does it strike you as funny and telling that you have to repeatedly JCD the morality and virtue of a sovereign nation as it commits a slew of war crimes and atrocities while the rest of us point out how awful it all is and only attempt to defend the civilians who are being decimated and not the terrorist organization?
Whether or not a 'slew' of war crimes has been committed by Israel will depend on the details of individual events. RaiGuy has referenced, more than once, that IDF snipers killed women and children. On its face, that can't be labeled a war crimes, without further details, because terrorists love to use women and children in war.
UN investigators say that Israel committed and continues to commit a slew of war crimes. the current blockade/starvation campaign is textbook. destroying all of the medical facilities in gaza is textbook.
Dude, you know even less about international law than domestic law. You haven't the faintest fucking idea what does or doesn't constitute a war crime. Nobody on this board is an expert in that, to my knowledge, but at least some of us have a clue.
"All" of the medical facilities have not been destroyed. The most recent one, that I'm aware of, was in April and part of the hospital was damaged. Of course, nobody cares that Hamas is using hospitals to hide in. Nor does anyone care much that IDF called ahead and told everyone to evacuate before the bombing, so that nobody was killed, besides Hamas, as a result of the bombing.
Great, so if Israel is held accountable for killing children used in combat, we should expect Hamas/Gazan government to also be held accountable, right?
It would be nice if Israel allowed neutral investigators in rather than have us rely on their word where Hamas is. The only proof has been given by Israel and they have been caught MULTIPLE times lying or fabricating evidence.
Is it your opinion that Hamas has been insufficiently held accountable? Really? What does that have to do with Israel's plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza? Note that the plan announced today is absolutely, 100% objectively ethnic cleansing.
Has Israel down any ethnic cleansing so far?What does that have to do with Israel's plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza? Note that the plan announced today is absolutely, 100% objectively ethnic cleansing.
Ethnic cleansing - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
"Ethnic cleansing is the systematic forced removal of ethnic, racial, or religious groups from a given area, with the intent of making the society ethnically homogeneous. Along with direct removal such as deportation or population transfer, it also includes indirect methods aimed at forced migration by coercing the victim group to flee and preventing its return, such as murder, rape, and property destruction"
That’s simply not plausible in an active warzone. Investigators are not going to dodge bullets to conduct their investigations.
lmao.
Al Jazeera wold like to report from Judea and Samaria, but the PA banned them.

Reading those links, it seems that both the Israelis and the Palestinian Authority oppose Al-Jazeera (and other journalists) from freely and openly reporting on the West Bank and Gaza.Al Jazeera wold like to report from Judea and Samaria, but the PA banned them.

Those aren’t the investigators that Rai was referring to, I’m presuming.
Did I quote him?
No, but that would be a weird conversation to start randomly on your own.
Any outside observer, whether press or investigators, is better than nothing. Israel wants to hide their war crimes. They want to control the narrative and play the victim. Or just the Hamas defense where anything they bomb is justified because, you know , Hamas.
