The Nazis told the Jews the gas chambers were showers so they would cooperate in their own massacre. Now the Zionist ‘safe areas’ are in fact kill zones for the same reason. Biden, Sunak and von der Leyen must join Netanyahu and Gallant in The Hague.

A vital context for today’s massacre in Rafah is that it is within the so-called “safe area” that was designated by Israel itself. So, Israel forced people to be displaced from one area in Rafah to another, then slaughtered them in what is the so-called “safe area.”
