The Israeli parliament gave preliminary approval on Monday to a bill that declares the main United Nations relief organisation for Palestinians a terrorist organisation and proposes to sever relations with the body, Reuters reports.

The vote against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) is the latest step in an Israeli push against the Agency, which Israeli leaders have accused of collaborating with the Hamas Movement in Gaza.

Israel has said hundreds of UNRWA staff are members of terrorist groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, but has yet to provide evidence to a UN-appointed review.

Crickets would be immense improvement to arming and supporting a genocide.

  2. Things we can do once we have secured #1

We’re on phase 1 just yet. You want phase 2.

So just genocide as usual and “nothing will fundamentally change” like Biden.

Always making excuses instead of holding politicians accountable means nothing will get done. She was already part of the Biden regime so she is party to the genocide.

Eh, she’s Vice-President. That barely means anything. Her office didn’t even know Biden was planning on dropping out. So far her only job is to break ties and tell immigrants not to come into the country. I won’t judge her on this genocide until she’s President (which hopefully she will be).

Oh of course, those pesky genocides are gonna have to wait until we are able to spend 3 days in january, at most, putting down another coup. You understand that genocide is more important than whether your team wins an election, right?

Of course it is a .ml user pretending Repubs don’t want more genocide in more places.
