                              @dowhatuwant2: So it must be false. OK.

                              • @RecklessMonkeys: Speculation isn't real evidence. He's not a witness to the events he's a Dr looking at the wounds. So yeah it's not proof of his claims.

                                  @dowhatuwant2: There's plenty of proof of atrocities by both the IDF and Hamas. Apparently you have selective blindness when it comes to the IDF's.

                                    @Igaf: I haven't seen any atrocities committed by the IDF intentionally, any military force will have some bad apples. Even Australia had Ben Roberts-Smith initially celebrated as a hero but then later found out to be a war criminal. The difference is that Israel/IDF doesn't endorse atrocities while Hamas does. If you can't see the difference then you are the one with selective blindness.

                                      @dowhatuwant2: You don't read much do you, especially anythng which might uset your simplistic black and white goodie/baddie views? The IDF is doing exactly as instructed, hence the accusations of genocide and ethnic cleansing. The levelling of infrastructure is intentional, as is the aim to drive out Palestinians from their lands. If it was 'a few bad apples' as you naively believe then the same "mistakes" wouldn't be reguarly repeated, with the same insincere, rote apologies from the IDF.

                                  @dowhatuwant2: Yeah starving people all got shot in the same body part on the same day by pure coincidence. And then a different body part the next day.
                                  There'd be more doctors, aid workers and journalists to bear witness if they weren't already murdered as well.

                                  But that's cool. You didn't personally witness any of it, so all good. You've changed my mind because you have more cred than a senior doctor who is recounting what other international doctors have confirmed.

                              @dowhatuwant2: "that particular story". Pretty much sums up your selective opinion. Missed the drone attack which showed the bodies of women and children at a water collection site also did you?

                              • -5

                                @Igaf: Women and children are being used as human shields for military targets by hamas, you can thank them for their deaths.

                                  @dowhatuwant2: Repetition's your forte apparently. In "that particular story" the IDF admitted a "technical error" - not unlike the "techinical errors" made by USA drone pilots in Iraq. Try to keep up with the basics even if you can't shrug off your 'anything goes' philosophy.

                                  Being oblivious to anything which doesn't fit your narrative is one thing. Being content to wave off atrocities because "others do it" is as base and amoral a justification as is possible. Common human decency may be a distant aim but it's way past time you acquainted yourself with international law pertaining to war, and the reasons for it.

                                  My final question too hard was it? I'll repeat it in case you missed it: How much retribution is enough for you?
                                  Here's another from a previous post: If the boot was on the other foot you'd be happy to accept such atrocities?

                                    @Igaf: I'll repeat, it's not retribution it's security. The boot would never be on my foot since im not a terrorist.

                                      @dowhatuwant2: Okay, I'll rephrase : How many innocent deaths is "security" is enough for you?

                                      You appear to have missed the point of my second question so I'll make it simpler for you: Would it be acceptable to you if say Iran/China/Russia was mercilessly obliterating life in Israel using whatever excuses they came up with, or would you be outraged?

                                • @dowhatuwant2: More misinformation, every accusation is a confession.

                                  Look up Hannibal directive, it was deployed on October 7 🤡

      @dowhatuwant2

      So your position is the essentially the IDF and Hamas are mirror images of each other? Sadly it's hard to argue with that other than the massive body count differential of innocent women and children.

      A few questions for you. Do you believe in the principle of unbending collective responsibility, ie that every person in a country is responsible for the actions of their govts/leaders and is therefore a legitimate target? Not unsurprisingly Hamas uses exactly the same perverse justifications for their own inhuman acts, as do most extremists around the globe. Did your gut wrench when any of the >400 aid workers were "accidentally" targeted for obliteration by the IDF? What did you make of IDF soldiers souveniring womens' underwear and parading around with it?? Since you're highly unlikely to read that article here's an extract: "Let’s pretend for a moment that, in the course of waging war against the state of Israel, Hamas militants from the Gaza Strip had taken to posing for social media posts with lingerie belonging to Israeli women who had been forced to flee their homes and/or killed in the war. Imagine the moral outrage that would swiftly ensue, inevitably entailing racist and self-righteous allegations of Arab perverseness, the barbaric sexism of Islam, and the violent tendencies of sexually repressed Muslims.

      And my final question: How much retribution is enough for you?

      Ironic but very apt nic.

      • -5

        No i don't think they are mirror images of each other, i think Hamas is far far worse. I have zero respect or tolerance for any group that will use it's own women and children as human shields to protect military targets. They are to blame for any innocents killed as a result.

