“I visited a school, hosting thousands of displaced persons,” Lazzarini continued. “The place was overcrowded. The level of distress and the unsanitary living conditions were beyond comprehension. Everyone was asking for water and food. Instead of being at school to learn, children were asking for a sip of water and a loaf of bread. It was heartbreaking.”
White also said the average Palestinian in Gaza is living off of two pieces of bread made from U.N. stockpiled flour, The AP reported. But the situation is growing more dire.
“Now people are beyond looking for bread. It’s looking for water,” White said.When these people die of thirst, who’s neck will the noose go on for their collective murder?
Nobodies.
I believed that to be implicit as neither the US or Israel would abide by the demands of the ICC. Agreed and thanks for helping to clarify the point.
The Washington Post will solemnly report that every child in Gaza deliberately starved themselves to death because they couldn’t bear to live in a world that had Jews in it.
The New York Times will do a follow up story revealing that the IDF actually never attacked Gaza at all. The consensus of the intelligence community will be that Hamas actually bombarded themselves with US weaponry that they stole from Afghanistan after America’s misguided withdrawal.
And then does nothing to stop it because it’s being held hostage by the US.
I think the UN should have an actual defensive army to rapidly deploy in situations like this. Attacking the peacekeepers shows the world your true colors.
Nah, because while the UN is a good idea in theory, it’s just an extension of the American empire as it is currently organized.
Yeah, I’m saying like actual functional, non hostage to the US, UN. Like how the people who envisioned it wanted. The body that ends the wars of aggression.
The “people who envisioned it”, however, were imperialists. They merely claimed that’s what they wanted the UN to be to make it more palatable to those who would fall under the control and influence of the Big 5. The UN has always been, and will always be, a tool of imperialism as long as there are countries that have the ability to rule by minority (see the vote for a ceasefire in Gaza. Only three counties did not vote in favor. Ukraine abstained, and the US and Israel voted against. Because the US has veto power, it didn’t pass )
Okay, how about what it should be instead of what it is?
I’m not even sure what it is you’re attempting to ask.
