Israel could kill everyone left in Northern Gaza if its assault on the enclave continues, a United Nations relief official warned on Saturday

“Hospitals have been hit, and health workers have been detained. Shelters have been emptied and burned down. First responders have been prevented from saving people from under the rubble. Families have been separated, and men and boys are being taken away by the truckload,”

Msuya estimated that Israel’s actions in the north had killed hundreds and displaced tens of thousands. According to Al Jazeera, an Israeli siege on the north that began earlier in October has killed around 640.

“The Biden-Harris administration must stop the flow of U.S. weapons to Israel which constitutes a necessary step to halting Israel’s ongoing war crimes,” IMEU wrote on social media Saturday. “It’s time for an arms embargo now.”

That's been the point the entire time

The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying.

Terrifying, but also completely obvious, and somehow most politicians don't seem to be upset at the vast loss of innocent life by state terrorism.

It's because their families aren't the ones getting bombed....

"But you see, it's not me, it's not my, family, in your head, in your head, they are fighting, with their tanks, and their bombs, and their bombs, and their guns, in your head, they are crying."

Because to them, no lives matter. Except their own of course.

That's not true, some of them care about their kids

The blood of their own people is also on their hands... because the IDF and the Netanyahu government uses them as human shields; it's a fact that they play fast and lose with Israeli lives. Remember that they had intelligence an attack was highly likely around the month of Oct... they still let that music festival continue and didn't attempt to evacuate or even warn the kibbutz near the walls surrounding Gaza. They wanted any kind of attack to be at least marginally successful so they could justify bulldozing and occupying Gaza so that settlements could commence there.

Yes. You're replying to someone saying Because to them, no lives matter. Except their own of course. And 'no lives matter' doesn't distinguish based on nationality as listed on e.g. a passport.
