'Tell me another army in the world that acts in a more moral fashion than the army of Israel?'
- Netanyahu 🇮🇱🤡

Sickening reality of the IDF

#IsraeliTerrorists

Netanyahu has announced that Israel will allocate $19 billion to convert the Gaza Strip into settlements. He mentioned discussing these plans with Germany and UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

The plan was always to take the remaining land in Palestine 💔

The Forgotten War

📌15,550 + innocent lives lost 

📌18 million people experiencing starvation

📌25 million in need of humanitarian aid

📌9.6 million people internally displaced

With no end in sight.
