Biden put pressure on Israel several times and achieved temporary ceasefires and more humanitarian aid. Rafah would have been stormed months earlier without US intervention.

This type of person doesn’t give a fuck about actual Palestinians. It’s just a way to make themselves seem virtuos and ideologically pure.

Genocide Joe has been an established term for months.

True, anything vaguely pro Israel gets deleted and banned.

Conservatives don’t want women to sleep around and have casual sex. So they make abortion illegal. In protest women stop having sex. Conservatives get exactly the outcome they wanted.

Most of the plastic in our oceans comes from land-based sources: by weight, 70% to 80% is plastic that is transported from land to the sea via rivers or coastlines

Most of the world’s largest emitting rivers are in Asia, with some also in East Africa and the Caribbean

Seven of the top ten rivers are in the Philippines. Two are in India, and one in Malaysia. The Pasig River in the Philippines alone accounts for 6.4% of global river plastics

Rich countries tend to have better functioning waste collection and disposal services.

A lot of ocean trash comes by river from poor countries.

Israeli settler terrorism is a crime according to Israeli law. It should be prosecuted accordingly.

Hamas is also in the West Bank, but they’re weaker there. There are plenty of other armed groups there as well and they have been active recently.

We don’t live in a Marvel-comic world of good versus bad. This is a terrorist organisation keeping a country hostage

So much we agree on.

versus a de facto autocrat

Just to go off the rails right after.
