Israeli offensive on Rafah would be a humanitarian catastrophe, says Germany
2024-02-15
[Jpost] An Israeli offensive on the Gaza city of Rafah where 1.3 million people have sought refuge would be a humanitarian catastrophe, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said on Wednesday.

Speaking at a news conference in Jerusalem, Baerbock said: "1.3 million people are waiting there in a very small space. They don't really have anywhere else to go right now ... If the Israeli army were to launch an offensive on Rafah under these conditions, it would be a humanitarian catastrophe."
It's them or us, Annalena.
Their heads are with Israel, but their secret, romantic hearts are with the bandits of Hamas. Even though Hamas aren’t nearly so harmless as bandits.

#2  ^ Yeah. Lots of words have called from the past and said they'd like to have their meanings back.

#1  I think that the words "Humanitarian Catastrophe" have been so overused that they no longer mean anything.
