then on december 8th last year, washington rejected another security council resolution aiming to mandate a cease fire in gaza. deputy us ambassador to the un, robert wood said that text was rushed and ignored us demands. the palestinian death doll at the time was 17,400. the third us rejection of a ceasefire came on february 20th when thomas greenfield bizarrely claimed any cease firewood. jeopardize us negotiations with the waring sides, the palestinian death doll kept mounting and the humanitarian crisis in gaza grew worse. the us stonewalling at the security council came even as votes at the united nations general assembly overwhelmingly called for a ceasefire. while resolutions agreed at the general assembly are non-binding, they carry political weights and reflect the international community's real stance on the israeli war. but the

in today's show we'll be revealing the role of the diamond business in sustaining israel's economy, how it supports zionist extremists, its links to illegal settlements and the way in which it's bank rolling genocide in gaza. what israel is able to do is sanitize blood diamonds, but not only that, the proceeds of diamond cell, but those who are engaged in it as reporting uh the illegal settlements in palestine, the whole issue here is that, if you have biden, you have a deeply pro israel genocidal policy, if you have trump, you have a deeply pro israel genocidal policy, there are differences of course, in particular in financial relationships, but but the the differences are small.
