Bernie Sanders May 08, 2025

[based on speech given to US Senate]

"Thursday marks 68 days and counting since ANY humanitarian aid was allowed into Gaza. For more than nine weeks, Israel has blocked all supplies: no food, no water, no medicine, and no fuel.

Hundreds of truckloads of lifesaving supplies are waiting to enter Gaza, sitting just across the border, but are denied entry by Israeli authorities.

… Defense Minister Israel Katz said, “Israel’s policy is clear: No humanitarian aid will enter Gaza, and blocking this aid is one of the main pressure levers.” "

    It’s amazing how people can just fabricate entire concepts on lemmy. The idea that I think the USA is faultless cannot be found anywhere in my history. Sure, you could read a sentence and hallucinate that it means something else—but you’re aware of what you’re doing. Do you use that tactic to make me feel bad? Because it just makes me feel sad for you. It must be some kind of psychosis?

      Literally every country on earth is doing nothing. Where is your precious China, ML? Why don’t you harp about that? Oh right, it’s because you don’t actually care about Gaza or genocide.

      You cant see how that reads as stop being mean tk the usa, they arent doing anything wrong?

      Also way to again distract from the genocide and blocking of aid…

        I’m just criticizing China because they are ML. And they don’t care about genocide when it doesn’t make the US look bad.

        It’s not a distraction, it’s a direct comment to OP.

        It probably would have been good to address them by name to avoid confusion.
