Wael Al Dahdooh, the Gaza bureau chief for Al-Jazeera, has just landed in Doha to receive medical treatment.

The first time he's taken a break from reporting since Oct 7.

He managed to keep going even when he lost multiple family members, including his children, in Israeli military air strikes.

I don't deny the Iran-aligned groups have self-interested reasons for doing what they're doing, but it's interesting how DC rhetoric always positions the US's enemies as incapable of actually caring about something. It's always a cover.

Is Biden incapable of caring about Israeli civilians?
So much energy is being put into debating whether Iran-aligned groups are attacking because of Gaza, and if they'll stop if Israel's attack on Gaza stops

Because everyone accepts the attack on Gaza is indefensible and if these actions are trying to stop it, it's no contest of what should happen

I despise the Houthis, but I take them seriously
I take them seriously when they say they want to run a caste-based theocracy in Yemen
I take them seriously when they refuse to recognize other Yemeni actors in a peace process
And I'm taking them seriously now when they say they're attacking for Gaza
Like if the Houthis actually mean what they're saying, & would make good on their promise not to attack shipping if Israel's attack on Gaza ceased, you'd have to be a sociopath not to do that.

But a lot of folks can't fathom it. So they say they're terrorists who are doing it for shits and giggles.

I know it shouldn't, but the White House issuing a statement 100 days after 7 October with no mention of the tens of thousands of Palestinian dead was a real punch in the gut

All of the calls. All of the marches. Everything. And the man I voted for can't even recognize Palestinians' humanity

Normal person: It's bad to massacre tens of thousands of civilians.

Crazy person: Oh so you're saying you hate Jews then. You're saying Jews shouldn't defend themselves. You want all the Jews to die so there won't be any more Jews because you hate Jews. Jews Jews Jews Jews Jews.

I had heard that people in Egypt were extremely frightened of speaking out under the el-Sisi regime, so either that's wrong/changed or this is a big enough deal for people to overcome some serious fears.
