The International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that Israel must halt military operations in Rafah. The court made the ruling after South Africa appealed to the court to take action as Israeli military operation in the southern region of Gaza has displaced nearly a million people and prevented aid deliveries. Tel Aviv said the court’s decision will not stop Israeli forces from achieving their objectives in Gaza.
On Friday, ICJ President Nawaf Salam announced the court had ruled 13-2 that Israel must halt military operations in Rafah, open border crossings to aid deliveries, and allow investigators into Gaza. The ruling came after oral argument from South Africa, who requested the ICJ order Tel Aviv to halt the offensive, and Israel.
Late last year, Pretoria initially filed accusations of genocide against Israel at the World Court. In January, the ICJ issued a preliminary ruling that it was plausible that Israel was committing a genocide against the people of Gaza but stopped short of ordering Israel to halt military operations in the Strip.
After Israel launched an assault on Rafah earlier this month, South Africa asked the court to issue an explicit ruling ordering Israel to halt the offensive. Prior to the court issuing the ruling, Israeli officials said they would not comply with any demand to halt the offensive.
The ICJ is the court for the UN. All members of the UN, including the US and Israel, are subject to its rulings. However, a government spokesperson told Reuters that “no power on earth” can stop the Israeli onslaught.
American officials also targeted the ICJ for its ruling. “As far as I’m concerned, the ICJ can go to hell. The ICJ’s ruling that Israel should stop operations that are necessary to destroy four battalions of Hamas killers and terrorists – who use Palestinians as human shields – is ridiculous. Senator Lindsey Graham posted on X. “This will and should be ignored by Israel.”
Tel Aviv has lost much of its international support as it has killed at least 35,000 Palestinians over the past seven months. During that period, the White House has sent Israel thousands of bombs and Congress approved another $17 billion in military aid for Tel Aviv.
The operations in Rafah have displaced nearly one million Palestinians. The assault also closed the Rafah border crossing, bringing aid deliveries into the Strip to a trickle. The lack of food has caused some agencies to curtail or end distributions, pushing the people of Gaza closer to famine.

It is becoming clearer everyday that the Netanyahu Israeli government does not respect any international law about genocide, ethnic cleansing and illegal occupation of part of Palestine. The ruling by the International Court of Justice is a major step in recognizing that fact.
The current Israeli government “has killed at least 35,000 Palestinians over the past seven months.“
During that period, the (Joe Biden) White House and its Neocons have sent Israel thousands of bombs and Congress approved another $17 billion in military aid for that country.
This depravity could mark a turning point in the influence of the US government in the world, in the coming decades. A genuine fiasco in foreign policy.
Sanctions on the Likud and IDF arriving soon.
None too soon.
They need to be destroyed, sanctions alone are not enough, the Zionists must go, Israel is a lawless terrorist nation.
Hamas rapists and sadist murderers must be destroyed.
Who got raped by Hamas
Yes, rape and sadism are bad things:
https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/war-gaza-un-experts-appalled-reports-rape-and-sexual-assault-palestinian-women-and-girls
And perpetrators of such horrendous crimes must be destroyed.
They are – 15,000 already liquidated.
Israel knows what it must do – with or without “international support”. Jews know how little the world matters when your people are being slaughtered.
The Hamas cowards can hide in their stinking spider holes, with their women and children as human shields, but the clock is ticking and they are dead men walking.
The Arabs have tried increasingly brutal approaches to destroy the spirit of the Israelis; it didn’t work in the Arab riots of the 1920s and 1930s, when the Arabs show a growing Zionist population, whose economy became larger than the Arab economy in Mandatory Palestine in the 1930s; it didn’t work in 1947, when they attacked to prevent the UN plan from giving the Jews a homeland. Israel and Israelis have just grown stronger, as the Arab world has grown weaker.
The options are giving up the Bin Laden fantasy of Arab domination, and work with the West; or continue the fantasy of Arab domination, as Hamas has done.
It doesn’t seem to be working.
