Silvio Tattiescone Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 Hamas and other groups committed war crimes on 7 October, says HRW Quote Hamas and at least four other Palestinian armed groups committed numerous war crimes and crimes against humanity against civilians during the 7 October attack on southern Israel, the campaign group Human Rights Watch says. A new report accuses the hundreds of gunmen who breached the Gaza border fence of violations including deliberate and indiscriminate attacks on civilians, wilful killing of persons in custody, sexual and gender-based violence, hostage-taking, mutilation of bodies and looting. It also found the killing of civilians and hostage-taking were “central aims of the planned attack” and not an “afterthought”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hague declared them to be practising "racial segregation and apartheid". Meanwhile, they got Bella Hadid cancelled for being Palestinian. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty weird form of whataboutery when you could look it up. A whole report here from 2021, calling it apartheid and persecution and detailing Israel's crimes against humanity in considerable detail. https://www.hrw.org/report/2021/04/27/threshold-crossed/israeli-authorities-and-crimes-apartheid-and-persecution If you thought HRW are equivocal because they condemn Hamas' undeniable crimes against humanity, you don't know anything about them.

I'm glad Politico published it as they're an outlet with reach into mainstream liberal USA and its that very demographic who need shook into reality regarding Israel. It all hinges on them - American mainstream liberals - getting with the programme in order for this whole nonsense to unravel. It can't be overstated how much USA drives Israeli actions. Much of the funding for West Bank settlement expansion comes from private US donations which are tax deductible in order to incentivise them. Then all the slaughter in Gaza is being done with weapons gifted by the US taxpayer. While you get American liberals like Biden who're just callous racists, for the majority I think genuine ignorance is the problem. We see in this interview with the same doctor from that Politico article, that the CBS reporter is genuinely shocked to learn the IDF deliberately snipe children in the head: (Full CBS report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqusa-96WLs&ab_channel=CBSSundayMorning). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MazzyStar Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 The leader of the ethnic supremacist, genocidal, apartheid entity speaking in front of congress with almost total support. Shame on every single last person that thinks Biden is anything other than an evil geriatric c**t. Even Ronald fucking Reagan was willing to ,and did, stop supplying Israel with arms for crimes far less severe than we are currently witnessing. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely find it difficult to watch the way that piece of shit is revered over there. It's absolutely sickening and really highlights how unaligned these people are with the interests of ordinary people. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Tattiescone Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 https://www.aa.com.tr/en/americas/netanyahu-faces-boycott-from-nearly-half-of-democrats-during-us-congressional-address/3284901#:~:text=The total of at least,of the lawmakers present Wednesday. Quote Amid persistent protests during his visit to the US capital, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced an unprecedented boycott from about half of the Democrats in the House of Representatives and Senate as he addressed a joint session of Congress on Wednesday. Based on an exhaustive analysis of public statements, media reports and video footage, Anadolu determined that a historic number of House representatives and senators skipped Netanyahu's speech. The total of at least 96 lawmakers is nearly double the number of Democrats who boycotted his 2015 address -- 58. The sweeping volume of holdouts stands in stark contrast to the dozens of standing ovations Netanyahu received from many of the lawmakers present Wednesday. While many lawmakers had previously announced their intention to boycott the address, Representative Rashida Tlaib, the sole Palestinian-American lawmaker, chose to attend, donning a keffiyeh and holding a sign reading "war criminal" on one side, and "guilty of genocide" on the other in a prominent display of defiance. After Netanyahu concluded his remarks, Tlaib said the standing ovations for the Israeli premier were "disgusting.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 The killing of innocent Israeli children is sad and tragic but the coverage by the MSM of this relatively small number of casualties in an occupied territory compared to the mass slaughter of Palestinian children tells you all you need to know about the relative value placed on the two groups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
