reminder that the starvation campaign started with an international campaign against UNRWA THE DAY that the courts decided against israél. as a distraction, Trudeau and Biden and other world leaders united to destroy UNRWA.
Israel is deliberately starving hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to death right now. The US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, et al are aiding & abetting this mass murder while criminalizing any protest. Capitalism is horror without end, but this horror is beyond comprehension.

"GHF branded 'sadistic death trap' by UN, claiming snipers fire as if given a 'licence to kill'" How angrier can one get??!! This is barbarism. And Western governments are fully complicit. Down with the warmongers.

"Believing a currency issuing nation is broke on "debt" payable in its own currency is a sign of economic illiteracy"
