"War Crime" seems to be thrown around these days about like "racist" and "anti-semite".

Yep, the man basically disowned his father publicly months ago. The truth may be hard to say or hear, but it's the best medicine for the ills of mankind.

I'm loathe to say this, especially after I've lauded Bibi's warrior mindset several times, but he's disappointing me greatly of late. This war should have been over 3 months ago, except he's been swayed by international pressures brought on by Hamas propaganda.
Now, instead of going into Rafa like he announced he'd to three weeks ago, he's pulled the majority of his forces out of the South.
Hamas is winning both the propaganda war and the kinetic war on the ground, and it's Bibi paying attention to the people who hated Israel before the war, and have just gotten louder.
A large portion of the blame can be placed on Biden & co, more worried about the Muslims in Michigan shouting "Death To America" while basically abandoning our only true ally in the Middle East. But, the responsibility for the existence of Israel is Netanyahu's, whether Obama/Biden approve or not.
I read an article today describing Israel bombing three Hamas missile launch sites in what had been declared a "refugee zone". There's video of missiles being launch from those sites, then the bombs hitting them. But, the article pointed out Israel had warned the people near those sites of their impending elimination. Okay, so bowing to international pressure they allowed the people lighting off those missiles to escape, afraid of civilian causalities who are 80% Hamas supporters. That's not how wars are fought. Killing the enemy, and unfortunately sometimes innocents is how you not only defeat the enemy, but turn the civilians against them too. The location for those launch sites wasn't chosen by accident. It was chosen purposely to maximize "innocent" Gazan civilian deaths for propaganda purposes. The headlines in the NYT and WaPo write themselves - "Israel Bombs Refugee Camps!!"
Netanyahu has a War Cabinet that so far has stood with him, what's happened to their backbones I don't know, or his for that matter. But allowing Hamas to live through this war, claim victory, and commit more atrocities in the future against innocents is unforgivable.

🚨JUST IN: U.S. Navy ships filled with infrastructure & construction materials bound for Gaza pier wave hello as they pass Francis Scott Key bridge. Yes, this is satire. I think. brew

The building a pier in Gaza crap is beyond ridiculous. Just another way for some politicians to get a chunk of money to put in their pockets.

Now, there's 28 people who are un-hireable. Imagine applying for a job and telling the prospective employer the reason you got fired was because you made political demands on the previous employer, disrupted the corporate offices, and were arrested when they wouldn't cede to your demands.
Yeah, come right in, you're just the kind of person we've been looking for, we're planning on going bankrupt next month and you can help.

www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/bbc-admits-its-reporting-of-gaza-civilian-deaths-was-inaccurate/ar-AA1nFBvv?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=5e76a4f1a8fc4ccba60df8518a9b266f&ei=40BBC admits its reporting of Gaza ‘civilian’ deaths was inaccurate The BBC has admitted that its reporting of “civilian” casualties in Gaza was inaccurate and included the deaths of Hamas fighters. A report on BBC One’s News at Ten bulletin on Jan 14 covered a vigil in Tel Aviv marking 100 days since the Oct 7 attacks on Israel. Reporter Wyre Davies said two minutes into the report: “And the number of civilians killed in Gaza has been huge – very nearly 24,000 dead, according to the Hamas-run health ministry, many of them women and children.” The BBC’s editorial complaints unit upheld a complaint from a viewer, finding that the report “fell below the BBC’s standards of accuracy”. When the viewer complained that the report gave an inaccurate impression, failing to make clear that the quoted figure included combatants as well as civilians, the BBC initially responded by saying that the passage consisted of two separate sentences – with a full stop after “huge” – and that each sentence conveyed “distinct thoughts”. Complaint escalated However, the viewer took his complaint to the BBC’s higher Editorial Complaints Unit (ECU), which disagreed with the initial response. In its findings, the unit said: “In the ECU’s judgment, it was more probable that viewers would have heard the passage as a single sentence. But even if a full stop were the correct punctuation, the passage gave the unintended impression that the figure from the Hamas-run health ministry consisted only of civilian dead, whereas it also included combatants.” more at link

Except for the very real possibility that the media is rooting for Hamas, I can't understand why they'd even listen to anything the Ministry of Health has to say. They blew all their credibility with the fake claim about Israel bombing the hospital. After that, anything the came out with should have been laughed at.
