    Israel sounds like a little kid saying, “I’m going to flail my arms around and around and walk around the house, and if I hit you it’s not my fault. I’m just flailing my arms around with my eyes closed.”

      “And also I’m specifically going to flail my arms where I told you to move out of my way.” Whatever side of the issue people are on, there is clear evidence the IDF are murderers, they are slaughtering as many Palestinians they can while they think they can get away with it.

      Eh. More like rich adults who know they can get away with anything because they have their entire lives.

    This is proving to be much more efficient and faster than going door to door in Palestine and dragging them out one at a time.

    War crimes are war crimes and those committing them should be held accountable regardless of affiliation, identity etc.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Noting criticism of Israel’s order for the entire population of northern Gaza to evacuate south, as well as scrutiny of some of the country’s response to Hamas’ unprecedented attack one week ago, the officer, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said: “Seeing the people hating us, they’re just … using their strength for nothing.”

    A tweet from Blinken’s account was deleted the day after the Hamas attacks, and changed from saying he encouraged Turkey’s “advocacy for a cease-fire,” in a call with Foreign Minister Fidan to saying, “Israel has a right to defend itself, rescue any hostages, and protect its citizens.”

    “It is unacceptable and unlawful for a civilian to ever bring a firearm to a rally or protest, and especially important for elected officials to model a respect for the law that is expected of all New Yorkers," New York City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams said in a statement.

    Amnesty International’s weapons investigator agreed with Human Rights Watch’s assessment in an emailed statement and said that his team had verified that white phosphorus munitions were spotted on Israeli planes that were conducting air attacks.

    Speaking during a news conference in Doha, Qatar, Blinken said the U.S. was engaged with Israel, as well as working with other countries on that process, adding he thought it was the best way to make sure civilians caught in the “crossfire of Hamas” can “be safe and receive the assistance they need.”

    Blinken “underscored that Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people’s right to dignity and self-determination and discussed ways to address the humanitarian needs of civilians in Gaza while Israel conducts legitimate security operations to defend itself from terrorists,” it said.
