    So, why don’t we wait a couple of weeks and see if it is a distraction, or not? The US is currently air dropping and attempting to truck food in but it is not enough, hence the pier. Don’t think for one minute Putin’s trolls aren’t trying to capitalize on this.

      Are you accusing Doctors without borders of being Putin’s trolls ? Please read the article, the implication of the US in this conflict is total, and it is abnormal that we can’t criticize it without being accused of working for the Kremlin.

      Maybe the US dual party system has made people think that you’re either for Biden or Putin, but I assure you it’s perfectly normal to endorse neither of them. The fact that I’m anti-Putin does not mean I can’t criticize the US position, especially when internationally recognized experts (like doctors without borders, Amnesty international, UN,…) criticize it

        I don’t think anyone is saying criticism/scepticism is bad in any way. I also don’t think most are just blindly taking what a politician/government says as fact.

        I take these actions with a grain of salt just like most and assume nothing Biden or the government does is altruistic. I also have a hard time believing it’s all of nefarious intentions.

      Uh… People are dying now. Now it’s infants and children, soon it’ll be more children (the infants will’ve all died) and old people, then the adults will be next. And we’re talking actual starvation; people have been dying of malnutrition-induced illness for some time now. By the time those “couple of weeks” pass half of Gaza will be dead.