Despite your obvious and irrational hatred, Israel will survive, despite make-believe “International Courts”.
10 years from now, Israel will be stronger, Hamas will be dust.
I hate the Zionist administrations for what they have turned Israeli society into. Blessed are those Israelis with a moral compass.
Do you approve of genocide? If Israel has notbing to hide it will comply with ICJ order to allow full unimpeded access to Gaza to the investigative organs of the Court and other UN investigation. ICJ based its decision on tbe facts on tbe ground. Over 800,000 people have been odered to mive by Israel from Rafah. This forced displacemet into areas not suitable for humsn habitation — no shelter, sanitation, water, food or medical assistance.
Invoking Genocide Convention fiive times in the Court’s ruling, is based on the fact that multiple previous warnings were given, and dituation worsened to “catastrophic”.
Israel is ordered to cease all military and any other activity. Rafah crossing to be reopened for aid “in scale”.
Protestations notwithsranding, Israel must think hard about this ruling. As for Lindsey Graham, his unhinged behaviou as of late cannot be taken seriously. Israel will have to make some hard decisions. ICJ – unlike ICC cannot be ignored. It does not make its decisions on the basis of political favoritism.
Israel actually has an opportunity now to engage with the global community. As it stands now it has support only from its fellow Western colonial nations and fellow supremacists. I doubt Israel will take a hint, as it is so close to fulfilling its mission – getting rid of Palestinians of ovcupied Gaza territory. Tantalizingly close.
But there may be a price to pay, Its reputation tarnished for a few generstikns. It is facing UN proceedings, much of it will end up un UN SC and/or General Assembly. US will on ever thinner ice. Defending genocide. There have been recently good precedents in UN Genmneral Assembly that could lead to serious consequences.
A Zionist is someone who believes in a homeland for the Jews. So, I would assume nearly every Jew in Israel is a Zionist.
But if you feel that the Israeli government acted in an unethical fashion in response to the murder of 1,300 of their citizens – tell me, what would be the appropriate response? Should they have filed a complaint with Hamas? Please tell me the ethical response to mass murder.
Or if men broke into your house, killed your grandparents and parents, kidnapped your sister, and killed your children – how would you respond? A stern letter to the NY Times?
Just under 1,200, not 1,300. That number includes a couple hundred IDF Soldiers as well. https://www.timesofisrael.com/14-kids-under-10-25-people-over-80-up-to-date-breakdown-of-oct-7-victims-we-know-about/
When terrorists murdered close to 3,000 US citizens (none of whom were keeping several million people in an open air prison) I don’t remember the US slaughtering thousands women and children in 7 months. Go try your Hasbara on people dumb enough to believe it. You are wasting your time here
I remember people saying similar things about a country called Rhodesia. . .
The attempt at a parallel is incorrect on many levels.
1. Rhodesia was a former colony that was a country from 1965 to 1979. However, the UN called for states not to recognize it. Israel is a recognized member of the UN since 1948.
2. While Rhodesia has various indigenous (Black African) populations and a colonial European population, the same is not true for Israel. Even Gaza and the West Bank had centuries of Jewish history (until they were ethnically cleansed and the areas became Jew free) and Jerusalem has had a Jewish majority since the 1850s. So, suggesting this is a colonial war vs. an indigenous population is not accurate, especially as there the indigenous people were Jews, until they were driven out. The Arabs did not conquer Jerusalem until much later, and the original Arabs were not Palestinians, who historically never had a nation.
A separate Palestinian identity in Mandatory Palestine only started to manifest in the 1920s-1930s, as the Jewish population grew in response to anti-Jewish restrictions being lifted that existed under Muslim empires.
So, the “colonizers” were the Arabs and the Turks, who were not original people.
Incorrect analogies and artificial history do not make good arguments.
The Rhodesians would disagree with you https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1979/04/15/israel-and-rhodesia-a-double-standard/26a58d86-6303-422c-99cc-eb0936f17737/
But give it another 50 years and we will see who’s right.
