General Israel/Palestine discussion thread - Part 4

"Piracy" because they chose to ignore the lawfully declared IDF maritime embargo during wartime..

So when you accuse them of piracy, you lied, as we all know that the definition of piracy means to attack boats and steal their stuff.
 
They are pirate ships, because they set out on a mission to confront a legal maritime blockade.

It's easy to spot HAMAS-loving pirates when I see them.
Aaarrrrghhhh, matey!
 
Never got an answer to my query:

If the existing condition is named 'genocide' then what will it be called when the 'gloves come off' ?
Can someone please invent a new word to describe the next phase, when HAMAS refuses to go along with the program and the IDF increases actions? (genocide is considered the epitome of human evil and is often viewed as a unique and extreme atrocity).

BBC is reporting that HAMAS is not willing to accede with the 20-point-plan.
CBS is reporting that HAMAS is 'leaning towards' accepting it.
QATAR is saying the plan will need revisions, clarifications, adjustments.
Yvette is saying that if HAMAS rejects the plan, he calls on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “declare clearly and unequivocally now - by not accepting Trump’s plan, HAMAS is forcing us to immediately close all crossings into Gaza. No humanitarian aid, no electricity, water, or fuel. Enough is enough.”

Yom Kippur begins, Israel shuts down.
Shalom.
Yes, on Yom Kippur most of Israel will be saying the following prayer. Its never been more appropriate than today, considering the horrible behavior of the IDF in Gaza. May God forgive them.

Is Egypt allowing a flow of 'dire straits' refugees to leave Gaza?
If the answer is "no" we're just proving, ipso facto, that Egypt is refusing to allow them exit at Rafah.

Trump is hopefully going to start demanding that they allow it.
From Gaza's southern reaches to elArish, a reverse-caravan of humanity, all desiring to reach a place that isn't Gaza.
Egypt owes the USA, bigly.
It's payback time.
Sisi can eliminate all his Sinai headaches (with all the ad-hoc terrorists now gathered there, a NewState of Palestine can work towards exerting State control over these lawless hinterlands of Egypt), and relieve the Egyptian Army from all concern over "security" in N.Sinai, should Gen. Sisi elect to allow that duty be taken over by the International Community Forces whose sole job will be to supervise the demilitarization of this NewState of Palestine and maintain a semblance of order for these millions of war refugees who want to go elsewhere at this time, in anticipation of being given "newPalestine" citizenship for future immigration back to the (expanded) coastal enclave, under different rules.

Yeah, just like the terrible and ultimate crimes of 'genocide' we've been committing diligently and methodically (!), the State of Israel is also going to embark on 'ethnic cleansing' to boot, by permitting/facilitating mass humanitarian convoys to exit Gaza Strip. And for the trifecta, let's add in some more 'starvation' for everyone in Gaza, because that goes along perfectly with the entire mess that HAMAS created for the people they 'govern' ----

BTW, I seem to recall some mention of 'opening the gates of hell' on Gaza (a reminder from the West Wing at 1600 Pennsylvania Av.) so let's see how that turns into IDF action on the ground.

Every man, woman and child in Gaza City is being told that by remaining where they are, the IDF will consider them to be HAMAS-affiliated, and no longer just 'innocent' civilians, but rather, enemy combatants and their supporters. We know what comes with being so designated --- they'll be facing overwhelming advancing armor and engineering demolition teams. No Mercy.

It's been a busy week.
Blockade-busters Busted.
Hezbollah bleating about having to disarm.
Syria trying to get into the Abraham Accords.
Yemen's maniacs seem to have lost their appetite for more mayhem.
Gaza's HAMAS executives just narrowly escaped (they were likely given heads-up to take a bathroom break just at the right time).
Whoooo Weeeee, if you aren't intrigued by all that, then what does float your boat?!
 
You lie again.
Those ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ on the flotilla can be called many things.
"Pirates" is the least of 'em.

Can you imagine the logistics, the manpower, the myriad of sea-going navy vessels (perhaps even a submarine) all that had to be diverted from patrols along Israel's coastal perimeter, while threats still exist from HAMAS infiltrations, or Hezbollah commandos, or even from Syria, which is not too far up the way from Nahariya.

The whole thing these 'activists' planned just stinks to high-heaven, and I hope every one of those sailboats is confiscated and given to organizations in Israel that are tasked with rehabilitating and engaging with wounded soldiers of the IDF. A fleet of pleasure craft would be just the right 'medicine' for them -- and even sweeter considering who 'donated' them to the cause!

