Israel’s UNRWA ban a ‘new level in war against UN’, Palestinian envoy says

I legit don’t understand how they can block a UN agency? Like, what? Is that legal - I know they’re killing UN peacekeepers which should also be illegal but this seems a step even beyond that. Can countries just ban UN agencies from working there?

  • I made the mistake of looking up this news on Reddit, thinking this would be opposed by the people who love procedure and civility and “international law”.

    Big mistake. Don’t do it. You’ll burst your brain/heart from anger and sadness.

  • we are watching a people be erased, in real time.

    I don’t know what to say beyond stating the blatantly obvious.

  • However this all concludes whether it be: the worst case, best case, or mixed case scenario I honestly have to wonder out loud how anyone is expected to take phrases like "rules base international order" and "human rights" seriously ever again going forward?

    Like I'm not naive and I know it was always bullshit and the rules have always been whatever we say they are but like...is this really gonna just be a case where everything is memory holled and everyone just tried to act like it wasn't all exposed as a fucking sham for everyone to see?

    I'm struggling to be cynical enough to believe it will play out like that...so I worry I am naive.

  • You know a comment section is spicy when there's -6 new comments ban-hammer

  • When you’re a western puppet state, everything is legal

  • october 7th tho

  • Seems like a step up from murdering every UNRWA employee, which I assume was the only alternative anyone in the knesset considered.

  • Can someone teach me how to use the modlog? I want to see what that fascist piece of shit said to me
