Gaza Monday. Haaretz: Netanyahu is “planning to annex parts of the Gaza Strip, with the backing of the Trump administration”

On Monday in Gaza the IDF stepped up the killing.The latest AP report, archive.is/sTfcA updated about 11 PM Gaza time, says “killed at least 78 Palestinians” including “dozens” seeking food. Contrary to Israeli assertions yesterday a
U.N. official said nothing on the ground has changed and no alternative routes were allowed.”
Various US MSM outlets such as The Los Angeles Times carriedhttps://archive.is/FlEoI different versions of the AP report.
The last Aljazeera update archive.is/7uOBJ, at 12-30 AM Gaza time Tuesday said
“At least 92 people have been killed across Gaza by Israeli fire…,medical sources say.
Among the dead, 41 were aid seekers.”
NPR reports archive.is/DMt6K that President Trump has split from the Israeli line on the famine
Trump said “Israel has a lot of responsibility” for the limited food aid in Gaza, and said he wanted Netanyahu to “make sure they get the food.”
Less encouragingly, Haaretz reports archive.is/TAYlU Netanyahu is
“planning to annex parts of the Gaza Strip, with the backing of the Trump administration”
Meantime, the US Democratic Establishment seems to be responding to its Left. The Guardian reports archive.is/LNhEQ
“In letter, 21 senators say funding to GHF resulted in killings of more than 700 civilians seeking food and violated the law… independent senator Angus King from Maine who caucuses with Democrats, “I am through supporting the actions of the current Israeli government and will advocate – and vote – for an end to any United States support whatsoever”

From KM: Just in time to change the subject from the Gaza genocide, NPR has a long segment on a life-long friendship between an Iraqi Jew and an Iraqi Muslim, as told by the Jewish daughter. She emphasizes the diversity of her neighborhood and that the Jews got along with everyone until the 1967 war. Then it’s a tale of persecution… Jews as victims.
