The problem here is the Jews have this vast empire of banking and media entities that their enemies can never compete with.

you must be joking? I've been Jewish for 36 years and of all the other Jews that I've met, I can't say one of them had ownership of this empire? You?

[dimejinky99]

While that may be true, social media and public awareness globally, being ignited from on the ground news sources instead of tailored spin and agenda, has become the only trustworthy way of finding anything out.
But will it affect what happens at the top level/international courts etc

[Yeddie Yedder]

You can't be serious. Social media has been the primary source of distorting the truth.

[dimejinky99]

Yeah, i have to disagree with that.

[BurtReynolds]

Is crazy Uncle Dime ranting about the Jews again? Every year we tell him to lay off the eggnog, and every year he ignores us.

[dimejinky99]

etc

[Yeddie Yedder]

Yeah, i have to disagree with that.

You disagree that a media platform that doesn't have any accountability and where content is produced at the discretion of the user isn't conducive to propaganda and distortion of the truth?

[dimejinky99]

that's pointless.
i disagree with the second best armed military in the world responding with air strikes and destruction in reaction to some kids throwing rocks, or playing football on a beach

edit-apparently that makes me bigoted..

False.

Hamas commits war crimes by indiscriminately firing artillery, IEDs, and gun fire at the Israeli civilian population. They fire in heavily populated civilian areas, because they count on Israeli reactions and subsequent Palestinian causalities. They do this because they know an open fight is useless and the human-sheild concept is far more effective. Hamas using international aid to further their genocidal endgame.

Palestinian and Israeli civilians have died as a result of this conflict and it is horrific. However, if you bothered to actual research (instead of spreading propaganda) you might see a deeper issue.

[dimejinky99]

Those three boys playing with a football on a beach and murdered by an Israeli battleships shell, weren't killed by a lie..they were killed by someone on an IDF naval vessel aiming at them and firing a bomb at them.

what are the Israeli civilian casualties again this year?

hamas is using international what now?
Israel wont let it in:) my pal was on a ship this year that the IDF boarded cos they were bringing that aid you mentioned to Gaza..as to research, i've two pals living(still alive!) in Gaza, they dont own a news channel to talk about how they cant access water or medical aid or food or education nor how they have to hide in bunkers and under rubble after curfew to avoid being blown apart.
Are you nearby? you should bring them for coffee!

Hopefully they aren't wasting their time..

Palestine seeks ICC probe into ‘Israeli war crimes’

The Palestinian Authority has asked the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate crimes committed in the Palestinian territories since June 13, 2014, ICC sources have said.

The investigation if launched could focus on the atrocities committed during the 50-day war on Gaza which began on July 8, 2014. More than 2,000 Palestinians, including hundreds of civilians, and 66 Israeli soldiers and five civilians were killed during the war.

The Palestinians also seek an investigation into the continuous building of Israeli settlements, considered as illegal under international law.

The probe could begin as soon as Palestine becomes a full member in the ICC and a signatory of the Rome Statute.

The Palestinians submitted documents to the United Nations to join court on Friday.

The Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, delivered the documents - known as instruments of ratification - to Assistant Secretary-General for Legal Affairs Stephen Mathias on Friday morning.

The International Criminal Court has recognized the U.N. General Assembly's recognition of Palestine as an observer state. Handing over the paperwork is the last formal step for Palestine to become a member of the ICC, which would take at least 60 days.

Palestinian President Mahmoud, under heavy pressure to take stronger action against Israel after a 50-day war with between the Jewish state and militants in Gaza over the summer, signed the documents after the Security Council rejected the resolution.

At the international court, the Palestinians could seek to have Israeli military or political figures prosecuted for alleged crimes involving settlement construction on occupied lands or actions by the military that cause heavy civilian casualties, for instance.
