In a First, Leading Israeli Rights Groups Accuse Israel of Gaza Genocide
Israel says it is fighting against Hamas, not Palestinians as a group. But two of Israel's best-known rights groups -- long critical of Israeli policy -- now say they disagree.

The Israelis even got MTG to squirm.

So people who criticize everything Israel does, criticized Israel with even more hyperbolic language.
Is this going to slow down development of the Trump Gaza resort?

Probably not.

60.000 dead Gazans so far since October 6th, the majority women and children.
Hundreds of children already dead from starvation.
Excuse us if we think Israel is wrong for killing tens of thousands of noncombatants and starving children to death.

If Hamas says it, it must be true.
Meanwhile, in the real world: 5-year-old with genetic illness falsely used to accuse Israel of starving children in Gaza

You prefer the way Yigal Amir criticized Israel. Much more effective than mere words.

Video and pictures don't lie. The world is seeing images of starving people. This is purposeful. The Israeli government are who've been blocking aid. They're the ones who bomb hospitals and shoot civilians trying to get food.
I'm not an anti-Semite by any stretch. I am anti-Netanyahu and his right wing ilk who're perfectly willing to see every Gazan dead.
What's the difference between that and "from the ocean to the sea?" IMO, Netanyahu and his ilk are committing genocide.

Really? Here's some video and pictures for you: https://x.com/IDF/status/1950094080160997593
"Contrary to Hamas's false claims that the individuals in the video are security personnel, they are in fact Hamas terrorists who arrived to seize the aid from Gaza's residents," the military stated. "Even when aid is delivered into Gaza, Hamas loots it for its own use, blatantly disregarding the needs of the population." The video was released days after The New York Times quoted anonymous IDF officials saying that there was no evidence to suggest that Hamas routinely stole humanitarian aid. https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-862584

Although we saw what hugs and kisses got the Israelis before Netanyahu came to power. Terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians pretty much every month, if not every week. By the same Palestinians who whine about their own incidental casualties.

Like when Yigal Amir sent a love letter to Yitzhak Rabin. With friends like that, who needs Palestinians?

Hey ------,
Don't you get it yet?
What Netanyahu is doing is unconscionable.
You're like an ignorant child who discovered there's a conflict between Israel and its Palestinian occupants on October 7.

Wait. I'm confused. I though all those Gazan folks were Hamas terrorists, women and children included. Now we want to feed them? And be upset with our Israeli pals? And how much will this cost the US, who could be feeding foreigners at the expense of hungry Americans? My mind is spinning.
This is the problem of being an absolutist in a world of coloring and shading. Der Dotard has attacked various universities for 'anti-Semitism' and protests against Israeli action, but now appears to be in agreement with a central tenet of the protesters, i.e., that Israel is committing human rights violations, using hunger as a weapon, and is coming close to committing genocide. Meanwhile people are dying and Der Dotard wants to be thanked for food aid that amounts to a drop in a bucket...

I don't believe Trump cares about anything other than building Trump Towers where the Gaza Strip once was.

The Israeli government has stopped untold numbers of aid convoys and refused to open other corridors so they can get in.
Then, they insisted on replacing NGOs with their own distribution system that's been a disaster.

Yeah, no easy answers.
If Israel allows in aid by third parties, of course it will be used for smuggling weapons since locals will be involved throughout. If Israel does it themselves, like the current plan, Hamas will stir up trouble to stop the distributions and make Israel look bad. Because the suffering of Palestinians has always been the best tool Hamas has in its belt.
Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar believes Palestinian deaths are necessary sacrifices' nypost.com
