International law has gone out the door. In the past ten months, over 45,000 people have been murdered by the Israeli state, including 15,000 children. It is hard to believe. What we see daily on our news screens is almost impossible to comprehend. This is akin to what the Nazis were doing in occupied Europe. Joe Biden was welcomed with open arms in this country, in some ways embarrassingly. His hands are dripping with blood because 70% of all arms that go to the State of Israel come from the United States, 25% comes from Germany and the rest is from elsewhere. The bombs raining down on children have nothing to do with this conflict, are being made in the USA and are killing innocent people. America is called the land of the free and yet it stands for the out-and-out destruction of the people of Palestine. How can this Government make a stand against what is happening in Gaza?
