Russia claims Israel\u2019s bombing of Gaza violates international law"},"content":{"rendered":"

Good day all. As of this post, it looks like Israel has started sending in ground forces to destroy Hamas and it\u2019s supporters in Gaza. For the last few weeks, Israel has been bombing suspect munitions depots and other support facilities in preparation for the ground assault. This has upset the Russians. They are saying bombing Hamas\u2019s supplies and support systems violate international law.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For almost two years now, Russia has been indiscriminately bombing the crap out of the Ukraine. They aren\u2019t even trying to avoid collateral damage. Israel, on the other hand, has been avoiding hitting targets that could injure or kill noncombatants. Hamas, on the gripping hand, have been launching rockets into Israel with the intention of maximizing civilian casualties. Israel has actually not hit targets that are legitimate because they are hospitals or might house children.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Russia, which isn\u2019t doing well in the Ukraine, doesn\u2019t seem to see this as a double standard, or even a triple standard. (Hamas bombs hospitals, Russia bombs hospitals, Israel doesn\u2019t) They are accusing Israel of violating international standards. Here are the details from Newsmax<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said that Israel’s bombardment of Gaza runs counter to international law and risks creating a catastrophe that could last decades. <\/b><\/p>\n

“While we condemn terrorism, we categorically disagree that you can respond to terrorism by violating the norms of international humanitarian law, including indiscriminately using force against targets where civilians are known to be present, including hostages that have been taken,” said Lavrov. <\/b><\/p>\n

“While we condemn terrorism, we categorically disagree that you can respond to terrorism by violating the norms of international humanitarian law, including indiscriminately using force against targets where civilians are known to be present, including hostages that have been taken,” said Lavrov. <\/b><\/p>\n

And there is a problem with this? I\u2019d say that most people who aren\u2019t Nazi-like antisemites are fine with reducing Gaza to a pile of rubble, much as Russia has done to several areas in the Ukraine. Oh, don\u2019t forget that the Russians started the war with Ukraine where Israel is responding to a 911\/Pearl Harbor attack on them.<\/p>\n

“If Gaza is destroyed and 2 million inhabitants are expelled, as some politicians in Israel and abroad propose, this will create a catastrophe for many decades, if not centuries,” warned Lavrov. <\/b><\/p>\n

So? Count me as one of those who have decided that the time is right to drive the Palestinians in Gaza into the Sinai and let the Arab world deal with them. Besides, most of the residents are all in on supporting Hamas, unlike people in Russia with regards to the\u00a0 Ukraine. So Lavrov, are you still having issues with all your \u201cRecruits\u201d for the Russia-Ukraine war running for the borders and asking for asylum?<\/p>\n

“It is necessary to stop\u00a0and to announce humanitarian programs to save the population under blockade.” <\/b><\/p>\n
