As the UN Security Council passed a binding U.S.-sponsored resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza on Monday, Israel continued to slaughter Palestinians in Gaza — despite U.S. officials’ insistence that the ceasefire is backed by Israeli officials.
Hamas officials have said that they accept the resolution and look forward to negotiating details like how many Palestinian prisoners will be released, Reuters reports, citing senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri. Zuhri added that it is up to the U.S. to decide whether or not it will put proper pressure on Israel to abide by the plan.
In response to President Joe Biden’s announcement of the U.S.’s three-phase ceasefire agreement at the end of May, Netanyahu said that a ceasefire was a “non-starter” until Gaza “no longer poses a threat to Israel.”
Further undermining U.S. officials’ claims that Israel agrees to the ceasefire resolution is the fact that Israel has continued shelling Gaza and killing Palestinians in the time around and after the vote.
The Gaza health ministry reported on Tuesday that Israel had killed 40 Palestinians and wounded 120 in the previous 24 hours, while video posted online showed Israel shelling tents in a supposed safe zone in central Gaza on Tuesday.
So… Is it a genocide now? Or are we going to wait until Jared Kushner takes advantage of the “prime real estate”?

you still can’t prove intent - - those still arguing it isn’t a fucking genocide
Ah. I just figured it all out. This was part of his peace in the east plan except trump was supposed to be in power so Israel and Russia can push facism and genocide
Why are you getting down voted? That sounds about right and why all these dictators and genocides are loving Trump. Its probably not a close knit plan, more like a dictator to dickhole vibe check.
Yeah. I was just memeing. Surprised by the votes but 🤷♂️
