US says it is talking to Israel about safe passage for Gaza civilians

The United States is talking to Israeli officials and others about the idea of a safe passage for Gaza civilians after Israel's air strikes following a deadly Hamas attack over the weekend, the U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday.

"We are focused on this question, there are consultations going on," Sullivan told reporters in a White House press briefing.

Israel has battered Palestinians with deadly air strikes in Gaza after Palestinian Islamist group Hamas' attack on Israel on Saturday that left hundreds dead.

Gaza's Health Ministry said at least 830 Palestinians were killed and up to 4,250 wounded in Israeli air strikes on the blockaded enclave since Saturday. The enclave, only 40km (25 miles) long by 10km (6 miles) wide, is home to 2.3 million people.

In this case, it'll essentially be signing death sentence for all the men. It's a facet of sexism that's rarely addressed. Happened in Ukraine, probably gonna happen here as well.

Happens in America everything there is a draft. Happens I. South Korea and a bunch of other countries. Men don't matter to society unless they are rich

Patriarchy hurts everyone.

Dunno where you live but the usa is a matriachy.

How do you figure?

The laws all benefit women, support systems benefit women. Women have more rights than men.

Depends on where you live. It's true that a lot of places have, for example, a lot more women-only homeless shelters despite having more homeless men. On the other hand, if you live in Texas, goodbye bodily autonomy.

Men don't have bodily autonomy in any state

Baby boys don't, unfortunately. Adult men do, which isn't true for adult women. It seems rather pedantic that people would downvote you over such a simple mistake.

So if men have bodily autonomy explain the draft. You know the thing every male has to sign up for at 18 in the United states ?

That is before ww get into paternity rights

Actually you're right, that's totally fair. Men lose autonomy if the draft is ever used. Fortunately, there's enough anti-draft sentiment that activating it would basically just fast-track the government being overthrown, so it'll never happen.

They also loose autonomy as soon as a child is involved.

Had sex woth a girl and threw the condom in the trash. She fishes it out and uses it to impregnant herself. Too bad you owe child support for 18 years

Woman rapes you and she gets pregnant... to bad you owe child support. We're you a minor... lol don't matter your a man and have to pay child support.

Oh you were a trusting husband and now are being divorced. Guess what the child was never yours and you can't ever see them again... oh and you still pay child support !

You and your wife froze your sperm and her eggs. Got divorced? Too bad she is allowed to use your speem and you are on the hook for child support!

Can't afford the child support ? To bad off to jail . you sill man.

Let's not even get I to infant male genital mutilation.

Other than MGM, which you are right about, none of that has anything to do with bodily autonomy even though they're valid problems. Also, you don't go to jail for owing money. That's straight up not a thing in the US.
