Israel & Palestine: Two-state solution is the only path to peace

[Ulrich]

They (Israel) have made an awful PR form themselves

So has Hamas with their terror attacks... (and some people knew they had their tunnels built and weapons stored under hospitals etc. and they did nothing!)

Anti-Jew feelings are "en vogue" again all over Europe, that is the sad part.

Israel resumes the genocide in Gaza. Varoufakis writes it well: "After two weeks of no supplies to 2 million Palestinians in Gaza, once hunger had returned, Israel unleashed its bombs once again. And so the genocide continues"

Yeah, Mr "Peacebringer" has excelled once more with his diplomatic qualities...

US President Donald Trump issued on Wednesday what he called a "last warning" to Hamas and Gaza residents to release the remaining 7 October hostages held in the Strip.

Mearsheimer said long time ago and also many times more recently: No matter who the President of the US is, they will always do what Israel wants, no matter what. There was no chance Trump would change the US foreign policy towards Israel. He's just continuing the genocide supported by Biden.

No matter who the President of the US is, they will always do what Israel wants, no matter what.

Be that as it may, the current one is wacky and his behaviour "erratic" at best, with no diplomatic skills and allies can't rely on him at all...

President Trump's bombshell proposal for the United States to build a "Gaza Riviera" is now a trending hashtag on social media. In a series of statements this week, he called for Palestinians to leave Gaza indefinitely while it is rebuilt, asking Egypt and Jordan to shelter them in the meantime. He also did not insist on a two-state outcome for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, breaking with a policy sustained by successive Republican and Democratic administrations, including his first term.

Always good to hear Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories:

Finally the people of Gaza stand up against the terrorists!

Hundreds of people have taken part in the largest anti-Hamas protest in Gaza since the war with Israel began, taking to the streets to demand the group step down from power.

Masked Hamas militants, some armed with guns and others carrying batons, intervened and forcibly dispersed the protesters, assaulting several of them.

Hopefully the people of Israel will also stand up against their genocidal government. The Sirius Report:

No other nation on this planet gets a free pass like Israel: Some of the bodies of 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers, killed by Israeli forces and buried in a mass grave nine days ago in Gaza, were found with their hands or legs tied and had gunshot wounds to the head and chest, according to two eyewitnesses.
