ICJ orders Israel to prevent genocide in Gaza, stops short of ordering ceasefire

We are not committing any genocide. The give away for Genocide is that there are mass graves, which in Gaza there are not.

Yes there is collateral damage because Hamas uses civilians as human shields, so we have no choice but to kill them too, but we do not specifically target them.

We risk ourselves and our soldiers to ensure that the fewest number of non-combatants get killed. We have lost many of our own soldiers because of this. It would be much easier for us to just bomb everything from the air but we dont, because it's less precise than going in on foot.

Personally, as a commander, I would like to say that I have no ill feelings towards the Palestinian people, but we need to get as many of the hostages back as possible, and we cannot allow Hamas to continue ruling Gaza and attacking our civilians as they did on October 7th.

We will continue the fight with them until our military objectives are met, and we will also engage Hizbollah on the northern border for exactly the same reasons (Hamas actually stole their plan and used it on October 7th - Hezbollah had planned to do it in the north but much worse).

Israel is the canary in the coal mine. What happens to us today will happen to you tomorrow, so before you give your full throated support to Hamas, let me ask you, would you want October 7th to happen to your family and friends? If Hamas aren't stopped, that same attack will happen around the world.

Please support us and help rid the world of violent terrorism, and maybe one day, we can all live in peace.

Shabbat Shalom!

You may not feel you owe the other person better, but you owe this community better if you're participating it; especially given the intended spirit that I attempted to describe at the top of this thread.

Denouncing others as monsters without humanity is what fuels this entire horror. The least we can do is not allow that on Hacker News.

I disagree, refusing to denounce atrocious acts and being "civil" and "polite" is what fuels and literally allows these horrors.

These fucks are prancing around tiktok and ycombinator while they bomb refugee camps they deserve no peace.

I get that your intention is to oppose injustice, but when you do it this way, you actually contribute to the violence.

I said he's lost his humanity:

Humane Having or showing concern for the pain or suffering of another; compassionate.

inhumane lacking pity or compassion for misery and suffering; cruel, unkind, not humane.

I'm sorry that English is confusing sometimes and that zionism has thrown our collective conscious into the gutter through its vile campaign.

Unlike the zionists I won't use someones lack of humanity as justification dehumanize and to murder them. I apologize for any confusion.
