This is completely false. Gaza Health Ministry provides the most accurate data. You could also just go on X or TikTok and see dozens of Palestinians murdered by the IDF every single day.

Stories about divisive topics are routinely flagged from all sides. It's common, if not inevitable, for people who feel strongly about $topic to conclude that the system (or the community, or the mods, etc.) are biased against their side ( https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... ). One is far more likely to notice whatever data points that one dislikes because they go against one's view and ov…
Out of curiosity, can you identify any pro-Israel stories that have been unflagged in the past year?

Accordingly, they issued similar warrants for (what's left of) Hamas leadership on the same day. https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/situation-state-palestine-icc-p... > Or that most aid is going through Israel itself because Egypt still has a blockade against Gaza. Israel very much prefers it that way. It's a very significant piece of leverage for them. They signed a treaty in 2007 requiring Israeli authorization of anythi…

Might be because we're funding this genocide ourselves...

This is textbook whataboutism. I live in the UK. I'm outraged by how much time/money is spent on Israel and Ukraine issues than our own. Similar to yourself, I have to wonder why UK govt chose to help one side with weapons in these specific conflicts. The difference here is of course, protestors are there on their own free will (for the most part, I guess?), whilst I don't have a say in how my tax money is being used.

I don't understand how a tiny country like Israel has become so important in global politics. By population Rwanda is ~30% larger than Israel.

Israel and Iran used to be BFFs.

#338I don’t get why Israel waged war on Gaza instead of just going for the guy who ordered the attack. Any thoughts?
Oct. 7 was incredibly useful for Israel give it the casus belli to destroy resistance and settle Gaza. Lebanon will be the cherry on top.
Why kill one guy when you can kill all resistance and (future possible) resistance and tada you have a bunch of land and can expand your borders.

#339When was the last time a head of state was arrested by the ICC?
> When was the last time a head of state was arrested by the ICC? It also acts as a deterrent as much of the world will now likely be out of bounds for travel for either the Israelis or Hamas leadership who were issued warrants.
Dead men don't travel.

I’m sorry but this brazenly wrong and a form of propaganda; you need to provide evidence for your claims. Hamas-employed Gaza police shoot at gangs that rob the aid containers with the implicit protection of Israel . Many videos have been posted spuriously claiming without any evidence that the individuals highjackimg the aid “are Hamas” when all documented evidence points to the very opposite. Just two days ago: Gan…
> you need to provide evidence for your claims
There's tons of it, plenty of mainstream media reported it while it was happening. If you choose not to believe it, that's because of your biases and no amount of hard evidence will sway you.
Also ask yourself, why has Egypt had a blockade against Gaza for longer than Israel?
