    Other Latin American countries, such as Mexico and Brazil, have also called for a ceasefire.

    “What we have now is the insanity of Israel’s prime minister, who wants to wipe out the Gaza Strip,” said Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Friday.

    Meanwhile… Israel’s official response…

    “the Bolivian government is aligning itself with the Hamas terrorist organization,” Israel’s Foreign Ministry said.

        Could you give some context for why it’s a ridiculous statement? Or its ridiculous onky because of Bolivia’s comment?

          Honestly it was just the latter; idk about Bolivia’s politics at all, but if Israel is saying anyone who condemns their actions is pro-Hamas then I say it’s ridiculous unless they have actual proof that shows they’re actively supporting them
