And what will the US do to prevent it then? Cut funding? Cut military aid? Declare War on Terror?
What do you mean you won't permit it? You mean you will actually try to stop Israel from doing it? Will you stop giving Israel money?
Or are you just going to do nothing?
No she just means Israel will have to kill them all.
Israel: k we'll just kill them all then. Thanks for the money and weapons btw
Relocation wont make US any money. Conflict will
The Israel-Palestine conflict does not make money for the US, the country. It makes money for a minority of people who have significant shares in companies from the military industry, who are enriching themselves from the taxes of their fellow citizens to finance Israel's policies.
This might be the first time I’ve heard a demand imposed on Israel from the US during this recent escalation. Hopefully, the first of many.
i wonder if it was a coincidence it wasnt biden
They make Kamala say all the stuff that they fear might backfire. She was also put in charge of stopping illegal immigration, knowing they really didn't have any way to actually do it.
Yeah, it's a long way from sufficient, but this is huge progress from active support for genocide.
Call me when they stop actively supporting genocide. Empty words are empty.
Mere talk is not "imposing" anything.
The politcians in power in the US are just using talkie-talk to try to hold off potential problems with a significant portion of their natural voters' outright abhorring Genocide and thus being unwilling to vote them back into power in the upcoming elections due to their support for those activelly comitting one.
Talk is the cheapest way there is to project an impression one way whilst continuing to act in exactly the opposite way.
"Demand" from the otherwise completely powerless VP.
Seems legit
Kinda silly in my opinion. What exactly do they think the systematic destruction of Gaza is? People should live in the rubble?
They can't rebuild since those kinds of tools could be used for weapons according to Israel.
I see a lot of similarities between WWII Jewish ghettos and modern day Gaza. It looks like an aggregate oppressed becomes the oppressor syndrome, but I'm probably wrong.
Uh huh.
And yet she’s giving Israel bombs to destroy people’s homes. Literally forcibly relocating them. Never mind that 70% of Gazans were forcibly relocated from their land 75 years ago.
These statements are just cover for more Israeli murder. It’s designed to make people feel complacent.
Will there be any Palestinians left to relocate when this genocide is over?
That's why the "threat" means nothing.
Um.... They've already been pushed out of their homes and relocated. That was under the "circumstance" of Israel invading and killing them. I don't think the phrase "under no circumstances" applies here.
Until the money faucet turns off, Israel will keep doing their thing
How many billions of dollars are they sending to Israel's military so they can genocide the natives again?
Jews are the natives. Literally the Aramaic way of saying Jew means of the Levant region. You have no clue what you are talking about. Palestinians are refugees that no one wants. Not even their Islamic brethren in other countries. Israel worked to negotiate many peace deals and even had a work visa program. The apartheid-style sanctions were due to security constraints because the Palestinians kept blowing shit up. If people the next town over from you drive into your town an burned down your house randomly, you would eventually put up military checkpoints as well. Many of the radicalized Palestinians don’t appreciate Western culture and think that it’s an affront of their religion. They want women to have minimal rights. It blows me away that many left-leaning individuals want to help support their backwards culture of misogyny.
Jews are the natives
A war 1400 years ago does not justify colonizing and slaughtering natives right now. Surely you can see how fucked up that is?
By that logic, can African Americans or Chinese Americans return to their respective continents, occupy an entire country by displacing its current population, and claim it as their ancestral land? How delusional.
And since when is "the period of Judah" an accurate historical reference point?
Theodor Herzl, founder of Zionism, was just a racist colonizer, and saw it as bringing 'civilization' to 'barbarians' as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:
"We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence." Source [II]
That is exactly what's happening right now. All for European and US military and economic interests in the region; for their ruling class of capitalist corporations at least.
Israel is just a modern western colony committing genocide on natives. It's keeping the middle-east divided and preventing them from uniting against the Imperial core.
Gaza has been an open-air prison trapping the natives the whole time. And you're trying to deny their right to fight back against colonizers and settlers? They're literally openly colonizing the West Bank right now with their whole "Area C" garbage. It's disgusting.
want to help support their backwards culture of misogyny
Jesus christ, the US and Europe are the ones constantly keeping the Middle East at war to keep oil cheap and military profits high, and keeping them from making societal progress. And I'm saying that as an ex-Muslim. This is literally British colonialist era racist thinking of seeing 'the other side' as barbarians.
The PFLP, the second largest Palestinian liberation group after Fatah, calls for a secular Palestinian state where Jews, Muslims, Christians, etc. will live together in peace. Modern Fatah even accepts a two-state solution (and they have every right not to).
Only Hamas is mixing up Zionists with Jews, and that's entirely because of Israel and the Imperial core's constant oppression, displacement, and now genocide of the natives.
