Definitely but OHCHR will probably use cautious language until it has a full report.

unmagical , to World News in New Zealand begins sentencing of those involved in White Island volcanic eruption

According to headline only, I assume they are planning on trying the Earth.

But for real though, would it have broken the bank to pick something like "NZ to begin sentencing negligent tour agency after Eruption resulted in the death of 22 patrons?"

livus OP ,

@unmagical yes that headline really does make it sound like they have some 80s James Bond movie villains who created the eruption.

I am publishing this article because I received a report about a post reporting the same news, but which was deleted because doubts were expressed about the reliability of the site used as a source.

Unfortunately that post, published by one of our users, was totally founded and correct

Well, in Italy police violence against students even forced the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella to issue a statement criticizing the behavior of the police.

It was me... I chose the article which best described those facts, unfortunately there was very little attention given to the event by the international press, so only few sources were available. I preferred to delete my post because the accusation of being "Erdoğan's propaganda" would have led the article to be ignored. I posted a more neutral press agency note in another more "tolerant" community to avoid similar effects again.

Lo so bene, perché come amministratore di feddit.de ho ricevuto una segnalazione riguardante il contenuto da te pubblicato e, trovandomi in Italia e seguendo bene le notizie italiane, ho potuto constatare che la notizia era vera e non doveva essere riportata: infatti è sbagliato riportare contenuti solo perché le fonti sono di parte. Se le fonti sono parziali, questo dovrebbe essere affrontato nella discussione.

A questo proposito colgo l'occasione per ricordare agli amministratori di feddit.it che la community europea https://feddit.de/c/europe risulta attualmente priva di moderatore.

Linkerbaan OP ,

The Houthi's have openly stated that they will lift their blockade whenever israel stops their Genocide.

For more information here's a concise video

DdCno1 ,

That is one garbage Youtube channel. How can you recommend clickbait nonsense like this?

Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

Explain exactly what is garbage. Do you want Yoav Gallant explaining everything?

BombOmOm ,

In that video, he argues Houthis are shooting ships delivering weapons to Israel. However, basically all of the ships the Houthis attacked were not even heading to or from Israel. Yemen does not have any moral leg to stand on when shooting civilians peaceably trading via the sea.

We will continue to destroy those attacking civilian shipping until they are no longer able to do so.

Edit: The Houthis just this week struck a ship carrying humanitarian aid to Yemen. Fuck the Houthis.

Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

Every target they Houthi's hit so far has been directly related to their claims. Claims that they were not related have been proven false. The recent oil tanker was British. The first big hijacked ship was israeli.

The ship you are talking about had a US flag. Do you see Russian flagged aid trucks going into to Ukraine too?

Billy ,
Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

The ship to Iran was American.

The Marshall Islands-flagged vessel is owned by US-listed Star Bulk Carriers Corp.

Massive props to the Houthi's for being consistent in their blockade and not just allowing ships through because it would strategically benefit them.

Shipping companies are extremely secretive about their ownership. They fly one flag, are owned by someone else, but also used by another company that leases them etc.

The fact is: Every ship that has been hit so far did have ties to the countries that the Houthi's are not allowing passage until their Genocide in israel is over.

God is the Greatest

Linkerbaan OP ,

No I'm explaining the cause of anti-semitism. Which is israel. Israel keeps using the good Jewish name as a shield for their Genocide.

Only since israel started using Judaism as a shield for their Nazi behavior did this false correlation start.

Arabs have no problem with Jews. It was in Europe that Pogroms were a regular occurance.

Billy ,

Arabs have no problem with Jews. It was in Europe that Pogroms were a regular occurance.

Baghdad farhud 1941

Allahdad 1839 pogrom

Mawza Exile 1679-1680

Damascus Affair 1840

Granada Massacre 1066

1834 looting of Safed

Fez massacre 1033

Yemen
"In the late 1160s, the Yemenite ruler 'Abd-al-Nabī ibn Mahdi gave Jews a choice of conversion to Islam or martyrdom."

(893) "Under the Zaydi rule, the Jews were considered to be impure and therefore forbidden to touch a Muslim or a Muslim's food. They were obligated to humble themselves before a Muslim, to walk to the left side, and greet him first. They could not build houses higher than a Muslim's or ride a camel or horse, and when riding on a mule or a donkey, they had to sit sideways. Upon entering the Muslim quarter a Jew had to take off his foot-gear and walk barefoot. If attacked with stones or fists by youth, a Jew was not allowed to fight them. In such situations, he had the option of fleeing or seeking intervention by a merciful Muslim passerby."

