My Opinions on a War that Needs to be Stopped - Solo Podcast - Gaza War 10
On October 7, 2023 Hamas attacked and killed around 1,400 Israeli people in one of the most horrific terrorist attacks in modern history. This has lead to a bombardment of missiles on the Palestinian people in Gaza as a retaliation for this attack. Thousands of innocent Palestinian people have died as a result and the continuation of human rights violations and war crimes continue to mount day by day.
Somehow, we seem to not be able to speak out about this as the corporate media and our government draw cover for the atrocities that are being committed by the Israeli government. Let me be perfectly clear, this is not an inditement of the Israeli or Jewish people, it is on the Israeli government and their heavy handed approach to fighting Hamas.
