    Israeli here.

    Just a reminder: the ICC was founded in the aftermath of WWII, when Jews had no voice and no one fighting for them.

    Israel’s finance minister, one of the most senior ministers in the government:

    “No one in the world will allow us to starve two million civilians to death, even though it may be justified and moral, until our hostages are returned.”

    Israel’s defense minister:

    “I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly.”

    Someone should prosecute those bastards.

        You're not allowed to talk about Jewish xenophobia.

          Guys like Ben Gvir and Smotrich talk pretty openly about it all the time, people just don't want to listen for some reason.

          They're not and never have been our friends, they detest us

        The story of Palestine is also weird and profoundly depressing, a group supporting the national socialists in world war 2 and still pretty much supporting national socialism 70 years later. Good consistent track record there.
