    Human Rights Watch Says Israel Is Using Starvation as Weapon of War
    HRW says the Israeli tactic is a war crime
    by Dave DeCamp Posted onDecember 18, 2023CategoriesNewsTagsGaza, Israel


    Human Rights Watch released a report on Monday that said Israel is committing a war crime in Gaza by using starvation as a weapon of war against civilians.

    HRW said Israeli forces are “deliberately blocking the delivery of water, food, and fuel, while willfully impeding humanitarian assistance, apparently razing agricultural areas, and depriving the civilian population of objects indispensable to their survival.”

    His problems are health related. He has two knees that are very bad, which make it nearly impossible for him to walk. He has sciatic nerve damage in his back and neck. He has bad diverticulitis that led to colon surgery like a year or two ago. He also has had an abdominal surgery in the last few years, he only has one kidney and he has been diagnosed with a autoimmune disorder. Not to mention, he is like 87-88 years old.

    He looks swollen and puffy because he is basically dying - his digestive system and endocrine system is screwed up.

    I don't agree with the Catholic Church on a lot of things, and don't agree with Francis on somethings as well - but, he has been the least corrupt leader the Catholic Church has had in a very long time. The conservative branch of his own religion has tried everything possible to tie him to sexual abuse scandals, etc. and they have came up with nothing. He appears to be genuine.

    Poor ATW ,so much guilt for his NAZI relatives. Hey, guy we have more freedom of expression than you grew up in Germany which banned speech they were afraid might lead to a rebirth of fascism. Sort of wierd that ATW is using our freedom of speech to indirectly support fascism.

    I sincerely wonder if you care about any ideas, policies, ideologies etc in life outside of "make sure Biden is perceived as great".

    Like do you provide anything else beyond that line of rhetoric here out of your hundreds of posts here?


    Is Biden a family member of yours? Are you getting monetary gain out of it? I can't believe it's sincere cheerleading of a politician. Who unironically does that? That's a right wing thing to worship politicians.

    IVe already told you this that i own a CPAP supply store that has gotten thousands of new patients cuz of bidens expanded aca subsidies. In indiana alone close to 700k new applicants have gotten insurance as biden has made obamacare free for families making less than 60k which is most folks here. Biden antitrust team with Lina khan has blocked hedge funds from buying smaller companies up in my space which has allowed me to grow and make alot of $$.

    Also im not sure your dipshit attack on me about biden. Biden is the only thing stopping this country from turning into full blown dictatorship. Hes been a good president and i have no problem in supporting him. If you dont like it you can always put me on ignore. I sincerely dont give a **** what you do man.

    I was about to post this, not only are they doctors, nurses and paramedics, but they admitted to being part of the freaking terrorist conscripts... this blows my mind...."innocent hospital staff" my ass

    https://m.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-778679

    Next, he said that many of the hospital staff doubled as members of Hamas’s az-al-adin al-Qasam brigades. These include doctors, nurses, paramedics, and other staff.

    Do you have an opinion of any aspect of society that doesn't include Joe Biden?

    Why are you even talking to someone like this who is obviously going to vote for Biden over Trump?

    Are you upset I'm not enthusiastically voting for him?

    Yes i think adults under the age of 18 changing genders is ****ing insane and weird as ****. I also think teaching LGBTQ policies to kid is wrong and we should remove culture wars from the education department. Also the idea of taking police away or cut police funding is r****ded and we should hire another million police to patrol the streets. Cops are good people for the most part.

    Israel didn’t like Benedict either. Israelis by and large are anti-Catholic and anti-Christianity as a whole (it makes sense though, since both Christianity and Islam could be considered wildly successful Jewish heresies).
