This is a charmer by a shithead no good facist:

'Netanyahu, meanwhile, criticized Egypt publicly for its refusal to accept Palestinian refugees from Gaza. He recently accused Egypt of "imprisoning against their will residents in Gaza who want to leave a war zone."'

I.e, we are going to require YOU to take refugee as we bomb the crap out of them.

Israel has started complaining to the US about Egyptian military deployments in the Sinai. Presumably because it would make it more much difficult to forcibly press the Palestinians into their territory.

Canada, Australia and UK recognize Palestinian statehood

Australia, Canada and the UK announced their recognition of Palestinian statehood, in an apparently coordinated move that piles pressure on Israel and puts the three countries at odds with the US...


Besides this obviously denoting Israel's decimated influence across the west that the US could not prevent it speaks to our own.

Empty actions that will have no impact made to provide some lines in speeches at the UN this coming week.

It's the same old crap with conditions that will never be met.

Tail wags dog...

US could hit entire International Criminal Court with sanctions soon​

THE HAGUE/WASHINGTON, Sept 22 (Reuters) - The United States is considering imposing sanctions as soon as this week against the entire International Criminal Court, putting the court's day-to-day operations in jeopardy in retaliation for investigations of suspected Israeli war crimes.

Washington has already imposed targeted sanctions on several prosecutors and judges at the court, but naming the court itself in the sanctions list would be a major escalation...

I think it will have an impact, just maybe not in the way you expect. It can influence public perception of the conflict and strengthen the legitimacy of the Palestinian cause. It can worsen Israels already deteriorating image where it is seen as not caring for a settlement and simply have no interest in peace. N'yahoo and his ministers are seethng over this and may annex the West Bank as a response.

Unfortunately, I do not share your optimism.
In my opinion, there will be no turning back.
When 2 of the most powerful countries on earth are raising up their holy books as justification for wiping out a people and and taking their land, that's sort of thing follows a natural course.

The pieces are all in place for this to succeed and get people to turn a blind eye as to how they go about it.

My "optimism" is not an optimism when we look at the facts on the ground. Just stating the ramifications Pal statehood recognition in terms of public perceptions and legitimacy for it. Its why Israel is so pissed off about it.

israel continues to attack boats in international waters


Italy is sending a ship to assist


but by the time it get's there israel will have likely sunk them

~
"Regarding the attack suffered in recent hours by the Sumud Flotilla vessels, which also include Italian citizens, carried out using drones by currently unidentified perpetrators, we can only express the strongest condemnation. In a democracy, even demonstrations and protests must be protected when they are conducted in compliance with international law and without resorting to violence.

“To ensure assistance to the Italian citizens on the ‘Flotilla,’ this morning at 3:50 a.m., despite being in Estonia, after a meeting with the Chief of Defence Staff and a quick and summary assessment of the incident, I spoke with the Prime Minister and authorized the immediate intervention of the Italian Navy's multi-purpose frigate Fasan, which was sailing north of Crete as part of Operation Mare Sicuro. The frigate is already en route to the area for possible rescue operations.

Netanyahu's trip to the US takes unusual route.

article-35.jpg


Netanyahu flies circuitous route to UN summit ‘to avoid arrest’ in Europe​


Benjamin Netanyahu has again taken a significantly longer flight route than necessary, avoiding the airspace of several European countries, this time while en route to the UN in New York...

Shorter, more fuel-efficient routes may have flown across France, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and the UK. Those countries have all signed the ICC statute and would be legally required to arrest and surrender Netanyahu to The Hague-based court if he entered their territory.

While there is disagreement over whether a country’s military should enforce the rule by forcing a plane to land, the case would be much clearer if Netanyahu’s plane were to make an unscheduled or emergency landing...

I know this is way too little, too late…but Microsoft finally told Israel to stop using its cloud for mass surveillance of Palestinians. They should never have allowed it in the first place (a full 2 years before October 7 even happened).

It’s a largely symbolic move to appease investors and others putting pressure on Microsoft to reexamine its relationship with Israel.

Of course, they’re allowing Unit 8200 to exfil all of the collected data and move it over to AWS.

Israels intensive propaganda campaign is becoming less effective as seen by shifting perceptions in the west. Mainly being undone by social and independent media and various other news sources.

So their solution is to get Zio-billionaires to takeover more of these news, media, entertainment companies and install their own ppl to re-establish conrol of the narrative.

Larry Ellison, besides taking over Tik-Tok... already controls CBS, Paramount, MTV, Comedy Central, Showtime, Nickelodeon (which makes kids shows) as well as Channel 10 in Australia and Channel 5 in the UK. Ellison is also expected to finalize control over Warner Bros. Discovery (including CNN, HBO and the Discovery channel) before the end of 2025.

Just waiting for Trump to wade into this and threaten to exclude UEFA (lololol) from the upcoming World Cup if this action is taken. Do it.
