It's something I've seen slowly starting to emerge over the course of the last year or so. Maybe even longer. There's accounts that post stories to designed to shock people into thinking India is a terrible place. Like I get it. India does have issues. And it does have issues with sexual violence as well. But its a shame those conversations seemingly cannot be had without resorting to racism. I hope this site us different.

but has everyone thought about the party committing war crimes?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Parties. Pretty sure the Hamas October action constituted a war crime too

[–] Skullgrid 1 points 7 months ago

There are war criminals on both sides. Some I assume are good people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

international law has concept proportionality, which is clearly lacking within Israeli state and military. you should educate yourself.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I await to see how you justify the apparently indiscriminate massacres of 1,139 people - 695 Israeli civilians (including 36 children), and 71 foreign nationals. Let’s set aside the possibility of rapes and sexual assault as they can’t be absolutely verified.

In what way do you believe they were proportional?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

civilian death toll in gaza is in excess of 30k, you need to learn to do basic math also, champ

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Yes. My claim wasn’t that Israel isn’t committing war crimes. It clearly is. Possibly genocide too. However, I’m of the opinion that the Hamas attack was a war crime too - hence parties

I hope that’s helpful

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

you are arguing in bad faith. just stop, nobody is buying it.

public opinion has turned for Israel, so they better finish killing off the Gaza residents, I doubt another such chance present itself. Country will forever be stained with this shit.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You’re projecting here, I think. I’ve been pretty clear on my position. You haven’t said why you think the Oct 7 attack doesn’t constrain war crime by Hamas.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Hamas is a non state actor under international law. This is not a war, Israel is conducting reprisal against local population due to a terrorist attack. Just like US did after 911.

Reprisals against civilian population is a war crime.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fair point to the extent that Palestine isn't a state, Hamas can never commit a war-crime. So that's OK then.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Israel is not even killing Hamas. They just doing scortch earth policy on Gaza residents.

"What about Oct 7" lost any weight 5 months ago lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

If you read back through this thread, you'll see that in no way shape of form have I defended the atrocities carried out by Israel. That doesn't mean that Hamas' actions on Oct 7 weren't also an atrocity. "Yeh, but that was 5 months ago" doesn't feel like suitable rebuttle. No you don't use genocide as a response to attrocity, but that doesn't mean the original massacre wasn't a atrocity.

I think you should should avoid using "lol" in these kinds of discussions.
