World Central Kitchen founder José Andrés said in an interview with Reuters on Wednesday that the seven World Central Kitchen workers who were killed by an Israeli strike while delivering aid Gaza earlier this week were targeted “systematically, car by car.”
“This was not just a bad luck situation where ‘oops’ we dropped the bomb in the wrong place,” Andrés said. “Even if we were not in coordination with the [Israel Defense Forces], no democratic country and no military can be targeting civilians and humanitarians.”
“The U.S. must do more to tell Prime Minister Netanyahu this war needs to end now,” Andrés told Reuters a day later.
Really wish we would cut off all aid to Israel and all weapons sales.
But then politicians would miss out on that sweet, sweet lobbying cash and votes.
Republicans really need the cash so they want Israel to “finish” the job.
Biden is like, “Cut it out guys”. Israel, “fuck you”. Biden, “Come on man”.
I wish there was the ability to recall federal representatives.
So a genocide against the Israeli people from the Arab world can begin? You guys only like selective genocide against people you don’t like
So to you “stop giving weapons to Israel” = “genocide Israel”?
Yes. That’s literally the Arab world’s stance, that if it weren’t for American help, they would have wiped out every Jew in the middle east. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills here and I’m the only one who remembers the history of Israel and how badly every nation around them wants them gone. The only thing is that Arabs hate Palestinians just as much as they hate Israeli Jews.
You appear to have forgotten the ethnic cleansing they committed against Palestinians at their very inception, and the one that came later, and the one they’re committing now. Unless you think that ethnic cleansing is fine when Israel does it.
I have to say if you think an American wanting to end their military support for Israel must be in favour of a genocide against Israelis then yeah maybe you are.
Surely you must understand some people oppose genocide regardless of the target?
Yeah, I think he’s suggesting that genociding is fundamental to the Israeli identity. To oppose it is to oppose Israel itself.
They shouldn’t have denied palestinean rights. Karma is real.
If you provide arms and aid, that’s called vertical integration.
