    Other Latin American countries, such as Mexico and Brazil, have also called for a ceasefire.

    “What we have now is the insanity of Israel’s prime minister, who wants to wipe out the Gaza Strip,” said Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Friday.

    Meanwhile… Israel’s official response…

    “the Bolivian government is aligning itself with the Hamas terrorist organization,” Israel’s Foreign Ministry said.

        Could you give some context for why it’s a ridiculous statement? Or its ridiculous onky because of Bolivia’s comment?

          Honestly it was just the latter; idk about Bolivia’s politics at all, but if Israel is saying anyone who condemns their actions is pro-Hamas then I say it’s ridiculous unless they have actual proof that shows they’re actively supporting them

    I think the article title is misleading, the removal of diplomats, and the international friction is due to human rights violations. Due to the civilian suffering. They don’t care about Hamas either way

    Bolivia’s current ruling party supports Russia in their current war, so it’s not like they are bothered by a country committing genocide.

    MAS Deputy Rolando Cuéllar also sided with Russia and said President Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine was “right.” He further said Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski was a “dictator” for trying to create “a Nazi colony” in Europe.

      Not actually engaging with this guy, but it’s kind of hilarious they mentioned 2021 because that was one of the most obviously good things Hamas ever did (they basically stopped a bunch of Palestinians in East Jerusalem from getting their land legally stolen).

      Latin America is just ahead of the curve. In the West we will continue protesting and putting pressure on our politicans like the world did to the West when it supported aparthied South Africa.

      Keep pretending as if the rest of the world’s opnions don’t matter. You will be even more enraged and shocked as the walls continue to come down on this genocide perpetuating government. Netanyahu must go!
