It seems like a Jewish right wing are determined to start a Middle East war and WWIII . Israel is the equivalent of a Fascist state and it’s time to call them out as such .
But these IDF murderers are only defending themselves.
You completely ignored what happened to the ICC prosecutor in my post. That's my point and you know it. There can't be prosecutions, it won't be allowed. Your reply was just awkward distraction. Please reread and reply to the point.
They are entitled to defend themselves, something something.
Ah, you just have to sit back and admire the Israelophilia. Only a matter of time before an Irish soldier is killed at the hands of our favourite "historically oppressed" nation (who nobody is allowed criticize).
God forbid it happens, but this thread likely to go radio-silent from the pro-colonists when it does. At least for a while.
But you can be sure the chronic anti-semitism accusers will bide their time and pounce on those bold enough to call out the land-grabbing child killers.
there would be a lot of cheering in Iran too , I dont think their people would be too upset
Any chance we could have some sort of citation for these claims?
Nah I think these Arab states are sick of the pyromaniacs in Israel and Iran and won't want a bigger, more destructive war (which is inevitable way things are heading) even if Israel wins that war. Can't exactly be good for business anyway.
In your list, parts of Lebanon are being "Gazified" as we speak (or type). That is hardly something any people living in that country will be happy with now is it (whatever their opinions of either Iran or Hezbollah)?
Netanyahu seems to have gone totally off the deep end. Thinks he's the Jewish Messiah, leading his armies in an epic global struggle.
Delulu, would be ridiculous if it wasn't so serious IMO.
How many will Evil Israel kill tonight ?
No comments on idf deliberately targeting irish troops? You can still be in favour of the israelis attacking iran while also criticising them for putting irish lives in danger.
I don't actually think anyone who isn't dangerously stupid or shilling for the Killing Regime thought it was accidental.
Would be some accident to take out Coms and CCTV.
Recent strike on the Hezbollah finance bunker, believed 1.5bn dollars and 2000lbs of gold evaporated.
That's a blow that will take a long time to recover from.
No it wouldn't. You are just making nonsense up now.
Also the vast majority of projectiles are going the other way.
I would think that cutting a head off while simultaneously trying to tape it back on is too difficult
There will be great celebrations from Lebanon, to Syria, much of Iraq and Arabia the evening that Israel hammer the Mullahs in Tehran.
If they kill the Ayatollah, they'll be Arabs wearing yarmulkes.
Israel deliberately targeting UN soldiers -

Israel is a criminal entity. Imagine deliberately targeting peacekeepers.
You've had 3 days now to prove your point that murdered civilians were being used by Hamas as shields. Could you not prove it?
Details of the smaller arms shipments from the US to Israel this past year
A couple of people I know did a stint on a kibbutz, both say that the Israelis are the most racist people they have ever met, and their treatment of the Palestinians is appalling.
A friend with a great interest in judaism went to Israel for a visit, came back hating the Israelis.
My own interactions with Israelis - all outside Israel - have been on the negative side, with exceptions. Terribly defensive people, islamophobes, arrogance to a high degree.
Intent is the main factor, that's why it can be difficult to prove acts of genocide as it could be argued that the deaths were as a result of civilians being killed inadvertently, random acts of mass murder by armies etc.
Edit: I meant to say it could be argued in the context of a lack of proof of intent to destroy in whole, or in part, the group. There isn't a cut off point after which it is genocide either, and the group increasing in size doesn't mean an act of genocide has not occurred.
I'm not dropping bombs on anyone, except maybe sands and a few others and they deserve it.
I don't unquestionably support Israel. I just despise Hamas and Hezbollah. Two terrorist organisations that have caused incredible damage to their own people.
They provide no path to peace. Israel aren't going anywhere. Some adults are required in the room, and it's not them. Not Bibi either in the near future.
We had work trips out there all the time. Never met one who went who didn't love it.
Tel Aviv is an absolutely cracking city. Great Pubs, restaurents, nightlife. The Isrealis are good craic. You can talk about anything.
Also a generally great vibe. Loads of young people on the Kibbutz hippie trail, etc. In my experience it was surprisingly relaxed. I had initally expected more tension. Jerusalem is fanatastic.
Their blood is on the hands of Israel and hamas. By not assigning any responsibility to Israel, who are actually dropping bombs on Gaza, you are are really showing you unquestionable support for whatever the hell they do. Your name is very appropriate for that sort of thinking as is the other sheep named user with the exact same views as you on this thread
Interactions with everyone basically. He said he didn't feel it was a warm and welcoming country or tourist friendly to non-Jewish people (and this was someone who went there expecting to love the place). He came away saying 'never again' to himself and then the October 7th attacks happened a few months later.
The ICJ has agency. Those members won't be swayed by anyone.
The little girl in the ambulance is probably a war crime and the people who did it should be hung, drawn and quartered. Other instances too.
However, continously shouting 'Genocide' and 'War Crime' is just incorrect, and just a transparently clear effort to place all responsibility on the 'Zionest Entity'.
Of the 20,000 dead civilains, the vast majority are just needless casualities of an utterly pointless war. Their blood is one hands of Hamas.
Agreed. There is a reason that arrest warrants haven't been issued for Nethanyahu and Gallant, and IMO it's all down to US pressure.
Well, they'll have a hell of a problem arresting Dief and Ismail Haniyeh.
Hamas, or the remnants, are still fighting.
Those warrents have yet to be issued.
Again, we'll see what happens.
I've friends in Tel Aviv. I'll give you their feedback. …..Feelings about the future are mixed. Most are hopefully that a peaceful solution to all this can be found. ….

I wonder who they feel they can make peace with, in view of them having attacked so many neighbours, so many times - causing so much destruction, so many injuries and killing so many of their neighbours. The only people they can "make peace" with are leaders who don't represent their people, like Sisi and the king of Jordan who rely on enormous repressive forces to rule.
One of them believes that Israel won't exist in 20 years times. Says it's only a matter of time before they are subject to an attack that they can't contain.
I too believe that Israel won't exist for ever, but I don't know when it will disappear.
When that happens, I believe that it will be as much down to internal dissent and strife as attack from outside. There have been plenty of articles about emigration from Israel, one recent article mentioned that the best-educated people are quietly emigrating, saying nothing to anybody till they're gone. This has been going on for a long time now, but ramped up last year when Nethanyahoo got back into office.
It moved up several notches more after October 7 2023 for various reasons - in many cases, well-educated youngsters have no interest in joining the army and even less in forming a family somewhere that the future is so uncertain, and even unsafe. In others, professional families with children want their children to grow up somewhere they have a chance at a normal childhood, and not to grow up in a constant state of fear.
Needless to say every time someone disappears in this way, someone in their social or work circles will start to question their own future, and depending on other circumstances, this can turn into a nuclear-style reaction with each departure being the detonating force for two or more further people leaving, until the only ones left are those with no option but to stay. It may not come to this, but as I read the situation - and given reports in the media over the past several years regarding numbers arming themselves with a foreign passport - I feel it is more likely to happen than not.
I have some friends in the medical field who volunteered to help out in the region; they only care about helping human beings, I think they are mad to be there though we are all different, sadly so many of them have been killed.
Any form of dialogue would be a huge step forward though based on mainstream media reporting of what is going on in the region, that seems a very distant prospect.
I actually agreed with you… And gave the wording the ICJ used.
I've posted this a few times now.
The IDF were told in the last week that Hamas are defeated in Gaza.
The ICC prosecutor has requested arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant, plus three Hamas leaders.
Should warrants be issued and perpetrators arrested, they will be tried and if found guilty, sentenced.
