Israeli ground forces are getting closer to “the complete evacuation” of northern Gaza and residents will not be allowed to return home, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has said, in what appears to be the first official acknowledgment from Israel it is systematically removing Palestinians from the area.

In a media briefing on Tuesday night, the IDF Brig Gen Itzik Cohen told Israeli reporters that since troops had been forced to enter some areas twice, such as Jabaliya camp, “there is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes”.

International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon.

I've got a crazy idea that probably won't work, but who knows:

Let's start making tons of memes of Bibi making Trump his little bitch. Make fake quotes that make the rounds of Bibi calling Trump a useful idiot, or easier to control than Biden. Try to get Trump to see doing whatever Israel wants as being weak, and make him get into a huge row with Netanyahu.

Israel isn't Russia, and I don't think Bibi has Trump by the short hairs like Putin does.

[–] anachronist@midwest.social 6 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

Bibi has way more on Trump than Putin does. Epstein was mossad.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

Nice idea, but I wager Putin is very happy Israel is taking the spotlight away from Ukraine.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Ooooh like the Winnie the Pooh shit that really got in that guy's head. I'm into it.

[–] grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world 56 points 1 day ago

Surprise surprise. Remember when this bullshit first kicked off and they were like "Oh yeah, we'll totally let them back in once the fighting stops"? Yeah, that was never the plan.

"International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon."

"Bibi laughed and said: get fucked loser. The strong do what they will and the meek suffer what they must. Who's going to stop me? Biden? Trump? The rest of the world that isn't doing shit but finger wagging? HA! We won, cry more snowflakes. He then punched a child in the face and continued laughing."

"Biden has remarked on the subject saying: Hurnmenlem.. whaaa? We beat medicare."

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

I was with you until the end.

If you're going to satirize Biden, you have to do more than just pull direct quotes from him.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 2 points 20 hours ago

Like this one?

"If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump then you ain’t black,” Mr. Biden said.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 5 points 1 day ago

Yeah that one's on me, it's really hard to satirize someone that's already a joke. :P

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can I hire you to write my sarcasm for me? Pay's in thoughts and prayers.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 9 points 1 day ago

Sure! I mainly accept laughs though, thoughts and prayers are worthless where I'm from. :P

[–] marine_mustang@sh.itjust.works 61 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yep, they see the writing on the wall. I wonder if they’ll wait until after inauguration to start allowing Israeli settlers to build towns and beachfront property, or just do it now?

[–] Sundial@lemm.ee 51 points 1 day ago (8 children)

Probably now. It's not Iike Biden did anything to stop them either.

You know, now that Biden has lost the election and no longer needs the support of AIPAC, there's no reason for him to continue to allow Netanyahu to do this.

Biden could stop this all with a phone call. He could tell the US ambassador to the UN to stop vetoing Security Council resolutions about Israel.

But he won't. Because it's not about electability. The truth is that Biden supports what is happening in Gaza. He thinks the primitive barbaric Gazans are getting what they deserve for standing up to the noble white people who are trying to civilize them.

You know what that's called? It's called being a white supremacist.

Biden is a genocidal white supremacist, and I wish the Democrats would fucking admit it, but they won't.

WHAT'S HIS EXCUSE NOW, DEMOCRATS? WHAT'S HIS EXCUSE NOW?

Genocide apologists, all of them. Scratch a liberal, find a white supremacist.

[–] anachronist@midwest.social 4 points 23 hours ago

There was a great book on Biden called "Yesterdays Man". Biden's political career began as a racist (anti-bussing) and tough on crime. Other than that he was a typical democrat for his era.

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Trump already won, no need to keep making fake arguments against democrats

Now Palestinians will continue to suffer, but Ukrainians and Americans too! Good job

[–] HomerianSymphony@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Trump already won, no need to keep making excuse for democrats.

Now Palestinians will continue to suffer

And who's fault is that?

[–] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The idiots who choose not to vote based on Gaza.

[–] HomerianSymphony@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

No, it's Biden's fault. Why are you trying to deflect blame away?

Just admit that you don't care about Gazans.

[–] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I care a lot about palestinians. Which is why Harris should have won. With her you have a chance to get improvement. With Trump things get worse.

But in the end if the choice is between fascism and non fascism and you pick neither you are responsible for the fascism

[–] HomerianSymphony@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So why are you defending Biden?

[–] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Where did I do that?

I said Biden is not a fascist which he clearly isnt. He does support the Israelian genocide by sending weapons and that is wrong and in every other election would be justified to punish by not voting.

Here it was the democracy on the line. You will now thanks to your actions never again have the chance to elect someone who will protect Palestine. You instead get Trump who will support Israel even more and probably have more settlements named after him.

[–] HomerianSymphony@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're explaining why you voted for Harris.

I'm asking why you deny that Biden is a genocidal white supremacist.

[–] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 1 day ago

I didnt vote you idiot. I cant vote in american elections. Biden is not a genocidal white supremacist because he is neither committing a genocide nor for the subjugation of people of colour. Words have meanings.

Biden is sending weapons to a genocidal maniac while telling him to stop the genocide. Which is stupid and a contradiction.

With the other side doing the exact same it is not an excuse to handle the reigns to fascists

To be fair, it's hard to return to your demolished home when you and your family have been exterminated.

[–] N0body@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 1 day ago

Trump Tower Gaza

[–] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

dont worry, im sure theyve designated some... reservations.. where they can build a casino or something

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Gaza was the reservation. I'll be very surprised if Israel doesn't kill them all.

[–] ApexHunter@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They won't kill them. They'll let them die of "natural" causes (disease+starvation).

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 1 points 23 hours ago

By blocking any kind is aid to then. In other words, killing them.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Look maybe they'll go the Canadian way of reeducation and integration instead. That works super well I'm told. I'm also told it definitely doesn't count as genocide so they'll be all clear. Great plan.

/s in case that's not terribly obvious
