    Israel forces have killed Israeli hostages under a white flag, killed large numbers of women and children, bombed hospitals and refugee camps, along with killing reporters and aid workers…while Israel always had the right to defend itself that is not justification for extrajudicial killings or genocide, both of which should provoke harsh international condemnation and responses.

      There is a discussion to be had about an occupying force having any fucking rights but let’s just leave that for the trials that will surely hold these war criminals accountable …

        Israel would have to acknowledge a need for trials first. Unless the US stops blocking action.

      Israel doesnt have a right to defend itself, especially as an occupying army against Palestine.

      That means they’re going to get away with it.

      The geneva conventions haven’t mattered for awhile.

    Nationalities of the aid workers were Irish, British, Polish and British Australian.

    Correction: I put British twice.
