Israeli attacks on Tuesday killed at least 174 Palestinian children in Gaza, causing “one of the largest one-day child death tolls” in the territory’s history, the civil society group Defense for Children has said.

“Israeli forces have signed a death warrant for Palestinian children in Gaza as they carry out nonstop attacks, continue to destroy civilian infrastructure, and prevent any humanitarian aid from reaching Palestinians in need,” Ayed Abu Eqtaish, accountability programme director at DCIP, said in a statement.

“This is nothing short of genocide.”

Not so fun fact: Israel has killed more than 5 times as many children in one night as were killed in total on oct 7.

Looks like Trump's peace plan is going well.

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What's so infuriating is that Trump views "ending the war" as the goal itself. He doesn't much care how or who benefits/loses. Just "end the war". It's what he's doing in Ukraine as well and he's just going to bully the weaker nation into surrender simply to bring about an end.

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

His definition of ending the war is genocide, plain and simple. If there's no one to fight back, the war is won.

Then he can go sunbathing and jerk off Benji and Pussytin right on his face for sunscreen.

The Zionists are literal Nazis

Sadly this is true. It's come full circle in the most horrific way. It's a lesson we should always remember

Curse your name, beasts of Zion.

The fact the world threw their fists behind you is fucking disgusting.

Not the world, just the US.

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 month ago

the US is easily the worst but most of the imperial core is complicit too

Not surprising

Germany sees the Zios committing genocide and nods approvingly.

"As long as it's the right races doing it, they have our unwavering support"

[–] nogooduser@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

I think that a lot of the west said that Israel has their support provided that they respect international law even though it was obvious that they weren’t obeying the law and never intended to.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I dont see anybody putting up tanks to stop the genocide. No, I dont care that the dog has a big master.

[–] Flyswat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago

The Houthis, man. They are courageous to put up with the dog and its master.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 14 points 1 month ago

At this point, I wonder if the Gaza strip has a single undemolished building

[–] TheDeadlySquid@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Where’s the outrage against the Trump Administration? Biden never got a break in this, why him?
