For Zionism being all about the “land of Israel”, and wanting to build “greater Israel”, why do they hate and abuse the land so much? I mean ok, they hate the people, I get that, they are fascist colonizers. But why the land? They do the same to the West Bank when they destroy centuries old olive groves, and that’s in their supposed “Judaea and Samaria” that they are supposed to love so much that they want to ethnically cleanse.
Yes they permanently scar important agricultural land that may be necessary to the future of humanity for basically no reason, but asking them nicely to stop would be antisemitic.
I see on social media and Reddit of Israel-apologists and obvious Hasbara accounts saying the white phosphorus are for smoke covers. Like, sure, the smoke from burning bodies of victims of white phosphorus provide smoke covers.
Are you suggesting that Real Jews should die for lack of smoke cover from the bodies of untermench children? Do you think dead burned untermemench are worth more than a life from the master race? Antisemite!
Welcome to North Bank
Again. Again again.
They keep doing this.

Sanctions on Russia: 20 Sanction Packages
Sanctions on Israel by EU and HERE (harder to find any) 3 Sanction Packages
Israel war crimes in the war on Gaza. They’ve cut electricity, fuel, food and water to Gaza’s population and severely curtailed life-saving humanitarian aid, all of which are acts of collective punishment. The ICC has issued arrest warrants naming Israeli leaders and alleging war crimes and crimes against humanity (including starvation as a method of warfare). They have also been accused multiple times of attempting genocide. Israel is accused of the gravest war crimes - how governments respond could haunt them for years to come

FACTBOX - Ukraine and Gaza wars compared
The Israeli wars are just dirtier than anything most have seen or heard of. In the UK you are more likely to be awarded something for protesting against the Russian invasion of Ukraine than anything else. But protesting against the more violent, more aggressive and more illegal wars commited by Israel will likely get you arrested and possibly treated as a terrorist.
Let that sink in.
In the UK if you protest against a genocide in another country, the government have ordered the Police to arrest you.
Petition: End the prosecution of peaceful protestors in the UK)
Good comparison and data, but I’d like to point out that the leading stats are actually 16k civilians killed in Ukraine (and 46k injured), as per the source. While in Gaza there are 72k direct deaths and 172k injured (mostly civilians and 50% women and children)
It’s disgusting how Western governments still approach one country with all possible sanctions, and the other is just business as usual (and finger wagging if we’re “lucky”).
There are so many sources citing different figures, I just picked the one that is mostly used by media. Also, it is believed that the figures in Gaza are much higher than the figures that the data shows. But without proof, I didn’t/couldn’t link it.

