Israel argues the ICC has no jurisdiction in the conflict because Palestine is not an independent sovereign state.
That means Israel is arguing that it is bombing its own citizen civilians, as Palestine is a vassal state of theirs, not a sovereign. That’s a hell of an admission.
Israel’s government is far right religious extremists, just like Hamas is.
Far right religious extremists will always say whatever makes them look best in the moment, even if it’s sandwiched in-between two comments making the opposite stance.
If they had any logical consistency, they wouldn’t be far right religious extremists to begin with.
Two men destroy a 7/11. The police throw both in jail. Nobody cares if they were fighting and double daring each other to destroy more 7/11 which will get them in trouble. Both are committing crimes.
We need more of these balanced accusations.
Yes, because a targeted strike at clearly marked journalists on foreign soil is basically a stray bullet anyway.
Which is why they’re calling on the International Criminal Court to investigate, no?
The ICC is toothless.
Nope, only Israel is killing journalists, bombing their homes and killing their families, and innocent civilians too.

According to recent Hamas interview to Lebanonian TV station, they’re ready to fight Israel till the last Palestinian in Gaza… I guess they don’t care much about safety of journalists as well 🤷
You’re right that definitely means war crimes are a ok.
Nope, it doesn’t mean that.
Wearing civilian clothing as combatants and using civilian infrastructure for military purposes is a deliberate war crime that makes both legitimate targets.
TIL, unlawful perfidy.
