    Wtf you’re making this about my family background now? Which by the way is german for as far as I can trace it back, and that’s quite a few generations. But how is this relevant?

    And you’re mixing stuff up, like Afghanistan also has quite a different population density and consists of desert for a large part, that might have something to do with it don’t you think? And the nature of the conflict is also quite different.

    And you know what? I’m not even denying that atrocities like Annan building happen also on IDF side. But these are nutjubs that act without IDF chain of command approval and without following standard IDF processes. And there is a legal system in place where they are being dealt with and punished. Is it still unfair? Of course it is. But in palestine terrorist attackers are hailed as martyrs and their families get payouts by Hamas. That still makes the Israeli side much better in my view.

    And also it’s not Israel vs. the rest of the world as you make it out to be. Israel is far from isolated on this and for a good reason.

      “about my family background”

      Why would this be related to your family? Unless I’m right in that you’ve been to birthright in Israel, but your family is irrelevant, even if connected. So that’s a yes. Wasn’t really hard to imagine, truly. Because I was being serious, anyone supporting Israel like you are, denying their atrocities and the fact that they are genociding women and children is literally under the influence of the zionist propaganda. It’s not your fault, they’re really good at it. You’re a victim of propaganda.

      Still, it doesn’t change the fact, does it now?

      https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/01/1145937

      Detailing the provisional measures that Israel should implement, the ICJ judge noted that both South Africa and Israel were States parties to Genocide Convention and therefore had agreed “to prevent and to punish the crime of genocide”.

      Quoting article 2 of the key international treaty signed in the aftermath of the Second World War, Judge Donoghue explained that genocide was defined as “acts committed with an intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group”.

      The two-million-strong Palestinian population did indeed constitute a distinct group in the court’s view, she said.

      Turning to the article 3 of the Genocide Convention, which prohibits “conspiracy to commit genocide” and public incitement to commit genocide, the judge said that the ICJ had taken note of a number of statements made by senior Israeli officials.

      These included comments by Yoav Galant, Defense Minister of Israel, who reportedly told troops on the border with the enclave that they were fighting “human animals” who were the “ISIS of Gaza”.

      Israel is committing genocide. Killing women and children.

      https://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/2024/israel-war-on-gaza-10000-children-killed/

      But you’re making sick excuses and justifications for the genocide, and saying “the Israeli side is better” as if the Palestinian women and children were doing anything to Israel. You don’t even have the ability to discern between Hamas, a terrorist organisation, and the people of Palestine. Because you’ve been brainwashed into thinking they’re all the same and thus it’s justified to exterminate them all.

      It’s sickening to me that despite the horrors inflicted on the Jewish people in WWII, they’re still doing this now. It’s sickening.

        I don’t know, you’re down to personal insults now and framing me as a bad human? So I’m falling for pro Israel propaganda? Have you considered that maybe it is you who is falling for Hamas propaganda?

          “Mommy, please, that man on the internet called me a bad name for actively supporting the genocide of women and children. He’s the baddie, but we aren’t, right?”

          Oh no, words, they’re so terribly hurtful.

          I use United Nations and the consensus of the international community to make my decisions. You use shitty lies perpetuated by zionists. You haven’t posted a single source for any of your claims, and purposefully ignored the ones I’ve sent, because you’re literally made to think they’re not real by conditioning you into not accepting that Israel ever does anything bad.

          Your refusal to believe Israel is GENOCIDING WOMEN AND CHILDREN is what shows how brainwashed you are.

          Sima Sami Bahous, Executive Director of the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women), recalled that women and girls pay the highest price when armed conflict erupts. Since 7 October, when Hamas fighters attacked Israel, 67 per cent of the more than 14,000 people killed in Gaza are estimated to be women and children. “That is two mothers killed every hour and seven women every two hours,” she said. “We mourn them all.”

          Every day, 180 women are giving birth without water, painkillers, anaesthesia for Caesarean sections, electricity for incubators or medical supplies, she said. Mothers, meanwhile, mix baby formula with contaminated water — when they find it — and go without food so that their children can live another day. “Women in Gaza have told us that they pray for peace, but that if peace does not come, they pray for a quick death, in their sleep, with their children in their arms,” she said. “It should shame us all that any mother, anywhere, has such a prayer.”

          Could you imagine defending Hitler in 1940 by saying “I’m choosing the lesser evil”? Probably not. So open your eyes and smell the genocide.

            You couldn’t hurt me if you tried, it’s just that this is not a basis for discussion.

            And maybe look at the sources yourself, does it say Israel and IDF are the sole cause and the only side to blame for this? That part is just your interpretation.

            And actually I’m curious, what do you think how Israel should react to the attacks? Roll over and take it to the chin? Just surrender and let the killings and rocket attacks happen? Because apparently Hamas outsmarted them and human shield tactics are supposed to work? Better directly surrender then, since confronting Hamas is equal to genocide? Is that it?

              Still vehemently denying that Israel is committing genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

              You’re just unable to accept it. Literally. You will not be able to address a single article of the UN and OCHR I’ve linked and accept them as reality. Do you not understand how childish it is to pretend that second hand Israeli propaganda is more credible than the rest of the world combined?

              Prove me wrong and address these WOMEN AND CHILDREN BEING PURPOSEFULLY KILLED BY ISRAEL.

