Seems most of the evidence released over night points to Hamas errand rocket, and nowhere near 500 casualties and the hospital isn't actually leveled just damaged. Unsure how Biden is a bad guy in this particular situation, seems like he waited for the facts to make a declaration...NEws networks blaming Israel with Hamas as their source should kind of be ashamed. fog of war and propaganda on both sides.

  • During a high-stakes trip to Israel, US President Joe Biden urged the region to seek peace and not to be "consumed" by rage as violence continues in the aftermath of Hamas' attacks and Israel's subsequent response.
  • Addressing Tuesday's deadly blast at a Gaza hospital that the Palestinian health ministry said killed hundreds, Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu it "appears as though it was done by the other team, not you." Israel asserts that the bombing was caused by an Islamic Jihad rocket, while Palestinian officials have blamed Israel.
  • Israel has vowed to wipe out Hamas, the Islamist group that controls Gaza, in response to the October 7 terrorist attacks that killed 1,400 people. Nearly 3,500 people have been killed in Gaza, according to Palestinian health officials, with WHO saying conditions are "spiraling out of control" for millions now trapped in the enclave.
Israel will not block humanitarian aid going into Gaza from Egypt, according to a statement Wednesday from the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. But it will not allow supplies into Gaza from its own territory until Hamas releases all hostages.
"In light of President Biden’s demand, Israel will not block humanitarian aid deliveries, as long as they consist water, food, and drugs for the civilian population in the southern Gaza Strip ... and as long as the aid doesn’t reach Hamas," the statement said.
The statement comes shortly after US President Joe Biden said in remarks in Tel Aviv that Israel had agreed to allow aid into Gaza, with the understanding there would be inspections to ensure the supplies are not diverted or stolen by Hamas.

Representative Jim Jordan, the hard-line Republican from Ohio, lost a second bid for speaker on Wednesday after running headlong into opposition from a bloc of mainstream G.O.P. holdouts.

After he failed to win a majority on Tuesday, Mr. Jordan was defeated again when the number of Republicans refusing to back him grew by two. The result left the House in turmoil, still leaderless after two weeks of Republican infighting.

After thinking about it since the Keefe D thing. Probably because they still needed evidence, even if the people admit to it, or it’s pretty much known they did. Still gotta collect evidence for it.

fog of war and propaganda on both sides.
Very much so... and it spills out to the whole planet, which leads to more and more tension in many countries, while most governments chose their side and ignore that there is a lot of blood on the hands of both sides... which will lead to more and more problems as well.

I'm sure it's far fetched to think this, but this whole thing, together with the ongoing Invasion in the Ukraine and other to the brim filled powder kegs, that could easily get ignited, might be the starting point of an actual third WW.

Question is how long it's gonna take until it'll get better again... and how much worse it's gonna get as well.

Tbh it feels like the edge of the abyss here. The Doomsday Clock has sat at 90 Seconds to Midnight.

With the War in Ukraine continuing, crawling its way and dividing all of Europe and North America, we now have the Israel/Palestine crisis.

Things must get better now. Because I believe we, the human race, cannot afford to let things get worse.

If they would change the setting not just at the beginning of a year, I'm sure we'd have something like 60 seconds to Midnight, or something close to that now.
