Rhodes: “#Israel doesn’t want to end the war … if they were willing to end the war, they would get the hostages out. The idea that they need to continue to fight the war against #Hamas in Gaza - I’m sorry, there’s no security need to do it. You’re just talking about an already traumatised people, including a lot of injured people, who are being bombed in tents with no food and medicine.”

Vietor: “What a total fucking disgrace the Biden administration’s policy on Gaza was… Loyalty to #Netanyahu blinded him to the carnage, the total immorality of the policy, and US complicity in that policy.”
