War Crimes ? What Is The Point

[DrFilth]

un vote on gaza war crimes


if they have a good sniff round and find israel guilty nothing will happen as they have never taken any notice of any un resolutions against them in the past

> Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls vote to open inquiry a "travesty" <

> Israeli Justice Minister Tzipi Livni called the Human Rights Council "anti-Israel," according to the BBC <

> The U.S. voted against the resolution <



so why should things change now ?

At least they're saying that such butchery is unacceptable. Nothing will change.

Israel respect no ones view when it comes to the slaughter of innocent people in Gaza, to day a UN school bombed..............they have the protection of America.

> Pillay cited an Israeli drone missile strike in Gaza City that killed three children and wounded two others while they were playing on the roof of their home. She also made reference to an Israeli strike and naval shelling that struck seven children playing on Gaza beach, killing four from the same family.

"These are just a few examples where there seems to be a strong possibility that international humanitarian law has been violated, in a manner that could amount to war crimes," Pillay told the rights council's special session. <

if these drones have a camera they must have seen the children ?

It's a long shot I know but Hamas could always try deceasing from lobbing missiles.

you have no problem with killing the kids then ?
what about sanctions on israel ?

[NiceCupOfTea]

This is all too awful. I have so many friends who are Jewish here in England and we cannot find any excuse for this,we think it is Genocide. Some call it defence. But not many of my friends who are Jewish here in England call it a good thing.

We could have hit squads like the Simon Rosenthal centre does for old Nazis, but whilst the US back them every inch of the way there is honestly nothing that will change, and the US think they are God and have the right to police the world, so what can actually be done? We must however continue to condemn them but really there are a lot of countries in Europe who could poke the US far more ferociously than we do about siding with such genocidal lunatics- and I'm saying that with my mother being Jewish too ( she's utterly appalled by it all).

The UK abstained.

"you have no problem with killing the kids then ? " - Clearly hamas does not or they'd stop firing missiles from hospitals and schools. Why do all you lot keep banging on about Israel when the power to stop this lies with Hamas. You also fail to tell us what should Israel do? Just absorb the missiles?

"what about sanctions on israel ? " - they are responding to being attacked, not difficult is it?

[ChillDoubt]

Very interesting:

Why DOES Hamas refuse to abide by a ceasefire proposed by the Arab League?

Anyone?

[Peter Pedant]

.

Israel is losing the propaganda war ... but then if you have 150 dead children to explain away - you can say they all have grenades in their hands...

the point ? the point ? the point is that if the lucky accused holiday in Europe they can be arrested -as almost happened in Belgium with Colonel X a few years ago

[DrFilth]

ChillDoubt they want the blockade lifted and their land back


as i have posted before which ri does not see israel should abide with the un resolution saying to move the borders back

[DrFilth]

r1 > "you have no problem with killing the kids then ? " - Clearly hamas does not or they'd stop firing missiles from hospitals and schools. <

the kids blown up on the roof playing , no rockets ?

the hospital , no rockets ?


clearly you have no problem with the killing of children

[ChillDoubt]

ChillDoubt they want the blockade lifted and their land back
-----------------
That blockade is also endorsed and enforced by Egypt, so again, why will Hamas not abide by an Arab League led ceasefire?

[Ric.ror]

why will Hamas not abide by an Arab League led ceasefire?

Because Hamas will not recognise Israels right to exist

[DrFilth]

ChillDoubt they want it lifted now then talk not the other way round because they would be back where they started


don't forget the piracy

"the kids blown up on the roof playing , no rockets ?

the hospital , no rockets ? " - not when they looked, suprise surprise. of Course I abhour what is going on but the logician in me asks what are Israel supposed to do when they are being attacked? Hamase should adhere to the agreed ceasfire. If they hit schools and hospitals, they are either targettting because rockets were fired from there or it was collateral damage. I don't think, and nor do you really, that Israel are specifically targetting civilians if that were true then they would not be warning them of targets in advance.

This is pretty well all Hamas, any deaths are their doing since those Israeli teens were murdered.

notice you say murdered but the five palestinian teens killed this year before these were killed not murdered


> "the kids blown up on the roof playing , no rockets ?

suprise suprise they have not released any film footage from the drone showing the kids on the roof with a rocket launcher ?
