United Nations accuses Israel of committing numerous war crimes in Gaza

Damning reports from the United Nations have found Israel guilty of a range of war crimes, with Israel’s army being described as “one of the most criminal in the world” due to its “systematic” approach to the “extermination” of Palestinians.

In a video address on June 19 from Geneva, Switzerland, UN Inquiry Chief Navi Pillay said:

We conclude that Israeli authorities are responsible for war crimes, crimes against humanity… including extermination, internationally directing attacks against civilians… using starvation as a method of war… torture [and] sexual violence.

These folks (LifeSite) seem eager to besmirch Israel -- this is NOT posted to push that narrative, but only to highlight that the stakes seem to be getting higher, at least as far as the narrative is concerned.

Until the UN acknowledges and condemns the “Palestinians” for their innumerable war crimes, they can pound sand. I could not possible have less respect for the UN.

The U.N. is one giant “war crime”.

Name one war it ever prevented. None.

Ever letting in any dictators and any non-democracies helped secure the U.N.’s failure.

Worse - the U.N. needs to be “out” of the world.

If democracies want any such thing it needs to be their own and it has to stay out of pretending to devise cultural, “development”, education and similar agendas for the world. Any replacement of the U.N. should have that crap not provided for in its writ, and no way to get it added either.

It is well past time to get teh US out of the UN and UN out of the US.
Nothing good happens via the UN, as it serves only to advance the OWG BS.

Even if "Until the UN acknowledges and condemns the “Palestinians” for their innumerable war crimes, they can pound sand. I could not possible have less respect for the UN".

There you go.

If Israel were intent on genocide, why didn’t they bomb the civilian corridors they opened to the South?

Would have been most effective.

Yet they didn’t.

Putting the lie to the genocide narrative.

A terrorist support group, the United Nations, accuses Israel of war crimes. What a surprise.

I accuse the UN of starting the war and helping Hamas to commit the war crimes that started the conflict. The UN RWA was absolutely involved. It’s really hard to take their ‘findings’ seriously when they promote Jewish Genicide, Rape, Murder, kidnapping, child torture.

Yes it was. When they showed the film to Israelis and others on the Israeli side, they had to cut out the part about the babies, which was apparently even worse than the rest of it.

Naturally, the UN is holding Israel accountable before Hamas. Assuming they ever try to go after Hamas. When we all know the UNRWA, Hamas, and PA are all working together to bring down Israel.
