One can't help but feel sorry for Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis: the doomed Sunak ran away from their meeting so he was forced to shake hands with Gaza genocide supporter Sir Kid Starver instead. And he won't get his marbles back.

Let's hope this can lead to a lasting end to the violence from both sides. Too many innocents have lost their lives.
A few hours ago they bombed the UNRWA School in the Jabalia refugee camp and right now they're bombing the Indonesian hospital in Gaza. The genocide will continue until the last second before the "ceasefire" begins, it's a tradition in Israel.

Javier Milei 's mother, Alicia Luján Lucich, is the granddaughter of WW2 Croatian Fascist Dictator Ante Pavelic who escaped to Argentina in 1946, aided by the Catholic Church in Naples.
Milei is a firm supporter of Israel and its genocide of the Palestinians. The old cliche of the apple not falling far from the tree seems applicable in this case.

Yes, she's long dead unfortunately. However, for the far-right in Japan North Korea must remain an enemy forever, so she's not actually dead. You can read a summary of the whole miserable story here:

Not if you're a Washington neo-con hellbent on world domination, it isn't. Those people murdered 900,000 Iraqis to gain control of their oil, provoked a proxy war against Russia that has destroyed Ukraine and are now sponsoring Zionist crimes against humanity in Gaza to lay the foundations for war against Iran.
What are 10,000 dead children to such people? Absolutely nothing....

U.S. fails to win immediate support for pause in fighting
What utter filth from AP. The US is actually aiding the Zionist genocide by collecting an enormous range of communications and electronic intelligence from the brutal Gaza-Israel battlefield – and this data is being provided to the Israel Defence Forces.
"Two large Orion geosynchronous signals intelligence satellites, belonging to the US and operated from Pine Gap, are located 36,000 kms above the equator over the Indian Ocean. From there, they look down on the Middle East, Europe and Africa, and gather huge amounts of intelligence data to beam back to the Pine Gap base.
After collecting and analysing the communications and intelligence data for the USA’s National Security Agency (NSA), Pine Gap is providing it to the Israel Defence Forces, as it steps up its brutal assault on Palestinians in the Gaza enclave.
“Pine Gap facility is monitoring the Gaza Strip and surrounding areas with all its resources, and gathering intelligence assessed to be useful to Israel,” a former Pine Gap employee has told Declassified Australia."
https://declassifiedaus.org/2023/11/03/targeting-palestine/
The UK is also sending the Israeli military live feed of intercepted Palestinian resistance communications from its listening base on Mount Troodos in Cyprus ( known as RAF Troodos).
Both countries are actively participating in genocide.

Biden is lying. The IDF are lying. Netanyahu is lying - they are a pack of liars.
Ohad Hemo, Israeli TV's Channel 12 Palestinian Affairs reporter, admitted Israel is responsible for the bombing of the Baptist Hospital in Gaza resulting in hundreds of civilian casualties.
Whoever writes Biden's tweets changed the name of the Al Ahli Baptist Hospital to the Al Ahli Arab Hospital, to distract American voters attention from the IDF murdering hundreds at the only Gaza hospital run by Anglican Protestants.
The IDF attacked the Al Quds hospital in Gaza with JDAM bombs just 3 hours ago.
The US just vetoed a Brazilian resolution at the Security Council calling for a humanitarian pause to Israel's relentless bombing of 2 million Palestinians, half of whom are children, trapped in Gaza without water, gas and electricity.
Results of the vote: Yes: Brazil, France, Malta, Japan, Ghana, Gabon, Ecuador, China, Albania, UAE, Switzerland, Mozambique
Abstained: Russia, UK
No: USA
