No, its a global pandemic. Even in the countries you and me live in. Nothing and nobody can be trusted anymore.

Unfortunately very true. Added to my stack of pre 1933 two weeks in a row due to the way I'm feeling about how things are probably "really" going.

Israel's military says it has mounted more limited raids into Gaza to attack Hamas and find information about hostages being held.

Israeli bombing of Gaza continues, with Hamas officials saying dozens of people were killed overnight.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees says the situation in southern Gaza is so bad that some civilians are returning north after being told to flee south by Israel.

More than 1,400 Israelis were killed when Hamas attacked communities near Gaza, shooting civilians dead in their homes, in the streets and at a music festival.

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry says more than 4,600 people have been killed since Israel began bombing the territory in response, flattening entire neighbourhoods.

On Sunday, Hamas said it had destroyed an Israeli tank in southern Gaza; the IDF said one solder was killed and two injured by an anti-tank missile.

So, Hamas has anti-tank missiles?, aaah, I wondered where most of the Foreign Aid money was going to, those Palestinian civilians knew what they were voting for when they elected Hamas, I have no sympathy for them as it's their own bleeding fault.

All aid goes directly to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) the aid is not given to 'Gaza' nor Hamas UNRWA has stringent policies and procedures in place regarding neutrality and to prevent UNRWA funds and programs from benefiting terrorists. Additional oversight, including monitoring visits by State Department staff to UNRWA facilities, is reported annually to Congress.

Guess they get the weapons from Iran either by paying on delivery or they have some kind of lend & lease deal.

The US alone under Biden has given the UNRWA about a billion of our tax dollars for aid to the Palestinians and reports "UNRWA has faced intense scrutiny in recent years from critics who say the group has not done enough to prevent aid from reaching the hands of Hamas terrorists. UNRWA locations have reportedly housed Hamas activities and spread Hamas propaganda in schools." , but if you add all world aid it no doubts benefits Hamas who supposed to be running Gaza when all they do is plan war and terror on Israel and American interest. Maybe if the world didn't provide them so much aid the people would turn on Hamas and that would be the best answer. As usual, the US seems to fund all sides in war.
