And Iran supporting terrorists???

shadowwiatch.bsky.social•95 days ago

It’s kinda funny how you call them terrorists while they’ve mainly focused on targeting military targets while the jews of shitrael target hospitals, medics, schools, mosques, churches, journalists, tents, peace keepers, rape detainees and use palestinians as human shields.

Neither the UN nor the ICC’s are efficient bodies because in the end, unfortunately, political and above all economic interests prevail. So they are sterile bodies that are designed playing to the gallery.

If you believe the land is yours by divine right I wouldn’t expect you to be very concerned about international law.

Proverb: The weak are meat, the strong eat.

Looking at data available, Israel has lost less than 8,000 people in ALL conflicts, since 1970.

In last 12 months Israel has killed at least 15,000 children

...i.e. double the total number of Israelis lost in 50 years.

International Law is dead.

The USA is all for these institutions until they go against USA interests.

Self defense????? Is rah hell has been attacking Palestine and stealing land since before 1948!!!

hissyfits.bsky.social•94 days ago

People appear to be confusing self defense with war crimes. Self defence is an acceptable part of any war, even when sometimes it results in the death of innocent civilians. War crimes are entirely different. Deliberate intentional actions, that violate accepted international rules of war.

hissyfits.bsky.social•94 days ago

For those who cry that the ICC is issuing arrest warrants for people simply defending themselves, it might be useful to highlight exactly what evidence is before the ICC and whether the evidence could ever be classified as self defence.

Simply amazing that ‘the world’ is still a spectator and doing nothing to stop this wanton evil
#FreePalestine

hissyfits.bsky.social•66 days ago

Absolutely. History will record its complacency, identifying all those countries that watched a genocide with zero intervention and even supporting those committing it.

Does anyone bother to publish the Palestinian view of things? If yes, where?

Vote your best interests!!!

elizabethnormand.bsky.social•95 days ago

Check ou Bisan Owda and Moataz Azaiza. Its a good start. I don't know if they are on this platform but they are easy to find.

joseph2482.bsky.social•95 days ago

Thanks

tony-satori.bsky.social•95 days ago

there should be trials asap even if the israeli terrorists aren't captured. convict them in absentia. death penalties issued. etc.

bakoko.bsky.social•95 days ago

Worth reading article by Yagil Levy in Haaretz on the myth of Israel possessing the most moral army. Don’t use it as an excuse to post antisemitic responses. It’s an objective reality given the evidence. The price of an out of control Bibi & his racist ministers. Too too sad!

emma5155.bsky.social•95 days ago

I think BN is not a good person for Israel
No one has any beef with Israel or Jewish people
It’s the hard extremism that is screwing things up imo
Need new visions new goals and new people because death and destruction never solved much
GOES FOR BOTH SIDES

bakoko.bsky.social•95 days ago

Absolutely. That’s why unfortunately the Muslim voters in Michigan & other places made such a massive mistake supporting Diaper Donnie! He will turn the Middle East into an even worse mess. Check out Standing Together on internet & see the struggle they are bravely waging.

dogukan-cy.bsky.social•95 days ago

Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Syria, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen are not yet parties to the ICC. FYI

paris.socialist.markets•95 days ago

Okay? That doesn't mean Israel isn't violating international law

dogukan-cy.bsky.social•95 days ago

That has nothing to do with what I wanted to draw attention to. The listed countries don’t recognize ICC’s rulings. Yet, Arab societies wax lyricsl about “Western hypocrisy”. Almost noone marched on the streets in Arab countries. Netanyahu is safer in Gulf countries than in Europe.

paris.socialist.markets•95 days ago

They can absolutely call out western hypocrisy while not being a part of the international institution that "the west" is gaslighting us into believing has no power over how it determines who/what state is actively violating international law.

the-jumby.bsky.social•94 days ago

Sympathise with your position but @dogukan-cy.bsky.social makes a fair point.

You need to stop referring to 'us'.

Arab leaders, just like Western leaders, do not give a fuck about you. They care only about staying in power, their own profit.

They will lie, cheat and kill to that end.

paris.socialist.markets•95 days ago

Should they be members of the ICC? Yes. Are they able to point out the hypocrisy of other states that are attempting to shield war criminals from prosecution? Also yes

dogukan-cy.bsky.social•95 days ago

It is also time for Arab societies to get real about the whole issue (rejecting the 2-state solution was a huge mistake). Israel will not disappear. It’s there between the “river and the sea”. Israel will naturally hammer on as long as Arabs keep calling for its destruction.

dogukan-cy.bsky.social•95 days ago

Israel is committing war crimes and should certainly be put on trial. But the real hypocrisy here is of Arab countries that love doing business with Israel while shedding crocodile tears about Palestine. Real hypocrites are Arab despots that avoid joining int orgs to keep their people enslaved.

Stellar example of a useful idiot

Has war criminal Putin been arrested yet?

paris.socialist.markets•95 days ago

How many countries has Putin travelled to that are signatories of the Rome Statute? What, if a person isn't arrested is there no reason to put out a warrant when an individual is violating international law?

ICC 👏🏼👏🏼

jessicawolfendale.bsky.social•94 days ago

That’s why it’s so important to challenge the toxic ethical narratives used by Israel and the US to create impunity for war crimes https://www.justsecurity.org/104969/states-ethics-excuse-war-crimes/

The Universal Principles of Humanity, have been buried since October 2023. It seems nothing is off limits even MURDER BY Vicious,Vile, Perverted, Depravity!
