Not sure about outrage but disapproval is on the rise:https://news.gallup.com/poll/642695/majority-disapprove-israeli-action-gaza.aspx.

"On Monday morning, the IDF, Israel's internal security agency Shin Bet and Israeli police announced they had arrested a 21-year-old Palestinian. The statement said he had "implicated himself" in the teen's death after an interrogation by Shin Bet". Nothing suspicious here. Israel can do what it...

It doesn't matter if the truck was destroyed by a bomb or an artillery shell, its still destroyed and quibbling won't change that.

I agree that Israeli setlements in the West Bank are colonies of Israel (as well as being illegal) but I'm not convinced that Israel itself is a colony and I'm still waiting for an explanation as to why some people think it is.

In what sense is Israel a colony?

I played this from your 820ad save and got conquest in 1530ad. Main difference was capping Toku after Sal before heading west.

While all the attention is on this story what's happening in Gaza?

Obviously if Jewish organisations wish to call themselves Zionist its not racism but merely an expression of their political goals, if anyone else says Zionist its clearly a racist term.

No surprises there.

If the Evangelicals are right and God is going to protect Israel in a supernatural way then there is no need for the US of A to give Israel any weapons.

I believe that technically Gaza is not part of Israel though Israel is the occupying power and maintains tight border controls on Gaza. However Israel's actions as an occupying power come under the jurisdiction of International Law not domestic law.

The BBC has come out with a totally different version of arms exporters to Israel https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-68737412 with Germany being a major contributor.

Anyone can make allegations about anyone. Without supporting evidence these allegations are at best worthless and at worst slanderous.

I'm waiting for Israel's investigation to reveal that they have received intelligence reports that Hamas were using vehicles marked as 'World Central Kitchen' to transport arms and ammunition,

Reports are c 1400 people were killed in Israel on October 7. About 200 of these were Hamas gunmen and 1200 Israelis/Foreign Nationals . How many of these were killed by Hamas and how many were killed by Israelis we actually don't know and its unlikely we're going to find out anytime soon...