              It makes my stomach hurt knowing that people like you exist, that people will defend a genocide, of slaughtering children, while pretending they care about children dying.

              It’s insane.

              “How do you think Israel should react”

              How about by not committing genocide? That’s a good start, in my opinion. How about not using collective punishment, which is a LITERAL WAR CRIME?

              So you think Israel shouldn’t be held to the standards of international laws, and should be allowed to act like an international terrorist organisation, and should be allowed to continue a literal GENOCIDE?

              Imagine if you had lived 90 years earlier and you’d have to listen to non-Jewish Germans going on about “well Germany shouldn’t just sit and take these [a horrible ethnic insult] taking over our jobs and industries. They’re all to blame for! Let’s get them in the gas chambers! It’s ONLY REASONABLE!

              You sicken me. Prove me wrong and address even one of these articles.

                I mean for real, you’re accusing me of falling for Israel propaganda but don’t you see how you are using propaganda rhetoric yourself? Like always twisting my words and not only mine, you’re misrepresenting your sources.

                Like Mrs Bahous “women and children pay the highest price” of course that’s spot on and nothing about it is controversial. But given that, how do you jump to the conclusion that Israel is genociding the people of palestine? Or that Israel is actively targeting women and children? These are entirely different things.

                And always throwing this accusation of genocide around as if it is the killer argument to end all discussion. And it’s not true I’m sorry. Did Israel not publicly announce their military campaign weeks in advance and tell people to evacuate from the northern regions and the conflict zones? Don’t they have this roof knocking thing going on? Are these not facts? Are these not measures to minimize the civilian deaths? Is this what genocide looks like to you? How on earth does this make sense if Israel is on a mission to kill all civilians and eradicate the people of palestine? Don’t you see the contradiction? It’s so stupid, when at the same time you could have argued that maybe Israels reaction is out of proportion or maybe their cost-benefit analysis is off. That would have given your arguments so much more credibility and could have been a meaningful basis for discussion. But no, it always has to be all or nothing, Israel is the evil zionist empire conspiring to control the world and genociding peaceful civilians out of pure and baseless hate.

                And you’re evading my arguments and also my questions if they become to hard? If civilian deaths=automatic genocide and if Hamas is hiding among civilians, then what should Israels reaction have been? And please don’t give me any bullshit answers. I’m not asking what they should have done in the past and I’m not asking what they should not have done. I’m asking what do you think would be the appropriate reaction to this recent episode of the conflict.

                  “No no no it’s not true, you’re the one who’s brainwashed, it’s the UN who’s brainwashed, it’s the entire rest of the world who are brainwashed, not me despite me being unable to link a single source.”

                  You’re vehemently denying genocide.

                  Sick fuck.

                  Did Israel not publicly announce their military campaign weeks in advance and tell people to evacuate from the northern regions and the conflict zones?

                  If you weren’t a delusional brainwashed idiot, you’d know that this, like several other excuses you’ve used, doesn’t matter in the slightest when it comes to war crimes. Announcing you’re gonna do a war crime doesn’t absolve you of it, dumbo.

                  Just like I said, you can’t address a single source, but cry that they’re all Hamas propaganda. Weird how they’ve manage to convince the entire rest of the world, huh? Weird how all the evidence points to Israel committing genocide.

                  “Why aren’t you engaging with my pathetic attempts at excusing Israel’s crimes against humanity despite me now having any source to back up my claims, only pitiful propaganda”

                  Cry and stomp your foot all you want kid, your mind is not your own. You will not be able to accept reality, despite knowing what it is.

                  Israel bombs hospitals and schools. https://www.un.org/unispal/document/gaza-un-experts-decry-bombing-of-hospitals-and-schools-as-crimes-against-humanity-call-for-prevention-of-genocide/

                  The experts raised serious humanitarian and legal concerns over Israel tightening its 16-year siege of the enclave and its population and long-standing occupation, depriving 2.2 million people of essential food, fuel, water, electricity and medicine. An estimated 50,000 pregnant women in Gaza, are in desperate need of prenatal and postnatal care. The number of internally displaced people across the Gaza Strip is estimated at around one million.

                  There’s more than 10 000 dead kids.

                  https://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/2024/israel-war-on-gaza-10000-children-killed/

                  The Gaza Strip is a graveyard for thousands of children, the United Nations has said.

                  Since October 7, Israeli attacks have killed at least 10,000 children, according to Palestinian officials. That is one Palestinian child killed every 15 minutes, or about one out of every 100 children in the Gaza Strip.

                  But I guess a random kid like you online knows better than the United Nations and we should trust you when you roll on the floor crying “no no no no no it’s not real everyone else is wrong Israel isn’t the baddy we’re not doing a genocide”?

                    Where did I talk about absolution? You’re doing it again, you’re being dishonest and you refuse to even acknowledge what I’m saying. How is it not you rolling on the floor crying foul? And you want sources for the obvious? Like what, you want sources on the roof knocking or the public announcement? Is that your best counter argument?

                    And no, it is not the rest of the world and it is not the United Nations that stand united against Israel. You want me to post a source on how the US, UK, Germany and 56 other countries voted last time? If you want to convince anyone please stick to the facts!
