It doesn’t feel like a coincidence that all these major Zionist accounts are suddenly concerned about a situation they have manufactured consent for everyday for 20 months.
Rosenberg is always interesting to watch, as he's one of the more sophisticated hasbara pundits. Something horrible must be coming, and they are trying to get ahead of it by pinning it on Trump/Smotrich in order to prevent mass delegitimization of Israel per se.

.@SenAmyKlobuchar: "Acute malnutrition is rising. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed in recent weeks while seeking food, most in the vicinity of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation distribution sites and others on the routes of aid convoys. This is simply unacceptable."
This is the best ever true news BBC ever made about Israel, 4 minutes but every minute is extremely important
It's funny, in a sad way, that the take of the so-called wonks, the process guys, the numbers guys, is there mass starvation happened out of the blue
this implies that the dire situation in gaza happened overnight, as opposed to being the final chapter in a series of escalating horrors by the state of israel. not just callous, completely implausible
So it played out exactly as the United Nations, the World Food Program, and 115 mainstream aid groups said: It was Israeli authorities who were holding up the aid; they held the power to keep it out or let it in.
BREAKING: Aid trucks have started moving from Egypt toward Gaza and are expected to enter tomorrow morning, after receiving approval from Israel.
A daily reminder that Medicare for All would save $650 billion and 68,000 lives each and every year, according to the Republican CBO Director and the Yale University School of Public Health.
Americans now spend more on health care than groceries or housing, with health care accounting for approximately 20% of household expenditures, according to the New York Times.
"thank you for choosing amtrak" no problem there are no other trains
The teenagers and adults also don’t deserve to be bombed and starved. You can also say that. We don’t need to accept the framing that they are guilty by age.
I just don’t have it in me to even think about strategic ways to pressure anyone at this point. It’s been two years of an ongoing genocide and now children are so weak from starvation they can’t even cry. Imagine starving a child to the point you silence them. 1/
I walked from northern Gaza all the way to the south, just searching for a bag of flour something, anything to feed my family and my nieces and nephews who haven’t tasted bread in days. I heard that aid trucks had entered through the Morag crossing, so I ran ran like a madman…
The US defunded the primary UN organization feeding the people of Gaza in Jan 2024 and no one batted an eye. They did it to help Israel use aid as a weapon of war. Now as the predicted famine arrives in full everyone is throwing their alibis together and it makes me fucking sick
I'm tired of people acting like centrism is the intelligent position to take. You're not blowing anyone's minds by mentioning that both sides on a given issue have their faults. You're saying absolutely nothing of substance.
they see the starvation campaign escalating to its obvious conclusion and know it’s repulsive, so they feel the need to get out in front of it here so they can feign moral outrage for actions they’ve been abetting for 2 years. classic western response to try and save face
Actually why is the dam breaking on Gaza so suddenly. This has been going on for nearly two years now.
All I can think about right now is the title of Omar El Akkad's book: One day, everyone will have always been against this.
You can make a difference in the lives of people facing the unimaginable right now, please share/donate if you can.
From the heart of the camp⛺️, in the midst of suffering and displacement, I extend my heartfelt thanks to my friend @willmenaker and all of his kind followers for their support and donations to our campaign🔗(chuffed.org/project/129541…) smiles have returned to our children’s faces —…
GHF’s sudden shift from denying starvation in Gaza to blaming the UN is clearly a coordinated PR blitz—reminded me who their security contractor’s crisis comms firm is. @SevenLetter @sabrinasingh24 @awestabrams @BrendanBuck, are you behind this messaging push?
Oh I see—it's a coordinated rollout: the IDF, GHF, and complicit outlets like @Jerusalem_Post are all pushing the new line: yes, there's starvation, but it’s the UN’s fault for refusing to play nice with the GHF. Expect this talking point to be everywhere soon.
As more nations and world leaders speak out against Israel's violations of international law the people persecuted by governments for opposing Israel's impunity will not have their records cleared or be re-hired. The people killed in Gaza will not be brought back to life!
There should probably be a political price paid for doing nazi propaganda on government accounts
The loli Nazis are happy. We live in hell, man.
There’s probably a Pulitzer Prize winning history to be written that’s just about the destabilizing political effects of oil prices going up in the 70s, down in the 80s, up in the 00s, and down again in the 2010s It is just this major through line through everything
Kinda crazy how Iran-Contra was a way worse version of Watergate yet the populace, at that point more right-wing, nationalist, and distrustful of government, just shrugged its shoulders at such obvious levels of Presidential criminality. Really does shade all actions ever since.
