The International Criminal Court (ICC) stunned Israel by issuing arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former defense chief Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in the 13-month-old Gaza conflict. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/24/world/politics/legal-threats-israel-netanyahu-wars/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #benjaminnetanyahu #icc

With Trump back, Israeli settlers revive goal of full control of West Bank /Jonathan Saul e James Mackenzie, Reuters, 23/11/2024

Poi uno pensa che ci sono stati sostenitori della causa palestinese che hanno votato Trump per dispetto a Biden, alla Harris e ai Democratici.

The #US is making a mockery of international law.

If the dude announces his actions on live TV, what on earth are supposed to be the "process errors" that lead to the #ICC indictment of #yoavGallant???

Maybe not killing everybody should become a part of US foreign (and climate) policy.

Lebanon said four people were killed and 23 injured in an Israeli strike on central Beirut on Saturday, as rescue operations continued hours after a residential building was razed. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/23/world/israel-beirut-strike/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #israel #lebanon #hezbollah #middleeast #beirut

Balcony Over Jerusalem: A Middle East Memoir - Israel, Palestine and Beyond by John Lyons, 2017

A gripping memoir of life in Jerusalem from one of Australia's most experienced Middle East correspondents. Leading Australian journalist John Lyons will take readers on a fascinating personal journey through the wonders and dangers of the Middle East.

From the sheer excitement of arriving in Jerusalem with his wife and eight-year-old son, to the fall of dictators and his gripping account of what it feels like to be taken by Egyptian soldiers, blindfolded and interrogated, this is a memoir of the Middle East like no other. Drawing on a 20-year interest in the Middle East, Lyons has had extraordinary access - he's interviewed everyone from Israel's former Prime Ministers Shimon Peres and Ehud Olmert to key figures from Hezbollah and Hamas. He's witnessed the brutal Iranian Revolutionary Guard up close and was one of the last foreign journalists in Iran during the violent crackdown against the 'Green Revolution'. He's confronted Hamas officials about why they fire rockets into Israel and Israeli soldiers about why they fire tear gas at Palestinian school children. By telling the story of his family travelling through the region, this book is extremely readable and entertaining, full of humour, colour. It is sometimes dazzling in its detail, sometimes tragic. Lyons says he has written it in a way that readers can feel they are there with him - so they can smell the wonderful markets of the Middle East and feel the fear of what it is like to be blindfolded and have your hands bound with electrical cord. Lyons also looks at 50 years of Israeli occupation of the West Bank - the mechanics of how this works and the effect it now has on both Israelis and Palestinians.


President Biden calls the ICC war crimes indictments against Netanyahu and Gallant "outrageous" thereby telling future historians he wants to be remembered as a relic of the mid 20th Century.

Israeli forces killed at least 48 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, including a rescue worker, health officials said, as troops deepened an incursion along the territory's northern edge, bombarding a hospital and blowing up homes. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/21/world/israeli-gaza-hospital-distress-call/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #benjaminnetanyahu #hospitals


#Israeli forces are using an #AI weapons system in #Gaza co-produced by an #Indian defence company that turns machine guns and assault rifles into computerised killing machines, using algorithms to ‘improve operator lethality.’

When the ridiculous "journos" ask #UN rapporteur Albanese "has Israel the right to exists", they just justify this occupation among the rest of the crimes it commits.

Two-thirds of the Golan were seized on 9 June 1967; later, in December 1981, Israel unilaterally moved to annex the territory, blatantly disregarding international norms and overtly violating United Nations Security Council Resolution 497.

The UN resolution emphasized that territorial acquisition by force is unacceptable under the UN Charter and international law, deeming Israel’s annexation of the Golan Heights null and void.

All Israeli actions in the Golan, including the imposition of Israeli citizenship, settlement expansions, and attempts to breach the disengagement zone to construct a separation wall, are still today considered flagrant violations of international law.


"Former South African politician and arms expert #AndrewFeinstein has warned that the “very real possibility” of a ban on #Palestine Action would be a “fundamental attack on British democracy”. Palestine Action has frequently been protesting against Israeli weapons manufacturer #Elbit Systems in the #UK.
Feinstein adds that under British Prime Minister #KeirStarmer, the UK government could use anti-#terrorism laws to crack down on pro-Palestine and #climatechange activists."

With many residents of the Gaza Strip displaced by the war, often seeking shelter in tent camps, the approaching winter is a major cause for concern, and some are using rubble and revisiting antiquated techniques to make mortar and build some sort of shelter. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/19/world/gazans-homes-rubble-winter/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas

„For the past year, we have witnessed extreme violence against civilians in Gaza. In recent months, we went to Gaza to support the Doctors Without Borders (MSF) teams there, where we toured the "humanitarian zone" declared safe by Israel, although it attacks it regularly.“