By what, who? The U.S. of Atrocities supports everything the Zionists are doing and want to achieve.
By thd other 87% of the globe
Sanctions on the Likud and IDF arriving soon.
Well, Karim Kahn disclosed in the most clear terms possible what Western governments think of international law and how much respect they have for it:
“Of course, I have heard some elected leaders speak to me and be very blunt: ‘This court is built for Africa and for thugs like Putin’, was what a senior leader told me.”
The Biden government made absolutely clear, beyond any possible doubt, they think exactly the same as whoever that ‘senior leader’ was. Not surprising very much, since exactly no one on planet Earth was ever under the impression this senior bigot confiding in Kahn his most honestly held convictions represented an exception to the rule.
For most of the world this rises hardly above the level of self-evident facts about how the world is. But as Westerners we grew accostumed to the expectation that our leaders would conform to some form of political etiquette that urged them to have the good taste of spending considerable effort to try to obfuscate the obvious. This reassured us that at least they understood why they should be ashamed of what they’re doing and would effectively give us some confidence there were bounds to what crimes they were prepared to commit. This is no more the case. Here Western government representatives now proudly declare themselves to be warcriminals, either in effect or directly. In fact there seems to be competition among them who is able to do this in the most egregious and offensive way.
Sort of like how American courts are built for black people and whites who step out of line. And certainly not for the ruling elite no matter what laws or constitutional provisions they flaunt.
Meanwhile, a very rich former president is being targeted for selective prosecution,denying the public their freedom of choice.
That’s funny. As if the money flowing to the “R’s” and “D’s” gives the public an actual choice.
Correct. There is only the uniparty. It works for the donor class and AIPAC.
Many ARE choosing Mr. Trump, who is NOT very rich, having to grovel for money from his “fans” to pay his legal fees. When will he pay E. Jean Carroll? He selected HIMSELF with his self destructive ways, complimented by extreme narcissism.
He stepped out of line
Zionist-Neocons USA/ISRAEL is a wrecking ball. They are governed by evil people who destroy democracies around the world. Together they left a trail of blood and tears in the ME and Africa.
That’s a great bumper sticker if you live in Tehran or Moscow.
In the case of Israel, they offered to leave Gaza alone. They left in 2005; then Iran-support Hamas took over and illegally occupied it. Israel let Hamas get billions in aid – enough to build a viable society. Instead, they channeled billions into a death machine, secretly working for years for a brutal attack on Israeli civilians, murdering as many as possible, in deliberately cruel and sadistic manner.
So – you are blaming the country that tried peace, but got rape, torture, and butchered children and babies in return.
In other words, you are wrong.
“In the case of Israel, they offered to leave Gaza alone. They left in 2005;”
“There is also the popular trope that Israel benevolently ended its occupation of Gaza in 2005 only to come under repeated attack by Hamas. But while Israel withdrew military forces and settlers from Gaza, it has remained an Occupying Power by virtue of its continued control of the strip. Nothing and nobody go into or out of Gaza without Israel’s permission. Gaza remains, as it was described in 2004 by Head of Israel’s National Security Council Giora Eiland, “a huge concentration camp.”
Plus this:
In 2004, Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin announced a shift in policy by stating the group’s willingness to accept a Palestinian state alongside Israel within the pre-1967 boundaries, with a long-term truce to establish mutual intent. Israel responded by assassinating him.
https://www.nytimes.com/2004/03/22/world/leader-of-hamas-killed-by-missile-in-israeli-strike.html#
“Hamas took over and illegally occupied it.”
The fundamental cause is, of course, well known. Israel, aided by the US, was not prepared to accept Hamas’s victory in last year’s Palestinian elections. Backed by a supine EU, the two governments decided to boycott their new Palestinian counterparts politically and punish Palestinian voters by blocking economic aid. Their policies had a dramatic effect, turning Gaza even more starkly into an open prison and creating human misery on a massive scale. The aim was to turn voters against Hamas – a strategy of stupidity as well as cynicism, since outside pressure usually produces resistance rather than surrender.
