The U.S. will not change its policy on arms transfers to Israel even though the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip remains dire, the State Department said Tuesday, the deadline the White House set for Israel to ramp up access to aid in the besieged Palestinian enclave.
State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel told reporters the decision came as “Israel has taken a number of steps” outlined in a letter from Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to Israeli counterparts last month. “We continue to be in discussion with Israel about the steps they took and other steps they need to take,” he said.
An average of just over 30 trucks a day have been let into Gaza in recent weeks, representing “just over six percent of the daily needs,” according to Philippe Lazzarini, commissioner-general of the United Nations agency assisting Palestinian refugees, UNRWA.
To all of the Harris supporters out there, this is one of the things that people didn’t like about her. She’s part of this problem, even now, after she lost.
OMG you guys. You got what you wanted. You punished the Democratic Party. What did you expect the outgoing administration to do in the last few weeks in power? Gaza is done.
People wanted to push the Democratic party to stop the genocide. Democrats collectively said they needed to support genocide to win the election. Kneeling unconditionally for Israel paid off. Trump sends his regards.
Now the election excuse does not work, you still to support genocide of an entire population to “get back at the anti-genocide people”? (Who are not the people who are being massacared)
The genocide should have been stopped within a single week. It went on for a month. It went on for a year. Every excuse is off the table and now the excuse is “it cannot be stopped with 6 weeks left of Democrats in power?”
Seriously, this is some Nazi shit. The only way you can type your comment is by being so far disconnected from the people being murdered that you do not even see them as human.
