    The honest to god reason? Israel is perfectly willing to go all the way up to attacking other nations in this battle, and the other countries know it. NONE of them know whether the states would fuck around in their soil if israel were to start something, so they’re all leery of being the first one to find out.

        I think they don’t really care about their citizens doing any aid. Or, basically, they care so little they’re not willing to put their necks out first.

        I think (well, hope) we’re seeing a slow gathering of momentum as different countries make various small shows of support. If a dozen countries decided to send military escorts, and defended the aid all the way to its delivery into the people’s hands, it would work… but right now, none of them are willing to step up and say that they’ll do it by themselves. We’ll see a bunch say they recognize palestine, then diplomatic attempts to get aid in, then rabble rousing about aid needing to be delivered… and in each step it’ll be one followed by a few others before a larger amount all follow along. It’ll take far too long, but I would say in another year and a half that there would be military escorts, as long as trump doesn’t (threaten to) kickoff world war three.

          They are just stalling. Slowly changing their message so when it’s over, and the true horror of this holocaust is displayed to the world. They’ll say they’ll always supported Palestine and they did all they could have done.

          If you’ve seen shin godzilla. It’s exactly like that

        It’s a fucking rogue state attacking civilians on international waters, how the fuck are European nations ok with high sea piracy when they kill civilians, but when it’s Yemen attacking cargo ships then piracy is wrong?

    It’s just thoughts and prayers, comrade. None of them really mean anything by it. It’s platitudes.

      Not long ago they were defending the genocide. They don’t get to wash their hands by symbolically saying the word “Palestine” and do absolutely nothing

          youd be dead a few moments after you shot the first one down. then you become a “hostile”

          theres nowhere to hide when they know your intended destination and have access to bleeding age missile tech capable of targetting a fart from across the globe, let alone a cargo ship floating slowly across the ocean towards them.