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2007/jun/22/israel.comment
You cut and pasted these several times. See my earlier debunking.
You didn’t debunk anything. You ignored them and repeated yourself. That’s why I keep posting them.
And, when there was a fair and free election in 2006 (President Carter was there and deemed the election fair), won by the political arm of Hamas (which campaigned at the insistence of the U.S.), the reaction was to impose a brutal blockade that has lasted to this day. Settlers returned. In force, now numbering 700,000 in the West Bank. Through the years the IDF has committed atrocities upon the Palestinias, bulldozed down homes , and, murdered an American, Rachel Corried, with a bulldozer. There have been pogroms against the Palestinians, night raids, children “detained” in Israeli jails, tortured by their jailers. On and on it goes.
Actually, your description is flawed.
1. There was an election, but it was a local one.
2. The PA contested the election and removed Hamas.
3. Hamas declared war on the PA, staged a coup, killed PA people in Gaza, and has illegally occupied Gaza ever since. The legal government is the PA; Hamas is not a legal government and has no right to control Gaza. It would be as if the Southern Republicans claimed the South as their own country. They tried that once; it didn’t work out.
4. After the bloody coup, Hamas said they would destroy Israel. Israel and Egypt – which is at war with the Muslim Brotherhood, to which Hamas belongs – both closed their borders (as is the right of any sovereign nation that feels threatened).
5. Israel and the PA made accords to address the land in the West Bank, which technically does not belong to anyone. It was a territory of the Ottoman empire, then part of the British empire, than it was claimed by Jordan, but Jordan gave up its claim.
6. As for the rest of your issues…are you as concerned about the brutal treatment of people by the PA, by Hamas, by the Assad regime in Syria, by Sisi in Egypt, by the Saudis in Yemen, by the Iranians in Iran, or the warlords in Somalia and Libya – or are the only people in the Middle East you care about the Israelis?
Peace? The Israeli Zionists have refused every peace offering. There was no “rape, torture, butchered children and babies” on 7Oct. That has been debunked. Max Blumenthal on The Grayzone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWbXVjlsb-k
False.
1. The Israelis left Gaza alone, except when Hamas was killing or trying to kill their people. Israel had no desire to conquer the area, and is peaceful with peaceful neighbors (Jordan, Egypt).
Hamas is dedicated to one thing – killing Israelis and destroying Israel, which they claim belongs entirely to them.
2. There were some early reports from non-specialists that interpreted the evidence; some reports have been modified; but this is not “debunking”. It is clarifying. You have to deny reality to believe this. Learn the facts, which are clear, based on live streaming from Hamas. Covering up these grotesque crimes is a crime in itself. Israel has no motive for lying; no one believes them anyway, or thinks they deserve “whatever they got”. However, Hamas has been lying non-stop, since they occupied Gaza (they are not a legal government and only won local elections, before grabbing the territory).
1. Israel controlled everything that went in or out. Keeping on saying they left Gaza alone won’t make it any truer.
2. Israel gave a presentation to handpicked reporters about Hamas’ atrocities which included “40 beheaded babies”. When in fact there were two infants killed on Oct 7th. Fortunately, there was a Gaurdian reporter there who didn’t buy into the bullsh*t. Biden even claimed to have seen the photos of the beheaded babies. In reality, it is Israel that has dwarfed anything Hamas could even hope to accomplish terrorism wise.
You are nuts.
We’re not buying your Hasbara bro. And your IDF isn’t doing so well on the military front either. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLZP_LgGQLI&t=28s
This is wxactly what ICC was set up for . Picking up from where kangaroo courts fo former Yugoslavia and Rwanda left off — it’s comfy political existence was crowned by the spectacularly ridiculous case against Putin.
And than — Gaza happened. The Court for Africans, and honored to be in this category -/ Serbs or Russians — suddenly had the eyes of the world on it. So, throw Netanyahu and Galant under the bus to rescue its tragicomical reputation.
