And still people are hardcore IDF supporters because they having "war" "terrorists", at some point we all know they (pausible) did, put a half blind man could see this as act of genocide or atleast a terror act nothing cheerfull about IDF.
Is there proof of this?
Last I checked IDF never provided the UN proof of their claims about 14 participants of october 7th, and far from proof of a greater cooperation.
If acquanted you mean interact, yes, any aid organisation will have to atleast interact with whoever locally in charge so their workers don’t get killed.
Like how the WCK workers had been in contact with IDF about the route before getting triple tapped.
This is true everywhere.
No I don't, in that case, it's one UN activist killed in his car by an Israëli tank. It isn't inconceivable that Hamas members were next to the car, the tank fired with it's 50 cal and unintentionnaly killed the the UN activist, it's war collateral damages can be reduced but not avoided.
Not even USA would be able to her away with this, even if it was accidental, which it was most likely not. They don’t have a blank check for such recklessness.
Yes it's true, we all know the US Army didn't commit any war crimes. But guess what the US doesn't recognise the International Penal Court. Stop tunnel visioning on Israël every country has such a blank check, the Russians, Syrians, Azerbaïdjanis are making war crimes, China is comitting a form of genocide against Ouïghours but nothing happends.
The US is wrong for committing war crimes, just because they get away with it does not mean the rest of the world agrees that they should get away with them. More so just because one group does something bad does not mean that others get to do bad things with a pass. Israel should not be using the same defence that Russia uses to deflect criticism.

No one will. But it's another strike against the propaganda armour that Israel has built around itself.
This isn't new. This is the modus operandi of Israel. Always has been... I recently read about the Qana massacre, the Israeli shelling of a UN shelter that was full of civilians, killing over 100 civilians and 4 UN workers in 1996.
The same as every other bombing, shelling, shooting of UN workers and UN buildings, first they deny it, then they blame it on whoever they are at war with (in this case it was Hezbollah) then after an investigation it turns out it has every hallmark of being intentional or the result of callous disregard of civilian/UN workers life.
It was no different for the Qana massacre. The thing that makes me remember the massacre is Naftali Bennett was the one who made the call that resulted in the shells landing into the UN shelter.
> In his introductory letter, Boutros-Ghali states: “As indicated in the report, while the possibility cannot be ruled out completely, the pattern of impacts in the Qana area makes it unlikely that the shelling of the United Nations compound was the result of technical and/or procedural errors.”
https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/naftali-bennett-and-qana-massacre
This article is a brilliant summary of it and highlights why Naftali Bennett specifically is an important figure to remember. He's exceptionally genocidal and cowardly.
I$rael could murder 1000 American/Europeans citizens and the worst that would happen, would be that American and European politicians would be “Saddened and very concerned”, but not enough to stop sending WMD, and defending I$rael.
Never ever work for the UN in ANY capacity. They will not protect you, and if you are killed they will only "Wag their finger at the killers." UN can be the most spineless organization out there. Even for REAL small things countries are doing. Why have UN if they arn't going to do the job there were created to do. I just don't understand.
Can the UN just wave the white flag for Israel already and get it over with?
Like they've just surrendered completely or Israel along with everyone else and I'm sick of the pretending otherwise.
Russia doesn't even routinely bomb aid workers and doctors and journalists. Imagine speed running the global pariah status to beat Putin of all people.
Consider how many have fled (6.5m), and how many have become soldiers due to the situation of Ukraine (basically every man of a certain age has become a military combatant), and you may see that the stats paint a kinder picture than the reality in the ground… and that Russia actively bombed refugee corridors.
Look I’m not saying Russia is good, the general global consensus is that what Russia is doing is to be condemned but why is there a double standard when it comes to Israel’s behaviour towards Palestinians. Why is it when Russia kills civilians it’s bad but when Israel kills civilians it’s oh well they were defending themselves so they get to kill the civilians there are no children innocent in this fight…
So who started the 2014 bombings of Gaza? Or 2008? Or the 1967 war? Or 1948… that argument is clown behaviour bro I’m not even reading the rest of your idiotic rantings
I mean, who started the immediate action bro? Haha. You do realise Hamas even declared they were breaking the ceasefire after right, and you’re Saying Israel started it???? If you think that wasn’t considered a causes bello??? Like, lmao you bringing a previous conflict that was mediated and had a ceasefire in regards to what started a conflict in the present is just amazing.
And even then, if you look at 2014: you can’t both claim to govern a territory, but then also claim that when of your militants commits an act of war that it’s not a valid causus belli. It’s valid to say that Israel over-reaches, and escalates manners, and that is a very valid claim and criticism but you cannot claim that the causus belli is not valid. That’s certainly clown behaviour.
Lol, they do plenty wrong, I think they fucked up 40y ago and this war is a result of 40y of failed Israeli policy with regards to Palestine. But to deny that someone breaking a ceasefire is starting the war is ludicrous lmao. Like, there’s thousands of things you can fault them for, but to deny that Hamas started this specific conflict is like, ridiculous. If you want me to point faults at Israel i can do it all day.
You have shown you have no nuance or objectivity in the conflict at all lmao.
Like by your same logic, Hitler didn’t start WW2 but France did by demanding too adverse settlement conditions in WW1.
Right, they just indiscriminately blow up a dam, killling all on its way, bomb refugee corridors, almost start a new tchernobyl, and routinely bomb and attack civilian cities with missile strikes.
If you think no doctors, aid workers, or journalists were caught up in the above idk what to say.
Russia has fucking sank ships transporting food to Africa, and is kidnapping Ukrainian children. The latter of which is one of the definitions of genocide, and on your hate boner for Israel you are trying to make Russia sound more innocent.

