Israel destroyed much of Gaza’s internet infrastructure. A Saudi proposal to rebuild it was watered down after Israeli and U.S. protests.

What kind of argument is that? “Fuck the internet if it can be used by terrorists”. By that logic the US should kill their internet because right wing terrorists can use it to organize attack on minorities, women, and political adversaries.]
What they’ll most likely come up with is monitoring all communications and subverting encryption. A nation under digital subjugation. How is this even remotely OK?

Israel’s current leader passed a bill that gives him authority to ignore courts. He’s a dictator wannabe facing multiple corruption charges, hence the genocide in Gaza. Now that the genocide is coming to the end, he wants to go to war Hezbollah so he can stay in power and avoid those charges with his immunity. It’s a typical fascist state. From their Zionist ideology to genocide.

I read that there have been protests, but I don’t understand how this dude is still leader. Does he still have enough support from the rest of the population? Also, why is the USA supporting this genocide? It just doesn’t make sense to me.

Is the genocide coming to an end because the international community stepped in, or because there aren’t any Palestinians left? I’ve been away from the internet and haven’t seen the news lately

Yeah that's Gaza. No seriously, the surveillance Israel subjects Gaza to would make the Stasi blush.
