Israel has been accused of admitting Gaza ethnic cleansing and launching a psychological warfare tactics on Palestinians.

Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”

The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.

The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC

    Okay, I’ll spell it out then.

    Before the election, there were all sorts of people crowing about the one genocide going on that they could use to get their fascist elected, and now that that very fascist is accelerating that very genocide - fucking crickets.

    Those pre-election gEnOcIdE people were being disingenous then, as is evidenced by the deafening silence now.

      You are literally talking to one. And frankly, you are covering your eyes because you are uncomfortable with the fact that they are STILL protesting the genocide.

      But go ahead and try to act like they aren’t being consistent. Cling to your conspiracy theories rather than recognizing the party needs to change to be responsive to it’s voters.

        You’re the one talking about Democrats, not me.

        How much effort have you put in to voicing your concerns about the Uighurs, Sudanese, Congolese? Or is it just this genocide you don’t like?

          The US wasn’t sending weapons to support those genocides for you.

          First, yes, I’ve complained about those.

          Second, We aren’t funding any of those genocides as a matter of US policy.

          Tell me what the US is supposed to do short of invading China, Sudan, or the Congo? The best you could say is more tariffs against china for the Uighurs. For the others we have basically no leverage beyond maybe USAID.

            And who’s trying to shut that down? Biden’s out, Harris lost. Who’s in charge of all three branches of the US federal government now, and what are they doing to resolve this one genocide?

              Nice pivot. I see you really don’t want to stay on the subject of Israel because it was a major problem with the DNC.

              Just because I’m identifying a problem with the DNC doesn’t mean that I didn’t vote for them or that I support Trump. Kamala would have been better than Trump as a president, no doubt. However, She and Biden both had horseshit positions on Israel and actively worked to silence dissent on the subject. It doesn’t matter that the RNC is cheering to nuke the middle east, their base loves that rhetoric.

                But yeah, keep bitching about Democrats while the fascists burn the world down.

                  Yes, I will keep complaining because I want Democrats to win. They can’t win elections by ignoring the base.

                  Your “never call out Democrats” is exactly the problem with the party. It’s what has led them to losing all three branches. The reason Republicans won is because they pointed out the problems with the US, said “fascism will fix everything”, and they are delivering.

                  FFS, it isn’t even that Biden didn’t do a lot of good (outside of Israel and the border). However, he and the party ran from the positive actions they took. They did that for fear that they’d scare away a “moderate” Republican. Their messaging was “at least we aren’t them” and that’s what lost the election. It’s what lost the Hillary election in 16.

                  So yes, I blame Biden, Harris, and the DNC for losing a winnable election to a fascist. I can’t blame those that stayed home or voted 3rd party, how can I blame someone that couldn’t stomach the choice between two active participators in a genocide? It was a choice between Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy and you are saying “well, Ted’s not quite as cruel when he murders people”.
