Just to be clear, is genocide among the alleged crimes? I thought it was using starvation as a method of war?

I'm not comparing what's worse just wanna get the facts straight.

Couple things:

With regard to the crimes, the Chamber found reasonable grounds to believe that Mr Netanyahu, born on 21 October 1949, Prime Minister of Israel at the time of the relevant conduct, and Mr Gallant, born on 8 November 1958, Minister of Defence of Israel at the time of the alleged conduct, each bear criminal responsibility for the following crimes as co-perpetrators for committing the acts jointly with others: the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.

The Chamber also found reasonable grounds to believe that Mr Netanyahu and Mr Gallant each bear criminal responsibility as civilian superiors for the war crime of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population.

To me, the clear takeaway is that they've walked as close as possible to (correct) genocide charges while pandering to the US.

The facts don't matter if we ignore the ruling! 🇱🇷

That's not the American flag, but I get what you mean. I believe that's Liberia's flag.

It was very intentional.

I'm going to have to ask you to stop with this "joking". Lemmy is serious business and people here don't take kindly to to humour unless it's clearly marked and explained.

Agreed, I would never make a joke or be anything other than 100% serious. I have absolutely never acted with silliness, tomfoolery, or absolute whimsy while engaging in ":3" and meowing.

Almost pointed it out but i read the other comments first. I think this is a lesson for everyone on lemmy. Read first, dont jump to conclusions instantly.
