Sending out IEDs that will probably explode in a supermarket and kill civilians is generally considered a war crime. So far 2 kids killed in Beirut by the Israeli bombs in devices.

Reminder that the main Houthi demand is for an end to the genocide in Palestine
Apartheid country going to apartheid
Well the BBC headlines are getting better. Previously it would have been ‘IDF says suspected terrorists dead’.
30 licenses suspended. 320 more to go.
The only news media I saw today to name Israel as the perpetrators of the shooting.
“Displacement”? Can we just be clear and call it ‘ethnic cleansing’
All points on that curve, at the same time just now, for undefined values of now.
Strangely enough the people who make up largest market for drugs are never stopped and searched because they are rich middle class people.
“Sudan and other places”.
Dude !
Labour have kept changing policies all over the place so have been difficult to predict.
Haha that was funny. Mentioning the Gulf of Tonkin incident as justification for war and really meaning it
Why do you think Israel has bombed and totally destroyed all universities and libraries in Gaza?
“On one occasion, a handful of children, all about ages 5 to 8, were carried to the emergency room by their parents. All had single sniper shots to the head.”
How much of a shitty person do you have to be, to snipe little kids in the head?
From memory, Iran last invaded another country 300 years ago. Israel…
Genocide. You know they are attempting to commit genocide and you help out. That is being complicit.
There is an “Obligation to prevent genocide (Article I)” which, according to the ICJ, has an extraterritorial scope. See the Genocide Convention Fact Sheet here https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/documents/Genocide Convention-FactSheet-ENG.pdf
Sanctions for speaking up against apartheid
No it was not a small attack. It was light infantry against a full miltary but not small. It was planned and they stockpiled weapons and material to last months. What they were not expecting was to walk over the IDF military on the border (none of the videos released by the IDF show Hamas doing this). They were not expecting to get throught the defences so easily to get to the settlements. Remember most of the population of Gaza was ethnically cleansed from the land that these settlements are built on.
They are still fighting. The IDF is using tanks in urban warfare (this is a big tactical no no), so Hamas have the IDF where they want them. Even 2 months into the fighting we still see daily videos of IDF tanks (USD 3 million) being destroyed by rocket launchers (USD 200).
Strategically the Palestinians were being thrown under a bus by the rest of the Arabs so this attack put Hamas in control. It also destroyed the image of Israeli comptence which is a huge propaganda win.
If you look at the prisoner exchanges and the interviews afterwards you see the Israeli prisoners were treated well in captivity and the release was well managed and competent. This especially does not align with the story in the NY Times here. The release of the Palestinian prisoners was chaotic (tear gas was used in some places) and the prsioners were tortured and released with broken bones in some cases.

What sort of army does not fight against an invading force? Is this why Hezbollah exists?
