Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly found stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes, the UN human rights office, OHCHR, said on Tuesday.

    This will be the news that causes the USA to finally tell Israel to stop, I’m sure.

    Israel is a pack of lunatics.

          Did you know that the prisoner-per-capita ratio in the US is higher than both Russia and China? In fact, the total number of incarcerated people (ie people in prisons and jails) in the US is 2.25 million. In Russia that number is 433,006 and in China it’s estimated at 1.7 million.

          Combined that’s 2.13 million.

          Those two “worse” countries combined don’t have as many people incarcerated people as the US.

      My feeling is the US feels they are too committed now to stop and just hope that Israel will stop by itself soon.

      I’m not saying I like it, but it definitely feels like that…

        If a civilian comes at you with a weapon, trying to kill you, are they still a civilian?

        If a civilian stands in front of relief trucks, sending food/medicine/clothes/tents while the military destroys food/medicine/homes, are they still a civilian?

        If a civilian cheers every time one of their country’s soldiers shoots a random person or when a bomb in dropped on a hospital, or when missiles are fired at the places went to get away from the fighting, are they still a civilian?

        'Cause, from where I’m sitting, being okay with slaughtering people kinds makes it seem like they aren’t ‘innocent’ in this.

        You mean IDF veterans and reservists?

        It’s sad that some children died, but collateral damage is inevitable in war and there’s no proof that Hamas deliberately killed children (unlike Israel, which has murdered over 12,300 children - higher than the last 4 years of wars combined!)

        ISIS fights against all America’s enemies. Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya…

        Thankfully israel funds ISIS by buying their oil. And ISIS decided to attack Iran, Syria and now even Russia! Very convenient people!

          It’s weird your source is saying Israel was mostly buying ISIS oil, while the FT article they heavily draw from actually says most of it was coming out of Kurdish territories, with the funds being used for Peshmerga forces fighting against ISIS

          Taking all reporting into account it looks like all the produced oil going through Turkish traders with nobody down the chain caring who they’re funding

            The oil is extracted from Dir A-Zur in Syria and two fields in Iraq and transported to the Kurdish city of Zakhu in a triangle of land near the borders of Syria, Iraq and Turkey. Israeli and Turkish mediators come to the city and when prices are agreed, the oil is smuggled to the Turkish city of Silop marked as originating from Kurdish regions of Iraq and sold for $15-18 per barrel

            It passes hands a few times to avoid direct links. Someone traced it back. Came from ISIS.

              You’re pretty delusional if you think every drop of oil can be traced back in such an active conflict. You should read up on more sources and you’ll see everyone was buying cheap oil from the intermediaries. You could say Assad was funding ISIS with Russian support, but it’s a pretty useless statement once you know where it comes from

                I’m glad you are denying this report by making random claims about drops of oil.

                Did you know oil goes into barrels? Onto trucks? So much cool info that’s mentioned in the article. You can even read the article before commenting on it to defend israel!

      Less civilians died over two years in Ukraine than in a month in Gaza. The west is showing the world what real atrocities look like here.

    For real what is it with them, where are they even trying to go with this?

    Edit: I mean the Israel army. What is their end goal?

      Isn’t it obvious? Genocide. They want to be the next US, Australia, or Canada. Kill all the natives, or enough to make them not a threat anymore, and take all the land for themselves. Only difference we’re supposed to know not to do that anymore.

        You’ll notice that the report doesn’t estimate whether they died before or after Israel’s incursion.

      The extinction of the Gazan population and total annexation. That was the long plan anyhow.

        I see where people might think that if you’re just looking at the immediate context from the October 7th attacks, but I urge you to look into the conditions Palestinian people had been living under for decades, especially in Gaza. Rather than vengeance, when you look into the history, the October 7th attacks feel more like an excuse to go full throttle into carrying out what the Israeli government and hardcore Zionists already been trying to do for a while now.

        The political establishment in Israel does not recognize Palestine, their goal has long been the eradication of the Palestinian nation.

        I understand it’s easy to blame Hamas and the Palestinian resistance for Israel’s disproportionate and genocidal response, but the second Nakba was long coming.

          Additionally worth remembering that the normalization process was nearing its conclusion by October, Israel was well on the path to buying off all of its neighbors and achieving total regional cooperation in the next Nakba.

    They’d load them onto cattle cars if the ground wasn’t too chewed up from the bombs to ever build a railroad there.
