Could Donald Trump be held accountable for aiding and abetting #genocide in #Gaza?

 

 Amid warnings of "catastrophic" levels of starvation in Gaza - the UK, France and Germany have issued a joint statement calling for an end to the war and urging Israel to "immediately lift the restrictions on the flow of aid". 

 During a speech on the House floor on Monday (22 July 2025), Rep. Al Green (D-TX) accused President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with genocide in Gaza.

    It is with great regret at 89 today I must stop publishing but with the current political scene in the world today with 2 "wannabe" dictators #Trump #netanyahu & the dictator #putin and the atrocities (war crimes) happening in both the #ukraine #Israel / #Gaza  and elsewhere in the world this will be my last post.

    Just publishing this news is depressing but you can follow news here

    When I was in Korea in 1955 I was in the United Nation forces stationed opposite Gloucester Hill with the British Royal Signals (video of attack 4 years earlier)

    Why are they not keeping the peace in Ukraine

    I need to return to enjoying my music for which I am told I have a good ear for noticing music picking the Rolling Stones; Eric Clapton´s first records for being famous + many more and Rihanna´s first CD c2007/2008 when I was diagnosed with cancer. About that time a lady from UA dreams Donetsk (UA Dreams) wrote to me and we corresponded for about 18 months before she moved to Germany. I warned her then about the Russians when they invaded Georgia

    Too much hot air throughout the world and not enough action

    United Nations Forces, comprised of United Kingdom, Belgium, Luxembourg, Philippines and South Korea troops in the vicinity of the Imjin River fell under direct attack when the Chinese Spring Offensive commenced on 22 April 1951.
    The 29th British Independent Infantry Brigade Group, commanded by Brigadier Tom Brody, was under the most severe attack and was eventually surrounded by the enemy. An attempt to reinforce them failed due to harsh terrain and overwhelming enemy power.
    The 1st Battalion, Gloucestershire Regiment, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel James Carne, bravely held out for more than three days against more than 30,000 Chinese troops. Of the 700 Gloucesters, only 40 men reached safety, the rest were captured or killed by the Chinese. Lt. Col. Carne was held at a Chinese POW Camp in North Korea till after the armistice agreement was signed. He spent 19 months in solitary confinement, and many of his men died due to harsh treatment at the camp.
    The British 29th Brigade's brave stand provided UN Forces enough time to re-group and block the Chinese advance onto Seoul, but not without sacrifice, they suffered 1,091 casualties, including 622 of Glosters. The US lost 1,500 men either killed or missing in action, the South Koreans 8,000 and the other UN forces approximately 1,000 men. Chinese casualties were estimated at 70,000.

    #Israel - Alex Gibney on "The Bibi Files," Netanyahu's Corruption Case & How Endless War Keeps Him in Power: Democracy Now

    17 December 2024

    As the official death toll in Gaza tops 45,000 and Israel's wars throughout the Middle East continue, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in court for a long-awaited corruption trial, making him the country's first sitting leader to face criminal charges.

    He is charged with fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes in three separate cases. For more on this extraordinary case, we speak with acclaimed filmmaker Alex Gibney, whose latest documentary The Bibi Files features leaked behind-the-scenes footage of police interrogations of Netanyahu, his wife and those accused of bribing him.

    The film has been banned in Israel, and Netanyahu even tried unsuccessfully to stop it from screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, but Gibney says it is being widely shared inside Israel through unofficial channels.

    "Strictly speaking, this is a film about corruption," Gibney tells Democracy Now! "It starts with petty corruption — being bribed with gifts and cigars, champagne, jewelry — but then the ultimate corruption is how he's tried to elude a reckoning for his misdeeds, and in so doing, he wraps himself in the mantle of prime minister and then wages endless war."
