    If you’re going to go that BS route then own up to the fact that Palestine et al started the conflict within a week after the formation of Israel. It’s been random acts of terrorism with periodic legit wars for almost a century since.

    Hamas etc needs to start understanding Israel doesn’t care about justifying war crimes. They want their hostages back and for this BS to end… completely. If that means they pile up martyrs until the count is so high there are no more future martyrs to find then they are okay with that. Anyone that truly wants to avoid that outcome needs to call for an end to this Jihad nonsense, for the release of the hostages, and for UN intervention to force a 2 state solution that neither party is happy with but can tolerate because otherwise it will be a 1 state solution that Israel is happy with and everyone else is ashamed of.

    Wait wait wait… You’re saying disguising combatants as civilians and using civilians as shields is bad because it directly results in a huge increase in civilian casualties? But that means you see how Israel might not be gratuitously committing genocide but rather it being an unfortunate side effect of the terrorist’s strategy!










  • Happened, not happening. Almost a year ago. In a foreign volunteer group. With poor evidence and zero investigation into whether the inquiry was started or who was involved with the cover-up. I didn’t say it doesn’t happen. I said the support for this accusation is extremely limited otherwise the article would have been written more strongly than ‘we think he’s believable’. More importantly, I’m making it clear there absolutely are rules and consequences long ago put in place to prevent it so even if it did occur this is a failure of individuals not reporting the crime or handling the reports of it improperly rather than a systemic one.

    Being almost a year old this should have been written far more concretely than it was. Ie: ‘These individuals witnessed a warcrime and provided the following proof to this Ukrainian officer overseeing their operations. We questioned the officer, or their superiors, and they either refused comment or provided an explanation which follows…’. You should be asking yourself why journalists didn’t investigate far deeper than this surface level trite.
