Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly found stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes, the UN human rights office, OHCHR, said on Tuesday.

      And herded them into camps to be starved and killed for no reason other than being who they are. Took less than a century to become who they hated the most.

    It’s sick that the US voted to give the Zionist regime billions on the same day that mass graves of people executed by Israeli soldiers are being uncovered.

    This will be the news that causes the USA to finally tell Israel to stop, I’m sure.

    Israel is a pack of lunatics.

        Deadassed wrong; Palestine isn’t a settler-colonial abomination. There’s no call for their civilians to be bombed; and if you think there is, you might be a cracker-assed settler who needs to go back to where their ancestors came from

          Cracker ass settler is probably the dumbest thing I’ve read online today considering you’re a fucking American that writes everywhere about how evil Amerika is.

          You’re a few IQ points short of an actual thought so I’ll just let this one go and chop it up to TikTok brain rot.

          Here is a game: Swap the words and see how it sounds. It it still doesn’t sound bad, then your just an idiot and we can’t help you.

          All lsraeli violence against Gaza is self defense

          Also, based on your previous comments: You are working a dead-end job in the US, complain you are poor, and complain a lot about jews, coon-minstrels, and crackers . Your comments read like a privileged 20-something that can’t figure out to do anything but complain and blame everyone else.

          Just like reddit, your comments are public and my god you truly are a walking poster for why not everyone should have children.

          Some of your comments are just so asinine and backwards. You’ll complain about zionists and then immediately cry about lore in a video game while saying Amerika is bad while talking about how evil Biden.

            Opening with eugenics! Bold today, aren’t we?

            and complain a lot about jews

            If you had the first iota of literacy or reading comprehension, you’d see that my complaining is about Zionists, and that there’s a couple instances of my making sure that I split out a deliberated, principled difference between genocidal Zionists, and the Jews that protest their being used as a shield by those perpetrating the butchering of Palestine. Or are you one of the ones who has to conflate Judaism with Zionism to make the hasbara accusation of antisemitism when public opinion doesn’t go your way?

            coon-minstrels

            If you were a part of a marginalized, oppressed, still-shackled minority, and you had to watch members of your community sell out to the oppressor, shucking and jiving for them at every turn, you’d be a little bit pissed about it too-- but expecting someone like you to have any kind of empathy is kind of a tall ask; I get it.

            crackers

            …And? See the previous entry and try to put it together yourself.

            You’ll complain about zionists and then immediately cry about lore in a video game

            Do you expect anybody to fixate on the world’s ills 24/7? Not even the most diehard anticolonialist, not even the most principled communist is capable of that (and I’m FAR from the most principled, trust that), they’d burn out and become useless to the cause after that. But again, expecting you to know anything about maintenance of one’s principles and staving off the kind of nihilism neoliberalism inflicts on its atomized populace is like trying to explain particle physics to a pigeon. All you get is a shat-on table for your trouble.

            Please suckstart a shotgun with your one-day-old profile havin ass; dealing with scratched crackers like you is tiring.

        If a German occupied my home during 1940, I’m telling you he wouldn’t be a civilian to me. He’d be a complacent thief. A low life settler.

                Killed by who?

                A separate report published in Haaretz noted that the Israeli military was “compelled to request an aerial strike” against its own facility inside the Erez Crossing to Gaza “in order to repulse the terrorists” who had seized control. That base was filled with Israeli Civil Administration officers and soldiers at the time.

                An Israeli woman named Yasmin Porat confirmed in an interview with Israel Radio that the military “undoubtedly” killed numerous Israeli noncombatants during gun battles with Hamas militants on October 7. “They eliminated everyone, including the hostages,” she stated, referring to Israeli special forces.

                While being held by the Hamas gunmen, Porat recalled, “They did not abuse us. We were treated very humanely… No one treated us violently.”

                She added, “The objective was to kidnap us to Gaza, not to murder us.”

                https://thegrayzone.com/2023/10/27/israels-military-shelled-burning-tanks-helicopters/

                I’m aware that some of the hostages that were taken were children. All accounts suggest that they were treated well, for hostages anyway. Its important to recognize that the Zionist regime keeps thousands upon thousands of Palestinian hostages, many of which are children. The Zionists could have negotiated an exchange, ensuring the safe return of all Israeli hostages. Instead, they decided to bomb the living shit out of Gaza, pretty much ensuring their demise.

