You Spelled ‘Hamas’ Wrong, ‘Guardian’


Hamas can stop this horror. They can release any of the hostages that are still alive and lay down their weapons.

“Seldom have I heard the leader of a state so clearly outline a plan that fits the legal definition of genocide,” said Josep Borrell, the former EU foreign affairs chief. The international court of justice ruled in January last year that there was a “plausible risk” of genocide. Amnesty International, a UN special committee and leading scholars, including within Israel, have concluded that genocide is taking place.

And you're angry about it because its the 'wrong' side? 

Openly envisioning the total destruction of Gaza, pursuing the removal of its population as a goal rather than a battlefield consequence, and destroying the means by which life is sustained, looks not merely like brutality but a deliberate project of elimination.

I wonder why the rest of the Muslim world isn't making as much of a fuss about it as the white progressives? Or offering safe refuge?

Egypt and Jordan have refused to accept refugees, saying that they would otherwise be complicit in war crimes.

Oh, never mind. I just remembered why they aren't doing that...

As I argue elsewhere with the Gazans useful idiots, if the Israeli government was intent of "genocide" it would have happened on the 8th of October
