    Well the correct name would be extermination camp.

    The concentration camp is where people are rounded up. The extermination camp is where the mass slaughter happens.

    So Israel is transforming Gaza from a concentration camp to an extermination camp.

    They’ve been doing it for decades. It’s just getting more and more concentrated.

    “This time, the IDF intends to evacuate all residents of the Gaza Strip to a new concentration camp humanitarian zone that will be arranged for long-term stay, will be enclosed, and anyone entering it will first be checked to ensure they are not a terrorist. The IDF will not allow a rogue population to refuse evacuation this time. Anyone remaining outside the concentration camp humanitarian zone will be implicated. This plan has American backing.

      As an American, i do not back this. That makes fuck-all difference, i realize. But please know this is not a policy many Americans voted for nor support. This is so unbelievably fucked up.

        I don’t think you could have voted for somebody else and not have the same events unfold in the exact same way they did in Israel.

      It was just as bad under the Democrats, you were just a genocide denier when it was your team doing it. In that sense, Trump is actually better, because at least you BlueMAGA libs will actually condemn the genocide now.

        I can’t help but repeat myself again from seven months ago.

        If Harris wins, the Democratic base will continue to sleep. You can do anything when the Dems are in the WH. It was under Trump that protesters shut down airport terminals, but under Biden the base sleeps regarding immigration & asylum. That’s what Glenn Greenwald and I learned from the GWB to Obama transition: the Dems sleep when their team is in office. Greenwald “changed” from hero to villain without changing the least bit; the only difference was who was in office. Unlike the Dem-aligned media, he didn’t go to sleep.

        You can war as much as you want. You can run a fucking star chamber. You can stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody.

        Anyway, I’m on my way to the Hands Off! protest in a bit.

      1. This is not a “worse” genocide. It’s the same genocide that Biden & Harris aided & abetted, and given that there was “no daylight” between them, it would have continued uninterrupted & unimpeded.
      2. The DNC subverted the primary process and installed a pro-genocide, incumbency-stained loser candidate by fiat, who ran such a garbage campaign that she lost to a reality TV clown. This was a self-inflicted loss due to a panoply of unforced errors.
      3. 📺 Why the Democratic Party CANNOT and WILL NOT be Reformed Democrats would rather lose to a Republican, to a conservative, to a fascist, to Trump, than address the material conditions of the American people.

      It would have been just as bad. They were already mass exterminating, the difference is you ghouls don’t care when your guy is the one giving the orders

      At least this way we get to watch the stain that is the American empire crumble to the ground. In the long run this may even result in Palestinian liberation, once Israel’s enablers abandon them
