An alternative perspective :

 

Anyone not giving full support to Palestine following the appalling attacks that began with the Nakba, by Israelis on the Palestinian people, needs their head examining.

One could say:

 To achieve its sworn goal of obliterating hamas, Israel is willing to put the lives of all Gazans- children and adults- at risk.  It's perfectly correct to, put "that all" on Israel.

 

The difference is that Hamas is a designated terrorist group which attacks unarmed civilians far more often than military targets, while Israel is a sovereign state defending its people from attacks by terrorists who use human shields.  There's no moral equivalence between the actions of the IDF and Hamas.

many others to attack  and to  single out Israel

The "attacks" in the UN are from freedom of speech. Wouldn't you want to see that among all the nations?

Albeit, POTUS Trump's full resistance previously to a two-state solution between the Palestinians and Israel, and Netanyahu's on a one-state solution and attempts to disenfranchise Palestinians in Israel who hold Israeli citizenship has contributed to UN debates concerning Israel's behavior towards peaceful solutions.

  Which attack are you referring to ?

Israel does drop leaflets and sends messages to the location of bombings

  The Hamas attacks on Israel on Oct 7 th were illegal 

Any attack on any hospital, school, kindergarten by Israel ever! 

 

I never said they were, but you're still acting like Israel is totally innocent in all of this, which it isn't! Not even close!

What fanatics?  The US senators referenced are not fanatics. Have you read the legislation? It is  not unreasonable. All that it says is that if the UN chooses to  isolate Israel, it should not expect the USA to fund the UN programs that have isolated Israel. For example, in 2023  Iran's was given the chair appointment for the  UN Human Rights Council Social Forum. Iran is a documented abuser of human rights, hanging teenage homosexuals from cranes in public, beating and raping of women who refuse to wear hijabs. Iran used the position to attack and to condemn Israel.  Why would you expect let alone demand that the USA pay for that? The US taxpayers as a whole object.

 

 

Yes, but that does not excuse countries like Afghanistan where women are enslaved, or Syria which  had 500,000+ killed at the hands of Hezbollah, Assad and Iran, or Sudan which has allowed Islamic militias to kill 100,000+ Africans and many others to attack  and to  single out Israel .

 

 

Rubbish, Who are the senators and how much were they paid?  The Arab lobby payments dwarf the small amounts AIPAC has used for lobbying. For example the Saudis have  spent hundreds of millions in lobbying. Between 2016 and 2022,   Saudi foreign agents paid more  than $142 million in lobbying, https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2022/10/saudi-arabia-ramped-up-foreign-influence-operations-in-the-us-during-bidens-presidency/      Look at what Qatar or the UAE pays in lobbying.

 

 

 

The Gaza  war can end if Gaza agrees to stop firing missiles and rockets at israel and releases the hostages or  says where the  bodies of the victims are. Why would you expect Israel to not pursue the liberation of the hostages and to accept the ongoing rocket and missile attacks?

 

 

You  are expressing your bias. The tunnel network between hospitals and schools and the Hamas videos of their use as bunkers, munitions depots, command and control centers has been established.  The facilities stopped being civilian and became legitimate targets as soon as Hamas used them for their war.

 

 

 

Warnings were given. Hamas wants civilian casualties. It is part of the Hamas strategy to obtain as many civilian casualties as possible so that gullible people like you will have an excuse to condemn Israel.  The vast majority of Gazans killed  were combatants or were aiding and supporting the war. Yes some women and young adults have died. Who do you think operates the radios, and worked in the command bunkers or distributed the munitions? Hamas intentionally billeted its family members in some areas to act as human shields and fired rockets and missiles from such places.

 

So, you're saying then that Israel is innocent in all of this?

From the numerous news reports that I have seen  , Israel has given notice of what buildings they intend to bomb .

   Even so, if Hamas are firing rockets from a hospital , then the people inside the hospital must be aware that Israel is very likely to fire back at the rocket source (hospital, school)

Did they fire rockets from a school or a hospital? I thought they were just hiding in it according to the article.

Rockets have been fired from some school and hospitals and schools and hospitals have been used by Hamas for other things .

Have you checked the credibility of your twitter account? Who is CameraOrgUK and who is funding then? 

 

Here is the sky news article that Albanese was referring to. 

 

"When war in Gaza erupted last year, Dr Adnan Al-Bursh worked around the clock while documenting the horror unfolding around him. Then he was detained. Now, Sky News has spoken to people who claim to have witnessed the circumstances leading to his death.

 

"[The director] told us that the [Israeli army] have full data of all males aged between 14 and 65 at Awda hospital," Dr Obeid said, tearfully. "They told him that if all men do not come down… they will destroy the Awda Hospital with all the women and children in it."

