Multiple legal experts told BBC Verify that Israel may have committed war crimes under the Geneva Convention, which largely prohibits the destruction of infrastructure by an occupying power.

In July, Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz outlined plans to establish what he called a “humanitarian city” over the ruins of Rafah, with an initial 600,000 Palestinians being confined there.
The plan has been widely condemned. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the BBC that the proposal would be “interpreted as being akin to a concentration camp”.
So they’re admitting they COULD HAVE taken out some of those buildings without indiscriminately bombing hospitals and aid sites. What next? Are we going to learn they could have taken out Hamas without murdering women and children?! /s
Nazis.
You could have been a Nazi in 1942 and legit not known about the horrors of the concentration camps. There is not a single intellectually-honest Zionist who doesn’t understand what they are doing in Gaza and the West Bank.
So, yeah, they are worse than Nazis.
Worse
Yes, but with no foreskin
Murderous invaders continue their murderous invasion. Meh. Idk what the overall demographics of hell are but I can tell you it looked a little bit like Majorca in the summer for the last 200 years or so…
I have a genuine question that’s been bugging me. Does Hamas put their hands up and surrender to end the suffering or wait for Israel to end the suffering after everything and everyone has been decimated?
Israel will continue its genocide even if every Hamas member surrenders and commits seppuku. Anyone looking at this for any amount of time would know this. So you’re either willfully ignorant or you just hate Palestinians.
I have a genuine question, how does it feel to play apologist for an ongoing genocide?
Netenyahu said he would not stop. How about israel getting the hell out of pañestine?
I have a genuine question that’s been bugging me. Will Israel sate their bloodlust for revenge and stop the genocide, or wait for their entire society to rot completely from the inside out as they commit themselves fully to the expansionist fascist ideology?
I can’t find the Hannah Arendt quote for the life of me, but she called it correctly from the jump off - maintaining a militarized occupation of Palestine et al without popular mandate or agreement, requires domination via apartheid or ethnic cleansing, and will fundamentally corrupt the state in all aspects of life.
Israelis are expanding their West Bank land grabs and even terrorizing Christian Palestinian-American villages there.

Separately, the US embassy in Jerusalem has said it condemns recent violence by Israeli settlers against the Christian town of Taybeh in the West Bank. Most of the land there is owned by Palestinian-Americans and, according to locals, some 300 residents are US passport holders. Attacks, including by masked men torching cars and attacking homes, have ramped up. On Monday, settlers set fields ablaze close to a fifth-Century church, leading to a call for international action from the town’s priests.
The West Bank shows us that for Gaza, Hamas surrendering would at best change the speed of the Zionist genocide of Palestinians, but not put a stop to it.
Israel’s current public-facing goal is to indefinitely occupy Gaza, and their real goal is genocide, so Hamas surrendering would simply mean fewer people lobbing IEDs at Israel while they murder and displace Gazans. Israeli ethnic cleansing created Hamas, not the other way around.
Pretty sure Israel won’t stop until everything has been decimated. Hamas is mostly a scapegoat, them surrendering wouldn’t stop anything.
This comment is actually kind of slick, I gotta give it to you. Almost subliminal there…
Almost.
Might work on reddit though!
