“No one will stop us, not The Hague, not the axis of evil and not anyone else,"
Wow, the new years in Israel took back them to 2002.
Someone tell them to don't make the American mistakes post 9/11, oh wait.... :/
Man, that article was published October 11th. That poor guy mut feel so defeated, it's a well written article and... here we are.
If they don't want to recognize international law, maybe we shouldn't recognize them as a sovereign nation.
Genocidal maniac
yeah, he is willing to trade the Future and wellfare of his Country for his deranged dream of a Israeli Empire.
luckily enough the ordinary Israeli isn't that Stupid and every Experts progonoses him to be thrown out of Office.
The point of the ICJ and laws against genocide and ethnic cleansing is to protect minorities, like, say, Jews.
So if they're saying that those post WWII rules are now null and void... then there's nothing to protect them once the US Empire either withdraws or loses interest in providing cover.
US Empire
I also like to call my Friends "Vassals"
I don't think international law has done much to protect Israel over the years. Israel has been attacked 4 times by neighboring countries since their inception. Maybe that's why they are the way they are when it comes to questions of security.

Please show me one example, where Israel wants to eradicate Palestinians. And while you're at it, show me the difference between the Iraqi wars and this. Hamas and IS are pretty much the same. While I agree that both wars are fruitless and utterly stupid and based on some kind of twisted reality to fight fire with fire (not much difference between terror from Hamas or Israel at this point, same as in the Iraqi Wars) that only brings more death, destruction and despair - it is no genocide.
And Israel ignoring international law is pretty much the same as the US, Russia and China ignoring international law. But to wear down those countries takes time, effort and a United front. While time is probably the smallest issue...effort and and united front is a whole lot more of an issue.
What do you call it when you tell Palestinians to evacuate to a particular safe area as you're about to do some bombing, but then you bomb that supposedly safe area you just sent families into? What do you call it when you kill more than 10,000 Palestinian children? I mean, that kinda seems more than a little bit like wanting to eradicate Palestinians.
But also, why did Netanyahu even want Hamas rather than the PA running Gaza in the first place?
What i'd call it? War crimes. On the same level as Russia. Is Russia being accused of genocide because they bomb schools and hospitals? No, they are commuting war crimes. Russia was accused of genocide because they deported children - and they have been found guilty for that.
Israel is committing war crimes left and right while fighting Hamas, but that's no genocide.
Ukraine is a very large nation, Russia would have to pull out the nukes to bomb their way into genocide. Gaza is just a city, Israel has it easy.
But also.. how is stealing children genocide but killing them ain't?
If someone argue (genocide vs war crime) while the world experts who came up with the law of what consider genocide are calling it genocide, you know it is useless speaking with them
Have you even looked at any of the examples in SA’s case?
Yes. Have you? It should be very clear that not a single genocide case is a dry, clear cut case.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
GDF has a pretty good video on it if you're interested
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
That's a lot of whataboutism there mate.
So Law is whataboutism then?
They can, they just don't want to. Impose sanctions on Israel's tech industry and restrict material imports and watch their state collapse into nothing in 2 years.
Gaza won't exist in 2 years even with sanctions.
If the US said they were going to stop providing military support and tech it may well stop it...
Bellicose BiBi. Forever a barroom bouncer in New Jersey. I really hope he ends up in a jail cell.
Eerily reminiscent of the fascist playbooks.
How can a country not recognize international law, but I have to pay taxes, which in turn are used to support lawbreakers?
is that a dare?

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
