China is great for supplying tech and military but don’t expect them to replace the USAID’s help on food across the globe. Produce is about to get a lot more expensive.
Notice how the Israel issue is a lot quieter now despite being worse?
I’ve been arguing with people about the issues for like 2 days straight, so I don’t feel that, but yeah I think it’s less often in the news now that the opportunities to stop it are dwindling.
I mean, the US election is over.
And Russia won.
So, I imagine they’re all hungover to fuck from the celebrations really.
Israel won. Hungary won. India won. Russia won. China won. That must be all the winning Trump talks about, we just export it to our adversaries
China won Big-time
My mistake, I forgot about them somehow
Yeah. And that pisses me off.
And the world is just going to watch this genocide occur cause some people believe their race is superior to all and makes claims to lands 2000 years in the past.
No, there’s just so much messed up it’s hard to care about something happening on the other side of he world.

Sigh, more censorship.
We need more lemmy communities that don’t do this.
I’m excited to hear about the new instance you are hosting. Let us know when it’s online.
I call bs
You could at least be a good troll. Nothing more pathetic than a lazy half-assed troll.
Why? Israel is completely blocking food assistance from getting in and has thoroughly destroyed any infrastructure for food production (or anything else, really.)
What’s difficult to grasp about that?
They probably find difficult to grasp how to pour water in a glass, no worries.

damn, hopefully saudi arabia, qatar, dubai, oman, egypt, or any other trillion dollar petro states can step up and help out
maybe egypt needs to open the gates so they can let aid in?
What a dump take, instead of saying “we have to stop the war criminal, genocide entity” you saying “why no one taking them” like wtf at least read about the history or look over the map instead of making bland useless and irresponsible comments.
what are your thoughts on the sudan war?
Jordan once tried but they’re unlikely to make that mistake again. Look up Black September for more info.

Egypt doesn’t control any gates anymore
They don’t give a shit. Anyone who shows any kind of help or sympathy will be pressured to take on what? 1.5 million people? No one in that area wants that kind injection of foreigners.
what’s stopping them from supplying aid through the Egyptian border?
Israel controls it? In case you weren’t aware
Egypt could open its border for refugees though.
How are the refugees supposed to make it across the occupied Philadelphi corridor when the IDF is known to shoot on sight, and recklessly?
If the border was open, the IDF would let them pass through. There were periods of this war, when the IDF didn’t control Philadelphi.
Egypt has let a limited number of Gazans through the border.
That brings you back to this issue
i’m like why would egypt let israel control it
Egypt tightly restricts the opening of the Rafah crossing, and has kept it shut during previous Israeli bombardments of Gaza in 2021, 2014, and 2008. Since a period of heightened conflict between the Egyptian military and jihadists in the Sinai peninsula began in 2013, Egypt has vastly curtailed movement through the crossing, and banned the entry of aid organisations and journalists into northern Sinai. Palestinians accuse Egypt of bolstering Israel’s 16-year blockade by essentially closing their one exit route out of Gaza.
yep sounds about right
The Philadelphi corridor, which is the border separating Egypt and Gaza is currently controlled by and occupied by Israel, as they refused to withdraw from it as stipulated in the previous ceasefire agreement that they largely ignored.
And what is Egypt doing about that?
You’re really trying hard to shift the blame from your beloved Israeli aren’t ya?
you think egypt is not a dictatorahip that was installed by the US and other Gulf’s dictatorships who all work under Israel’s and US’s shoes?
Between the genocide in Gaza and what’s coming for the West Bank, Palestine might not exist in the next few years. Survivors scattered to the winds.
It’s incredibly sad, but honestly foreseeable. The right wing shift in the west is killing what little sympathy and press coverage there was.
The following should be taken as a bit of a ramble because I want to express this idea I have, and I don’t think it should be taken as any sort of attempt to correct or challenge what you’re saying because I don’t think what you’re saying is in any way incorrect.
I think the right wing shift is a mirage that is being perpetrated by corporate-owned media. That’s not to say that every media outlet is racist or is explicitly attempting to push a narrative, but I think that the large corporations in the U.S., at least, that own news media have a vested interest in not offending both monied and powerful interests. In that regard they are avoiding reporting on topics that will rally the public, or are outright changing how they report on certain topics.
Which is a lot of words to say that I think what we’re seeing is false consensus driven from the top down, rather than a ‘bottom up’ shift in opinion. I think many of the normal folks are ill-informed, or outright propagandized.
Doesn’t change the outcome, or the opinions held by so many, though… sighWhile I think you’re correct, it doesn’t matter if the consensus is false. People believe it to be so, even though they’re categorically wrong, and now the minority actually has control of the government.
The right wing in many countries have been funded by either domestic oil or Russia, there is endless documentation of this going back decades.
But we literally fall for the same gimmick every single time anyway.
In other words the media is propaganda and always has been. Shocker.
That should be obvious as soon as you step off any social platform or physical space controlled by capital. Capital has always been a tool for conquerors.
I’m fearful that the current US presidency is the final nail in Palestines coffin. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t expect them to hang on in time for the next election.
Next election?
In Soviet USA the President chooses the next election.
They haven’t run out. They’ve been prevented from restocking.
“Because they were prevented from restocking, they are now out of food, but this condition need not continue if they are restocked.”. Is that good enough?