            Adults who were born in Israel, yes, children, no, but your handwringing is funny, since dead Israeli toddlers are purely hypothetical, and you clearly give no fucks about dead Palestinian babies.

              I do. Mentioning civilian victims on Israeli an side doesn’t mean I don’t care about civilian victims on Palestinian side, this point was simply already covered largely.

              Also please refrain from personal attacks and other violence threats.

              I think wanting to avoid innocent civilian deaths is a moral line that is valid for both sides.

                While I agree with that, it doesn’t feel like your question to the other commenter carries quite the weight in this specific context as it might in others given that neither side has been clean about this, and it’s not the Palestinian side that has intentionally blown up a playground within the past week.

                I do generally think it’s hard to equate the two fairly in this context, given the power differential between the two forces and their relative capabilities to be discerning if they so chose.

                  I apologize if I misunderstood you, but there is no both sides here. The united nations recognizes the right to armed struggle against occupation.

                  UNGA Resolution 37/43 (1982) reaffirmed the “inalienable right” of the Palestinian people “and all peoples under foreign and colonial domination” to self-determination. It also reaffirmed the legitimacy of “the struggle of peoples for […] liberation from colonial and foreign domination and foreign occupation by all available means, including armed struggle.”

                  https://www.cjpme.org/fs_236/

                  It even mentions the Palestinian struggle explicitly.

                Why would an Israeli family be living in the West Bank or Gaza? And who would be more likely to be killing their children, Israeli occupation forces or Palestinian resistance to the occupation forces?

        There are no civilians in Israel; every settler is a combatant by virtue (ha) of their theft.

        And before you start pearl-clutching and morally peacocking like I know you would if not for this addendum; no, I do not factor Israeli children into my calculus. It sucks for them that their parents decided to either become, or carry on the family tradition of being settler scum; but does Israel ever consider Palestinian children? No. They don’t. Israel calls Palestinian children Hamas when it suits them; ergo, I don’t consider Israeli children. At all.

        If a civilian comes at you with a weapon, trying to kill you, are they still a civilian?

        If a civilian stands in front of relief trucks, sending food/medicine/clothes/tents while the military destroys food/medicine/homes, are they still a civilian?

        If a civilian cheers every time one of their country’s soldiers shoots a random person or when a bomb in dropped on a hospital, or when missiles are fired at the places went to get away from the fighting, are they still a civilian?

        'Cause, from where I’m sitting, being okay with slaughtering people kinds makes it seem like they aren’t ‘innocent’ in this.

        ISIS fights against all America’s enemies. Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya…

        Thankfully israel funds ISIS by buying their oil. And ISIS decided to attack Iran, Syria and now even Russia! Very convenient people!

          It’s weird your source is saying Israel was mostly buying ISIS oil, while the FT article they heavily draw from actually says most of it was coming out of Kurdish territories, with the funds being used for Peshmerga forces fighting against ISIS

          Taking all reporting into account it looks like all the produced oil going through Turkish traders with nobody down the chain caring who they’re funding

            The oil is extracted from Dir A-Zur in Syria and two fields in Iraq and transported to the Kurdish city of Zakhu in a triangle of land near the borders of Syria, Iraq and Turkey. Israeli and Turkish mediators come to the city and when prices are agreed, the oil is smuggled to the Turkish city of Silop marked as originating from Kurdish regions of Iraq and sold for $15-18 per barrel

            It passes hands a few times to avoid direct links. Someone traced it back. Came from ISIS.

              You’re pretty delusional if you think every drop of oil can be traced back in such an active conflict. You should read up on more sources and you’ll see everyone was buying cheap oil from the intermediaries. You could say Assad was funding ISIS with Russian support, but it’s a pretty useless statement once you know where it comes from

                I’m glad you are denying this report by making random claims about drops of oil.

                Did you know oil goes into barrels? Onto trucks? So much cool info that’s mentioned in the article. You can even read the article before commenting on it to defend israel!