Egypt
"In 1300 Sultan Al-Nasir Qalawan ordered all Jews under his rule to wear yellow headgear to isolate the Egyptian Jewish community.  This law would be enforced for centuries and later amended in 1354 to force all Jews to wear a sign in addition to yellow headwear. On multiple occasions the ulema persuaded the government to close or convert synagogues. Even major places of pilgrimage for Egyptian Jews such as the Dammah Synagogue were forced to close in 1301. Jews subsequently were excluded from bath houses and were prohibited to work in the national treasury. This repression of the Jewish community would continue for centuries."

and more
"In 1656, all Jews were expelled from Isfahan and forced to convert to Islam because of a common belief that their Jewishness was impure."
"in 1661 they were allowed to revert to Judaism, although they were still required to wear a distinctive patch on their clothing."

muslims made jews wear patches before the nazis did.

Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

Farhud (also Farhood; Arabic: الفرهود) was the pogrom or the "violent dispossession" that was carried out against the Jewish population of Baghdad, Iraq, on 1–2 June 1941, immediately following the British victory in the Anglo-Iraqi War.

THE BRITS took over Baghdad and then did Pogroms. Let's blame the Arabs!

Don't look up what European colonialism had to do with Jewish persecution either that's going to be very inconvenient.

I also clicked on the Damascus Affair 1840 link. Since you didn't, I'll help you out.

Spoiler alert: It's Europe again:

Since the beginning of the sixteenth century, Syria had been part of the Ottoman Empire (1299–1922). However, in 1831, eight years before the Tanzimat reforms, Ottoman Syria had come under the control of the Egyptian Muhammad Ali, the viceroy of Ottoman Egypt who had turned against the sultan. Muhammad Ali was said to have been influenced by European powers, particularly by France, which often attempted to safeguard and ameliorate the position of members of Catholic orders in the region.

Apollo ,

And what about all of those other examples you have conveniently overlooked?

Linkerbaan OP ,
@Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

In classic Hasbara fashion this person took a list of Wikipedia links that sounded convenient and did not read them

I read the top and the middle article at random which were fully BS and actually disproved the claims. The quotes to disprove them were provided

A person can't link 50 examples and pretend I have to debunk every single one. Two is plenty.

Next time someone provides a list a good idea for them is to read it themselves to make sure they can actually use it as argument.

"Total victory"?

Sounds like this stain on humanity wants some kind of "final solution"

ModernRisk ,
@ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The thing is, it will never happen.

Sure, they might “win” in terms of military and/or stealing land. But as long as they keep oppressing, stealing and murdering - there will be people fighting against it.

Even if there’s no Palestinian left on Palestinian ground. There will be people from different countries fighting back. One way or another.

“If peaceful revolution is not possible, violent revolution is inevitable”.

This whole thing seems to be a never-ending cycle which makes me immensely sad. For both, the Palestinian people and the normal civilians of Israel.

From what I have read and heard, Israel haven’t seen any actual peace ever since they made the state. I think, they’ve been on ‘high alert for attacks’ ever since being made. Correct me if I’m wrong though.

IchNichtenLichten ,
@IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world avatar

I wouldn't say "never".

Peace can happen but the Israelis need to remove Netanyahu and elect somebody who actually wants a two state solution. After that, there's a whole lot of diplomacy from both sides needed, free Palestinian elections, stolen land being returned, removal of blockades and control of infrastructure, and so on.

It's not impossible, just really, really difficult. Especially with leadership on both sides not being especially interested in peace. That's why Bibi needs to be slung out of office ASAP. Nothing good will happen while that monster has power.

EvergreenGuru ,

That’s just the price of being an invader nation. By definition, Israel can never know peace, only armistices between further acts of war. Unless they manage to genocide Palestinians world wide, they will always face attacks on their invader population/infrastructure/society. It’s a feature of colonization. Netanyahu knows this, but is trying to maintain his position by bringing home an unattainable victory.

girlfreddy OP , to World News in Palestinians hope Blinken visit can deliver Gaza truce before Rafah assault
@girlfreddy@lemmy.ca avatar

And there it is again, Israel attacking a location where they told Palestinians to shelter in.

Keep in mind there is a leaked document dated Oct 13 (leaked on Nov. 1) where Israel outlines 3 options regarding Gaza residents ... " the third option, the evacuation of civilians in Gaza to Sinai, would "yield positive, long-term strategic outcomes for Israel," the document stated."

Rafah is just northeast of the Egypt/Gaza border.

BombOmOm , to News in How Yemen’s Houthi rebels are carrying out attacks on Red Sea ships

Fortunately, a coalition of allies are defending civilian ships from Houthi attacks. Both by rebutting the vast majority of the munitions in flight, as well as blowing up the assailants and munitions before they are used. Things like the helicopter-based hijacking of a civilian ship in November are no longer possible for the Houthis.
