Over 60,000 Palestinians have died in the 21-month Israel-Hamas war, Gaza’s Health Ministry says

This is not a war it is a genocide. It is shooting at captured prisoners, it is shooting trapped people who can not escape because Israeli soldiers control all the borders. It is not a war because Hamas has no way to fight back as they have rifles and Israel has fighter jets, bombs, missiles, and tanks. Pretty one sided, especially with Israel deliberately targeting aid facilities and providers. Hugs

Bonus Marchers on the Capitol Steps
Federal troops, under command of General Douglas MacArthur, forcibly dispersed the so-called “Bonus Expeditionary Force,” or Bonus Army. They were World War I veterans who had gathered in Washington, D.C., to demand money they had been promised but weren’t scheduled to receive until 1945. Most of the marchers were unemployed veterans in desperate financial straits during the Great Depression.
