ISRAEL SAYS THE QUIET PART OUT LOUD - CEASEFIRE NOW

Every single day Israel's aggression expands beyond Gaza. First it was the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and then any Palestinian. Next, up was southern Lebanon. Now, we're seeing this "war" spill out further to Yemen, Syria, and to the heart of Lebanon in Beirut. Every single moment you choose to provide material support to Israel's reign of terror, we're closer and closer to truly catastrophic outcomes not just for the Middle East, but for the rest of the world. I fear WW3 has already been underway - now it's just a matter of bad it becomes. The assassination of Saleh al-Arouri via a fighter jet strike in Beirut marks a new chapter of Israel's attacks on Lebanon. While I have little faith in the UN Security Council considering how my country continues to undermine it's efforts to stop the genocide at every turn, I'm glad Lebanon filed a complaint. While Israeli officials deny responsibility, not only did the IDF take credit for it online via their official X account in Hebrew, even our own government attributes the attack to Israel. What I found more interesting, however, is that Al-Arouri was assassinated via a guided bombardment meant to minimize collateral damage. In the same interview denying Israel's responsibility, Mark Regev, an adviser to Netanyahu, states that "whoever did this did a surgical strike". As always, whether explicitly stating their intent to decimate Gaza, or via implication by the indiscriminate, "dumb" bombs used, Israel is capable of minimizing casualties, and chooses not to. As of 1/5, approximately 22,600 - 30,600 Palestinians have been murdered in Gaza by Israel since 10/7. Israel's actions are intended to further their genocidal ethnic cleansing campaign by the destruction of infrastructure, targeting of civilians, and other acts of heinous violence both in occupied Palestine and neighboring countries. Israel's representatives have said over and over they do not see anyone in Gaza as civilians - anyone or thing is a "legitimate target". This genocidal rhetoric now includes all Palestinians and is expanding in real time to the Yemeni and Lebanese. South Africa's recent filing to the ICJ to initiate proceedings of Israel's crimes of genocide more than documents how Israel is systematically destroying Palestinians, how their government officials admit to intentional targeting of all Palestinians, and more. They've been saying the quiet part out loud for a while now. This is the country you "unequivocally support". Stop the escalation of this horrific conflict before its too late. Call for a ceasefire right now.
