Holocaust Survivor Demolishes Israel

The International Criminal Court will charge Israeli officials based on where their crimes took place -- Palestine, a recognized UN observer state which conferred jurisdiction. Biden accepted territorial jurisdiction for Putin in Ukraine. Gaza is the same. foreignpolicy.com/2024/05/07/bid…

BREAKING: This is central Rafah.

They are running for safety... but there's nowhere safe for them to go...

ALL EYES ON RAFAH

Israel & The Myth of 'Self Defence' David Hearst

'When genocidal intent is so conspicuous, so ostentatious, as it is in Gaza, we cannot avert our eyes. We must confront genocide, we must prevent it, and we must punish it'

The Biden administration claims International Criminal Court charges against Israeli officials will 'blow up' ceasefire negotiations, but history shows the opposite -- charges tend to marginalize extremist leaders, as occurred in Bosnia, Liberia, Uganda. foreignpolicy.com/2024/05/07/bid…

'I urge the Government of Israel to stop any escalation, and engage constructively in the ongoing
diplomatic talks' - UN chief António Guterres

'People in Rafah were displaced more than 9 times. They were first displaced from the northern area, then to the central area, then to Khan Younis, then to Rafah... whats different now is there is no place [for them to go]'

We congratulate #Namibia on becoming the first WHO African Region country to reach a significant milestone on the path towards eliminating vertical mother-to-child transmission of #HIV and viral hepatitis B. We salute all the health workers and communities for their effort to protect…

No, Biden, it's not that people forgot that on Oct. 7 Hamas brutalized Israelis, and took and continues to hold hostages. It's that Israel's bombing and starving of Palestinian civilians since then has been so devastating that it has taken center stage. trib.al/PxK0uoy

'What about the hostages? ' Here is the agreement supposedly approved by Hamas but rejected by Israel. The presumed guarantors - Qatar, Egypt, USA & UN would know how 'fair', authentic & consistent with UNSCR 2728 this is, and ensure its implementation

A military besiegement and ground incursion in #Rafah would pose catastrophic risks to the 600,000 children currently taking shelter in the enclave.

'What about the hostages?' Yes, Mehdi Hasan, ALL hostages: Israelis, Palestinians & others (including a Nepali) must be released immediately & unconditionally. But their plight is no justification for collective punishment of millions of Palestinians in Gaza, Rafah & elsewhere.

Gaza: Hundreds of thousands of children are experiencing trauma, injuries, illness, malnutrition & more.

UNICEF warns a ground incursion in Rafah would pose catastrophic risks & calls for the urgent protection of children there. unicef.org/mena/press-rel…

There is nowhere safe to go in Gaza for the 600,000 children of Rafah.

UNICEF calls for children to not be forcibly relocated, and the vital infrastructure on which children rely to be protected.

Nobody has threatened to destroy Russia! Putin seems to be trying to prepare the people of Russia for some dangerously provocative action by invoking an artificial scarecrow.

An exemplary US Senator Bernie Sanders. A man of principle who stands up for justice & equity. A true internationalist. Count on the people of Vermont to reelect him for the good of Vermont, USA & the world!

Today's forced evacuation orders in Rafah are unlawful and alarming.

The areas designated for relocation are devastated, crowded & devoid of key services. There are no assurances of safety or return once hostilities end for those forced to relocate.

The lesson from the Holocaust should not be to support the Israeli government regardless of its actions, but to uphold international human rights standards even when the Israeli government is violating them. tribune.com.pk/story/2465244/…
