Israel’s strike on the Jabalia refugee camp has led to more intense pushback from the Biden administration.
Hamas made me do it. The bloodstains on the walls are just ketchup and the children getting dragged from under the rubble are just paid actors. Please get your current president to condemn Hamas and give us a shout out, thanks.
Hamas bombed the refugee camp. We know what we initially said, but that was bad intelligence, also from Hamas. We have since learned that a stray rocket from Hamas was responsible for this and all future attacks on the refugee camp, of which there will be, shall we say, several.
It’s a stark contrast of response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It turns out there are limits to the “right to self defence” and those are mostly governed by public narrative.
Sadly, it’s only the people in the disputed territories and their families that truly suffer consequences for their decision to salt the earth.
“Can you tell us what happened? We know its not your fault baby, promise not to get mad.”
TIL the U.S. is Eric Cartman’s mom irl.
But when it comes to any other country, they’re much more like Kyle’s mom.
Ah yes, the courageous stand of “I demand answers in a strongly-worded letter!” will surely stop the genocide of Palestinians
What a spineless bunch of fucks.
Perhaps the unwavering support for the zionists is wavering a little.
Hallelujah. Wait.

Fuck the US (government not people) at this point. The hypocrisy is just vile.
Here’s how that exchange will go.
Israel: yes we bombed that refugee camp
US: Oh okay. Here’s 2 billion more tax monies, carry on
Israeli forces have already released explanations regarding these strikes to the press:
First strike:
An Israel Defense Forces statement said the strike on Jabalia, Gaza’s largest refugee camp, had killed Ibrahim Biari. It said he was a ringleader of what it called the “murderous terror attack” on Oct. 7.

The Israeli military said its fighter jets struck a Hamas command and control complex in Jabalia “based on precise intelligence,” killing the head of the Islamist group’s anti-tank missile unit, Muhammad A’sar.
“Hamas deliberately builds its terror infrastructure under, around and within civilian buildings, intentionally endangering Gazan civilians,” an Israeli statement said.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-military-jets-strike-gaza-camp-says-hamas-commander-killed-2023-11-01/It seems like the US wants some press showing they are concerned, I would be surprised if they didn’t already know exactly what is happening and why.
Oh good, pack it in everyone, the murderers said it was OK that they killed a bunch of innocent people.
It’s like when bank robbers take a hostage everyone knows the standard protocol is to kill everyone in the building to get them.
“The Negotiator” would have apparently been a very different movie had it been produced in Israel. I wonder who the recast gets to replace Kevin Spacey?
Because a bank robbery is just like war between governments…? Collateral damage is a lot more common, normal, and acceptable in war than it is in police actions.
