Israeli air strikes pummelled the besieged Gaza Strip on Wednesday, killing at least 33 Palestinians, including 20 women and children, less than 48 hours after the UN Security Council adopted US President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan for the enclave.

Israeli fighter jets bombed tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, as well as homes in Gaza City, with more than 70 people reported wounded.

Shelling and air strikes were also reported on Thursday morning, with most of the casualties reported in Khan Younis, local media reported.

The Palestinian group Hamas condemned the latest “massacre” and described it as “a dangerous escalation through which [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu seeks to resume the genocide.”

      Israel will be paying for this for generations. They have renewed the generational trauma that fuels anti Israel terrorism, and squandered the historical good will they had managed to hold onto up until this point.

      Zionists, however, will be reaping the rewards of this for decades. That anti Israel terrorism fuels their push for expansion, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. The loss of good will forces Israel to realign it’s geopolitics away from the liberal nations who push back against ethninationalism, and into illeberal nations with whom Zionism is much more idea logically aligned.
