‘Caged in toxic slum’: UN rights chief slams Israel over deadly Gaza protests

https://www.rt.com/news/427143-un-ga...ulation-caged/

Israel is depriving 1.9 million people in Gaza of basic rights and creating inhumane conditions, according to a UN human rights chief. He has also castigated the use of lethal force by Israel during the recent protests.

“They are, in essence, caged in a toxic slum from birth to death; deprived of dignity; dehumanised by the Israeli authorities,” UN High Commissioner for Human Rights stated.


Turkey vows to bring Israel to ICC over Gaza carnage, Tel Aviv says Ankara will be there first

Turkey suggested that Palestine appeals to the International Criminal Court over Israeli actions in Gaza, saying “crimes against humanity” should not remain unanswered. Tel Aviv said Turkey will appear there first.

“Israel should be taken to the International Criminal Court [over the killing of Palestinians]. Since third parties cannot do it, Palestine needs to initiate this,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told state broadcaster TRT Haber on Thursday, referring to the recent spike in violence in the Gaza Strip.

Ankara is now looking at what legal action can be taken against Israel, the diplomat said, calling the Israeli military’s use of live fire against civilians a crime. “This crime against humanity should be probed by an independent commission and Israel should account for its actions before the law,” Cavusoglu added.

It’s strange how the Arab world doesn’t seem to care much about the Palestinians.

It’s strange how the Arab world doesn’t seem to care much about the Palestinians.

True. The Palestinians are mainly supported nowadays by non-Arab Muslim countries like Turkey and Iran.

America's friend Saudi Arabia has been moving closer to an alliance with Israel. Saudi Arabia has been a primary supporter of Sunni terrorist organizations, such as Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Shia Muslims are generally more reasonable and moderate than Sunnis, and terrorist attacks outside the Middle East have nearly always been done by Sunnis.

Netanyahu and May ‘partners in crime’ over Gaza’s ‘rivers of blood’, Palestinian activist tells RT

Israel’s Knesset disqualified a bill that called for all citizens to be treated equally, rejecting the argument it must recognise the rights of its Arab minority as equal to the Jewish majority.

The text of the bill stated its objective was “to anchor in constitutional law the principle of equal citizenship while recognising the existence and rights of the two, Jewish and Arab, national groups living within the country”.

The bill was sponsored by Balad, an Arab political faction and member of the Joint List – an alliance of four predominantly Arab parties – in the parliament.

The Knesset Speaker had some very harsh words for the proposal. He basically said that anybody who supported it was an idiot.

Speaker Yuli Yoel Edelstein denounced the bill in a statement on the Knesset website on Tuesday.

“This is a preposterous bill that any intelligent individual can see must be blocked immediately. A bill that aims to gnaw at the foundations of the state must not be allowed in the Knesset,” Edelstein said.

“This is the first time since my appointment as Knesset speaker five years ago that I am recommending that the presidium disqualify a bill.”

Once again, this is another example of hypocrisy from Jews on racial issues. Jews will actively promote the concept of racial equality in every country except for Israel.

This is from al jezera. @DenilsonTheReturn you need to put Israel on your hate list or maybe u hate Arabs

It's clearly the most racist country in the world. Imagine if any other country refused a minority it's rights.

The UN General Assembly has adopted a nonbinding resolution condemning Israel’s use of ‘excessive force’ against Palestinian protesters in Gaza. A US amendment to condemn Hamas did not get enough support.

The resolution condemns Israel for “excessive use of force” against Palestinian demonstrators on the Israeli-Gaza border and calls for the “protection of the Palestinian civilian population” in Gaza. It was adopted with 120 votes in favor and 8 votes against, with 45 abstentions.
