This is a fine example of the irrational discourse that does damage to the whole situation.

Every case needs to be investigated thoroughly and punished accordingly.



> Every case needs to be investigated thoroughly and punished accordingly.

Which is the exact reason you should be concerned. Israel has zero accountability for their actions, many of which are documented war crimes.


Did I say I wasn’t concerned?


at the point, advocating for neutrality in the face of overwhelming evidence of war crimes day after day after day is a pretty clear indication of not being concerned.


> Every case needs to be investigated thoroughly and punished accordingly.

And who exactly do you propose should do that? The Israeli govt?


Hell no. Neither party in a conflict is in a position to do such an investigation. Who do you think?

ICC would be nice but the geopolitical gorilla in the room knocked them down.


The United States isn't preventing the Israeli state from cooperating with the ICC, Israel is.


So the civilians being murdered need to be investigated and punished? Hmm hot take.
