Climate crisis is a reality worldwide but the genocide on Gaza is exacerbating the global climate emergency.
Israel has received 30% of all US foreign aid. Since World War II they get about $4 billion every year and have received almost 300 billion since 1945. When you adjust for inflation which is enough money to end world hunger.
The destruction of vast forests sold to timber companies and the scraping away of the topsoil have left behind poisoned wastelands.