 

"In a brief statement, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) confirmed to Sky News that Dr Al-Bursh was detained by its personnel. On 19 December 2023, it says the surgeon was taken to an Israeli military base called Sde Teiman, which has been used for processing detainees since the early part of the war.

 

"When he collected him, his fellow doctor said he had been badly beaten and felt pain all over his body.

"He thought he may have broken ribs," Dr Hamouda said. "He was unable to even go to the toilet alone."

 

"in April, the surgeon was taken to an incarceration facility near Jerusalem called Ofer Prison.

He died shortly after his arrival. News of the surgeon's death was announced in a statement from two Palestinian prisoner support associations at the beginning of May. The Israelis offered no explanation or cause of death.

 

"In mid-April 2024, Dr Adnan Al-Bursh arrived at Section 23 in Ofer Prison. The prison guards brought Dr Adnan Al-Bursh into the section in a deplorable state. He had clearly been assaulted with injuries around his body. He was naked in the lower part of his body.

 

"The prison guards threw him in the middle of the yard and left him there. Dr Adnan Al-Bursh was unable to stand up. One of the prisoners helped him and accompanied him to one of the rooms. A few minutes later, prisoners were heard screaming from the room they went into, declaring Dr Adnan Al-Bursh (was dead)."

From its Web site:

 

"CAMERA-UK (formerly UK Media Watch and BBC Watch) is the UK division of the US based Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), the 65,000 member media monitoring and research organization founded in 1982. CAMERA UK is dedicated to promoting fair, accurate and balanced coverage of Israel in the British media – challenging inaccurate, skewed and often inflammatory characterisations of Israel that mislead news consumers and policy makers – and often fuels anti-Jewish racism."  https://camera-uk.org/about-us/

 

I believe CAMERA-UK is funded through the U.S. "parent,"  which is a public charity with 501(c)3 status from the Internal Revenue Service.  It is funded through paid memberships and tax-deductible donations.

 That book has been de-bunked by equally respected professors and academics.

 

The former National Director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Abraham H. Foxman,  wrote a book called The Deadliest Lies: The Israel Lobby and the Myth of Jewish Control .  In the foreword, former U.S. Secretary of State George Shultz wrote:  "... the notion. U.S. policy on Israel and Middle East is the result of their influence is simply wrong."

Benny Morris,  considered a leading academic expert on the Israel-Palestine conflict and author of several books on the topic, wrote,  "Like many pro-Arab propagandists at work today, Mearsheimer and Walt often cite my own books, sometimes quoting directly from them, in apparent corroboration of their arguments. Yet their work is a travesty of the history that I have studied and written for the past two decades. Their work is riddled with shoddiness and defiled by mendacity."

Robert C. Lieberman (Columbia) wrote:  ""It is quite clear that the book’s argument does not support Mearsheimer and Walt’s central contention, that the existence and activities of an Israel lobby are the primary causes of American policy in the Middle East. The claim is supported neither by logic nor evidence nor even a rudimentary understanding of how the American policymaking system works"

Watchdog: Under 1% of Israel Army Probes Yield Prosecution

 

Between 2017 and 2021, the Israeli military received 1,260 cases of alleged offenses by Israeli soldiers against Palestinians, including 409 cases involving the killing of Palestinians, according to military data obtained by the group Yesh Din and released Wednesday after a freedom of information request.

 

The Israeli military opened 248 criminal investigations into instances of possible misconduct in response to those complaints — just 21.4% of the total, Yesh Din said. Only 11 investigations during that five-year period have yielded indictments. In those cases, Israel’s military prosecutors acted with leniency toward convicted soldiers, the group added, with those sentenced for killing Palestinians serving only short-term military community service.

I highly doubt that. There’s no way it’s legal to bomb a hospital when there’s innocent patients in there and the same goes for schools and kindergartens. 

 

If a hospital is used for military purposes, whether storing arms in tunnels; using tunnels as command centers or any other activity that facilitates military action, it loses its protected status under the rules of war.  As  @Nick Carter icp pointed out to you, if this weren't the case, belligerents could place artillery, rockets, etc in or on hospitals, schools, aprtment buildings, etc. and not fear counterattacks.

 

UN accused of downplaying Hamas terrorists' use of Gaza hospitals as new report ignores important details

An excerpt

"Bayefsky noted that Israel has "publicly exposed, with photographic and video evidence, the use of hospitals by Hamas for military purposes," including underground tunnels "that utilized the power sources and served as command centers and weapons depots; weapons and equipment on hospital floors alongside patient wards; weapons hidden in incubators; and the use of hospitals as operational facilities to direct military activity." 

 

This is the reality with which the IDF must contend in Gaza.
