The mass expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt has been an aim of Israeli governments since December 1948, when the army first tried and failed to cleanse this last remaining enclave along Palestine’s Mediterranean coast. It tried again during the 1950s and intensified its effort after the 1967 War, when Israel occupied both the Gaza Strip and the Sinai desert. Hamas’s attack on 7 October 2023 gave Israel another opportunity. Expulsion plans were trumpeted by Israeli politicians and media spokespeople. Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that he was actively seeking to transfer Palestinians out of Gaza. Israeli and some US officials started lobbying Egypt to accept large numbers of refugees. For eight months the Israeli army refrained from occupying the border area near Rafah, leaving the exit to Egypt open.
This exemplifies the circular logic of Zionist settler-colonialism: settlements are built to mark and protect the state’s border, but that makes them vulnerable to attack and so a buffer zone is established to protect them. Afterwards, this buffer zone is itself settled to mark and protect the newly expanded borders, at which point another buffer zone becomes necessary. In this manner vulnerability is produced and then mobilised in a feedback loop that the genocide scholar A. Dirk Moses has called ‘permanent security’.


Oh ffs already. America is one step away from imploding.


No worries. :)


Ah, I get it. Thanks for responding. :)


I was responding to Wudi.


Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation


Probably because most people wouldn’t know what that acronym stood for.


Got lots of proof to back that up?


Iirc that’s already started. All the growing zones have moved further north or south from where they used to be when I was a kid (back in the early 60’s).

I’d prefer they be built on Mars instead.


It’s the little things, like this news, that make my day better. :)


The current issues are a bit more complicated because now it’s not just a few people here and there. It’s dozens or hundreds who are actively invading animal’s space all at once just for the chance to prove they were there and get the clicks they’re addicted to.
Some other examples …

Seriously, wtf did tRump think would happen when he murdered Khamenei? Did he think Iran would just roll over and give up?? Ofc Iran’s military has taken over, just like military leadership has in many other instances where some dumbfuck foreign leader tries to manipulate world politics through assassination.
What a fucking idjit he is.


Seems a lot of the baleen whales are having issues with lack of food sources (krill, ocean-bottom mollusks, etc).
I wish we would fucking stop all the dumb shit we’re doing already.


Unfortunately is seems like Mark Carney has dropped his. :(


I locked down my FB account about 15 yrs ago. I didn’t delete it because I’ve lived all over the place and it’s sometimes the only way to keep in touch.
But recently I reconnected with some old and dear friends so tried to add them. What a fucking mess that was, and a fucking shit-show FB has become.


The IDF lying again … as usual.


What a whiny boy-child.
Without hope the people perish.
