    Yes, I wonder why they could have compared you to mass murderers".

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cw4490z75v3o

    In a bitter personal attack, Mr Netanyahu said Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) was one of the “great antisemites in modern times.”

    I’ve checked the ICC most wanted list. It’s here: https://www.icc-cpi.int/defendants

    It’s almost all African warlords. Not a big Jewish demographic, if I’m honest. If the leader of Israel can describe the ICC as antisemites, the word literally has no meaning any more.

    To avoid that label, he could, like… not mass murder the people of Gaza.

    If he’s so upset about being compared to mass murderers he should have not murdered people en masse. It’s actually very easy to not do that

    I’ve been calling this man a war criminal for almost my entire life and it’s good to see the ICC figuring it out

      More people need to watch the interviews with former IDF soldiers. They openly talk about doing things to Palestinians in West Bank that are war crimes. They also say they do these things routinely. Even the arrest policy is a war crime because they aren’t turned over to the PA, they have to go in front of an Israeli court. If they go in front of a court at all, instead of being indefinitely detained.

        There’s that documentary with the old timer IDF members laughing about slaughtering people and raping young girls during the Nakba.

        https://streamable.com/b7yvo0

        When we see these kinds of people act on their inclinations in society, whether it be they chop up their wife or kill a bunch of kids at a daycare, people react with horror. They do it as part of their time in the military and a lot of people just accept it. Same sociopaths doing the same horrible stuff though either way you cut it.

    No, Bibi. He’s not comparing Israel to mass murderers. He’s comparing you to mass murderers.

      Quick question. Are the 4 and 5 year Olds members of hamas? Even if you believe the adults should be wiped off the face of the earth do you believe the small children should be massacred by the tens of thousands like they are now. How about the unarmed people trying to get food from air drops getting gunned down. In my eyes Isreal is targeting unrelated civilians at an alarming rate. Hamas killed about 1000 people where as Isreal has killed near 40000 with most being unrelated civilians.

        don’t care and not bothered by woke rhetorics about Palestinian children,if hamas had no qualms killing israeli children,why should i be bothered by hypocrites using the death of children as a numbers game.

          Yikes. “If the mass shooter doesn’t care about killing innocent people, why should I feel bad about shooting up the neighborhood he lives in?”

          You need professional help. Not a joke or exaggeration.