That is not the definition of piracy.
Definition, Schmefinition.
Those feakshow lunatics need to go look for other adventures now.
This one's concluded. Mazal Tov.

(N.B. -- the last ship, Mikeno, is kinda missing off the radar, I've heard)

jt512, their attempt to interfere with the Israeli embargo is actually turning into a more serious case of HAMAS-support than previously imagined.
None of the 40 vessels participating in the Global Sumud Flotilla was carrying ANY humanitarian aid, according to the Israeli Foreign Affairs Ministry. As the boats were inspected at Ashdod (in anticipation of transferring some minor quantities of food, medicines and baby formula & diapers), their holds were found to be devoid of materials destined for Gazans at all.

Reports are now filtering in of more boats assembling for another attempt at provocation against the IDF.
At some point, the IDF will declare them to be "in the service of the enemy" and just sink 'em, with Italy's or Greece's navies having to fish the life-vest floaters out of the sea.

Hamas is resisting demands that they disarm. And honestly, I can understand why. I don't agree with them, but I understand their position.

If Hamas refuses to disarm, then Israel is justified in compelling their disarmament by force, over their objections and in spite of their resistance.
 
Running a military blockade is a hostile act. Sinking blockade runners is entirely justified.
Blockades are illegal when used to starve or to collectively punish a civilian population. In such cases, they are a war crime and potentially a crime against humanity.


Rule 53. The use of starvation of the civilian population as a method of warfare is prohibited

 
"Considering the horrible behavior of the IDF in Gaza...." -- Hercules56

Interesting that a combatant attacking armed belligerents in what has been called a war who have invaded his country who have committed myriads of war crimes including killing thousands of innocent unarmed civilians including hundreds of children is called a terrorist. Pretty sure this would be a legitimate combatant.

An example of a call to commit war crimes

Defense Minister Israel Katz said anyone remaining north of the corridor would be considered “a terrorist or a terror supporter”

The Deal is 100% Neo-Colonialism: a deal designed by Tech Brose with strong Israel connections to install a foreign rule with the veto and blessing of Israel to make sure that New Palestine will keep the belligerent locals ion line and teach them the error of their ways of wanting any self-determination in the first place.
It is very much an offer at gunpoint, and Hamas is hardly a legitimate representative of the Palestinians.

I am all for ending the killing years and decades ago, and anything that allows Palestinians to stay in their land means that there is still a chance of a future for them and their State.

But no one should for a second believe that the Palestinian People will or should consider the Peace Deal as legitimate or binding.

Clearly Mr Katz is a war criminal who must be tried. Innocent civilians who stay in the war zone cannot be unilaterally and indiscriminately declared to be terrorist, which is a designation for unlawful combatant. Such is a war crime.

Seems Israel is full of war crimes these days. No wonder they are pretty much the most hated country on the Earth, and Israelis the most hated nationality.

They act like they have done nothing wrong, and don't deserve to be resented and hated, but by standing up for and supporting what their government is doing, they are all basically co-conspirators, unless they can prove that they are standing up against their government's war crimes.
 
Donald's statement on Palestine and the Ceasefire

Nobel winning stuff here

"If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonald Trump
Hamas has been a ruthless and violent threat, for many years, in the Middle East! They have killed (and made lives unbearably miserable), culminating with the October 7th MASSACRE, in Israel, babies, woman, children, old people, and many young men and women, boys and girls, getting ready to celebrate their future lives together. As retribution for the October 7th attack on civilization, more than 25,000 Hamas "soldiers" have already been killed. Most of the rest are surrounded and MILITARILY TRAPPED, just waiting for me to give the word, "GO," for their lives to be quickly extinguished. As for the rest, we know where and who you are, and you will be hunted down, and killed. I am asking that all innocent Palestinians immediately leave this area of potentially great future death for safer parts of Gaza.

Everyone will be well cared for by those that are waiting to help. Fortunately for Hamas, however, they will be given one last chance! Great, powerful, and very rich Nations of the Middle East, and the surrounding areas beyond, together with the United States of America, have agreed, with Israel signing on, to PEACE, after 3000 years, in the Middle East. THIS DEAL ALSO SPARES THE LIVES OF ALL REMAINING HAMAS FIGHTERS! The details of the document are known to the WORLD, and it is a great one for ALL! We will have PEACE in the Middle East one way or the other.

The violence and bloodshed will stop. RELEASES THE HOSTAGES, ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING THE BODIES OF THOSE THAT ARE DEAD, NOW! An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time.

Every Country has signed on! If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. Thank you for your attention to this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
