War crimes in Gaza

NO one in their right mind could offer a word of support for what Hamas did in Israel. What Hamas did was not engage the Israeli army but to attack innocent civilians. No one in their right mind could even utter a whisper of support for what the Israeli government is doing in Gaza at the moment.

The Israeli government is engaged in war crimes. Here now is a description of one of the most proven occurrences of war crimes since World War 11 ended. The Israeli army announced a corridor of safety for Gaza residents to leave and while they were doing that, the air force bombed them. The Israeli air force bombed civilians fleeing to safety. Over 70 persons died, including helpless women and children.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued a warrant for President Putin for forcefully moving children from Ukraine to Russia in the current conflict. If a country ‘s air force could advise civilians to leave an area of engagement for their own safety, then when they were fleeing bomb them to death, then, if that is not a war crime then, why is Putin facing an arrest warrant?
No one could justify what Hamas did. But the Government of Israel is committing equal atrocities in which a greater number of women and children have been killed. A mere description of what is taking place in Gaza shows you the extent to which war crimes are being perpetrated.

The air force is bombing a narrow strip of land measuring 139 square miles of 2.23 million people. Right now there is total destruction of buildings in Gaza and in those buildings, people live, and when the bombs are dropped, people die. There are powerful countries in the world such as South Africa, Türkiye (Turkey), Mexico and Brazil that could use their membership of the ICC to ask for the arrest of the Prime Minister of Israel, Mr. Netanyahu.

It becomes a comic tragedy to have Putin arrested for removing children from the Ukraine and not have Netanyahu arrested for the indiscriminate bombing of thousands of civilians in Gaza. Statistics from last Friday showed 1,900 Palestinians were killed; half of these numbers are women and children. As of today (Monday), those figures would have gone up.
The Israeli air force is obliterating hospitals and humanitarian centres. There is no water, no electricity, no food, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. What is taking place in the Gaza Strip are absolute and undiluted war crimes.

The BCC has actual video footage of the civilian convoy being bombed out of existence and has made it available on its digital site. This cannot be accepted by any human living on Planet Earth. Every human who refuses to condemn the bombing of that convoy is unfit to be a human. Let me repeat, this was the air-force of a country dropping bombs not on an invading army or a military convoy in action, but on civilians fleeing for safety.

What is important for every human to know about what is taking place in Gaza is that there is no standing army on the ground in Gaza that is confronting the Israeli jets. Not even one missile has been fired at the Israeli jets. What is happening in Gaza is that jets are simply bombing a piece of land where civilians are running for their lives.
The Western media speaks all the time of a war. There is no war in the Gaza as there is a war right now between the two armed forces of Russia and Ukraine. There is no country named Gaza whose armed forces are engaged in a war. Gaza does not have a standing army or air force.

Please tune in tonight at 8.30 PM to the Freddie Kissoon –Gildarie Show where Sheik Aleem Rahim and Maulana Abu Bakr will offer the Palestinian perspective on what is taking place in Palestine right now. The show will offer an Israeli perspective if such personnel is available. If there are any Israeli scholars available to offer their take then please contact me at 614-5927. My email is fredkissoon@yahoo.com.

I would like to repeat my rejection and revulsion at what Hamas did and all the peoples of the world must condemn it. All the peoples of the world must immediately condemn the insanities of barbarities that the Israeli armed forces are inflicting on innocent humans in Gaza.

I monitor the Western media without exception every day. It was a pro-Israeli stance from day one. But as the bestialities and cruelties are revealed in Gaza, there is now a shift. The Western media are giving coverage to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The Israeli wanton killing of civilians must stop.
