Israel under attack

[Notch7]

I believe Israel has a right to defend itself…..but, that right is not a free pass.

Israel is a democratic country and therefore has to comply with international laws.


I see these as potential Israeli international humanitarian law violations over next few days:

1) cutting off electricity, water, food and med supplies - ie a siege thats acceptable against civilian population

2) indiscriminate bombing of civilian population

3) civilians should have humanitarian aid and support - Israel have closed borders


Israel will be judged internationally by its actions over the coming days and weeks

Gaza has a border with a fellow muslim country, also shut.

Good argument to kick all the press out
Some how shut down all telephone lines
Jam all types of civil communication ?

Maximum violence ?? To solve the problem / issue ? And if does not it’s because not enough was used ?

Egyptians don’t want them

Hamas are an off shoot of the Muslim brotherhood who were in power there for a while
Until they kicked em out and bumped off a good few

They being the army

Probably because Egypt is already hosting 9m migrants already.

So if its a fellow muslim country then religion is not part of the issue?

No Arab nation want the palistinians dumped on them

Jordan took military action against them way back and kicked em out

Take them in and you do nothing but invite trouble

Israel apoligises for the targeting of 6 journalists, killing 1.

"We thought they were medics" & "We will look into the effectivness of our weapons & make any necessary adjustments".

Is that why 'bibi' is bringing in laws to override their justice system?

Next time they'll kill them all - more effective!

Have you got a link to the article saying the IDF were targeting medics?

may be my google don't work properly, but it can't find either of those quotes! have you got a link ?


I sort of hope the Israelis do a good job, but then again, they will be all paddling over the channel in a few months time and exchange their hate from the jews to the brits... can we really cope with much more multi-multiculturalism

 

[ellal]

Ah yes the UK, so dire folk risk life and limb to get in any which way they can ...

The only way in is 'illegally' now...

Since Sue-Ellen has prevented any legal ways!

They are doing it in Gaza

Linky Linky

And from the well respected MSF

What is happening now in Gaza is in effect a medieval siege...

But the weapons that will be unleashed will kill thousands of innocents indiscriminately!
