WHO Chief: Israel took out 2/3 of Gaza's hospitals



Since the 7th of October, WHO has verified more than 250 attacks on health care in Gaza and the West Bank, in addition to 25 attacks on health care in Israel – hospitals, clinics, patients, ambulances. Last week, WHO documented 5 attacks on 5 hospitals in one day.

In the past 48 hours alone, four hospitals have been put out of action, representing some 430 beds.

More than 100 of our UN colleagues have been killed - and counting.

And as we speak, there are reports of firing outside the Al-Shifa and Rantisi hospitals.

Half of the Gaza Strip’s 36 hospitals and two-thirds of its primary health care centres are not functioning at all. Those that are functioning are operating way beyond their capacities. The health system is on its knees, and yet somehow is continuing to deliver some lifesaving care.

"Forced collectivization" - Vanguard style Here, Vanguard, et al are doing for real what Stalin and the USSR were accused of doing. Except it is all of Ukraine that is being "liquidated" - physically, and before the eyes of the world.

Several large US pension funds, foundations, and university endowments are also invested in Ukrainian land through NCH Capital – a US-based private equity fund, which is the fifth largest landholder in the country. How is the takeover of agricultural land happening? Whereas at least 4.3 million hectares are (as of March of last year) already controlled by agribusinesses in Ukraine,

The Ghost of October 1962 Hovers Over Us

"Above all, while defending our own vital interests, nuclear powers must avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to the choice of either a humiliating defeat or a nuclear war." Those words were delivered in June, 1963 by then-President John F. Kennedy at American University in Washington, DC. It was the conclusory lesson he drew from the so-called Cuban Missile Crisis the previous year. An entirely different dynamic exists now between the White House, the Pentagon and the CIA than existed in October, 1962 "Listen. You tell them those chains of command end at one place - me!" - President John F. Kennedy to Kenneth O'Donnell regarding Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Cuban Missile Crisis, per Thirteen Days by Robert F. Kennedy, Sr. And for those who believe that the US can continue to give Ukraine bombs to drop on Russia without Russia holding the US culpable, there's this from that same book: "A missile is a missile...it makes no great differ
