  The real-time global threat assessment tool powered by AI that allows "actionable intelligence to keep you one step ahead of potential risks" currently lists Ma Barker's gang as a high-threat terrorist event. https://globalthreat.info/read/events:lzvpm79umypur2l1vh7v https://globalthreat.info/read/events:lzvpm79umypur2l1vh7v

    Ha! How did you even find that?

  The article explains that the big problem is the blockade and logistics and starvation, not the direct military events.

    I would imagine that being carpet bombed is not helping. The UNOCHA estimate is 23k dead. That's about 4% of the population. Asa a percentage that's higher that WWII in Europe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties#:~:text=World%20War%20II%20was%20the,the%20global%20population%20in%201940 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties#:~:tex....

      600,000 people in Gaza are at the edge of death due to starvation, according to the article.

        Yes, a total horror. Infrastructure destroyed, little to no shelter, no food, no water. An unspeakable abomination obscured only by by naked propaganda. I don't even know what to say anymore.

        People can bring up WW2 or whatever all they like, Israel will do what it wants. It is about sending a message to the world that if they are messed with they will starve and blow the enemy to bits. Adult or child. No obscuration USA will not place limits on human losses when it comes to backing up its ally. It is the cost of regional influence and maintaining a Jewish state in a region surrounded by potential enemies.
