Sure, Israel has committed war crimes and genocide per Geneva and UN definitions. So has HAMAS, Iran, Hezbollah, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, et al.
None of those countries or entities besides israel are guilty of committing genocide, what the fuck are you smoking?
You sure NONE of these countries have committed genocide? I see Iran and Saudi in that list too.
Saudi Arabia, sure. It's a popular pass time for America and it's allies. Iran? Tell me more.
Again: what the fuck are you people smoking, lmao?
Who has Iran admitted to genociding? Why do you just make up shit like this without evidence while pretending you’ve read anything “serious”? No one’s fooled by your midwittery.
Exactly, almost every country in the list is guilty of genocide. I don't know much about Hezbollah, but only someone born yesterday would think Iran is innocent. Like hell literally few months ago Iran was massacring it's own citizens, and that news somehow flew off his radar? Also has this guy never heard of Saddam Hussain?
The usa is killing citizens too and kidnap people based on the skin color then send many to other autocratic countries like el salvador where they are tortured and also killed .
Which reputable human right and international law organization prove iran is comiting a genocide?
Their own citizens who the mossad admitted were mossad agents on the ground, lol? What kind of radar do you have where you missed that one?
If you don’t even know what the term “genocide” means, then don’t vomit up nonsense about it.
