GENOCIDAL JOE. Angrier Inside Jewish and Christian Community, not Arab Community, Half Day After Biden Speech
Palestinian thank everyone who has offered support. It means more. amid pro-israel bent or narrative systematically and justified killing Gazans
DC and Dearborn 1.55pm / Jerusalem - Gaza Strip - Tel Aviv 8.55pm / London 6.55pm Oct [325 hours of war, still continue] BREAKING NEWS live update trilingual [hebrew - arabic - english] click here. 4,800 Palestine in Gaza alone killed [1,700 children] by Israel. Maybe 6,000 because still a lot of victims under the rubbles, not only Baptist Hospital or third oldest church on earth CHURCH OF SAINT PORPHYRIUS, or latest, Al-Omari Mosque, which was built 1,400 years ago and is the third oldest mosque in Historic Palestine after Al-Aqsa in Jerusalem and Ahmed Al-Jazzar in Acre, has now been leveled to the ground by Israeli bombing. Not counting Israeli hostages killed by Israeli bombardment in Gaza.
with assuming repression, censor to a lot of Muslim in every social media, so, for X / Twitter, this genocide hashtag is [even] result from western / Caucasian in US and Europe soil. Yonah Lieberman is respected Jewish. Imagine if he successfully convinces thousand Jewish to no longer vote Biden in 2024. Yonah very active to support cease fire in Gaza.
Some Arab American and or Muslim American hold until 4-5 hours after Biden speech, maybe to contemplating, ‘not too erroneous’ response like entire western media about ‘phrase of war’ used in online and printer. Some Arab American and or Muslim American just shared his or her thought around 1am DC / 6am London / 8am Tel Aviv - Gaza Strip, maybe she/he already on the bed, try to very comfort in bed, and try to carefully tweet/stories in IG/or in TikTok. Some UK - Arab and or UK Muslim, with problem different time zone, just shared her or his thought around 3am DC / 9am London / 10am Tel Aviv - Gaza Strip.
Even though Biden speech was intended for a domestic audience, the whole world is obviously watching. The US has put a great deal of effort in appealing to the global south/non-aligned world on a range of important issues, including to support Ukraine. Xi Jinping likely wants a long Israeli-Hamas war, because it may distract the United States from defending Taiwan, among many other reasons. "China’s Xi seeks swift end to Israel-Hamas conflict, calls for two-state solution."
Biden denunciation of antisemitism and Islamophobia and assertion of shared American identity and unity were powerful. Overall the speech was disappointing and dishonest, and again, indirectly made some thoughts for some people ‘US literally still greenlight’ genocide to entire Palestinian. 2 Hours ago, detail assistance for Israel issue or Israel/Gaza:
- $10.6 billion for weapons, replenishment, defense industrial base investment
- $3.7 billion for State's Foreign Military Financing, and regional embassy security (Portion of $9.15 billion for humanitarian aid to Gaza)
Biden’s equivalence between Israel and Ukraine in yesterday’s speech is false and offensive. Russia is occupying Ukraine in an effort to end Ukrainian self-determination. The new problem, with the US government rapidly careening toward the next deadline for a budget deal in mid-November, the collapse of the last-ditch James Daniel ‘Jim’ Jordan campaign puts jeopardy on budgeting in 2 battlefronts [Ukraine, Israel]. The bill allows the government to stay open for 45 days [15/16 November], started Sept 30. And now already Oct 20. The assistance given to countries like Sudan and Yemen are nothing compared to the vast quantities, gigantic quantities in number of humanitarian, economic, and military aid our government has poured into similarly war-torn Ukraine.
Israel is doing the same to Palestine. Israel’s methods are not as extreme as Russia because Russia is [former] superpower, and Russia [around 150 million, not including Russia descent from / result of mail bride, some analyst in extreme says 30 million] has 15x population of Israel [around 9 million].
Netanyahu said explicitly: Israel helped sustain Hamas in power in Gaza, sending money to Hamas since 2019, precisely because it served that goal, the prevention of Palestinian independence. Many, including Israeli security officials, have been warning for years that it would lead to exactly what we’re seeing now: all-out war.
Hamas’s attack was abominable. Continuing to fire rockets into Israeli communities is abominable. Holding hostages is abominable. I’ll continue to insist on all of those things. I’ll continue to condemn elements on the left that show any sympathy whatsoever for Hamas' terrorism. Tactical failures as well as operational and logistical shortcomings plagued Israel. HAMAS showed the world, with enough planning, not use cellphone [so Israel cannot surveillance or eavesdropping], discipline, and most crucially patience an oppressed people can inflict a catastrophic one of most sophisticated - and - subsidized army on universe.

