"A military invasion in Rafah would be CATASTROPHIC... There can be no more 'evacuations.' There is no safe place to go," said Oxfam, calling for an immediate cease-fire.

“Such an invasion could lead to horrific massacres and raise scenarios of a second Nakba,” the Gaza-based Palestinian Center for Human Rights said recently. “After 200 days of horrific genocidal acts in Gaza, the real objectives of the attack are the continuation of the 76-year-long ongoing Nakba and the erasure and genocidal destruction of the Palestinian people in Gaza. Israel is laying the groundwork to fulfill its settler-colonial plan of colonizing Gaza.”

Human rights defenders have warned that Israel may ultimately seek to ethnically cleanse as many Palestinians as possible from Gaza.

          Right, being crass on Twitter is why people don’t like him. Has nothing to do with being a fascist who wants to dismantle the democracy of the US and become a dictator

            Yes, correct, that is why you don’t like him. Like if you actually step back and look at him from a perspective that isn’t obsessed with decorum and norms, he is a standard, moderate Republican. Which, yeah, is still evil; but he’s legitimately the least evil Republican president since Eisenhower, and you all talk about him like he’s a cross between Tywin Lannister and Voldemort.

              Trump is the only US President to ever plot to overthrow the US government.

              There is no argument here. You are simping for a fat rich sack of shit who tried to end US democracy.

              Trump literally floated using the US military as a mercenary force, among a giant swathe of other fundamentally terrible policies he furthered, not to mention the broad and very obvious corruption under his administration just a few years ago. What in the fuck are you even talking about?
