TEL AVIV, Israel — The Israeli military says it has launched a new ground offensive in Gaza, sending troops back into areas they had retreated from during a nearly two-month ceasefire. This comes a day after Israel broke the ceasefire with a punishing series of airstrikes that killed more than 400 people, many of whom were children, and wounded hundreds more.

The IDF said it aims to expand what it calls the “security perimeter” separating Gaza and Israel, and to create a “partial buffer zone” between the north and south of the Gaza Strip. The IDF says it has “taken control and re-established” its presence in the Netzarim corridor, the large strip of land dividing Gaza’s north and south that troops had occupied during the war and retreated from as part of a January ceasefire agreement.

    At least NPR are saying Israel broke the ceasefire. NYT managed to report on Israel attacking while not explicitly saying that Israel violated the ceasefire.

    You did it, Americans! You saved Gaza!

    And the power infrastructure in Ukraine??? Secure the safety of the minerals and the Nobel is surely yours for Dear Leader.

      No one expected anything different from Trump. Biden was held accountable for refusing to listen to his base. If they ignore their base then they deserve to lose. Hopefully the days of voters allowing their politicians to do anything they want without consequence is over.

        Yes, I’m sure Donald “You’ll never have to Vote Again” Trump is working hard to make that a reality, good job.

          Much the way Biden said nothing will fundamentally change? And he was right, nothing changed for the rich while we got fucked. Good job.

        No. Biden refused to listen to 10% of his base in the hopes of keeping the 90% happy. That 10% decided they’d “hold Biden accountable” by supporting Republican flavored genocide, because reasons. Congratulations, I’m sure Biden really learned his lesson.

          Never was there ever a poll with 90% of Democrats in support of Israel’s war. Usually the strong majority of Democrats wanted it stopped. You’re just writing fan fiction here so you can feel good about dismissing a genocide as a worthwhile political event.

          Well, if the 90% of his base is why he was supporting Israel, I’m sure they are happy with this result as well, so whatever the 10% did doesn’t really change anything. You sound pretty chippy for getting to blame the 10% for everything the Democrats did wrong, so clearly you’re part of that 90%.

      Let’s discus a truce with ruzzia now! Trump is the best negotiator! I think if we (not Ukraine) just give all Ukrainian territory to Putin then he probably won’t murder the Ukrainians that are still alive. Wonderful negotiations. Let’s discus the stoppage of violins coming in from Gina into mejico too.

      Also recommended: The ‘No Thanks’ app to scan barcodes or look up company names with your phone and see if the brand is invested in Israel.

          Posting any slightly pro Palestine comment or following pro Palestine content creators will also put you on a list.

          It is time to stop worrying about their lists. The movement has grown beyond the size where Zionists can stalk and blackmail singular individuals.

          But for those worried about lists the website link is also a great option.
