AP: US military strikes another Houthi-controlled site in Yemen after Red Sea attacks
-It is the US that is escalating a war with more attacks on Yemen. The Houthis have not retaliated from the first attack on Yemen and yet the US is still bombing an impoverished nation that has nothing to do with the Houthi blockade. There has been no attempt at diplomacy between the US and the Houthis other than the US sending warnings over seas that they have no authority over. The US needs to stay in their own seas and stop bombing an innocent country over delayed shipping. These actions further prove the degree that the US wants to enter a war and they want war badly.
-It’s not just the US who is escalating things, but Israel. Israel now says that they will control the Philadelphi Corridor which breaks a peace agreement between Israel and Egypt. Israel wants to close down all entry points into Gaza and withhold all aid. This will starve even more innocent Palestinians.
Foreign Policy: In Sudan, Put Aid Before Talks
-This article brings up some very good points that leaders and aid groups must take to help the innocent Sudanese people who are suffering greatly: 1) stop funding or supplying arms to the RSF and SAF, 2) include Sudanese civilian groups in all discussions, 3) finance humanitarian plans. Give the money and supplies to civilian groups. Instead of doing nothing, which is what is happening, open discussions with Sudanese groups that are actively assisting those in need. 12,000 Sudanese have died and more are being killed through war and hunger. These discussions cannot be delayed.
Al Jazeera: UN says all peacekeepers will leave the DRC by the end of 2024
-What this article does not include are the sexual assaults from UN peacekeepers. It did state that the DRC has asked the UN to leave because they are ineffective at assisting the DRC’s in protecting civilians. That is true especially when women face sexual assault from UN peacekeepers. 8 UN peacekeepers detained in Congo over sexual abuse claims sources say
Reuters: Israel pushes ahead with Gaza offensive approaching 100 days of war
-Netanyahu has said he will not be stopped by The Hague or anyone. The only way to affect Israel and hold them accountable is to embargo and sanction Israel and its supporters. The IDF was supposedly pulling troops from Gaza but the violence has not deescalated at all. Now Netanyahu is claiming that he is above all laws and will continue with his violent massacre of Palestinians. What will stop him are sanctions and embargoes.
From the river to the sea, may the whole world be free.