But ICJ is a very, very different path. The future of UN as we know it is at stake. WWIII seems to be desired by Israel, as it does not know how to stop in the pursuit of illusory gosls. Israel’s obstinacy may have its limitations as the usually most reliable pro-Israel constituency in US may be changing.
Nemesis is on thr march as Israeldkubles down on murdering civilians.
what has the ICJ done about the Ukraine war?-NADA
The Russians are not committing a genocide. They are at war against the entire NATO sphere via an entirely expendable proxy. The Israeli are committing a genocide. They are at war against a defenseless people half of which are children with the entire NATO sphere. The Russians went out of their way to save the children of their enemy from the consequences of war. The Israeli consider the children the enemy and target them for extinction.
See the difference?
Ask the people of the Ukraine,as their children are taken away for Russification,and their cities pounded flat.
My greatest weakness, one that I just never have been able to overcome and that will probably trouble me until the day I die, is that I am just unable to be cynical enough.
So I will concede that you might very well be right. But then nevertheless I think under the bus is an appropriate place for these warcriminals, provided the vehicle in question has a really low suspension.
The Neocon-Zionist cabal are the grave diggers of the US HEGEMONY. It could not happen to nicer people.
To be fair, Congress and the palace eunuchs who run the federal agencies routinely ignore US law and the American Constitution, so why would anyone think they would obey international law or treaties? The only language they speak or understand is raw naked violence
1. The International Court of Justice pretends to be an international court. It’s not.
2. The number of deaths in Gaza is clearly exaggerated and just another lie used by Hamas to support their unjust cause.
3. The US supports its allies, especially when a militant group on its border:
1) Promises to kill as many Israelis as they can;
2) Kills as many Israelis as they can.
Any country that does not help its allies soon has none. The world isn’t a very nice place without allies.
The problem with US influence – as those on the left learned in WWII – is that there are much, much worse people out there.
Hamas are bad people. So are the Iranians, who back them. So are the Russians, who back them. The world would be a much darker, crueler world without US “influence” – as imperfect and inept as it sometimes is. We learned that in the 1930s-1940s, but some seem to have forgotten.
Pro-tip, numbering your unsupported assertions doesn’t make them any more believable. Also Hasbara only works on dumb people; go to mainstream media outlets if you want to convince anyone. You’re welcome.
For all the civilians they’ve killed, they don’t seem to have done a very good job eliminating Hamas in Northern Gaza, what makes them think they’ll do better in Rafah? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLZP_LgGQLI&t=28s
When will they stop Biden, Graham, Blinken, Sullivan etc?
And replace them with whom? All they have is more evil people by other names.
American officials also targeted the ICJ for its ruling. “As far as I’m concerned, the ICJ can go to hell. The ICJ’s ruling that Israel should stop operations that are necessary to destroy four battalions of Hamas killers and terrorists – who use Palestinians as human shields – is ridiculous. Senator Lindsey Graham posted on X. “This will and should be ignored by Israel.”
Once more with the “human shield” excuse. These clowns, for some reason, just can’t understand that it takes two to tango. Admitting that you think killing people because they are being used as human shields is justified makes you as sick as those who are willing to use people as human shields.
If Hamas would actually use Palestinians as human shields like the Israeli, Lindsey Graham, would thank Hamas on their knees for offering them the convenience to kill more Palestinians more easily. Or let others do it for his pleasure as Lindsey Graham is more likely to do.
But indeed that human shields trope is just sheer nonsense like every other sound that emenates from the putrid snout of the most equal pig of South Carolina.
I won’t argue the point of whether Hamas uses human shields or not because it doesn’t matter. It still takes a sick fuck to pull the trigger/drop the bombs/create a famine on those human shields.
The IDF use Palestinians as human shields. They bomb women and children because they protect their IDF cowards to really fight on the ground.
Which is just what Hamas is doing-slaughtering peaceful civilians,and then hiding among the Gaza population.
