Macron, Trudeau Call on Israel to Stop Killing Babies in Gaza in Break from U.S.
Israel is punishing Gaza to try and show its military might in the region.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is learning that not all countries are like the UK, and follow the U.S. in lockstep on nearly every issue.
French President Emmanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have called on Netanyahu to stop killing babies in Gaza in the name of dismantling Hamas after the 7 October attack.
U.S. KNESSET’S SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON LASHES OUT AGAINST THOSE CALLING FOR CEASEFIRE
“I urge the government of Israel to exercise maximum restraint. The world is watching, on TV, on social media - we're hearing the testimonies of doctors, family members, survivors, kids who have lost their parents. The world is witnessing this killing of women, of children, of babies. This has to stop," he said.
Antony Blinken, the U.S. secretary of state, lashed out last weekend at those who called for a ceasefire in Gaza during a Group of Seven meeting, and said, “those calling for an immediate ceasefire have an obligation to explain how to address the unacceptable result that would likely bring.”
Blinken essentially repeated Netanyahu’s line that the war must go on no matter the humanitarian costs. The idea is that any pause would allow Hamas to regroup. Netanyahu has said there can be no compromise as long as the group is holding hostages.

On 7 October, Hamas invaded parts of Israel and killed about 1,200 people and took about 240 hostages. Israel has been relentless in its bombing campaigns and killed more than 11,000 and displaced 1.5 million.
Besides the bombing, Israel’s blockade has put Gaza’s health system on the brink. On Saturday, the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health said three newborn babies have died in Gaza’s Al-Shifa Hospital.
“The intensive care unit, pediatric department, and oxygen devices have stopped working” because of a lack of fuel, Dr. Ashraf al-Qidra, a ministry spokesman, told CNN.
The network said Doctors Without Borders could not contact staff at the Al-Shifa Hospital who had described a “catastrophic situation” inside.
Trudeau’s comments follow Macron who said Friday that Israel does not have the right to continue its major bombing campaign in Gaza and said Jerusalem must stop killing women and babies in these strikes.
"De facto - today, civilians are bombed - de facto,” Macron said “These babies, these ladies, these old people are bombed and killed. So there is no reason for that and no legitimacy. So we do urge Israel to stop."
Netanyahu responded to Trudeau on X: “It is not Israel that is deliberately targeting civilians but Hamas that beheaded, burned and massacred civilians in the worst horrors perpetrated on Jews since the Holocaust,” Netanyahu wrote.
“While Israel is doing everything to keep civilians out of harm’s way, Hamas is doing everything to keep them in harm’s way. Israel provides civilians in Gaza humanitarian corridors and safe zones, Hamas prevents them from leaving at gunpoint.
“It is Hamas not Israel that should be held accountable for committing a double war crime — targeting civilians while hiding behind civilians.”
TRENDPOST: The frauds who make up our political class get away with murder – not only the 11,000 plus women and children slaughtered in Gaza over the last few weeks – but the long list of wars launched by politicians across the globe that have slaughtered countless millions... in the name of freedom and democracy.
Not only that, but they also steal our money and give it to whoever pays them off including the too-big-to-fail banksters.
How do they get away with it? Because the general public offers no resistance, keeps their heads down, looks up to their leaders, moves along and does what they are told.
To the "leaders" we are nothing more than the plantation workers of Slavelandia… hollow shells who swallow whatever they are fed and believe the propaganda that the mainstream media's corporate Presstitutes sell them.
Yeah right Trudeau don’t care!! Canada is now allowing euthanasia of babies and toddlers in our own country of Canada it’s a sick Satanic ritual that they’re doing and he cares about other babies around the world it’s all propaganda!!!! Maybe he should take care of CANADA first
