Gaza Genocide Was "Necessary and Proportionate"


As the world watched in shock and horror at the Gaza holocaust, those in Israel's Alternate Universe say the response to the small periodic homemade rockets was "necessary and proportionate". So, using White phosphorus, DIME missiles, unmanned drones and tanks to wipe out hospitals, schools, mosques, 1400 civilians and 400 children, was "necessary and proportionate".
An Israeli government report has said that the Israeli military campaign in Gaza earlier this year was "necessary and proportionate".

According to the United Nations, the Israeli military campaign left more than 50,000 homes, 800 industrial properties and 200 schools damaged or destroyed, as well as 39 mosques and two churches.

The UN Human Rights Council has appointed former South African judge Richard Goldstone to investigate whether war crimes were committed during the conflict.

Israel has declined to co-operate, accusing the UN Human Rights Council of bias against it.

Allegations persist against the Israeli military about killings of unarmed civilians, the use of civilians as human shields and indiscriminate destruction of property. source

Never hear about the two state anymore do we?
Now that that has been shown for what it was (pure bullshit) for those who didn't understand the "game" before...I wonder what you Irish guys think now, where do you go from here? What's your points of unity? Going back to the drawing board means that square A is the elimination of the Jewish state. See, it's all there is and the only right thing. Can't build on a bad foundation and expect success anyway so the whole idea was flawed. A two state would be constructed on the same sand foundation Israel is built on. Which some Arabs figure would do for the time being. True, but the Israelis know better. A two state would end the expansion which is what the Zionist ruling class lives for. Without that, there is no use for them. Without them Israel will collapse. There is only one right side to the resistance. That is to stand with the Palestinians and throw rocks at the occupiers (figurative or literal, either one) and maintain the points of unity which is the elimination of Israel. or give up, go home and forget about it. No use of any of it if one is not going to stand on the side of the Palestinian people and their aspirations. Join the Israelis or go home otherwise.
