Instead of praising Trump the media should be asking why it took him so long & why he waited for the US & Israel to become completely isolated from the world for him to lift a finger when there was an obvious genocide going on. Trump & Netanyahu will forever be war criminals.

And this is how powerful Democrats shaft their own supporters. And show how ridiculously compromised they are.

The first Swiss journalist to reach Gaza under the army of genocide lost his temper at the horror he witnessed, saying: “Humanity was destroyed here.”

We renew our call on international media and investigators to pressure the genocidal state to allow immediate access to Gaza.
