza because she believes the ends justify the means. This is unethical and does not represent Judaism in general.

Obviously not all Jews engage in that extremist thinking.

 

[JohnEngelman]

The Jews are vile, sad excuses for humans. All of them who support these crimes should be sent to the ovens.

Good luck. That was tame compared to the stupid fucking MAGAtards daily threads. I figure the mods have left the building.

If the Palestinians want to eat well there is plenty of food for them in the Arab World.

I can't help but realise that many of you are sick fucks.
There is a famine in Gaza. There are hostages taken by Hamas, which came to power as a result of a bloody civil war. Hamas is trying to murder as many people of the Jewish and Christian faith as possible.
There is the population of the State of Israel, the majority of whom are Jewish, but not all of whom are.
There is the government of the State of Israel, which is trying to either expel or kill the Palestinians for domestic political reasons and religious fanaticism.
But none of this has anything to do with people of the Jewish faith. The vast majority reject the behaviour of Netanyahu and his henchmen. To equate this internationally wanted criminal with all people of the Jewish faith is like saying that all Americans are as stupid as the criminal they made president. With the small difference that most Jews are not allowed to vote in Israel because they are not citizens there, while the Americans elected the convicted rapist by a narrow majority.

Thoreau is wrong. Simplify is not the answer.

No, Israel wants their hostage back, Hamas to surrender and to stop being attacked.
Do you realize that Hamas is still firing missiles at Isreal? That between all the Iranian proxies, Israel gets missile attacks almost every single day as they have since Oct 7, despite Israel not beginning the ground invasion in response to the Oct 7 massacre until Oct 27?

I don't.
