Gallant, who has some tactical differences with Netanyahu on Gaza but fully supports and plays a central role in enacting the genocide, describes the siege in the West Bank as “mowing the lawn.”

“Presence,” “open-ended control,” “will not leave.” So many words Western media uses to avoid saying “occupy” or “occupation.” The sticking point for a ceasefire they keep referring to is the core of the problem, Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian land.

Wow, Pentagon's spokesperson Sabrina Singh, when pressed by reporter, crumbles after she claimed: "We know that there are tunnels under that corridor" Reporter: "The Egyptians deny the existence of these tunnels. Can you share more about what you know about these tunnels?"
