Making members of an ethnic group walk for miles and miles because otherwise you’ll kill them has been done before, and the perpetrators aren’t remembered as the good guys.
What are the elderly, disabled, injured, sick, dehydrated, and very young people supposed to do?
Never again is now, for everyone.
Remember that it’s a GOVERNMENT doing this. The baddies here are politicians.
Not an ethnic group. POLITICIANS.
Not a religion. POLITICIANS.
Certainly not any of the children, who can’t even vote. POLITICIANS.
@akareilly what about the military? Only following orders works this time?
How about the voters who elected these particular politicians in order to commit state led ethnic cleansing?
How about the settlers in the west bank who are taking the opportunity to attack, cleanse and murder Palestinians?
Accountability for everyone.
Murder is murder.
Laws of war are the lowest possible bar.
All the people you listed are adults and they should be held accountable with laws.
But above all others, the people who should be held accountable the most?
POLITICIANS.
@akareilly The politician who is as accountable as anyone for this is Joe Biden. None of it would be happening without his committed support. He is #GenocideJoe
@akareilly it’s always governments. People on their own would never wage war against their neighbors without politicians rotting their minds.
@akareilly The thing is in a democracy the people are, to an extent, responsible of the actions of their government
Sure, but first of all it doesn’t excuse violations of the Geneva Conventions or other human rights standards and laws.
It especially doesn’t excuse actions against disenfranchised parts of those populations.
Kids can’t vote.
Gerrymandering.
Voter suppression.
Even the assholes who voted for assholes won’t be convinced by bombs falling on their houses.
Do punch Nazis. Always punch Nazis.
@akareilly My point is that the regular Israeli guy is responsible for the actions of his government because Israel is a democracy. Every single Palestinian killed, being massacred by the terrorists in the IDF, is killed by every Israeli citizen.
I’m not going to agree with collective guilt, ever.
@akareilly it may not be in line with your beliefs/position on whatever but it is the logical conclusion most people would arrive to when diving into this issue.In a democracy, the people choose the government and the people of Israel choose their far right government.They also chose, systemically over 70 years, to build illegal settlements on land they stole and systematically persecute, rape, murder Palestinians after forcing them to live in an apartheid. It’s a Collective action
Hi there, I have a degree in international relations.
Collective punishment is a war crime.
This line of thinking doesn’t lead anywhere good.
Bye.
@akareilly hi there, what do your credentials have to do with anything? I have a Bsc in Philosophy- according your fallacious reasoning, does that give more weight to my argument? And, I’m not saying they should be “collectively punished”; I am saying most of them have below average moral standards.
@akareilly So the answer is no government? I choose politics, over anarchy. If people fully participate in the political process we can expect an outcome of good government. Don't be involved and you can expect only the worst outcomes.
It's painful to watch.
#Bibi and his #IDF are sure their solution will finally rid #Israel of the problem #Palestinians.
