““The world is judging,” Lammy said. “History will judge them [the #Israeli government]. Blocking aid, expanding the war, dismissing the concerns of your friends and partners. This is indefensible and it must stop.””

    Nothing is ever fucking good for keyboard warriors on the Internet.

      Last time I checked the killing hasn’t stopped, so it doesn’t seem like the time to stop complaining just yet. Our politicians won’t do anything unprofitable (like stepping on Israel’s toes) unless we complain a lot.

        That doesn’t mean you can’t acknowledge movement in the right direction.

              Yes, as they should. Acknowledge the progress in the right direction and keep bitching until the death stops.

              I mean, the politicians basically waited until Israel almost brought out the bulldozers to clear the rubble, so any action against Israel won’t really affect Gaza at this stage

      I literally said it was a good thing in my comment and I’m glad that governments are starting to call it out. But last time I checked people are still dying so it’s not like it’s suddenly over just because governments started doing the equivalent of a strongly worded letter. When people stop needlessly dying that’s when I’ll celebrate.

      There’s a difference between pushing back and killing thousands and thousands of innocent civilians.
