Israel attacking innocents and commiting warcrimes?
Must be a day that ends in Y.
Now they know why the Israeli military coordinated with them to plan the path. So they could set up the ambush.
the "clearly marked" humanitarian vehicle
They're white. Except for the massive black markings. I don't think it can get much more obvious without bringing beacons and a sky writing display in.
UN prepares the extra angry pen for this letter
The Israeli forces made sure to avoid hitting marked UN panels. WFP forgot to draw text on their windows.
I have no idea how they could possiblytry to pass this off as even remotely acceptable, but I’m also quite sure they’ll try.
UN? I clearly read "HAMAS" on the sides of that car
*again.
Israeli forces fire on UN food agency's team in Gaza again.
Same thing I was gonna add..
It made me happy for a second to think we all agree and then kinda depressed that we all agree that Israel keeps attacking the volunteers just trying to help victims of their war.
Is anyone even surprised anymore?
Israeli Nazis don't suprise me any longer.
Fucking war criminals.
As are those who support them.
Let's never forget the enablers of the Zionist Genocide.
They say Hamas are terrorists because they attack innocent civilians and that may be true, but it seems that by the same metric, aren't the IDF also terrorists for attacking innocent civilians in clearly marked vehicles ?
Verily i say more, If we go by how much civilian infrastructure and casualties have been committed, one side is clearly acting more strongly within the definition of terrorist than the other.
But the idf aren't brown????
Nor Muslim
Gaza, mostly thanks to Israel, remains the most dangerous conflict for aid workers now and perhaps in history.
Don't forget when IDF killed 3 Israeli hostages escaping Hamas who were shirtless, unarmed, and waving a white flag.
At every turn, Israel and Bibi need to be associated with Russia and Putin — for that's exactly how they behave.
Worry not: Biden will quickly pass an executive order for an emergency shipment from the US to Israel of bullets to replace the ones those brave IDF soldiers spent defending themselves from that evil UN Humanitarian vehicle.
Wouldn't want them to be low on bullets if, God forbid, they're faced with an even more dangerous assailant such as, for example, a Palestinian 5 year old child.
Seems like we need a peacekeeping force stationed in Israel. Headed by one of the EU members preferably, since we cant trust the US to be impartial.
Germany is still shipping weapons to Israel.
Faced with a modern version of Nazism, some EU members can't be trusted to not support them even when they're in the middle of executing their very own version of the Holocaust, probably because that view of human beings as inherently superior or inferior depending on their etnicity (aka ubermenshen and untermenschen) is alive, well and as strong as century ago.
The others (including my own country) just have different levels of bullshit when it comes the the Israeli Nazism and Genocide.
The only two EU nations that can be trusted on this are the Republic Of Ireland and Spain.
Guys you just don't understand... How is Israel supposed to fight Hamas when they're hiding in cans of vegetables!? It's not Israels fault that Hamas uses sandwiches to hide their operations in!
The only news media I saw today to name Israel as the perpetrators of the shooting.
Fuck me it's early. Read forces as a verb, not a noun.
Pretty fucked that Palestinians have to suffer because NGOs feel (and are) unsafe.
I did the same. Anything can be a garden path sentence if your tired enough.
What happens when you systematically deprive millions of people of food again? Either Israel doesn't know the answer to this question or it's a blatant GENOCIDAL ACT. There is literally no other option.
Israel continues to amaze me about how awful they can be.
Israel is a rogue state at this point, but everyone in power keeps pretending they're not because wE nEeD sTaBiLiTy In ThE rEgIoN or some such utter fucking nonsense.
I'm sure the IGF and government aren't upset about the pause at all
If you find it BAD to SHOOT FOOD AID WORKERS then you HATE JEWS because JEWS MURDER FOOD AID WORKERS!
Reported for the whole "JEWS MURDER FOOD AID WORKERS", and you really should specify Israelis or the IDF. "JEWS..." anything, really, is a bad look.
But I get where you're coming from:
Not once:
https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/05/14/gaza-israelis-attacking-known-aid-worker-locations
Not twice:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/21/middleeast/un-food-convoy-gaza-israel-strike-cmd-intl/index.htm
Multiple times:

Terrorists, war crime-rs, and genociders are what makes up the Israeli military.
It's just unfortunate that military service is compulsatory for most Israelis.
It was not compulsory for Ben Gvir, who was excused from compulsory service because the IDF at the tine thought he was too extreme. He has since been convicted of terrorism, and currently serves as Israel's minister of defense.
A community for discussing events around the World
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.
