ozimoron Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories Francesca Albanese shared that the crimes committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip since 7 October could preoccupy the International Criminal Court (ICC) for the next 50 years. This came in a post on her X account on Friday, in which Albanese published a video showing the Israeli army killing four Palestinian civilians in the city of Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip, using an armed drone. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240323-un-rapporteur-israels-crimes-in-gaza-may-occupy-icc-for-50-years/ The video shows the killing of 4 civilians including that of an injured man. A clear war crime. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhVV2_mub84 Edited March 24 by ozimoron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving the goal posts now from a factual claim to an opinion because you cannot provide a link. Which is of course impossible as the only way to make that judgement is for each and every individual case of bombing to be investigated by the ICC and "if" evidence found then tried in court. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph J. Ellis There wouldn't any devastation had the Palestine terrorists not attacked Israel in the manner they did, this is so obvious I don't know why you keep needing reminding of this, but of course you don't want to listen, it doesn't bother you when terrorists make another incursion into Israel and reward them by repeating another 7/10. "beware of playing with fire, you will get burned." Joseph J. Ellis. Thanks for the quote but it seems more fitting directed at the Palestians than Israel as is being proven.

Popular Post Neeranam Posted March 24 Popular Post Share Posted March 24 2 minutes ago, ozimoron said: Thanks for that. Many overlook the inequalities and power imbalances that have perpetuated Palestinian's struggle for self-determination and basic human rights. Palestinians have faced displacement, occupation, and numerous human rights violations, including restrictions on movement, land confiscation, and the expansion of illegal settlements. Those who say the war started on Oct 7 are conveniently forgetting the atrocities Israel committed in the last 20 years. You cannot treat human beings like what Israel did and be surprised when they fight back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti-Black Racism among Jewish Israelis [and Recent Asylum-Seekers] Over the past few decades, anti-Black racism in Israel has been primarily directed towards Ethiopian Israelis, part of the Jewish Beta Israel community, who number about 155,300 people in Israel (1.7% of Israel’s population), and non-Jewish asylum seekers from Eritrea and Sudan who constitute less than 1% of the population.
