During a budget hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin dismissed claims of Israel committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, stating that there is no evidence to support such allegations.
Austin asserted, “We don’t have any evidence of genocide being [committed]” by Israel in Gaza.
His remarks coincide with increasing pressure on the Biden administration and Democrats regarding U.S. support for Israel. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) recently remarked that international officials could potentially classify the Gaza conflict as genocide under legal terms.

Unfortunately, once again YWN chooses to ignore basic tznius standards and expose thousands to indecent pictures. This time it’s the video clip from cspan, on the right side.
How can a supposed frum website justify such carelessness. Are you not aware of the dangers the internet sewer presents to Yiddishe neshamos, don’t you have any basic safeguards to justify operating on the internet. Where is your supposed Rabbinic oversight? You don’t seem to take this issue seriously. Do you even care?
It’s not as important to me to have my remarks posted, although it might wake some people up to internet danger, but rather get this message across to the administration, to do something about it. Someone responsible is ultimately going to have to give a din v’cheshbon. Does that mean anything to you?
GD bless Lloyd Austin. A true mentsch.
let’s I think you forgot to take your meds this morning.
To Flatbush Tzadik:
Maybe, being a tzadik, you were protected from viewing pritzus pictures. I can’t claim that for myself. I opened the clip, to be shown women sitting in very compromising positions, for frum standards. This post is only one of several that I similarly complained about, where pictures and clips are inserted into articles, that are way below basic tznius standards, and we should expect better from a website such as YWN. My tone is reflecting my growing frustration that YWN seems to be ignoring this important issue. I only hope that the moderator is passing this on to the proper administrator so that such things should be reviewed before being added to the articles. So, Mr. Tzadik, do you not agree?
