Brilliant. Now we've got the obvious out of the way, what the fuck is anyone or anything with power going to do about it?

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Nothing as long as the US backs them 100%

Once the UN commission of Strongly Worded Letters steps in we will see some progress.
What do you want them to do? A commission goal is to investigate and come to an conclussion then it is the job of the UN members to do their obligations and do actions based on that finding
I want both parties to cover themselves in oil and wrestle.
Not taking two years to determine the most obvious genocide in world history would be nice.
I said that in a previous comment it's the ICJ part of the UN that is problematic. They have all the evidences and still didn't declare it as a genocide. They took 12 years after it ended to declare the Bosnia genocide
For sure, but there are also other UN commissions which completely failed at their job, and this is one of them.
This commission itself should be prosecuted for being complicit in genocide.
For sure, but there are also other UN commissions which completely failed at their job, and this is one of them
What do you mean? They where asked to prove there is a genocide , they concluded there is a genocide so where is the failure?
Time window.
Sorry but as horrific and clear as it is. this isn't the most obvious genocide in world history.
do you even know what has happened ho historically?
Which genocide are you referring to?
I don't think the previous comment was directed at the commission.
The world has been watching the genocide for nearly 2 years now and no meaningful action has been taken to stop it by any country.
I think the point that was being made is that the UN appears to be completely powerless as long as the US continues to back Israel (and still has veto power in the security council).
He literally said un commission rather than the UN. And the UN is also constituted from many entities some have no executive power. Blaming icj specifically is something i agree eith there is no reason why it take them so long to admit the genocide
I'm not going to argue about what @CluckN@sh.itjust.works meant, but it seemed pretty clear to me that the problem is all of the countries who aren't doing anything.
Yeah no idea what that bozo is thinking
but it seemed pretty clear to me that the problem is all of the countries who aren’t doing anything.
I agree
You don't fucking say. What convinced you? Was it the Geno or the Cide?
Oh, they must have only just woken up and had a coffee...
performative action to satiate the critics. they know full well they dont want to do anything about it.
By now, given the whole purposeful mass killing of civilians by Starvation, it's probably at the level of a Holocaust.
No waaaay...
Israel’s foreign ministry said it categorically rejected the report and called for the COI to be abolished. Israel’s ambassador to the UN in Geneva, Daniel Meron, called the report a scandalous and fake “libellous rant” that had been authored by “Hamas proxies”. Israel has declined to cooperate with the COI, accusing it of having a political agenda.
Nobody gives a damn about israel opinion
An ad hominem denial
