UN Special Committee finds Israel’s warfare methods in Gaza consistent with genocide, including use of starvation as weapon of war
NEW YORK (14 November 2024) – Israel’s warfare in Gaza is consistent with the characteristics of genocide, with mass civilian casualties and life-threatening conditions intentionally imposed on Palest...

UN Special Committee has concluded what Israel is doing is consistent with genocide. When will the arms embargo start? The US will ignore this of course.

As you read the news today, watch who phrases the news as an "illegal invasion and regime change" versus "bringing democracy". It'll tell you everything you need to know about the news source you're reading, and frankly should decide whether you ever read them seriously again.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.
This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

People being like, "But Venezuelans are happy about Maduro being gone!" have the memories of goldfish. IN 2003, the narrative was that Iraqis celebrated the U.S. invasion and capture of Saddam.
Whether they were happy or not, invading Iraq was still the wrong thing to do.

Self-imposed censors on military matters, truly absurd
(Semafor) - The New York Times and Washington Post learned of a secret US raid on Venezuela soon before it was scheduled to begin Friday night — but held off publishing what they knew to avoid endangering US troops ..

Venezuela’s new leader is a socialist true believer who helped Nicolás Maduro maintain his grip on power for more than a decade.
Venezuela’s New Leader Is a Hardline Socialist Like Maduro
Delcy Rodríguez is known as a political operator, someone Trump said is “willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again.”

This is like saying Lincoln shouldn’t have abolished slavery because it didn’t poll well
I’m saying that the soil in the US for Palestinian anti-colonialism is infertile. If you haven't figured out by now that most people are largely indifferent to a fight between two bands of non-christian foreigners who’ve been at it for 80 years, nothing I can say is going to enlighten you.

Israeli authorities calculated the minimum caloric intake needed for the strip’s population to avoid malnutrition, a policy which critics have termed “calibrated starvation”
“The idea,” said Dov Weisglass, “is to put the Palestinians on a diet, but not to make them die of hunger”

There are US citizens who spent 2024 mourning multiple loved ones in Gaza.
It isn’t sufficiently unpopular, when taking place thousands of miles away in another country without our direct involvement (I’m talking boots on the ground, not financing) to trigger a populist uprising against it in the United States. Trump declared a ceasefire and everyone forgot about it.

For other countries it is unfortunately seriously worth thinking about how in two successive cases in a row the United States seemingly has used negotiations as a feint from the very beginning while preparing devastating and senseless bombing campaigns which they execute no matter what