Netanyahu, a scandal-plagued charlatan with a long history of engaging in desperate political gambits in order to maintain his grip on power, is now recognized by a growing number of Israelis as a failed and dangerously misguided leader. Biden knows the Israeli government is *choosing* paths of cruelty. Biden also can force Netanyahu to make different choices. He needs to needs to push to make this water actually accessible and, crucially, to force a ceasefire.
The disarray in Israel, 19 weeks consecutive massive protest on judicial overhaul, 50 percent entire military just in Tel Aviv and settlement in - around West Bank, provided an additional reason Hamas might have thought that this was a good time to strike. Tactical failures as well as operational and logistical shortcomings plagued Israel. HAMAS showed the world, with enough planning, not use cellphone [so Israel cannot surveillance or eavesdropping], discipline, and most crucially patience an oppressed people can inflict a catastrophic one of most sophisticated - and - subsidized [by US money taxpayer] army on universe.
In 1948, 31,000 of Jerusalem's population of 155,000 were Christian. Today? App. 15,000 out of one million. The decline took place under Jordanian rule pre-67, and Israeli occupation since The Christian presence in Jerusalem is being challenged.
I don't ignore the very real security challenges Israel has faced and continues to face. I acknowledge that the Palestinian people have been extremely poorly served by a corrupt, incompetent leadership PLO / Palestinian Authority in Ramallah, that has made a series of bad choices that have contributed to this situation, also make HAMAS look a hero.
What I will not do, however, is pretend that history began on October 7. I will not pretend, and no one should pretend, that Israel is acting purely in self-defense. Veteran Haaretz journalist Amira Hass has reported from the Occupied Palestinian Territories for decades and says the Israeli public is "drunk with the will to take revenge" on Palestinians, spurred on by a far-right government dominated by "extreme fascist settlers" using bloodbath of October 7.

Israel's occupation, and the various acts of violence against civilians it comprises, the settlement / colonization project it facilitates, are a war crime, in fact multiple war crimes, committed every single day, for years. Israeli government under extreme hawkish Bibi Netanyahu is using methods right now against Palestinians that no one hesitates to call terrorism when used by Russia against Ukraine. (Indeed, not only do many of our politicians not criticize it, they cheer it on.)
Headline from the only democracy in the Middle East: "At least 100 Israelis have been arrested for social media posts supporting Palestinians in Gaza and 70 remain in detention." Netanyahu turn Israel to be a fascist country with directly and indirectly help by Biden.
When one understands the vast machinery of violence and control and segregation that Israel imposes on Palestinians, the suggestion that Israelis are the ones in this relationship facing an existential threat just seems like gaslighting.
This is a remarkable passage: “You know, history has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror, when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos and death and more destruction. They keep going.”
Biden so close to getting it. He could be describing the US’s refusal to impose, and its ongoing diplomatic efforts to prevent, any consequences whatsoever for Israeli aggression against Palestinian civilians. To make sure Israel pays no price.
Biden’s words about international law are nice and welcome, but in the absence of any genuine accountability, that’s all they are. I would also note that unconditional US support has been wind at the back of the Israeli far right. And importantly: it has not made Israel secure.
Previously thought Biden’s effort to sell a US-Saudi defense pact by wrapping it in a “Saudi-Israel normalization” candy coating was the most cynical thing I’d seen from this president. But equating Israel with Ukraine to try and break the logjam on Ukraine aid tops that. Maybe it works in the short term, but there are longer term costs. I think we may be surprised at how much this is turning off younger Democrats, who see right through this stuff.
The world can see the allegedly civilized West’s double standard, NOT ONLY UN Security Council issues [2x US vetoed resolution]. Biden’s speech probably put it in the grave. To that extent, a propaganda victory for Putin and Xi Jinping.
The US needs to use its influence to ensure a more equitable approach, one which genuinely recognizes the rights, security, and dignity of Palestinians and Israelis alike. Not just in rhetoric, but action. This is critical for US credibility. US citizen have already seen who pays the price about using money from taxpayer on Israeli barbaric, genocide in the Middle East. All Palestinian
Türkiye President Erdogan has initiated a negotiation process for the release of civilian prisoners held by Hamas. President Erdogan has instructed the related institutions to lead the negotiation process. The released an Israeli woman and 2 kids is 2nd batch. First ever hostage released is elderly [around 85 years old] women. Very healthy, get food and water during kidnapping time from Palestinian, and the footage, get again water from the IDF.
