Popular Post Morch Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 58 minutes ago, ozimoron said: Nor will they ignore the deaths of Palestinians who aren't Hamas. Do you understand yet? 27 minutes ago, ozimoron said: I gather you didn't comprehend my question or are you suggesting that any Palestinian civilians killed by the IDF were being used as human shields? @ozimoron You don't get it. South Africa's claim is that Israel is doing something very very bad, very very wrong, and out of line with how countries are supposed to conduct wars. This can be approached from two angles - intent and practice. As far as I can understand, the case for 'intent' is very weak, and the the case for 'practice' is relatively easy to do away with on legal and factual grounds. If all that can be 'proven' is that Israel is just 'regular bad', rather than very very bad - the case falls. So as per your 'questions' above - if there is no intent element (and there is none), then what it comes down to is how many on the casualty lists were (a) not Hamas, (b) not used as 'human shields' by Hamas, (c) acceptable collateral damage. That's where facts and reality kick in, rather than your imagination and bias. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The dog ate my homework type excuse from the UN........... Lets hope the UN court fare better in this case UN claims antisemitic posts are due to employee account being hacked (January 5, 2024 / JNS) In what reads like the plot of a thriller no one would write, the United Nations claims that an unknown party hacked an employee’s social-media account, posted Jew-hatred (including comparing Israelis to Nazis) and then evidently out of concern for the reputation of the woman that he or she had hacked, deleted the account. Even that sequence of events took some time to get there. At first, the United Nations claimed that the account was a fake and didn’t belong to its employee in Germany, a writer and consultant named Lamia Burkart, and told a man being targeted by the account to delete his posts connecting the account to Burkart. https://www.jns.org/un-claims-antisemitic-posts-are-due-to-employee-account-being-hacked/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What great cases have been won by the court? I would have had far more faith in the ICC which is independent. The ICJ being UN and its history of anti-Semitism, well lets see.

thaibeachlovers Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 16 hours ago, rabas said: But all is not without reason. The fundamentally unchangeable reason is that without warning Hamas committed the worst most horrific terrorist attack on innocent people the world has ever seen. That can never be acceptable. As the Secretary General of the UN said, the attack did not happen in a vacuum, but you and the others that support Israel killing 20 thousand innocent Palestinians ( all the ones that are not in Hamas ) refuse to acknowledge the oppression, collective punishment, land theft and the blockade of Gaza that led to the attack in the first place. As for "the worst most horrific terrorist attack on innocent people the world has ever seen" I'm sure there are a few more in mankind's history that might qualify for that description. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibeachlovers Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Given I spent many years working in the ME, that can hardly apply to me, and you will not find any post from me supporting the Hamas attack, though I have posted the reasons the attack happened, something rather lacking, IMO, from your side of the equation, as if Hamas just decided to go and murder a lot of people for no reason at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clarified the following day, you should keep up. “I have condemned unequivocally the horrifying and unprecedented 7 October acts of terror by Hamas in Israel. Nothing can justify the deliberate killing, injuring and kidnapping of civilians — or the launching of rockets against civilian targets.” The secretary-general said he spoke of the grievances of the Palestinian people and also stated: “But the grievances of the Palestinian people cannot justify the appalling attacks by Hamas.” https://apnews.com/article/guterres-vacuum-cohen-erdan-justification-terrorism-47732bba62e2b1e9093bb76159ce236a 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a pity its a warzone, used to have some nice hotels: I didn't expect that, even in the frigging hotels: Come stay at the Blue Beach Hotel in Gaza, where #Hamas replaced the room service and the spa with complementary AK-47s and terrorist tunnels. IDF troops operated at a Hamas terrorist quarters under the Blue Beach Hotel by the beach in northern Gaza, using a range of methods and destroyed the infrastructure earlier this week. Hamas terrorists exploited the hotel, from where they planned and executed attacks both above and below ground. Many weapons were found under the hotel, including AK-47 assault rifles, explosives and drones. During the course of combat, dozens of Hamas terrorists entrenched in the hotel fired anti-tank missiles at IDF forces, who returned fire. During the forces’ operations in the hotel’s area, the soldiers encountered and eliminated terrorists. https://twitter.com/IDF/status/1743355674455613758 IDF says it demolished Hamas tunnel network under northern Gaza beach resort The soldiers discovered at least seven tunnel shafts in the area of the hotel, leading to an underground network of passages where Hamas operatives hid, the IDF says. The IDF says troops recovered in the underground site assault rifles, explosive devices and drones used by Hamas. In November, the IDF said troops killed around 30 Hamas gunmen who were holed up in the hotel, firing anti-tank missiles at the forces. The tunnels, which were recently investigated by troops, were demolished by combat engineers, the IDF says. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/idf-says-it-demolished-hamas-tunnel-network-under-northern-gaza-beach-resort/ Edited January 7 by Bkk Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
