Sad news, good reporting. It brings to the surface the relevance of the petition to stop aiding the state of Israel (state) with weapons unless they get ahold of their wrongdoings. Call me naive... but I believe in the polls that showed several times that more than half of the population on either side, just wants a diplomatic solution to find some proper frontiers between countries. But 'the west' never recognized Palestine. Even waiving a flag is treated as if 'blindly supporting Hamas/ terrorism'...

Oh, and there are middle grounds between giving drones with bombs, or nothing. I am not military expert, but shields, strategic defense, intel, food, fuel, etc. are all ways to keep giving support (if that's what Imperialism needs to keep ongoing).
The [absurd] asymmetry is in giving the most powerful weapons to one side, and food plus health supplies to the other. Specially since the other side doesn't even gets ahold of most of that material. That's why there's a humanitarian crisis. The Nakba is perpetrated even through famine... it's pretty sad that we can't call that genocidal without getting hit by an angry mob of fanatics.
Is this like rain on your wedding day?
It's a ceasefire when your kids died in an air-raid.
It's the bowl of rice that's a day too late.
It's like 10000 bombs when all you need is to stay alive.
It's like getting to the safe zone, then seeing the missiles arrive.
It's like 2000 aid trucks blocked, and then flying in a plane
If my kids died in an air raid I'd want there to be a ceasefire so no more kids would die. I don't think ceasefires are ironic.
