Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Shame on these nations for supporting this genocidal regime. Their propaganda, lies and weapons to Israel will forever be a deep moral stain on the West.

Only took them 10 months to start pushing back slightly on genocide.

The genocide has been a decades-long effort - it's only been undeniable for 11 months.

Oh my God, this is horrible! Remember, anything but full, unwavering support for everything Israel does is so antisemitic it may as well be a second Holocaust!

/s because apparently many people actually think that way.

Yes please keep going UK and bring Australia along. This sick relationship with Israel needs to stop.

"curb" is a bit of a stretch. They merely limited 30 of over 300 arms export licenceses. It is a start, but there is still a long way to go. And every day that goes by wihtout a clomete military and economic exclusion of all illegal israeli activities from its supporters, more people are murdered, more land is stolen, more homes are destroyed, with the complicity of Israels supporters.

The ICJ has concluded in its advisory opinion, that the occupation of Gaza, East jerusalem and the Westbank are all illegal and must end. It is complicity in crime to support these illegal occupations in any way, including by engaging economically with the occupation.

I appreciate every bit of good news, no matter how little, how late. Hoping the genocide can somehow end...
