Ceasefire ends as Israeli bombs strike Gaza

Israeli leaders announced that they ordered the strikes after Hamas would not agree to frameworks for a hostage deal proposed by Israeli and the United States.

Israeli warplanes bombed Gaza overnight, bringing an end to the Israel-Hamas ceasefire after two months.

    Trump - “Israel should finish the job”

    Israel - “Well, if you insist!”

    Wonder what would be happening if we had President Harris right now. I mean, this attack would probably still be happening but at least under her protesting would be legal.

      If you look at how they cracked down on protests under Biden I wouldn’t be so sure about that protest part and that’s the actual tragedy.

      Harris or Trump it doesn’t really matter. The difference is that Trump is mask off fuck diplomacy about it while the dems push the brakes a bit to try and keep up the "America good“ narrative that no one believes anymore anyways. As for the groups that were lucky enough to benefit from democrat cronyism, I genuinely feel sorry for them.

      The American people got fucked over badly in this election, their political system failed them.

        lol, yes that is exactly right. Everything between Harris and Trump is exactly the same except Trump’s diplomacy. You really have your finger on the pulse of world events.

          For most of the world, there is no appreciable difference.

            Yeah that’s exactly why I added that paragraph. I genuinely feel sorry for the LBTQ community, the next years are gonna be really bad for them and the dems protected them. The dems were also sligthly better than Trump on migration, but Biden didn’t revert a lot of Trumps policies even though he could have.

            And when we see ICE agents doing Soviet style arrests and when we hear stories of people in immigration detention being abused, do people really think all of this just magically popped up over night when Trump got in power?

            And as for the Middle East, if you post a Trump Gaza video or strongly condemn the killing of civilians, for the people being bombed to shreds by American bombs that literally makes 0 difference. Biden could have stopped sending weapons, he could have voted for ceasefire resolutions, he could have literally bombed Netanyahu if he had wanted to, but he didn’t. He was happy to let the genocide unfold that Trump is now happy to continue.

            But were the dems protecting e.g. the LBTQ community because they care about human rights? Fuck no. And most people on the planet are unfortunately not receiving any of the democrat cronyism so for them it honestly doesn’t matter much.

      Okay, and? If that’s your pitch for “protest voters screwed over Gaza” it definitely ain’t convincing.

      Exactly. She would be like: Terrorist state of Isreal has right to defend itself then giving more money to Isreal.

        She wouldn’t condemn shit. They would have “concerns” and be “looking into it” like they were doing under Biden for 15 months.
