"Leaked Cables Show Biden Pressuring Nations to Oppose Palestine's UN Membership. 'This is the evidence that President Biden's talk about a two-state solution is nothing but idle talk,' said one former Lebanese diplomat.
As the United Nations Security Council prepares to vote Thursday on Palestine's bid to become a full U.N. member, the Biden administration—which claims to support Palestinian statehood—is lobbying UNSC nations in an effort to wrangle enough 'no' votes so that the United States can avoid resorting to a veto.
Leaked cables obtained by The Intercept show U.S. pressure on Security Council members including Malta—which currently presides over the body—and Ecuador.
While claiming that President Joe Biden backs 'Palestinian aspirations for statehood,' one of the cables asserts that 'it remains the U.S. view that the most expeditious path toward a political horizon for the Palestinian people is in the context of a normalization agreement between Israel and its neighbors.'

-->The NYT didn't print this story; nor did our mainstream media. The story exposes the lier our President really is about stopping the genocide. Biden will be forever known as the genocide president.

Common Dreams and ProPublica:
"Blinken Hasn't Ended Aid for Israeli Military Units Tied to Killings, Rapes. 'Blinken continues a very long American tradition of very selective enforcement of human rights laws,' said one critic.
Amid global condemnation of Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip and the Biden administration's complicity, ProPublica revealed Wednesday that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has for months ignored staff recommendations to cut off American aid to Israeli military and police units accused of human rights violations including killings and rapes.
'The incidents under review mostly took place in the West Bank and occurred before Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel,' which was the catalyst for the current Israeli escalation in Gaza, reported ProPublica's Brett Murphy. 'They include reports of extrajudicial killings by the Israeli Border Police; an incident in which a battalion gagged, handcuffed, and left an elderly Palestinian American man for dead; and an allegation that interrogators tortured and raped a teenager who had been accused of throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails.' "

-->We know about the NYT by now. It is a Zionist rag that has instructed its reporters not to use the words: "occupation" or "ethnic cleansing." Also "slaughter" is off the list, unless it applies to what Hamas has supposedly done. One can only hope that Israel, and its propaganda arm the NYT will someday pay for their war crimes.

"Hundreds of alumni from the prestigious New York University (NYU) in New York City will withhold more than $3m worth of potential contributions from the institution's largest fundraising day on Wednesday over its suppression of students and faculty organising against what they call 'genocide' in Gaza.
NYU Alumni for Palestine, the group that mobilised to deter alumni from donating to the university, told Middle East Eye that the stifling of pro-Palestinian voices and its refusal to condemn Israel's killing of Palestinians in Gaza had compelled them to take action against their alma mater. ...
The group cited an informal tracker created by NYU Faculty for Justice in Palestine, which documented retaliatory actions against an estimated 100 students as well as 25 staff and faculty over the past six months because of their comments or mobilising for Palestine."

-->Students, parents, and alums are pushing back against their pro genocide campuses. But no coverage from the NYT. Did you expect any?
Each week, we cover the stories that are just left out of the
US propaganda machine. News that the people in charge, the
corporations and your government, want kept from the public eye.
