    So brave. So brave.

    I mean, I appreciate any public figure for speaking out but the royal family has the resources to act - not just speak. They could call on parliament to coordinate sea-based aide measures or, honestly, just privately bankroll humanitarian aide.

    If King Chuckles decided to send aide to Palestine as a private citizen, I might just think he’s not a waste of space.

      Brits are historically responsible for this catastrophe since 1917 and are in bed with the Zionists. King Chuckles won’t do anything.

    Sorry skydaddy is still angry. This will continue until blood god gets enough blood or no one is left to continue. But hey look on the bright side when that entire region is a radioactive cinder at least we won’t hear about it on the news every hour.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    “Too many have been killed,” the heir to the British throne said in a major intervention on Tuesday which pushes at the traditional diplomatic boundaries of his royal role, ahead of visits about humanitarian support in Gaza and a global rise in antisemitism.

    The Prince’s rare political intervention goes even further than the significant royal statement issued by William and the Princess of Wales in October, to “utterly condemn” Hamas’s attack and express their “profound distress” at the “devastating” eruption of violence.

    William is set to meet with aid workers helping to provide humanitarian support in the region, hearing about the experiences of those on the ground, and will separately join a synagogue discussion with young people from different communities who are advocates against hatred and antisemitism.

    Championing inter-faith bonds and religious tolerance has been a priority for King Charles, who has stepped back from public-facing duties while he receives treatment for cancer, with which the monarch was diagnosed earlier this month.

    Having already displaced more than 1.9 million people across Gaza, Israel’s Western allies are urging Benjamin Netanyahu not to press ahead with a threatened ground invasion of Rafah, a rare remaining place of relative albeit treacherous shelter close to the border with Egypt.

    The intervention by Prince William comes as Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party shifts its stance on the war to call for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” in Gaza, warning on Tuesday: “We need the fighting to stop now.”
