In blatant violation of international law, particularly international humanitarian law, the Israeli army has executed 13 children by direct shooting in Al-Shifa Medical Complex and its Gaza City environs. This is a war crime and a crime against humanity, and is part of the genocide that the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip having been experiencing for the past six months.

For over a week now, the Israeli army has been conducting systematic and horrifying military operations inside and around Al-Shifa Medical Complex. These crimes include extrajudicial executions and deliberate killings of Palestinian civilians. The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor field team has received identical testimonies about the killings and executions of Palestinian children between the ages of four and 16.

Some of the fatal shootings occurred during an Israeli army siege while the victims’ families were inside their homes; others occurred when the victims attempted to escape via routes that the Israeli army had designated as “safe” after forcibly evacuating them from their homes and places of residence.

    I think a one state solution is unreasonable because it’d necessarily lead to a large cultural minority and I simply don’t trust Isreali voters not to continue to oppress the Muslim population. It’s a fucking complicated situation and I wish the politics weren’t religiously framed but in the short term I’d be concerned about political retaliation against whoever the minority is.

      It’s not as big of a gap as you think. There are 7 million Palestinians in Palestine and Israel (not counting Jordan or Lebanon, let alone the rest of the world) compared to the same number of Jews in Israel. This is enough for either group to hold the other in check. Then we remember that not all Jews are right-wing, so in effect the people we don’t want running the government will be overwhelmingly a minority).
