  1. MSNBC you need to just shut down. period! Liars all. One day YHWH (YEA I SAID HIS NAME) is going to run YOUR movie! I can't WAIT to see the judgment HE has in store for YOU!

  2. Netanyahu's nonsense always frustrates the world, yesterday the Shifa hospital in Rafa was attacked by IDF soldiers, 20 people died and 200 residents were taken somewhere, the reason was that the Shifa hospital was a Hamas camp, even though Hamas did not exist at all. Netanyahu and the Idf are evil-mouthed thugs

  3. Netanyahu says what he’s not willing to do, but not what he’s proposing to do in many aspects. Similarly US does the same in respect to Rafa—if Israel should not fight Hamas there, then what should Israel do? Stay in current situation for ever? Leave Gaza and let Hamas regroup? Without proposing tangible alternative to fighting Hamas in Gaza, it feels like there isn’t a tangible alternative. And then Netanyahu gets stronger for objecting a non realistic solution.

  4. Father, I pray 🙏🏽 that you would give wisdom to the hearts of the leaders as they convene. I pray that there would be a fruitful path forward as they seek justice and safety for Israel 🇮🇱 and provision for those Palestinians who are not involved in the violence 🇵🇸. That you would make a way where there seems there is no way. That you move in hearts of all the people's in the region and the world. Protect those who are working for good, whether it be the soldier or the doctor or the faithful ministers or the journalist or leaders. I pray for fruitful vision toward the future and discernment.

  5. Warnings are meaningless when you already know they are ignored. Five months, that's how long you knew starvation was inevitable. That's how long you allowed what you knew was indiscriminate bombing. That's how long you did nothing.

    Oh, I'm sorry, I'm wrong and I should take that back. That's how long you supplied them with the weapons they used to commit crimes against humanity. That's how long you were complicit in what by the legal definition of genocide, the ICJ is extremely likely to eventually find Israel guilty of.

    Words don't save lives. And the only words that ever would have mattered would have been to condemn Israel's actions and to call them what they were. To put pressure on them to stop. Not to veto every UN resolution seeking a ceasefire, not to constantly talk about your support for Israel's absolute right to defend itself. Because ius ad bellum, and to be clear, they have violated the laws governing war times beyond counting, going back decades. I could list all the provisions of the Geneva conventions they've violated, but all anyone has to do is go and read them and mentally check them off on your own.

    Ius ad bellum carves out a justification for wars of self-defence, but the law concerning bellum iustum also provides a long list of prohibitions on categories of action, and protections for civilians, and many particular categories of individual, group and site. All of these have been violated consistently.

    The absolute right to defend yourself is a fiction, because it isn't absolute, indeed, no right ever is, and this isn't a right, it's a justification for war. In the same way that self-defence isn't a right, it's a defence under criminal law, and incidentally, self-defence is also itself justified by appeal to the highly circumstantial prioritisation of one life over another in the event that one party is engaging in illegal violence. That is to say, it's only narrowly construed to cover proportional and necessary violence to save innocent life from the use of unlawful violence.

    Self-defence in war cannot include collective punishment, it cannot ever justify genocide, it cannot under any circumstances justify violations of the rules of war. If anything, those things abrogate the self-defence justification.

  6. Israel protects its citizens. America not only does not protect its citizens, but it allows them to be killed. Israel should Not listen to anything the Biden administration has to say.

  7. LEASE SEND ARMY TO STOP ISRAEL : GENOCIDE IN GAZA !!!
    We stopped nazism in 1944, we have to stop zionism in 2024 !!!
    SAVE THE CHILDREN !! BIDEN, MACRON…REACT PLEASE !!! Would you stop HITLER ? It's the same !!

  8. Bumbling mumbling Biden who has not made one good decision at any level. Especially foreign affairs. Telling a decades of leadership Netanyahu what to do? Biden's lucky to read the Teleprompter and read his little cards telling him what to say and do. 😂😂😂😂

  9. Butcher biden is changing his tune because he wants to be reelected. He is going to lose. No one wants a butcher for president. Another words what he says is bull. He should not give israel one red cent.

  10. When will Biden cut all the aid off from Israel? When? No weapons and not a penny more for Israel. The American taxpayers are fed up with paying for foreign wars.

  11. Biden is warning Israel so hard that he will continue to send them billions of dollars and send endless amounts of weapons. That will show them who the real president is. lol

  12. Why Biden administration not push Egypt and the rest of the Arab countries to give refuge to Palestinians why just pressure Israel who wants to liberate the hostages in Rapha. What is the US doing to help Israel to help release hostages? You cannot be just a policeman you can do something even though there are American hostages. We cannot see anything that the US is doing to help release hostages.

  13. JAKE SULLIVAN IS A DUAL CITIZEN IT SHOULD BE AGAINST THE LAW IN US GOVERNMENT 27 DUAL CITIZENS IN BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IT SHOULD BE ILLEFAL ISRAEL IS A CRIMINAL ILLEGAL STATE COMMITTING GENOCIDE US IS COMPLICIT IN GENOCIDE
