Gee...
I wonder why starving victims of an ongoing genocide who gets a fraction of the aid they need to feed everyone is panicking...
I can't imagine the complete lack of empathy required to write a headline where you call those poor souls "looters".
Like, I get why the favor the wealthy, the largest shareholder of the Times is the world's second richest person.
But I don't know why they have such a vested interest in using loaded language to always make people view Palestinians negatively and ignore Israel has caused the vast majority of international incidents in the Middle East since England created it.
Same reason they apply the "looter" label to people surviving after a hurricane destroys an entire city.
List of countries that "England created," according to givesomefucks:
I'm also not sure what point you're trying to make but it's worth pointing out that "drawing borders" and "European colonization and ethnic cleansing / genocide" are very different degrees of fuckery and you're conflating both types here.
I have no idea what you're trying to say.
But it's sad to see someone act like this on a mod account. You're setting a horrible example for other users.
They appear to be a Zionist. Their username literally means "god is great" in Hebrew.
That contextualizes their motivation to post this in a whole other light if true...
"Look at these people (whose infrastructure we destroyed and who we have made desperate through starvation and inhumane treatment) acting so uncivilized (trying to get to the aid before we have a chance to destroy it)"
