Israel is recruiting African refugees for "life-threatening" operations in Gaza in exchange for settled status in the country, sources have revealed. There are approximately 30,000 African asylum seekers in Israel. They have faced growing pressure from anti-immigrant politicians, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who regularly refers to them as "infiltrators".

One man interviewed by Haaretz, who ultimately chose not to enlist, recounted being approached by a security official to join the war effort. The official explained that after a two-week training period, he would be deployed alongside other asylum seekers.

Haaretz noted that the "manner in which the Israeli army deploys the asylum seekers is barred from publication" due to restrictions imposed by the Israeli military censor.

Consider this: climate change is being accelerated at a time when we are overdue to reduce it and what we are getting out of it is plagiarism and wrong answers.

It is somewhat reassuring that no matter the political system, people everywhere are lead by superstitious charlatans

The US is propping up a puppet regime, and for a discount. 1.3 billion is nothing compared to what Egypt offers in return.

One could argue that the US indirectly drove Europe to the far right.

Bully the world > some radicals with limited means decide to fight back in unorthodox ways > declare war on the radicals you nurtured > millions flee the wars you start and go to Europe > Europeans lose their mind and become increasingly racist and xenophobic

A bolt-from-the-blue attack by Hamas produced the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust.

I hate Bloomberg and whoever writes for it. Who gives a fuck about some criminal settlers who got killed? Palestine is for Palestinians and they have every right to resist foreign invaders even if they were Jewish invaders. Also no mention of Israel’s genocidal response. Racist swines.

Still an entertaining read given where it is from.

They are nominally attacking out of sympathy for the Palestinian people

They said they will stop if the genocide stops. Stop the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza and find out. It should be very easy to call their bluff.

Iran has provided weapons and the know-how needed to manufacture them.

No. Yemen’s missile program started decades ago with the help of the USSR.

Since October 2023, they have allowed most of China’s shipping to pass without harm.

Not just the Chinese. The embargo is on US, UK, Israeli ships and any ship heading to Israeli ports in Occupied Palestine

Beijing and Moscow reap geopolitical rewards when America is burdened by Middle Eastern conflicts, so both are willing to let this crisis fester, or even make it worse.

Are you sure it isn’t Washington DC by allowing the genocide to continue?

Russia’s war in Ukraine is simultaneously stressing another bedrock principle, the norm against forcible conquest.

Completely ignoring Israel doing the same to Palestinians since at least 1967.

Israel is a plight on humanity

I didn’t know Bloomberg was a Yemeni tribe name, but that would explain their pro-Yemen propaganda ;)
