Israel are going to start WWIII

Here you are again pushing the lizard people Zionists are ruling the world conspiracy theory (which falls apart when you ask why then October 7th happened)

How about applying Ocamms Razor, that Israeli current government are a bunch of despicables and the current US administration is run by someone who considers this bunch the lesser of two evils, while the next administration won’t even be so nuanced and just want to build Trump resorts from the river to the sea

Especially enjoyed how you tried to paint Putin’s despicable puppy in Hungary, 10/10 for hilarious attempt

The zionists have officially prohibited any government official or body from communicating with, or advertising in, one of the largest newspapers in the country in retaliation for some negative coverage of their genocide.

Its bemusing that we're supposed to pretend that either the extensive network of pro-zionist lobby groups - often either directly funded by israel or closely involved with israel - throughout the US, UK and Europe either a) doesn't exist, or b) has spent the last century having no effect on policy towards israel.

What we are supposed to believe is that US/European totalitarian support for and assistance to a genocide carried out by israel just spontaneously self-organised in all these different countries in and around the same time by coincidence.

It’s amazing despite the banning of independent reporting in Gaza, the censorship of journalism, banning of news organisations and murder of journalists, the MSM give the country committing war crimes favourable coverage, even skewing facts that would threaten the positive narrative, like the Amsterdam Pogrom.

The below list is also from Haaretz. Some very interesting items.

• IRAN: Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said that death sentences, not ICC arrest warrants, should be issued for Israeli leaders.

• ISRAEL: Despite dozens of cases of detainees dying while in Israeli army custody since the war began, the IDF has only brought to trial 15 indicted soldiers for war-related offenses, Haaretz has learned. Of these offenses, most concern theft and arms trading, and none pertain to incidents causing death of a detainee.

• An Israeli strike that killed three journalists and wounded others in Lebanon on October 25 was most likely a deliberate attack on civilians and an apparent war crime, Human Rights Watch said, adding that the attack used a bomb equipped with a U.S.-produced Joint Direct Attack Munition guidance kit. There was no immediate comment from the IDF on the report. The group said the U.S. government should suspend weapons transfers to Israel because of the military's repeated "unlawful attacks on civilians, for which U.S. officials may be complicit in war crimes."

• 11 other journalists have been killed and eight wounded since the October 25 strike. The journalists killed in the October 25 strike were camera operator Ghassan Najjar and broadcast technician Mohammed Rida of the Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Mayadeen, and camera operator Wissam Qassim, who worked for Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV.

• Spanish airline Air Europa announced that it would continue to suspend flights to Israel through December 17.

• Three days before the ICC issued arrest warrants, Israel's Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara accepted the State Prosecutor's recommendation not to investigate statements suspected of incitement to harm civilians in Gaza made by senior public officials, including Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, sources told Haaretz. The statements reviewed by the State Prosecutor's Office were also presented to the International Court of Justice as part of South Africa's genocide petition against Israel.

"The goal of replacing Yoav Gallant with Israel Katz as Defense Minister is becoming clearer. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu put Katz there to light fires in the defense establishment –

and Katz is doing what is expected of him" – Amos Harel

I just can't remember who it was that acted like Netanyahu in the past. History repeating itself and yet some will still back him.There are people very close to him who should see the resemblance.

Doesn't matter a damn. There's arrest warrants out for Bibi and Gallant and that's what's worrying them. They are in the same boat as Hitler, Pol Pot etc now. Genocidal maniacs.

I heard some White House spokesman being tied up in knots by journalists about this. They say the ICC doesn’t have jurisdiction over Israeli war crimes in Gaza but the ICC does have jurisdiction over Russian war crimes in Ukraine. Despite jurisdiction being in place in Palestine since 2015 and jurisdiction in Ukraine coming into effect on January 1st 2025.

There was a Rabbi on the radio the other day (LBC) that mentioned that a lot of people in Israel actually tune into Al Jazera to get their news, because they believe that their own media coverage has been badly compromised/censored.

Given Netanyahu's attempts to marginalise Haaretz recently, I think that they may have a point.

Putin too, the favourite modern dictator of some of the posters here

Bombing your enemy from the air is one thing, going in on foot is another, and Israel has learned from past experiences. If they didn't have American weapons they'd have nothing.

More fire from Israeli forces in southern Lebanon

Israel, for the second time since the ceasefire came into force, has said its troops have fired shots in southern Lebanon.

"Over the past few hours, the IDF identified suspects in southern Lebanon and fired toward them," the IDF said. 

"The IDF remains in southern Lebanon and will actively enforce every violation of the ceasefire agreement."

Very disappointing from France

We've just received a statement from the French foreign ministry that implies Benjamin Netanyahu has immunity from the International Criminal Court arrest warrant in his name. 

The French appear to base their argument on the fact that Israel is not a party to the court.

"France will respect its international obligations, it being understood that the Rome Statute requires full cooperation with the International Criminal Court (ICC) and also provides that a state cannot be required to act in a manner inconsistent with its obligations under international law with respect to the immunities of states not party to the ICC," the ministry said in a statement. 

"Such immunities apply to Prime Minister Netanyahu and the other ministers concerned and must be taken into account should the ICC request their arrest and surrender."

No doubt it’s all to do with the Lebanon CF deal that France was a big part of securing. It’s utter bs, by that metric it doesn’t apply to putin either then. Such a farce.
