Or something 🤷

…did you just have a stroke in the middle of a strawman argument?

You have done nothing BUT come up with excuses for the genocide and Apartheid system of Israel.

Now leave me alone and have the day you deserve like I said.

Please read the law and stop embarrassing yourself.

I could say the same to you, but your reading comprehension and willingness to embarrass yourself to excuse Apartheid and genocide seem to be inversely proportional.

I’ll not be engaging further as you are clearly arguing in bad faith, incapable of understanding any information that doesn’t conform with the Hasbara gaslighting you spread like an infection, or both.

Have the day you deserve.

It’s an out of context (OOC) panel from the webcomic Questionable Content (QC). I’ve provided a link to the full comic in the description for those desirous of context and/or wanting to read a fun comic 🙂

I’m including it because you seem to utterly unaware of international law.

Is it opposite day already? Or just the Zionist Day of Projection, which is every day that ends in a y?

Israel has attacked military objectives in safe zones

A zone is by definition not safe if it contains a military objective. That’s so obvious that it’s frankly embarrassing for both of us that I have to point it out to you.

That is legal under international law

Would be if it wasn’t horseshit. The IDF claims phantom militants everywhere they bomb. In the vast majority of cases, there’s no legitimate military target.

Hamas putting their weapons depots and operating bases in areas protected under international humanitarian law

According to the IDF, an organization synonymous with concocting falsehoods to excuse deliberate targeting of civilians.

is a war crime

Even if they WEREN’T lying about there being Hamas bases there, bombing a hospital or a school or a refugee camp would STILL be a war crime.

Nobody’s forcing Israel to kill civilians. Israel is TARGETING civilians, with the “bases” made up afterwards and never proven to exist in the vast majority of cases.

Attacking these is not a war crime.

Yes, it most certainly is. Forgetting for a second that there’s hardly ever any hostiles there, bombing civilians is a war crime.

Imagine for a second that, unbeknownst to you, the guy who lives in the apartment below yours is a terrorist. Would that make it acceptable for your government to reduce the entire block to rubble, killing you and every other civilian in the process?

I say no, and so does international law.

However, the passport issuance is subject to additional restrictions imposed by the Israeli government.

It’s not Palestinian citizenship when it’s still Israel who determines who is eligible.

They are not citizens

They by definition CAN’T be because Palestine doesn’t have any citizens. Because it’s occupied territory denied nationhood by its occupiers, Israel.

Do you think a Palestinian state in the West Bank would accept Jewish settlers as citizens?

Jewish people in general? Yes. Jewish (or Christian, or Muslim etc) SETTLERS stealing their land on behalf of an occupying force, though? That’s another kettle of ballgames entirely.

“Settling” land already owned by someone else is colonialism and theft, not peaceful coexistence.

Rule 24. Each party to the conflict must, to the extent feasible, remove civilian persons and objects under its control from the vicinity of military objectives.

That’s NOT what Israel is doing. They’re constantly DIRECTING military force at civilians

B. Parties to a non-international armed conflict may not order the displacement of the civilian population, in whole or in part, for reasons related to the conflict, unless the security of the civilians involved or imperative military reasons so demand

Weird that you’d include this in DEFENSE of Israel since that’s what they’re constantly doing. Hell, sometimes they’ll even force civilians into a so-called “safe zone” and then bomb that area!

That’s not true. Especially not when you count the settlers living on stolen land inside the West Bank and planning to do the same in Gaza.

I hope you’re also against Palestinian nationalism then

That’s not comparable and you know it. Nationalism without a nation is an ambition. Ethno-nationalism while in control of a nation containing other peoples is oppression and, in extreme cases like the South Africa of the past and present day Israel, Apartheid.

But to answer the question you thought you asked: yes, I am against the violently theocratic government philosophy of Hamas.

Also compare the number of Arabs with Israeli citizenship to the number of Jews with PA citizenship.

Arab doesn’t equal Palestinian and Palestinian doesn’t equal Arab. To conflate the two is bigotry and ignorance.

In Gaza there is only temporary evacuations forced displacement of civilians from dangerous areas their homes. This is not only illegal but required under international humanitarian law as a war crime

There, fixed it for you.

Gazans are not constantly expelled from their land

In fact, almost all Palestinians in Gaza have been forcibly displaced

they aren’t allowed to leave the Gaza strip

True, but not a good thing. The Israeli apartheid regime is basically moving Gazans around inside an open air prison in between the murder and the theft and destruction of those things necessary for people to live.

Zionism is simply Jewish nationalism

That’s a big part of the problem. Ethnostates and theocracies are invariably oppressive towards any inhabitants who are not of the dominant ethnicity or religion. Israel is no exception and shouldn’t be treated as one.

the right of self determination for the Jewish people in the form of a democratic state

An Apartheid state, which a formalized ethnostate by definition is, is inherently anti democratic and opposed to the self determination of everyone except the ruling people. Self determination through oppression of others is never and will never be legitimate.

Nostr? As in adamus?

Same here. See also: the ridiculously hyperspecific cat subs 😄

Sluggy Freelance is still going

It took me like a year and a half to catch up to current way back in 2004, I can’t imagine the struggle now.

Personally I prefer being behind: that way I can binge at my own pace rather than having to wait for the next one 😁

Sew You Think You Can Darn(ce) is the main competitor show.
