Shelley Silas @shelleysilas.bsky.social · 25/05/2025Utterly disgusted, angry that the world does nothing. This has gone too far. No more. No more babies starving. No more innocent deaths. Why are world leaders watching Netanyahu and doing NOTHING? Shameful. You are all culpable of this as well as Putin’s atrocities. 040
