Hacker News is an American website. Hacker News allows political discussion. Israel is very relevant to American politics, many would argue too much so, but in any case, why shouldn't it be discussed here?

Because it's not intellectually interesting and because it falls in the off-topic category based on the guidelines of this site. > If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic People don't come to Hacker News to talk about wars. They come to get away from wars.

Nuremberg was only possible because Germany was invaded succesfully by allied forces. All this war crime talk is nonsense. Either talk about sending your own children to war against Israel, or criticize them in other real terms.

"One high-profile journalist targeted in this way was Al Jazeera reporter Anas Al-Sharif, who was killed along with four colleagues in an Israeli airstrike earlier this month. After his death, the Israeli army quickly circulated documents claiming he had been a Hamas operative since 2013. "Yet even if taken at face value, the files showed his last contact with Hamas was in 2017 – years before the current war," said F…
I need you to know that you're defending and justifying war crimes while blindly swallowing the propaganda of a genocidal regime. Needless to say, it's not exactly making you look too good.

Cool, now enforce it. Oh? You can't? "International law" is just a bunch of words some people wrote down? Okay, thanks for letting me know.