        I don't see the actions of IDF as retribution i see them as securing their nation.

        • +3

          Of course you think that, despite the mountain of evidence available to you.

          They are to blame for any innocents killed as a result. I don't see the actions of IDF as retribution i see them as securing their nation.

          We already knew that. Netanyahu uses exactly the same excuse, as do tyrants of all types around the globe.

          • -2

            @Igaf: It's not an excuse, it's the reality of the situation. You keep defending terrorists though if it makes you happy.

            • +2

              @dowhatuwant2: Puerile comment. I dont defend terrorism, nor will I defend excesses by my own government or its agents. Unsurprisingly many Israelis have the same views.

              The "reality" is that Netanyahu and his supporters have no limits to the atrocities they will accept. We've established that you're firmly in their camp.

            • +2

              @dowhatuwant2: Speaking of selectivity:
              From a Times of Israel article:

              "The IDF has said that the tank shelling of the Gaza church was a mistake, and that it makes every effort to avoid harm to civilians and religious sites. It is hard to imagine the Israeli army intentionally targeting the church.

              Yet that does not let Israeli leaders and commanders off the hook. If the military decides it must avoid hitting something at all costs, it has plenty of tools to ensure that troops do not fire in that direction. The IDF has been very careful about avoiding any strikes that have even a small chance of hitting areas where Israeli hostages might be.

              https://www.timesofisrael.com/causing-strategic-moral-harm-n…

              As obvious as it has been to millions of people around the world - including Israelis, I'll leave you to ponder the obvious implications of that paragraph.

    Jillian Segal and the Israel Lobby's TERRIFYING Plan for Australia

    • +3

      Enlightening comment by Segal at 2.49. Hence her report's endorsement of the odious and simplistic IHRA definition of "antisemitism", in particular this point: Accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel, or to the alleged priorities of Jews worldwide, than to the interests of their own nations. The irony is that the words and actions of many Jewish groups reguarly show where their loyalties and proirities lie (very simplistic, but as they're playing the black and white game, fair). As Waleed Aly pointed out recently (echoing the concerns of many others who the Jewish lobby would not dare label antisemitic) Segal’s antisemitism plan takes us down a path we should fear to tread

      A small extract from Aly's article: "Omer Bartov – an Israeli genocide scholar who once served in the IDF – published an essay in The New York Times arguing genocide is now the only label that fits Israel’s conduct in Gaza. Meanwhile, former British Supreme Court judge Jonathan Sumption examined Israel’s most recent words and actions in a cover story for The New Statesman and argued that, while it is debatable, “a court would be likely to regard that as genocide”."
      https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/opinion/israel-gaza-holoc…

      So according to Segal and numerous Jewish lobby groups Bartov is therefore "antisemitic". What they mean is that unlike them he is prepared to call out the prevalent inhumane "my country right or wrong" blindness he sees.

      No doubt Mandy Patinkin is also an antisemite because he wrote: "I ask Jews to consider what this man Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing government is doing to the Jewish people all over the world. They are endangering not only the State of Israel, which I care deeply about and want to exist, but they are endangering the Jewish population all over the world. To watch what is happening, for the Jewish people to allow this to happen to children and civilians of all ages in Gaza, for whatever reason, is unconscionable and unthinkable. And I ask you, Jews, everywhere, all over the world, to spend some time alone and think, is this acceptable and sustainable? How could it be done to you and your ancestors, and you turn around and you do it to someone else?

      19:30 exposes Segal's extreme views and pretty much confirms that her allegiances are not to this country but to Israel, irrespective of international law or it's treatment of Palestinians. Just appalling from Segal, and the self-serving Albanese.

        Just so happens a friend has recently been "permanently banned" for "cybersecurity" transgressions and "advertsing goods" after posting negative comments about Israel's inhuman acts in Gaza so they did some basic research to find out if others had similar experiences. Turns out plenty have. This person has neither the inclination nor the expertise to hack Facebook accounts, and has never advertised anything on Facebook, something easily verified. Ironically - as you no doubt know - Facebook allows scammers to advertise despite multiple reports from other users. As you also know Meta changed its censorship policy wrt comments mentioning "Zionists".

        Could be pure coincidence, or possibly just more Meta incompetence. Evidence suggests much more than that is at play.

    Israel’s new measures do nothing to stop the starvation crisis in Gaza, say aid workers

    …number of aid trucks still falls far below the 500-600 trucks the UN has said is necessary to sustain the 2 million residents of Gaza…need is now far greater than 600 trucks, given that Gaza is now facing famine.