Palestinians are refugees that no one wants. Not even their Islamic brethren in other countries. Israel worked to negotiate many peace deals and even had a work visa program. The apartheid-style sanctions were due to security constraints because the Palestinians kept blowing shit up....Many of the radicalized Palestinians don’t appreciate Western culture and think that it’s an affront of their religion.

You sound like a child describing to their parent why one of their action toys was able to beat up one of their other action toys. You also seem to have very little ability to comprehend how you cannot make blanket generalizations about groups of millions of people, which coincidentally is the root of why the genocide of the Palestinian people is being allowed to happen.
Your story is missing quite a bit.
First of all, Jew refers to both a religion and ethnicity, but in this context (Israel) is almost exclusively ethnic.
Palestinians are Jews (the religion), Christians and Muslims, not exclusively Muslim. The PLO is an explicitly religiously tolerant group whose logo was a menorah, cross and crescent moon.
Hamas, the Muslim Palestinian extremist group, was primarily funded and supported by Israel to break PLO dominance of Palestinian politics, because fighting a religiously tolerant nationalist movement that had recently commited to non-violence was bad optics internationally.
The Palestinians were forced at gunpoint to abandon their homes and move to Gaza and the West Bank during the Nakba in 1948.
Nobody gives a fuck what the US says. Worthless empty lies and promises.
Except sometimes the threats are backed up if it's convenient enough. The US doesn't always intentionally lie, there's just not much continuity of policies across administrations, so even if one president does genuinely agree to something- they can't really make their successor follow it. Especially if the successor strongly disagrees with them on most things.
Literally way too late for that and forced relocation was one of the myriad of reasons why this bullshit keeps happening.
Did she gave the wink and the nod towards the Israeli delegates during the speech or was it afterwards, backstage?!
But tut-tutting israel while civilians are left in place to be bombed is fine. But don't you dare move them!
I mean, it’s just going to be like past big conflicts. Where Israel claims people were not forced to relocate.
Folks won’t be “forced,” but their lives and their family’s lives will be at great risk if they don’t relocate - so a lot of people are going to relocate if they have the option. If they don’t, they’re basically sleeping on a shooting range.
Well shit, we couldn’t get Israel to acknowledge or respect borders in the past. There were no consequences then, so why should the Israeli government suddenly start caring now? They’ll take whatever they want, and the most that America might do is make a qualified, watered down complaint while still providing Israel with whatever military aid they ask for.
Oh yes it will.
It ~~always~~ already is with "settlers"
Based on what's already happened to Gaza, it's time for sentencing
Oh yeah, what are you gonna do, bomb Israel?
I don't think Israel minds the borders of Gaza remaining as is, just as long as there aren't any Palestinians living there. They'll "voluntarily" relocate, for humanitarian reasons, since most of the infrastructure, houses, and hospitals happened to fall down.
It will happen, whether the US "permits" it or not.
It already has happened and is actively happening as we speak, with weapons, money and intel from the US.
And with US knowledge and permission. This is window dressing to cover for nazis like Netanyahu
Too late?
US: No relocations!
Netanyahu: ... Okay...
Under no circumstances will the United States permit the forced relocation of Palestinians
After 40 years they're finally not going to permit it? That's great news! Will they enforce the 1948 border, and how will they compensate Palestine for the land taken for that alone?
Apparently, there is a time machine that goes back before May 1948. I didn't know that.
except they are permitting it and even arming them as we speak.
tell the truth or shut the fuck up about it.
I don't understand why the US feels they can tell other countries what they will and will not allow. (I am American BTW)
its money. its always about money. america is a thug for hire. we are bought and paid for to use our weapons and expertise to police the planet. the people profiting will never let it end.
'defense' hahahahhaha
Because in the case of Israel they very much can.
doesnt really matter what the US permits, it's happening anyway
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Frankly, the scale of civilian suffering, and the images and videos coming from Gaza are devastating,” Harris said at a press conference in Dubai.
Israel said its military campaign in Gaza is aimed at destroying Hamas, the militant Islamist group responsible for the October 7 terror attack that left more than 1,200 Israelis dead and saw another 240 taken hostage.
However, regional leaders like Jordan’s King Abdullah II have expressed concerns that Israel could use the conflict to seize parts of Gaza or expel its Palestinian residents.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told CNN in November that Israel’s security role in a post-war Gaza would be an “over-riding, over-reaching military envelope,” but did not explain what that meant.
During their meeting, Harris and Sisi discussed “ideas for post-conflict planning in Gaza including efforts on reconstruction, security, and governance,” the statement said.
Harris also spoke with the Emir of Qatar after negotiations over resuming a pause in hostilities between Israel and Hamas appeared to break down on Saturday, according to a White House official.
