Within minutes of the International Criminal Court issuing arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Security Minister Gallant last month, came a flood of condemnations, an array of whataboutisms and countless allegations of antisemitism and “blindness.” But the true blindness is our society’s insistence, even now, to not see what we are doing in Gaza.
Starvation as a weapon, high-rise buildings bombed to take down an alleged “lookout,” lax rules of engagement and disproportionate use of firepower. We got to this point as a society by closing our eyes, covering our ears and shutting down any and every opposing voice.
This disastrous reality of endless bloodshed should’ve ended with a ceasefire and hostage deal long ago. Not because of the International Criminal Court’s decision, but because the reality is immoral and unbearable.
"We are now being dragged to occupy, annex, ethnically cleanse - look at the north of the Gaza Strip - transfer, call it whatever you want, and to settle in Jewish settlements. That is the matter."
The former soldier who made the statement above is not one of our testifiers. Far from it. These are the words of Moshe Ya’alon, the former IDF chief of staff and Israel’s former defense minister. And he didn’t misspeak, either.
When pressed, he only reiterated and reaffirmed his statements. "I stand behind the phrase 'ethnic cleansing.' I must warn you about what is happening here and is being hidden from us. War crimes are being committed here," he said, adding that he was speaking "on behalf of commanders who operate in the northern Gaza Strip and have been approaching me with dread."
His comments were quickly pounced on by many in Israel’s right. A former defense minister and chief of staff accusing the IDF of ethnic cleansing? This is a man who, during the Second Intifada, spoke of "searing the consciousness" of Palestinians. While he’s an opponent of the current government, he’s about as far from a Palestinian rights advocate as one can be.
A cynical word of advice for Ya'alon: if you want to say the IDF is ethnically cleansing northern Gaza without drawing the ire of the Israeli right, all you have to do is endorse what you're describing. Minister Bezalel Smotrich did exactly that last week, telling the heads of local councils in the West Bank that “We can occupy Gaza and decrease the population by half within two years.”
No one in the room called Smotrich delusional. No one there called him a traitor or a disgrace to the state of Israel. When Minister Avi Dichter called for a second Nakba, the only consequence he saw was Prime Minister Netanyahu telling him to "be sensitive."
But even had Netanyahu punished him for saying that, he would only still be shooting the messenger. The double standard around criticizing the IDF's actions exposes that all sides are seeing the same calamitous picture, but any who call on the calamity to stop are publicly berated in order to intimidate anyone else from further dissent.
The reality is that we are starving the residents of northern Gaza. Entire neighborhoods have been wiped out. Buildings that weren't bombed or shelled were torched by soldiers. The rest were scraped away by bulldozers. The fact that even someone like Ya’alon understands this only emphasizes what we all already know - stopping this is a moral imperative.

The ongoing genocide of Gaza brought the true face of the hypocrites of the world.
From NATO nations, to Arabs and Muslims and all those who looking the other way or directly or indirectly helping the genocidal regime of Netanyahu to keep on murdering, starving and torturing over 2 million Palestinians.
None of them ca say they didn't know....

‘Everyone is a target’: A dozen killed waiting for food in Gaza
In Khan Younis, an Israeli air strike targeted a group of Palestinians waiting to receive food from an aid convoy, killing at least 12 people and wounding an unknown number of others.
“These people were receiving aid, they were not part of the resistance, they were just getting aid, vegetables. Civilians were targeted, everyone is a target.”

The Israeli military has killed three workers with the World Central Kitchen ( #WCK) and at least two other people in an air strike on a vehicle in #KhanYounis, southern Gaza, in what was the third deadly attack on the aid group this year.
The US-based #charity, which runs community kitchens in Gaza, said it had paused its operations in Gaza after the attack on Saturday.

“Specifically a quadcopter that drops bombs containing tiny fragments that are nearly invisible to the naked eye. These projectiles penetrate the bodies of our workers, causing severe bleeding and damage to internal organs,” he said.

Read it again, he wasn’t hit by shrapnel, he was hit by the wave of an explosion, he wasn’t hit by a Palestinian resistance, he was hit by an Israeli IDF soldier operating a drone shooting at a doctor inside a hospital.
You can love Israel as much as you want, but watching such disgusting crimes happen day after day without you responding, says more about **YOU ** than it does about Israel.
What does it take for the world to say enough is enough?

I’m so freaking sick the hypocrisy of the world and the silence of almost everyone who don’t seems to have any empathy for the victims of the out of control genocidal regime of Netanyahu.
The fucking “world” didn’t even lift a finger when these pigs recorded gang raping one of their victims. Why would they care about a man they can’t even pronounce his name being killed during one of those rape/torture sessions that Israeli soldiers do to defend themselves.
Gaza was a test. And accurately uncovered how disgustingly inhumane people are. If the live broadcast of an ongoing genocide doesn’t get them to stop their support of Israel, then it just simply proves that their hate of Palestinians, Arabs abs Muslims is far greater than their fake humanity.
And for the case of Dr Adnan Elbarsh, he will be just another name on the long list of the victims of the colonialist project of Israeli state.

The United States, which has blocked four other resolutions, said it vetoed the most recent version because it did not make the release of hostages a precondition for a truce.
#GenocideJoe is really showing the world how disgusting he truly is.
And I bet they still blame #Hamas for not supporting the #ceasefire deal.

Israeli occupation army persists in its systematic and deliberate targeting of aid workers and their centers for the past 13 months, in an attempt to spread chaos and impose famine on Palestinians amid its severe siege of the Gaza Strip, which prevents the entry of essential supplies.