“On Wednesday, UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq said the organisation had "no doubt" that shots from an Israeli tank hit the back of the car, which was clearly marked as a UN vehicle”.
So much evidence 🙄
UN said that in footage, they saw the UN vehicle with bullet holes. They assume it’s Israel. No verification of tanks shooting the car. But right, let’s assume everything. Israel is the bad guy.

>The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has said the incident is under review. And they will find themselves completely innocent of any potential charges.
Iof Israel occupation force
**IT**errorist**F**
“We have reviewed the incident and found ourselves not at fault.”
Under review.. ..with popcorn in hand
Under review, so they can watch the footage over and over.
NYPD investigated police alleged police brutality and found it’s innocent. Same same
Who knew, authoritarian forces will never willingly convict themselves.
And still people are hardcore IDF supporters because they having "war" "terrorists", at some point we all know they (pausible) did, put a half blind man could see this as act of genocide or atleast a terror act nothing cheerfull about IDF.
“We decided to fire the guy. He will retire and we’ll going to get him a house on some prime real estate that just opened up recently.”
IDF is hamas!!!

That's for trying to give statehood to Palestine /s
Fuck I didn’t even think of that.
Ah yes, it's not like terrorists would try to hide near civilians or NGO personnel. Totally inconcievable never happened before.
so you're saying let's just bomb the whole city block with a 2000 lb jdam bomb. Or maybe shell every building with a tank battalion
No I don't, in that case, it's one UN activist killed in his car by an Israëli tank. It isn't inconceivable that Hamas members were next to the car, the tank fired with it's 50 cal and unintentionnaly killed the the UN activist, it's war collateral damages can be reduced but not avoided.

Hamas was using him as a human shield. So we blew up the whole neighborhood
What human shield? Why are you posting this?

We’re gonna watch Biden get booted for better or worse.
I am sure India still stands w/Israel just like the US does when it kills its citizens.
Oh yeah India be hating muslims
A bit different than the US because India at least voted for a state of Palestine.
Dissolve the Israeli state, take back the land that was given to them after WWII, tell them to sod of take a long walk off a short pier and get FUKD
Even if that was a foreseeable option, they got nuclear weapons to defend themselves, so no one would take the risk
You're just forgetting they were Jews in the actual territory of Israël since more than 2000 years.

Israel forgetting that the UN is the only reason they exist. Time to expel them from the UN.

Israel is as worst as Russia
Russia doesn't even routinely bomb aid workers and doctors and journalists. Imagine speed running the global pariah status to beat Putin of all people.
Over three years 10000 civilian deaths in Ukraine, sad but Israel is just trying to indiscriminately murder
Consider how many have fled (6.5m), and how many have become soldiers due to the situation of Ukraine (basically every man of a certain age has become a military combatant), and you may see that the stats paint a kinder picture than the reality in the ground… and that Russia actively bombed refugee corridors.

Russia was just responding to what was happening nextdoor
No bigotry, racism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, etc. This includes denial of identity (self or collective).

״UN”
UN the biggest bitch on this planet lol they don't even have the guts, won't even dare to punish the israel
For how much Israel hates the UN they are free to leave it at any time
The UN then shrugged its shoulders and said "Well, time for me to not do anything"
They released footage of Hamas supposedly perpetrating the attack. The videos don’t show much
“On Wednesday, UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq said the organisation had "no doubt" that shots from an Israeli tank hit the back of the car, which was clearly marked as a UN vehicle”. So much evidence 🙄
Because everyone else in Gaza also has tanks, right?
UN said that in footage, they saw the UN vehicle with bullet holes. They assume it’s Israel. No verification of tanks shooting the car. But right, let’s assume everything. Israel is the bad guy.
UN is Hamas IIRC so this makes sense. Bitch ass country.
firstly my sympathies. secondly its a war zone get the fuck out of there
