Israel: "What are you gonna do about it?"
Send you more weapons, that'll teach you a lesson!
We have 2 of our best writers working on some very mean letters.
Sanctions are always a popular start
Fuck that send Nato peace keepers Edit for auto correct
They'll have to come up with a new lie to get this off the news. Maybe the UN Secretary General is Hamas.
They already say UN is hamas
or find a way to link him to the UNRWA, which they already managed to drag down
Like it wasn't already obvious
apparently not for everyone
Obviously is very different from legal decisions making.
(In effect) they were accused of trespassing while standing somewhere they shouldn't be. It's now gone through courts and legally convicted of trespassing.
Its the whole reason we have courts
We should not have needed the ICJ to rule on this. We have the sovereignty to act without them.
Unfortunately we also have the sovereignty to ignore the ICJ.

So you're saying that you should have been able to intervene in a foreign country without legal justification because of your beliefs that what they are doing is wrong.
You know, the whole issue with Russias invasion of Ukraine?
Palestine is not Israel.
And Ukraine is not Russia, US isn't Israel. Got a actual point?
Yeah. If it's not Israeli then we're not interfering in their domestic affairs.
Furthermore who we send our military aid to is nobody's business but our own.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
