@susurros @palestine as a grandparent, I can tell you that going after Ms R will cause a world of pain. If you weren’t paying attention because you were dealing with young children, #trump attacking a beloved children’s entertainer and educator will wake you up!

And protesting the #genocide in Gaza doesn’t make you anti semiotic. It makes you anti-genocide
There are #warcrimes being committed and the US is supplying the munitions

Jones is quite correct and all of this will be forgotten by next week.

'Remember the three British aid workers slaughtered by the Israeli state in Gaza almost exactly a year ago? Don’t feel embarrassed if not, given how swiftly the World Central Kitchen attack was memory-holed by British politicians and media outlets alike.'

#Gaza medic deaths just the latest in Israel’s long history of changing its story over civilian killings

"Often, at first, the IDF denies involvement. Sometimes – in the context of Gaza – it suggests one of Hamas’s own rockets fell short, causing the casualties.

Otherwise, it might allege that those killed were either combatants themselves, or collateral damage from the targeting of combatants.
If some have identified a pattern of obfuscation over the years, there is also a suspicion that it is in service of a wider aim: muddying the waters when an investigation is launched.

And when the #IDF does launch an investigation the results are often opaque and seldom lead to the most serious charges.

According to analysis conducted by Israeli human rights organisation, Yesh Din, published last year, the mechanism set up by the IDF’s general staff to investigate potential #warcrimes is designed to avoid responsibility while giving the impression that a process is taking place.

... “at least 664 complaints were transferred … for review.”

Of that, the organisation says, “542 (81.6%) incidents were closed without a criminal investigation, with “just 41 incidents (6%)” leading to a criminal investigation."

Breaking the Silence on Palestinian Armed Struggle: A Call for Legal Clarity

“Palestinian people’s use of force to resist foreign oppression and complete the establishment of an independent state is an inalienable right,” the Chinese Ambassador said, insisting that “the struggle waged by peoples for their liberation, right to self-determination, including armed struggle against colonialism, occupation, aggression, domination against foreign forces should not be considered terror acts”.
