An Israeli doctor serving as an army reservist compared killing Palestinians in Gaza to "eliminating cockroaches." Writing on X, surgeon Sabo Amos, said he had volunteered to take part in "eliminations" after his battalion had killed "dozens of terrorists" the previous day. "After all, we're talking about eliminating cockroaches and other loathsome insects," Amos wrote in the now deleted post. Dr. Amos also posted an image which he said showed IDF soldiers participating in an afternoon Jewish prayer service in a mosque in northern Gaza. Why would Dr. Sabo Amos delete his own post?
In the past 24 hours, the IDF killed more than 50 Palestinians in Gaza, bringing the total to 53,272 dead and 120,673 wounded or maimed since 7 Oct 2023. The UN reports that two million Gazans are on the brink of starvation. 300 UN staff have been killed during the Nakba. Adjusting for inflation, Israel received $225.2 billion of American taxpayer funds between 1951 and 2022. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) recently heard testimony from member states that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. An international arrest warrant for war crimes issued by the ICC remains active for Benjamin Netanyahu. An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of a law.
Get ready for the AIPAC talking points: "This is a war;" "They should have voted for Kamala Harris;" "the leopards are eating their faces;" "They're all terrorists." Blah-blah-blah. No matter which American political party is in power, the Palestinian people have little to no friends in the US government.
The Palestinian people will go the way of the dodo.
