Netanyahu says that he will not allow “international dictates regarding a permanent settlement with the Palestinians.” But he sure as shit will keep accepting that international funding to keep up with his genocidal campaign. When the fuck will Biden finally come to his senses and stop all fucking funding for this disgraceful asshat.
When I hear reports of “estimated street value” I imagine the police department putting the drugs up for sale on Craigslist and waits for offers. “£500M OBO”.
if one shipment has 6 tons of coke in it the manufacturing and smuggling apparatus has to be huge. that’s half a billion dollars on one roll of the dice. how many multi-ton shipments got through? at what point do we admit that drug prohibition has never prevented anyone who wanted drugs from getting them and just give up?
Here’s a crazy idea, but hear me out: what if the government produced the cocaine and taxed it, taking billions of dollars away from criminals and creating millions in new tax revenue. People are gonna do coke no matter who makes it.
I doubt, it their entire party coincidentally picks whatever portion of the Bible is convenient for them that day and pack it up for their moronic base to rally behind.
These people believed Russia was the devil a few years ago and suddenly they don’t care about Ukraine anymore.
Literally yes. Israel's Apartheid is inherently unsustainable and has been surviving using international support (mainly from the US and UK in recent years). Take away the biggest pillar and the whole thing will collapse. Maybe by, say, not vetoing UN resolutions or sending Israel aircraft carriers.
Support UN enforcement of the resulting resolution for a ceasefire
Stop funding Israel
Apply the same kind of sanctions the US applied to Ethiopia when it was committing similar human rights abuses in Tigray a couple of years ago.
Israel is currently killing people directly at a rate of about 3.6% of the population per year. That's not a situation that's bern going on for 75 years.
Support UN enforcement of the resulting resolution for a ceasefire
No country on earth is dump enough to send peacekeepers to that garbage fire. You might as well line up a thousand of your own men and march them one by one into a cattle grinding machine. It would be far far cheaper and more humane.
If the US withdrew support that would be it. If Israel lost the West's support I don't think it would attack the UN forces and Hamas has hardly any capabilities.
Wouldn't surprise me if the African Union was up for it if it had world support.