And in comparison, Israel is making them look like choir girls. But they are peerless when it comes to terrorism.
They don’t call him “Senator Genocide” for nothing.
The US government’s hostility towards the ICJ is one more page in the descent of the empire. It’s all about power for the US government, It’s not about Justice at all.
Since the days of Joe Hill.
Graham is a hypocrite liar. His statement could be applied to any resistance movement, any nation fighting invading forces, and any liberation group. The powerful occupiers and invading forces want their victims to give up and abandon their fight against them and accept their misfortunes. The south could have ended the civil war much earlier and spared the people in south death and destruction. The Ukraine could do same. Might will never make right. The mantra of use human shield is total falsehood used by oppressors to absolve themselves of their crimes.
Graham is just too stupid to know that his lies are not even plausible. He is one of the biggest pieces of turd in the US 100 seat senate and they are all big pieces.
Don’t let the door hit you too in the ass, as you leave folks, just let these good folks get they’re lives back in order.
And I want a date with Margo Robbie. Let’s see who gets what they want first.
When Margo Robbie is the hottest thing since, ever.
Unless I’m misreading your intent, you have zero taste.
There are people who find AOC to be hot. In their mind, I too have zero taste.
ICJ and what army?
The economic army of the u.n. states. The Israelis are going to start to freak out when their economy gets boycotted, when they can’t travel, when the majority of the world condemns you. I suspect Netanyahu will be the fall guy and take the blame, but the Zionists have gone too far and need to be brought to justice for peace to work.
Contemplate the IDF & Likud being designated as a joint criminal enterprise.
Then Contemplate the implications of a travel ban and asset freeze on all IDF. Essentially the entire Adult citizenry would be sanctioned.
At the rate the Likud Gov’t is going this outcome is becoming more and more likely.
They think they don’t need the rest of the world’s support, that they are superior in all ways. It should be interesting to see them handle the world’s scorn, theyve been protected from any condemnation for 75yrs…not anymore.
Short of a military intervention, none of these countries will have any economic impact.
I guess we will see what happens. Israel has obviously escalated their attacks, which makes a very clear statement to the world…we will commit genocide and if you try to stop us we will increae the level of genocide. It makes israel look really bad, Netanyahu and his cabal don’t care, but the rest of the Israelis might be unhappy in isolation and being seen as war criminals everywhere they go.
hunting down Hamas terrorists,always gooood.
You forgot to deny the genocide before you condoned the genocide. Lucky you’re an unpaid troll. Otherwise, some shekels might have been withheld.
You omitted a raging Zionist.
😉
They’re not hunting down Hamas fighters. I mean there might perish a Hamas fighter here and there as a bycatch when the Israel go after their main target, which as the actual numbers point out are Palestinian children.
Also Hamas aren’t terrorists. They are partly a civil administration and partly a liberation organization fighting an unprecendently brutal oppression of an almost solipsistic Jewish supremacist Apartheid state gone insane.
Meanwhile, there is a nasty chance Russia will go nuclear in the Ukraine,but no one says boo.
Israel is vindictive evil:
Maha Hussaini @MahaGaza
th
A few hours after the Int’l Court of Justice’s order for Israel to halt its offensive on Rafah:
• Unprecedented Israeli airstrikes on Rafah targeting civilian neighborhoods
• Israeli forces target every moving thing approaching the center of Rafah, including ambulances. #Gaza
Which will be blamed on the ICJ by a parade of tools like Graham.
For the genocide deniers, this viscous and indiscriminate reaction to the icj ruling, really shows who isrsel really is and what they are doing. Genocide has never been so clearly seen in the world, even the nazis hid their genocidal deeds, but not these unappologetic Zionists…war criminals of this type should go to the firing squad. Scum of the earth.
We don’t want martyrs. Toss them in a high security dungeon like Gitmo.
Hamas baby burners are the scum of the earth.
If the criterion to scum of the earth is the killing of babies, the IDF is with an undefeatable distance and undefatigable genocidal fanaticism the world’s champion. When it comes to the killing, burning, maiming, torturing, raping of children Israel leaves the entire world behind with ease.
