Can’t see any evidence if all the journalists have been killed.

What an absolute fucking joke of a country

Maybe they should pretend it's right next to the WMDs. I'm sure they'll find it then.

[–] SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Ahhh yes, I see, because they’re still in the process of committing it. We can’t actually say they’ve committed genocide until they’re done (when it’s too late to do anything about it).

The standard foreign affairs 4 step program to deal with atrocities:

Step 1: there is no genocide

Step 2: there might be a genocide but were should not be doing anything

Step 3: okay, there is a genocide but there is nothing we can do

Step 4: there was a genocide but it's too late now to do anything

Can we rename all of our "defence" branches back to "war" like they were originally?

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

Or do like south park and hire a secretary of offense.

[–] PanArab@lemmy.ml 35 points 7 months ago

Gaza is mostly unlivable, over 30,000 killed and hundreds are still under the rubble, but they see no evidence?

All you need to know that the US is a participant in the genoicde.

[–] DandomRude@lemmy.world 34 points 7 months ago

I suppose that was to be expected from a country that has never recognized the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

Well, that's a relief. For a moment, I thought there was a genocide happening. Fuck Israel.

Is mass killing children via deliberate targeting not just like.. automatically evidence?

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.ml 25 points 7 months ago

That kind of blindness is 100% self inflicted

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 25 points 7 months ago (1 children)

[–] Conyak@lemmy.tf 14 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Who do they mean when they say US? I’m an American and I’ve seen plenty of evidence.

I suppose it depends on the definition you're using, but if you use the UN definition it makes it hard to say it's not genocide.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence

I think there's a dial up modem in these US government officials' brains, since it takes too long to load what's going on in the world.

[–] sushibowl@feddit.nl 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They know perfectly well, what's going on, they just have different priotities. It so happens the state of Israel is important to advance US geopolitical interests in the region. And so that's that.

American fuck yeah. They are murderous war criminals themselves. So much so, The civilians are better equipped with arms than most militaries. Life is cheap.

[–] mub@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 months ago

Can't see evidence you don't actually look at.
