Israel's genocide in Gaza is making US past 50 years of warcrimes in Vietnam, Cambodia, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria look weak.
I saw photos yesterday of a massacre in Iraq in 2005, where US marines killed several families including small children in houses that just happened to be nearby after an IED went off
It was one of the most horrific things to come out of the US occupation of Iraq, made global headlines, and let to the arrest and investigation of the marines responsible before General Mattis and Trump had them pardoned. It was disgusting.
It was significantly less horrific than things I’ve seen on nearly a daily fucking basis out of Israel. The most horrific war crimes the US committed that were so bad they actually sparked an investigation were less bad than the IOF’s standard operating procedure.
Every member, former or current, of the IDF needs to be imprisoned, investigated, and tried for crimes against humanity. I’d argue most, at the very least most who’ve been enlisted since Oct 7 2023, should be fucking hanged. Yes, that’s something like 70% of the adult Israeli population.
If there is a god, then "befehl ist befehl" won't save anyone from the gallows this time.
