General Discussion

justify the 100s of thousands of innocent civilians, NGO physicians, and aid-workers whom the IDF has brutally killed since the initiation of the response to October 7. And, no, I would never claim Israel was not justified to go after Hamas after that horror against their citizens. Somehow, the argument against the genocide accusations--however inappropriate the term might be (now), loses most of its validity when you look at the ongoing callous deprivation and decimation of Gaza's citizen population

To let these innocent civilians starve- as has been occurring for more than a year now, or be systematically murdered by IDF ("accidentally," of course ) in line for the aid stations for food or medical care--one would think that NO ONE could even TRY to justify that- yet they do. The world was largely on the side of Israel for a long time after October 7, and their fight against Hamas--as they SHOULD have been. But Netanyahu has proven that he can be Israel's worst enemy in this--rapidly turning the caring world against him and Israel's policies and tactics. Israel IS a signatory to the Geneva Conventions and many others, yet... The world knows that Trump is a bumbling, corrupt, callous monster who cares nothing for the American people and our future. They likewise know the same about Netanyahu and Israel. Self-preservation apparently motivates both Über alles (yes, I meant to use that phrase as the literal meaning fits with both).

There is NO justification. NONE.