Largely agree with what you wrote, but let’s not whitewash russia to make isreal look bad in comparison. They have absolutely used/been using white phos munitions on Ukrainian civilians
Edited. Thanks. Wasn’t whitewashing Russia at all. I used Qwant, DDG, Google, and even asked a couple of AI bots, but couldn’t find anything about Russia using it. But I never said that they didn’t, because I am well aware that they commit war crimes too.
Huh. Thats concerning if those kind of general searches about russian warcrimes are being suppressed. For reference, I remembered the bakhmut thing offhand so my search query for the article I linked was something super specific like “2023 bakhmut phosphorous”
Yeah, I’ll have a look through my history and see how I phrased it, but it was something like “accusations of Russia using white phospherous or illegal weapons and war crimes” in a few different ways.
ai was useless (no surprises) but thought I would see if it spat out anything different anyway. They just asked me for reference links to feed them with. Which I obviously didn’t have.
Not sure where you see the whitewashing of russia there?
The part where OP said there havent been any accusations of russia using white phosphorous bombs. There is proof of russia using those weapons in bakhmut in 2022, which is what I linked to.
Maybe he really didn’t know that russia used it too. I still don’t see strong evidence of him whitewashing Russia especially with his links about gross russian war crimes.
You can debate the word whitewash, but his point is valid - op said no WP, but there is evidence of WP.
Op also said that the comparison of condemnation can still be valid without the WP point.
I didn’t say no WP, I said I couldn’t find any accusations of it… and I couldn’t. But I have now added that link anyway.
Would you look at that, a wild genocide connoisseur appeared!
Go fucking extinct with your comparisons of human suffering. The only thing you prove is your own lack of morals. The only thing you achieve is total disrespect to those suffering.
I was not comparing the wars for the wars. I was going to explain at the end, I ran out of time, but I naively thought it would be understood. I can only say what was in my head when I posted it. Or you did understand it, and approve of what’s happening.
I am not (I thought obviously) condoning any war.
I’m not saying that one war is “better” or “worse” than any other war.
My main point (really, my only point) is that Starmers government compared the two and decided that one is bad and the other is good.
Despite all the atrocities that Israel do (which I was trying to accentuate in the post) - People are getting locked up as terrorists for agreeing with Palestine action.
it’s fucking ridiculous
in the UK we can be arrested for protesting against a genocide.
Where is the disrespect? They just point out the moral ambiguity of the west.
Nothing ambiguous about it. Insert family guy skin color swatches meme. You might be looking for the term “hypocrisy” instead.
Some of the politicians are definitely hypocrites yeah. And racism counts for some of it as well. But mainly I think it is good ol’ imperialism at work. The politicians feel they have to support Israel and they don’t know what to do about the genocide, and simply ignore it. This is not an excuse. Everyone complicit needs to go to the Haag.
Would you look at that someone blindly defending Israel.
new label… genocide supporter. there you go!
Oh… so they’re war criming against Lebanon exactly like they have their other enemies?
Can’t really say I’m surprised
Why are we bombing Iran when we should be bombing Israel instead?
Because they have nukes.
But honestly America could tank a few Israeli nukes. We need to just rip the bandaid off.
Because we made Israel for a reason, and it’s delivering.
Because both the usa and israel are terrorist states
Tap for spoiler
This is sarcasm
Say it with me, everyone:
ANTISEMITISM!
… Although I would not actually be surprised if a significant portion of the American population most supportive of Israel are really motivated by a desire to have a place for Jews to live so that they don’t live in the USA
Isn’t that why Israel was created out of thin fucking air to begin with? So Europe could have a place for Jews after moving them all out? Wasn’t Lord Balfour (of the Balfour Declaration) a white-supremacist anti-semite?
No one is angry enough.
i’m compartmentalized dude.
also if you’re the corbin i know, NEPHEW GET OFF THE NSFWS YOU ARE TOO YOUNG wait at least 7 years. crab jesus kid what happened to you
Daddy?
i said nephew. i may be a grampa but i ain’t got no kids.
An 11 year old Corbin… High School Musical fan parents spotted.
is that where my idiot brother got the name? i always thought it was after Jeremy Corbyn.
I’d probably just want to keep believing that vs HSM, lol.
i mean, i had a flatmate in college who would turn on the disney channel and watch high school musical every day. i told him if he was going to do that, at least take the TV (it was a big ol’ 13 incher. also mine.) back to his room because i didn’t want to watch it more than once a week. all i managed to absorb was that vanessa hudgens exists.
I was wondering why some of my friends were not reacting, then I remembered most of them are on antidepressants. I’m starting to think too many antidepressants users out there, and many of them probably take them because they can’t deal with the state of the world.
Oh, i am and some others too, but it would take someone with an army to fucking bomb Israel back to the stone age to stop those madmen. I never thought i would say that, but if Israel vanished in a giant nuclear fireball, it would be a net positive for the world at this point.
Israel disappearing would probably be a big step towards peace in the Middle East, given their tendency to start shit with their neighbors.
I told every politician that represents my address taking AIPAC money is a nonstarter for my vote a long time ago. They didn’t give a fuck. Being angry enough has nothing to do with it, they won’t / don’t care until supporting isn’t real starts losing them money.
This is SOP, they do it in Palestine and Syria.
The UN should investigate to determine if this is true.
Its been reported 1000s of times for decades. Israel doesn’t deny it’s use either, they just lie about the purpose of it’s use.
Majority of countries have signed onto international agreements to not use it during war because of how detrimental it is.
Israel uses it on civilian populations but lies about its battle use to get away with harming civilians and the growing fields that they depend on.
Edit: And to beat you to the hollow response, its been reported by the UN and the Human Rights Watch (UN Partners)
https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/10/12/israel-white-phosphorus-used-gaza-lebanon
dammit phosphorous is too good a fertilizer to waste it on war crimes what the fuck
Have it brought to the UN Security Council for discussion.
Lol, dolt
Israel has been using it for a long time and nobody does nothing.
If the UN investigates and determines that Israel is using white phosphorus, the UN could condemn Israel.
The UN has officially condemned Israel well over 100 times. I doubt one more will make much difference.
Did the US join the condemnation? If the UN determines that Israel has been using White Phosphorus in a way which violates the Geneva Convention, the US might join. Otherwise, Trump will have to explain the reason.
That’s an awesome level of naivety. Dude, wake up, Israel is committing genocide in broad daylight and the Orange is enabling them. You think some phosphorus will change anything?
Yes, because proving the use of white phosphorus in violation of the Geneva Convention is easier.
Are you a troll or what?
What’s wrong with suggesting that the UN investigate? Meghan Markle says she is the most trolled person in the world. Her only offense is marrying Prince Harry.
The usa may join lol. The usa is still defending israel and refuse to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza. Like people also said it is already confirmed that israel use it
Trump will have to explain the reason.
Trump hasn’t had any sane explanation for anything he has done this term. He doesn’t care. He just mumbles some gibberish and attacks the next country.
Even if he doesn’t care, he would still have to explain the reason he is not condemning Israel for illegally using white phosphorus.
You seem to have been misinformed about how things work in this world. Maybe try reading some newspapers.
lol what is that going to do to a fascist imperialistic madman? It’s like Chuck Schumer’s “strongly worded letters” to Trump
It would be embarrassing to Israel since they deny using it against the rules of the Geneva Convention.
What’s embarrassing is that the country trying to be a Jewish ethnostate is committing genocide. If that is not embarrassing enough, a violation of the Geneva convention definitely won’t be worse for them.
Both would be embarrassing but proving the illegal use of white phosphorus would be easier.
I CONDENM THANOS!
Perhaps if the UN confirms that Israel has been using White Phosphorus in violation of Geneva Convention rule, the Avengers could be assembled.
fuck the avengers this is a job for the x-men
Yes, from looking at the new trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Spider-Man and the Hulk will be busy.
It’s true, there were videos of it a few months ago. They’ve been using it for a long time
A UN report would have more weight.
