They aren't "trying." The rest of the world is choosing to ignore it for the most part. At least the governments certainly are.

War is disgusting.. no normal human wants it. Yet our politicians and leaders continue to force it upon us. When will the madness end and love/sanity prevail.
Politicians must be held accountable for this . In ALL countries.

Israel: *Bans UN and other international organizations from delivering food along with murdering their workers in Palestine at every opportunity*
Also Israel: "This is the fault of the UN and the international community for not cooperating with us! We're the good guys, it's those Hamas supporters across the entire globe who are to blame!
I know there's sayings about how cutting out a man's tongue doesn't prove you right, but god I'd be glad to never again hear an Israeli genocide apologist.

Fuck Israel. What happened during the holocaust is not a license to inflict similar to others people.
cousteau
The holocaust should've been a life lesson, not an instruction manual.
Matty3D
Israel, the new Nazi Germany!
philmoregraves
They've been deflecting blame the whole time. "This is hamas' fault. They could stop this any time" which if hamas did surrender and turn over arms israel would just steam roll faster
Simusar
Israel intentionally shot at aid workers in Gaza, them deny taking part in starving civilians. They have already become modern day Nazi Germany.

This IS, from the same people who were quoted saying "We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.” They ALWAYS play the victim, always threaten, bully, bribe and try to get out of ANY responsibility, they ARE the bad guys and are influencing SO many things here in the US via AIPAC.
Revicus
I've noticed in general that when different people provide contradictory explanations for the same conclusion, they will all collectively shout down those who question that conclusion, but rarely seem to argue with each other about their mutually incompatible explanations for it. I can only suspect it's due to indifference on whether the explanation's actually correct. The "there is no famine" people will never question the "the famine isn't our fault" people or vice-versa.
Revicus
Genuine disagreements in sincerely held beliefs tend to result in schisms or at least intra-group conflict. I have witnessed one, remarkable example of this I can think of: Infighting among "9/11 truthers" on whether the planes actually existed or were somehow "holograms" covering up the real cause of the damage. It appears there are some theories too stupid for at least some members of this group.
MapleSyrupMafia
Israel: "It's not our fault we've funded Hamas, allowed them to attack so we could justify a genocide or that we are destroying aid going to Gaza or that we are shooting kids trying to get food! Everything is Hamas fault! We're the real victims here!!"
Zyankali
Youtube plays a lot of "adds" recently with messages that Israel is delivering the largest aid in history and the UN is not providing it in Gaza. Its sickening to see this shit and people believe it.

Israel can go fuck itself

Hadrian did nothing wrong. No seriously the city of Rome had a Jewish community during the great revolt and they were left alone. Hadrian even showed mercy after the 1st revolt against him, despite nearly half a million massacred civilians.. but the Zionists launched another genocide just 10 years later and Hadrian declared an 40k level Exterminatus on Judea. This basically killed all the A wholes and only the normal Jews back in Rome and Greece survived.. Zionism got eradicated until the 1840s

Isreal is definitely responsible no matter how much PR and money they spend to deflect the truth of their actions.

It is proven, that Israel
- confiscate humanitarian goods
- block humanitarian auf
- shoot Palestinians at food distribution sites the IDF should provide security for
- shoot Palestinians in general
- target journalists documenting their crimes
rulek
Israeli crimes are irredeemable now. Even the Nazi's were attempting to hide their crimes, not proudly showing them off.
NoGunsNoCats
Fuck you Israel.
Acegammer5
Probably shouldn't have very publicly and illegally detained Gretchen while she was trying to get food to them.
CobainsSarcoma
criticizing israel is the same as criticizing jesus as far as the rest of the world is concerned
american soft power (while there still is any - fat donnie pissfreak is doing his level best to create a soft power vacuum for russia and china to fill) has this as a central tenet - 'you are with us or you are against us'
just to put it into perspective.
pleaseacknowledgethecat
Israel has opened itself to nothing good in the future. I feel for both countries. They’ve both suffered historically, and the innocent civilians are the ones vulnerable. Not the leaders. We have to look at what’s happening worldwide. The widening gap between the people and their governments is alarming.
EgregiousMisnomer
Polls out of Israel are atrocious. A LOT of people there support this, and think it should go even farther.