A word like scum to describe the IDF is hopelessly inadequate. Perhaps Zionist might be the worst word possible.
don’t start a fight and then cray about it.
From Israel’s own data:
Partial data by Hebrew media covering the civilians — killed by thousands of invading terrorists and by some of the thousands of rockets fired that day at Israeli cities — reveals that they include two infants
One of them was a baby under the age of one year — 10-month-old Mila Cohen, killed with her father and grandmother.
According to data by Haaretz, a Bedouin woman at the tail end of her pregnancy was shot in the abdomen while heading to the hospital to give birth, where doctors delivered the baby, but failed to save it.
Pathetic. Israel burned the babies with attack helicopters. Your proganda is outdated and discredited.
LOOK WHO IS TRASHING THE RULES BASED ORDER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY ARE NAZIS IN ALL BUT NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!
The “ruling” is meaningless chatter.
Yes, Israel wants to survive. They will destroy the army that attacked them and slaughtered 1,300 of its people in a few hours. Men, women, children, babies. Women raped, bodies mutilated.
What would you suggest they do? Write a stern letter to the NY Times, expressing their hurt feelings? Or ask the UN to intercede? No, they will liquidate the people whose only aim is to kill them. No country, no people would do less.
How about Hamas surrendering, given up war, and releasing all hostages? Is that even an option to you? That would have ended the war immediately.
Saying that the Israelis are “worse than the Nazis” is both ignorant and childish. The Nazis were led by an insane man with bizarre racial theories who started a war that caused 70 million deaths.
The Israelis are engaged in a war of self-defense that they have no reason to fight except to destroy an enemy army. The exact number of deaths is unknown, but the source (Hamas) is a notorious liar, and its estimates have been disproven.
The Nazis targeted Jews and killed 90% of European Jews – 6 million men, women, and children. Meanwhile, in Israel, Israeli Arabs enjoy more rights, freedoms, and education than in any Arab nation. Israeli Arabs have the longest life expectancy in the Arab World. In fact, Israeli Arabs enjoy better rights and health than African Americans in the United States. In some parts of America (Chicago), there is a 30 year difference in life expectancy between White and Black neighbors (90 years Gold Coast vs 60 years South Side). So – maybe you need to focus on your own country before lecturing others.
I know, that would require some hard work – and even loss of privilege – so never mind.
Your respose is invalid it stsrts with multiple lies that have all been thouroughly discredited. Therefore nothing you say is valid.
“Multiple lies”? Either show the “multiple lies” or apologize for being rude. Nothing has been “thouroughly (sic) discredited”.
Also, you have failed to answer the question: based on the murder of Israeli civilians, what is the appropriate response? What should Israelis do?
You also didn’t tell me what you are dong about the situation of African Americans, who have a lower life expectancy than Israeli Arabs. Hand waving (as you did) is not an argument. This isn’t a Harvard or Columbia classroom.
Yea, lies. How many killed by the idf on oct 7? The so called rapes and beheaded babies are false, nyt appologized. The whole founding of israel was a lie based on ethnic cleansing and force.
How to get along? End the illegal occupation, the illegal settlements, the brutal dehumanization and oppression of your neighbors. You ve denied Palestine for too long, taken everything and now are exterminating civilins in the thousands.
Netanyahu is also nuts like hitler, wants to take over all his neighbors lands and has a propaganda wing second to none. Also, the nazi’s also at one time had killed only 40 000 jews…unfortunately nobody stopped him. Netanyahu is just getting started nd could eadily stsrt ww3, leading to milions dead and possible mutual destruction. He hasnt gone as far as hitler yet, but just give Netanyahu more time and he’ll get there.
Free Palestine and stop the genoocide!
“vindictive”
Just like after the first ICJ ruling – when, on the same day of the ruling, Israel peddled its bogus unrwa charges – with US rubber stamping, causing massive humanitarian aid cut off.
