YOU people in the USA/Western world are allowing this to happen.

WHO is next?

When the USA/UK comes to take out your Arab friends or any people with brown skin........what are you going to do?

The “USA” u speak of no longer exists. It’s over. We are heading over the cliff and much of the population is unaware consumed with ignorant pride. It’s tragic.

Thank you for sharing this. I mean I feel distressed just hearing this and tears well up, but it needs to be heard! I am lucky to not have to experience such horrendous things. All the way from NZ all we can do is keep supporting Palestinians, keep pressure on our Govt to speak out, and continue with BDS action.

The Gaza should never be turned over to Trump or Musk so they can build their own little empire there with their own money to profit off the death of so many. That should be outlawed. The women and children need the help But not this way and there would be no guarantee on anything they come up with. United States should not fund such a take over. It’s one thing to put an American base there, another to put a remembrance ‘death’ playground for the rich!

The perpetrators of this evil and everyone who supports it will be remembered as the worst of humanity forever.

Thank you for the eye witness reporting of the harrowing annihilation in Gaza. The long term sequelle have been playing on my mind - not only "just" the acute phase violence wounds from, bullets, ordinance, burns, crushing in collapsed buildings, starvation, the lack of preventative health, the contaminated water and lack of sanitary sewerage solutions. So thank you for also addressing the longer term sequellae around the heavy metal poisoning, the effect inhalation of demolition dust, the likely permanent water table contamination, the topsoil compaction rendering it much more challenging to grow agricultural products (with whatever contamination levels). All to render life as close to unlivable as possible for the people there. The irony of politicians discussing en masse ethnic cleansing versus an only guardian aunt not being allowed her breastfeeding infant to accompany medical evacuee minors is transparent in it's cruelty.

Thank you to the doctors for your service and speaking out, thank you to Drop Site news for being on point leading the discussion. Thank you from a veterinarian in NZ. You make a difference. It is year of the snake - hopefully we can put our staffs together - my wooden one, alongside your metal rods of aesclepius for a conjoined snake of healing to entwine both in solidarity and fortitude.

Never in my life, being the descendant of African and native american colonization, could you have made me believe, I'd be watching the ZIO/AMERICA PROJECT (for lack of a better name), attempt to do just that. The anguish I have experienced this last year watching this evil continue unrelentingly, means nothing compared to the what the Palestinians have endured! But I can assure you, I am not the only one......waiting patiently for a higher power to do what we are powerless to do. Colonizers have never stop colonizing. NEVER!!

This is no surprise. Trump and his family have been salivating over this property for years. J. Kushner talked about it some time ago. They probably have plans already drawn up.

I am ashamed that we have been part of this genocide. ..

Hi Gail. You're absolutely right. Plans have been drawn up by Netanyahu. This report is May 2024 but I bet has been "in the wind" for years before that. J Kushner is mentioned. Perhaps explains why IDF Gallant left. Reading it made me feel sick and mistrust more than ever what Trump/Netanyahu say. I'm surprised hearing people say Trump doesn't have a PLAN for Gaza. Well ...! More investigation is needed.

There is no moral high ground for the US.

The new Trump/Netanyahu administration is here.

This is hard to listen to, but necessary. A racist intolerant mindset towards the Middle East has been "manufactured" in the West through media captive to corporate interests like oil and finance, and unfortunately Zionist and far right Christian apocalyptic beliefs that weave conquering Palestine into their propaganda. I believe most people think that the Israel/US war machine is murderiusly criminal. But too many just switch off in despair ... so visible street protests and informed vocal activists need to be much more common. Over 100 years of pro Zionist propaganda hiding western imperialism is hard to fight. Thank you and respect to medics and journalists, and the UN, for fighting this insanity.

"Lancet" medical journal in Britain, predicted that there are probably over 100,000 dead in Gaza. They figure, once the rubble is removed, they'll find many bodies.

Palestinians, do not leave. You’ll never be allowed to return. Fight fight against the dying light. The remaining humanity on this planet is with you.

Focus on Gaza Riviera 💰! Not Gazans. Not humans.

Apparently neither are you.

There is an option to return the Golan heights and Nabulis (sp?) to Palestein for settlements and living space, schools in temp buildings and clinics for Palestinians and return of homes and homesteads taken between establishment of Israel and today, including recent appropriations of Palestinian homes in Jerusalem. The return of Palestinians from abroad. adding funding, manpower and able adults to rebuild in Gaza ( perhaps starting with hospitals and schools and social support newtworks) for people who have lost all family or children without adult support, can address their needs through Children's Villages ( see OXFAM Children Villages) to employ adults and care for them in family type units they can connect with for a lifetime. The world must support and reinvest in the establishment of healthy stettlements on currently Isreli occupied lands. The illegal settlements are already built and now occupied by Israel citizens who must return to Israel national borders to leave these settlements for Palestinians. This is not an impossible situation to solve but will require many aspects set right.

Where is this 'buffer zone?' USA?

Obviously this 'buffer zone' is kept secret..Why?

EVERY time I hear this 'orange mouth lips move' get seriously worried.

IN the event of Palestinian's being moved from their 'homeland' I wonder what is going through the American mind.

Do you immigrants in the USA feel safe?

There is none. The narrative is there to disguise the true intent of genocide.

The US did this to Native Americans. It's known as "The Trail of Tears". What will this illegal eviction be known as?
