    Well that’s not strictly true. Israelis could pull their finger out of their ass and get rid of Netanyahu, the US could actually step in or any of the nuclear powers in support of Gaza could get involved. They almost certainly won’t, but it could happen.

    Netanyahu really is a cunt.

    “No one will stop us, not The Hague, not the axis of evil and not anyone else,"

    Wow, the new years in Israel took back them to 2002.

    Someone tell them to don’t make the American mistakes post 9/11, oh wait… :/

    If they don’t want to recognize international law, maybe we shouldn’t recognize them as a sovereign nation.

    If the US said they were going to stop providing military support and tech it may well stop it…

    The point of the ICJ and laws against genocide and ethnic cleansing is to protect minorities, like, say, Jews.

    So if they’re saying that those post WWII rules are now null and void… then there’s nothing to protect them once the US Empire either withdraws or loses interest in providing cover.

      Please show me one example, where Israel wants to eradicate Palestinians. And while you’re at it, show me the difference between the Iraqi wars and this. Hamas and IS are pretty much the same. While I agree that both wars are fruitless and utterly stupid and based on some kind of twisted reality to fight fire with fire (not much difference between terror from Hamas or Israel at this point, same as in the Iraqi Wars) that only brings more death, destruction and despair - it is no genocide.

      And Israel ignoring international law is pretty much the same as the US, Russia and China ignoring international law. But to wear down those countries takes time, effort and a United front. While time is probably the smallest issue…effort and and united front is a whole lot more of an issue.

    They can, they just don’t want to. Impose sanctions on Israel’s tech industry and restrict material imports and watch their state collapse into nothing in 2 years.
