The white house won't even admit it's a genocide. There is no red line and never will be.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Here is the list in case anyone is interested:
- Bolivia
- Brazil
- Colombia
- Egypt
- Jordan
- Malaysia
- Namibia
- Pakistan
- South Africa
- Turkey
I think you might be missing a few. Eg Nicaragua, Maldives.
In terms of the West, Ireland, Spain, and Norway are probably close to openly calling it a genocide.

It's getting so bad that even white heads of state are considering calling it the genocide it is.
Yes, sooner or later it will be recognised by most.
I'm old enough to remember the years after the Cambodian Genocide when the US supported the genocidal Khmer Rouge being the representatives for Cambodia at the UN, locking out the actual government of Cambodia.
These travesties happen every so often.

Biden said there’s a red line of Rafah is invaded. So Israel does airstrikes in Rafah and says they don’t count as in invasion. Bigger airstrikes with dozens dead and charred victims. Biden says they don’t count. The red line becomes squiggles and dotted line and neither says the line was crossed.
Today Israel sent TANKS into Rafah. Still think this doesn’t count as in invasion?
"Netanyahu spits in Biden's face and rubs feces in his hair. White house is assessing if this crosses the line."
I'm mentally filing this under Not The Onion.
Biden is the guy democracy's fate rests on then we are screwed. Netanyahu continues to dog walk him and Biden can only smile and do nothing.
Doing nothing would be an improvement over selling weapons, going to bat for Netanyahu at the UN, and genocide denial.
EDIT: removed ambiguity.
Do you mean "anything"?
Israel did violate.
White house to check if biden even has any balls.
or ovaries or even a pulse at this point
Biden’s going to call Netanyahu and tell him that he is disappointed in him.
He would get hung up on.
Not enough dead babies. Aw shucks.
