43. Americans are not supporting terrorism

Sat Nov 25, 2023, 02:10 AM

Nov 2023

They are objecting to the horrific slaughter of innocent children & women. In no other recent conflict have 6000 and more children been killed. Another two thousand are probably still under the rubble and thousands of children have severe burns, missing limbs, dead siblings, dead parents, no food, no electricity, no water, etc. People were horrified that Russia brought thousands of Ukrainian children to Russia - but have no problem with thousands of dead and injured Palestinian kids.

Well, American kids are now seeing daily on social media - babies with their insides hanging out, dead kids with only half a body, badly burned kids, day after day on their phones and they are on TicToc sobbing. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRvu3AUB/

It was just reported the average age of these innocents is 2 to 5. So when did killing millions of toddlers not be a war crime. The world is turning against Israel & America as the unbelievable horrors of Palestine deaths increase daily.
