If it was any other West Asian country doing this, the entire West would be denouncing them and taking action. But because its Israel doing it, this is fine.

Have you not heard about the beheaded babies?

Israel got blank check from rest of the world, Gaza residents will be punished and aint nobody gonna do shit. If Arab states won't do shit, what can we expect from anyone else.

Sucks to be a Gaza resident, but it is a small price to pay for jewish people to have their own country.

Settlers made up a lie about Hamas beheading 40 babies and tricked Biden into saying he saw pictures.

It was later corrected: he didn't see any pictures because there are no pictures.

Because there are consequences of you go against the grain. It's all about money...always. Palestinians have little to no money and influence.

It's sad that this type of comment can be and is often spun as "antisemitism"

I will never fault someone for standing up for their people. In fact, one has to admire the fact that this person put their money (and reputation) where their mouth is. We strongly disagree on the matter, but antisemitism has nothing to do with it.

A question, for me, is where is the same pressure from other players? Where are the mega rich Arabs and Muslims pulling their funding because somebody didn't put out a pro-Palestine message. Step up!

Turns out it was the IJ, and the IDF has miles of receipts. The hosptial itself wasnt even hit.
