Israel-Palestine

[Elephant Pyjamas]

The ICJ is the top UN court and can make legally binding rulings in disputes between countries, but has little way of enforcing its orders

If the G7 countries don't actively force Israel to obey the order then the whole international law structures may as well just be shut down

Ireland, Norway, and Spain have announced they will formally recognise a Palestinian state from 28 May.
Spain and Ireland said the decision was not against Israel nor in favour of Hamas, but rather in support of peace.
Israel reacted angrily, warning the move would mean more instability in the region and recalling its ambassadors to all three countries.

I actually think i hate Biden as much as Trump right now.

How come he fucked up so badly that i feel that way, such a weak president.

Agree to some extent but as in all countries the President or Prime Minster appears to have executive power but in reality is the chairperson representing very, very powerful lobby groups such as for finance, military, etc. The Lettuce PM soon found that out, and thankfully so. Trump is a wannabe dictator though and just serves his own nefarious and disgusting perspectives.

So we have got actual beheaded children now. Some of the things I've seen online defy belief. Imagine the reaction if Russia was doing this in Ukraine. Future generations will be very unforgiving.

Who hasn’t accidentally murdered three dozen people before? Truly a relatable mistake.

 

[Del Woppio]

"Israel has a right to go after Hamas, and we understand this strike killed two senior Hamas terrorists who are responsible for attacks against Israeli civilians," a White House national security spokesperson said.

But they conceded that "Israel must take every precaution possible to protect civilians"

Just fuck off. Fuck off.

The channel 4 dispatches program on Gaza today is absolutely heartbreaking
