"Okay, people! Can we come up with additional ways of committing genocide without actually calling it that?"

"Well..."

"Yes?!"

"We could make eating a capital offense."

They've already done that.

fishing during an artificial famine is illegal?

no, it's the occupation that's illegal

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 31 points 10 months ago

Very normal. Very normal thing for a country to do to those under its power.

[-] Doorbook@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

it is not a country, it is a terrorist organization.

I don't understand, what is the actual purpose of this rule?

[-] linkinkampf19@lemmy.world 38 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Cruelty is the point. When you don't outright kill Palestinians (even though they're doing that too), why not just make their life just not worth living?

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Well yes. But what is their offical excuse?

[-] linkinkampf19@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago

Per the article, it "exposes you to danger". Piss poor excuse when everything around them is already danger. Basically finding every which way to encroach of any feasible sliver of livelihood. AKA they want them to suffer and preferably die horribly afterward. Which, uh, fucking sucks.

Ah yes water. Such danger. I will be eaten by shark. At least the shark will have a nice meal. If I stay on the ground I will just get hombed.

The danger being the IDF, who will shoot Gazans for being in the water

U.N. official says he saw Israeli troops kill 2 Palestinians fishing off Gaza coast - CBS News - https://www.cbsnews.com/news/israel-war-gaza-troops-kill-palestinians-fishing-un-official/

Israel wants to make Palestinians so miserable that they choose to "voluntarily migrate".

[-] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

you wouldn't fishermen to ruin your artificial famine?

[-] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 9 points 10 months ago

Likely multi purpose.

Stop fishing for food. Stop keeping cool in heat. Stop attempts to import food by sea. Assert control to grind down.

Next, they will shoot them for their own protection.
