anymore? Based on the many books I've read about Israel, there was never any accountability. It's just more prominent and unavoidable now because of social media.

This is an allegation. There's been no trial and the footage, which was doctored, does not clearly show this. Innocent until proven guilty.

Reuters—OHCHR: weaponisation of food as potential war crime (June 24, 2025).

Reuters—UN adds IDF to list of grave violators against children (June 7, 2024).

Reuters—breakdown of verified Gaza deaths (women/children) from UN rights office (Nov 8, 2024).

My comment clearly advocates for common law standards: the right to a trial, the presumption of innocence, and so on. Am I understanding correctly that you think this advocacy--a staple of western thought--is bad faith? You prefer mob rule, no courts, medieval justice, and so on, and consider that good faith? What a topsy-turvy world we live in.

Your just strawmanning at this point. I didnt say those things. I really really dont think your posting in good faith
