“(A) doctor who attended was taken aback when she showed Biden prints of photos of malnourished children and women in Gaza—to which Biden responded that he had seen those images before.The problem…was that she had printed the photos from her own iPhone.” nbcnews.com/politics/white…

“‘Angry’ Biden Not Changing Israel Policy after Deadly Strike on Aid Workers”

President Biden’s unwillingness to stand up for Palestinian civilians, international law or US law is so incredibly corrosive to US standing and the rule of law in the eyes of the world.

Stunning interview from a well sourced Israeli reporter. Said the IDF clearly knew this was an aid convoy, that a high level officer must have approved the strike, this a common occurrence only receiving attention because of foreign victims, and any investigation will be a sham.

The Israeli military hit all three cars in the convoy one by one after observing passengers switch vehicles after the first was hit and then transfer wounded to a third vehicle. Members of the convoy 'even notified the people responsible that they were attacked':

We are aware of reports that members of the World Central Kitchen team have been killed in an IDF attack while working to support our humanitarian food delivery efforts in Gaza. This is a tragedy. Humanitarian aid workers and civilians should NEVER be a target. EVER.

This is a truly embarrassing statement from Congressman Brad Sherman. He uses the 13,000 dead Hamas fighters number which I don't think any mainstream news source takes seriously (I'm not even sure the Israeli government takes it seriously). The only way you get to 13,000 is if you consider…

Latest Gallup report finds that 75% of Democratic voters (and 60% of independents) oppose Israeli military action in Gaza.

Really striking disconnect between Dem politicians – most of whom still support the war – and Dem voters here. news.gallup.com/poll/642695/ma…

Really interesting op-ed from Tom Malinowski on how establishment Democratic politics works in NJ.

'[T]he main function of the Dem Party organization in NJ is not to help Dems win the hard races. It is to decide which Dems are allowed to win the easy ones.'

Awful testimonies by civilians keep pouring out of Western Gaza City, describing horrendous behavior by IDF ground troops in the areas surrounding the Al Shifa hospital & the Remal neighborhood: beatings, deprivation, sniper fire, arbitrary detention & execution-like killings…