Yes. Good point.
Biden is a very vindictive man, he showed how viscous he is in Afghanistan and Syria, he kicks the victims when they are down. He is really a very nasty loser.
There shouldn’t even be an UNRWA.
The UN and Arab states have create a fiction of “refugees”.
A refugee is someone who flees a country – not their grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
UNRWA is a farce.
Biden and his cabal are as vindictive, viscous people equal to the Zionist Israelis.
Lol, far more than enough power on earth exists to stop the Israeli onslaught. The gov official & Lindsay’s hyperbolizing histrionics are laughable reflecting, as they do, the reality the US no longer wields the predominance of that power. Publicly bested by the courage, tenacity and legal minds of the melanin-endowed South African government must be a near unbearable trauma for our western supremacists.
So lay in the popcorn and your favorite libation folks, we’ve got quite the ways to go as the generation that lost the American Empire works through whatever grieving process personality-disordered psychopaths go through 🙂
Destroy Gaza…. and kill defenseless Palestinians…! They are proud of doing that… But, they certainly CANNOT destroy Hamas…!
But they can send a messase that if you fork with us,we will fork with you worse.
This is called euphemistically ‘escalation dominance’. Write it down, because that is the main reason for the demise of Israel.
Censored Men

🇮🇱 Many Zionists will be celebrating the “founding” of Israel today.
Show them this video.
Tell them to listen to the “founders” of Israel:
“He grabbed a woman, young and good looking, went into a house, prepared a bedroom and wanted to fu** her.”
“The girl came back half dead, like a rag.”
“One guy raped there a sixteen year old girl or something of the sort.” *he says while smiling.*
“Some guys took flamethrowers and ran after people and incinerated them.”
No power on Earth? How about a nice small asteroid?
When we get down to the basics, with regards to all of this business going on, one really has to wonder why God’s chosen people can behave in such ways. It would seem to me they should know better…
The problem is, when you call yourself God’s chosen, it doesn’t mean you are. Case in point, Hitler and his master race diatribe.
Most people in Israel and anywhere else don’t believe that. Virtually no one practices biblical religion anyway.
Most evangelicals and Israeli rabbis will disagree with your narrow point of view.
Vehemently.
How many Israeli Rabbis have you spoken to? how many Israelis?. There are no animal sacrifices,no sanctuary cities for manslaughter, no brother is expected to father a child on his brothers widow.
Because they have been battered by so called Christian love for too long.
Ya know Jake, that is a tad too arrogant to me. They killed Christ. I only worship Christ, like any good Christian person.
Let us hear it plain and simple-Who killed Christ?-let us hear it.
Why do Christians behave in such un Christian fashions?
Every time Israel goes on a killing spree, they get rewarded with more weapons and cash.
do you relly think Israel enjoys getting missiles fired onto its towns,its people slaughtered,its young people sent off to be maimed and die ina war,or the 80 million hating fanatics to its east?
You’re describing what Israel is DOING, not what is being done to them. And compare the 80 million fanatics to the east with the superpower to the west supplying the billions worth of state-of-the-art weaponry and their auto veto at the UN. There is none.

Comment – flooding tiny Gaza with 10 brigades of poorly trained and horribly led soldiers has been a horrible failure of the Likud. It’s a veritable turkey shoot for the Arabs. Tally of Merkavas claimed knocked out is now 191.
Then,since you are a great strategic warrior-go over there and lead them.
These are just the hard facts Jake.
Blame the Likud for the thousands of unnecessary Israeli deaths.
Could Israelis have been wiser-absolutely.don’t displace anyone. Is Hamas responsible for 35,000 deaths-absolutely-don’t rape and murder.
Jake – are you telling us it is a deliberate policy of the Likud to kill women and children in order to blackmail Al-Qassem and Al-Quds brigades ?
Clearly, the ICC can achieve the same accuracy as the proverbial stopped clock. Does that matter? I’m not holding my breath. It’s just better than nothing.
