Well, you might say they care but…

They seem not to protest much for the release of the Israeli hostages who were taken during the slaughter and rape and torture of 1200 civilians during the Oct 7th invasion and who are now held in Gaza by Hamas. You would think that would be a prerequisite to any possibility of peace…for anyone who genuinely cares.

Hopefully those five brave warriors and the driver are now rotting rat fodder amongst the rubble they made for themselves.

Kind Regards,
Rimmer.

It is interesting that numbers of Jewish students are involved in the pro-Palestine demonstrations at over 50 American universities and colleges this week, against the Israeli war in Gaza, which has killed over 34,000 people and injuring twice that number, two thirds of whom are women and children and caused famine and displacement of most of the Palestinian population.

One of the top demands that students across the country have is for their universities to divest from companies linked to Israel or businesses which profit off of its war with Hamas and by proxy, the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians, they argue.

“I’m a member of this community, and I don’t want this particular community to be profiting from apartheid, from war, from genocide,” Ariela Rosenzweig, a Jewish student at Brown University, was telling Radio 4’s Today this morning.

Also, during the night on the BBC World Service, an interesting interview with Bernie Sanders who condemned the killings and famine.

It's a real pickle, the US leading the humanitarian aid efforts by fabricating a pier ready to delver aid at scale to the starving people of Gaza in about a weeks time, while continuing with the provision of military armaments to Israel. These hypocrisies sit very uncomfortably, with Gen Z at the universities.

Time for the US to show leadership and stop this war, isn't it ? ...

It is not Israel’s war it is Israel defending and protecting its people from rape and slaughter.

Your repeated figure of 34,000 casualties* is supplied by the Hamas government, which are the same Hamas which conducted the atrocities against Jewish women and children. They cannot be trusted, to say the least, nor those useful idiots who parrot the claim without scepticism.

Compare this however with the deliberate attack and weaponisation of rape by Hamas on the women in Israel.

Those ‘caring’ students seem not to care too much about the rape and murder of young Jewish women of similar age to themselves. Rape and murder which Hamas have confirmed will be repeated again and again and again.

…unless they are stopped.

Kind Regards,
Rimmer.

* Collateral casualties in war are usually predominantly women and children, which is obvious given women and children are the majority of most populations.
