Wym ‘opinion’
Nor is it possible to ignore what has been happening in some Israeli military units, including special forces, where the best and most daring soldiers serve. There have been too many incidents of cruel shooting at civilians, of destruction of property and homes, even when this should not happen. There is too much looting and theft from homes, about which in many cases Israeli soldiers have boasted. Some have gone as far as posting about their antics online. Israelis are committing war crimes.
There have been too many incidents of cruel shooting at civilians…
Is this the opposite of empathetic and humane shooting at civilians?
Seems like his issue is more about them getting caught doing it.
Don’t get fooled by former israeli leaders. They are just exposing the truth in this current war but them themselves commit war crimes. Like Ehud Olmert used white white phosphorus while he was prime minister
First, starving out Gaza. On this issue, the position of senior government figures is public and clear. Yes, we’ve been denying Gazans food, medicine and basic living needs as part of an explicit policy. Netanyahu, typically, is trying to blur the type of orders he’s been giving, in order to evade legal and criminal responsibility in due course. But some of his lackeys are saying so outright, in public, even with pride: Yes, we will starve out Gaza. Because all Gazans are Hamas, there’s no moral or operational limitation on exterminating them all, over two million people.
Nuh uh!! That’s antisemitism!! Look what you’ve made us do!! Now you’ve made us bomb a hospital full of different semite children simply out of spite!! It’s actually you’re fault they are all dead and dying!!
This is just ass covering because history will not look kindly on state sanctioned mass murder.
Fixed spelling error.
This is now a private political war
Implying there was a time when it wasn’t.
Also before anyone gets too hopeful, this guy is a disgraced former politician who was jailed on corruption charges. He doesn’t have the political baggage preventing him from speaking his conscience, which is pretty rich of him considering he led this particular escapade, but I digress. What I want to say is that this shouldn’t be taken as a sign that Israeli leadership is speaking out against the genocide, because Olmert isn’t Israeli leadership.
Also breaking news, the sky is blue
Let them say it. Never forget who stayed mum while hundreds of children were vaporized every day for a year and a half but let them speak now.
Bombing kindergartners a war crime?
