  • The actual text:

    Israel must, in accordance with its obligations under the Genocide Convention, in relation to Palestinians in Gaza, take all measures within its power to prevent the commission of all acts within the scope of Article II of this Convention, in particular: (a) killing members of the group; (b) causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group

    The paraphrasing:

    The State of Israel shall … desist from the commission of any and all acts within the scope of Article II of the Convention, in particular: (a) killing members of the group; (b) causing serious bodily or mental harm to the members of the group

    It looks like the only difference here is changing "take all measures within its power to prevent the commission of", to "desist from the commission of", which is fairly reasonable and doesn't change the meaning, since "desist" alone can be taken to mean "refrain from" or "cease".

    So yes, I must be dense, because I still can't see how your accusation of changing the language holds water. Also, it seems to be para. 78 we're dealing with, not 79, whose subject is incitement.

  • We haven't seen "literally nothing". That is a flat lie. There is a ton of evidence, presented by organisations who you choose to call liars because it allows you to deny the truth. There are non US affiliated organisations calling the Party out, too. A true humanist would not dismiss the evidence of the Xinjiang genocide. Both the Palestinians and the Uyghurs are facing genocide, and you're petty enough to be tribal about it. Fuck you and the horse you rode in on you monstrous cunt.

  • Ok yeah, source for the number of people in UNRWA is UNRWA. Source for the number of people accused is Israel. Source for the Channel 4 findings is....Channel 4. Was there any fact in particular you don't want to be true take issue with?
    The US government didn't say that all of UNRWA are terrorists. Only you did that.

  • Wasn't it about 0.04% of UNRWA who were accused of being involved in the terror attack? Even if the accusations turn out to be true*, your claim that "UNRWA are literally terrorists" is about as accurate as saying that all Israelis are terrorists. Because some Israelis most certainly are.

    I'm not trying to convince you, because you clearly haven't used rational thinking to arrive at your perspective. But you could at least try to make your argument a little bit more credible.

    *They're not true. According to Channel 4, the intelligence report "contains no evidence to support Israel's claim."

  • If you're pointing to the last phalange on both hands, that would be "110" (156) though wouldn't it. Since it would be "10" x "10" + "10".
    We could also use this method to count to 100 in base-10 using only the first 10 phalanges of the hand.

  • Save the media. Don't base your identity on a username. Realise that you've salted the earth and delete the now-toxic accounts. That's kind of the whole point of anon forums, you don't have to drag a reputation around with you.
    There's a different perspective here, which I think you might be missing: the stakes you're talking about are so low as to be negligible, from an outside perspective. You don't have to be as worried about this issue as you are. I think the advice you've gotten on this thread so far is sound. Take some time, take some distance. Do something else for a while and shift your focus. You'll start to see things differently. Get distracted. Part of being independent is doing the shit our parents used to do for us, and one of those is distracting yourself from unnecessary bullshit. I'm an extremely obsessive person myself, and learning when and how to let shit go is as liberating as it is seemingly impossible. I honestly can't recommend it enough.
    All this is said with love, and I hope you find your way, internet stranger.

  • Yes, but I haven't seen the footage, I'm so incredibly busy you see. So I couldn't possibly remark on whether or not this is or was a war crime. And, actually, it's really quite gauche of you to ask, to be perfectly honest.

    Edit: context

  • Don't know what you've got against this index, but it's telling the truth here. Britain is becoming more and more corrupt.
    Or do you think the UK hasn't been sliding into corruption the past 10 years? I'm having trouble defining the point of your comment.
