  • Colombia has requested permission from the International Court of Justice to intervene in South Africa's case against Israel for genocide in Gaza, aiming to protect Palestinian safety and existence.
  • The ICJ has ordered Israel to ensure timely food supplies to Gaza and previously instructed Israel to refrain from actions under the genocide convention and to prevent genocidal acts against Palestinians, which Israel denies, attributing its actions to targeting Hamas rather than civilians.

Yeah because it can't be that they care about the Israeli government committing genocide and a shitload of other crimes against humanity because those actions are bad things to do 🙄

Diplomatic relations with Iran and lack of same is completely irrelevant to the facts of the matter.

Iran isn't forcing the Israeli government to massacre and starve to death tens of thousands of civilians, most of whom are children.

Iran cares about human rights? Their world view does not recognize human rights that cannot be instantly suspended in the name of religious superstition or fear. You obviously don't know what you're talking about.

Iran cares about human rights?

Nobody except you is talking about Iran. You can pack that ridiculous whataboutism away.

Their world view does not recognize human rights that cannot be instantly suspended in the name of religious superstition or fear

Sounds identical to Netanyahu and Ben-Gvir on that count.

You obviously don't know what you're talking about.

Right back at you, Hasbara Harry.

Tens of thousands of people starved to death?

What?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yes. I'm not going to elaborate since I checked your comment history and found out that you're either a paid Israeli government representative, an idiot gaslighting for free, or both.

Either way, I might as well try to explain to Donald Trump that there is such a thing as too much gold in interior design as try to make you acknowledge any of the many crimes against humanity being committed by the Israeli government in Gaza and the West Bank.

Have the day you deserve.

Eat shit buddy, you don't know me, as you know.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I know what you've been spewing about Gaza on here, which is plenty information to determine that I will NOT be eating the shit you're shoveling and that you have nothing but pro-apartheid genocide denying shit to offer on this particular topic.

You go have fun with that at the local Hasbara Fellowship while the rest of us deal with the objective reality you're denying.

Wow bud we get it, you feel so bad, you're such a good person. 30,000,000 deaths if war breaks out with Iran is going to make you shit yourself.

My bowel control has improved tremendously since I quit drinking a few years ago but sure, I'd be less than pleased should that come to pass.

I'm also going to be quite upset if the US invades Canada or Alex Jones becomes emperor of Europe, though. Both of those things are exactly as likely as a full scale war between Israel and Iran, let alone one with more then a third the casualties of WWII 🙄

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Read some books little kid.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You can repeat your lies and baseless assumptions that only ignorant people aren't unconditionally supporting the genocide of a fascist apartheid regime all you want, doesn't make any of it true 🙄

Blah blah blah, straw man straw man. 🙄

Make sure you have all your Israel-bad buzz words and zero substance whatsoever.

Honestly, how far did you go in school? I have to know.

Blah blah blah, straw man straw man.

The projection is strong with this one..

Make sure you have all your Israel-bad buzz words and zero substance whatsoever.

Every single word has a specific meaning that is true of the Israeli government. Just because you're brainwashed by decades of Zionist propaganda doesn't mean that words challenging your bias lose all meaning.

Honestly, how far did you go in school? I have to know.

I went all the way to Tunisia on a school trip once 😛

"You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about. Read some books little kid."

Whatever your age is, you sure as hell don't act it.