RIP bro was taken too soon

And why are we supporting Israel?
Khanamana324
Because it’s a joint British/US military base. The only reason israel is legally a country is to provide the US and Britain with a semblance of plausible deniability over the atrocities being committed.
purpledd
AIPAC and right wingers trying to bring about the end of the world (which they think requires all Jewish people to go to Jerusalem).
CALAMOSCOPYJANE
Total insanity
Daliena06
Various countries across the world write big fat checks to Israel. Israel then distributes a portion of this as kickbacks to the politicians. A legal(-ish) way for politicians to turn their country's money into their personal money.
Also supporting the arms industry which is a huge business. Oh, and the religious nuts. And the "Rahhh I hate brown people" pieces of shit. And on and on.
xj4low
This makes more sense. The government sends "aid" to a country, which then sends back a percentage of that "aid" to the politicians. Basically, money laundering from the government to the politicians.

...except Israel relies on literally billions of tax dollars from the US annually to not collapse.
Lockheed, Boeing and other arms manufacturers make a mint selling them bombs but the government is footing the bill for them; they're effectively a proxy state that can enact America's military will without having their explicit fingerprints on things like bombing Iran.

Israel has become the nazis, and this is the Shoah of their own creation
Pikkupanda
That’s what galls me the most. My dad was a skinny first-gen Russian American Jew who volunteered for the Army in 1941, as soon as he turned 17, to fight Nazis.
He returned with a Purple Heart, a Bronze Star, and a stutter from the horrors he saw.
And now his brothers’ kids live in Israel and support this evil? No wonder he and his brothers had a falling out. They’re spitting on what he went through hell to combat.

One can only hope Israel rots.

Hoping isn’t going to achieve anything, we must actively work towards that goal and do so by any means necessary.

Israel says it won't renew the work visa of Jonathan Whittall, the most senior UN aid official in GAZA? Israel controls Palestinian work visas?
purpledd
Israel not only controls the visas, it controls which roads Palestinians can use and not use (including in the West Bank not ruled by Hamas). Israel also decides how to allocate water, who gets building permits, etc. It has been an apartheid regime for decades.
purpledd
Also look into their control of what gets into Gaza for the last two decades. They even banned chocolate at one point. Foods with seeds also banned at times (to prevent growing food). They banned construction material, then blame Gazans for not having bomb shelters. The list goes on and on.
Ladeduh
I'm confused. Are you looking for answers to questions? I'm assuming that Israel controls all visas. I don't know about Whittall though.

Michael Brooks from 2020 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCWtjzKGQ90 starts at 1:13 (but go back a bit to hear the question)
EgregiousMisnomer
I agree with Michael Brooks on near everything, and his point here is completely sound. However, if I were to say "It's complicated", I don't mean understanding the power imbalance or why the atrocities persist is difficult to understand. I'd liken it to American healthcare- what's happening is not complicated, but the reality of fixing it actually is. It's complicated by the entrenchment of religion, power, and money. Those are not things one simply brushes aside.
sektorz
Why did you make this about you though? If you understood his point then why did you need to add all this other stuff? Its also not complicated like at all dude. The US has so much power they can end what's going on in Israel with a phone call. If we had the ability to help end the apartheid in south Africa, a nation we had less influence in we sure as shit are able to do it in a nation we fund almost completely.
EgregiousMisnomer
I was using myself as a hypothetical, nothing more was meant. My point is when someone says "it's complicated", most people are dismissing the whole issue as unsolvable or they don't have a good grasp of things (due to propaganda). What's happening is not complicated, it's genocide because of the politics of racism. Yes, the US meaningfully putting its foot down would fix a lot of things right this moment. But how we get from where we're at to that scenario? It's complicated.

The children in Gaza are so antisemitic that they are purposely starving and dying just to make Israel look bad...

Bla black bla , blame the hamas who still have hostages
LokJok
Palestinians are actually Semites, as they speak a Semitic language. I don't mean that to be snarky, just to point out the irony of the term.
LolStreetJournal
The funny thing is that Modern Hebrew was invented by a Russian Jew, which is why it doesn't sound Semitic. They pronounce things completely wrong. Yemeni Hebrew is probably the closest to what ancient Hebrew sounded like.
imgomg10
Yes , but they also blow airplanes, busses , hijacked civilians.... very nice people .
They are ready for peace , oops - they shout from the river to the sea .... it means jewish out , die.
LokJok
What they don't do is use drone and missile strikes to wipe out generations of families to supposedly kill one person. They also don't occupy lands they werent invited to. Like I said, the US and Israel have killed way more of them than the other way around.
