Opposition motions calling for a range of economic and diplomatic sanctions, including the expulsion of Israel’s ambassador in Dublin Dana Erlich, were defeated in the Dail on Wednesday evening.
Proposals for Ireland to refer Israel to the International Criminal Court (ICC) were also voted down.
While the Government did not expel Russia’s ambassador after the invasion of Ukraine, it did back EU sanctions against Vladimir Putin’s regime and also referred its actions to the ICC.
So it doesnt matter how many innocent people you kill, but how many you say you want to kill?
Also how the fuck do you end up with saying all more than two million people in Gaza are evil and deserve to get killed with impu ity because of the actions of a group that has about 20.000-25.000 members?
That is textbook definition of collective punishment and a typical war crime.

collateral damage isnt legal by default. That would also be a get out of jail free card then, since all you need is the intend to hit one military target. collateral damage need to be proportional to the military target. and that it isnt here

Says the IDF. The same IDF that murders journalists while they wear press vests.
With the same logic you couldnt blame Hamas for shootingtheir rokets like this, because they cant build GPS guided ones.
Of course i can blame and every human rights organisation as well as the UN and experts on international law are doing so

The IDF spokesman said in the beginning of the offense, that the emphasis is on “damage not accuracy”. They are fully admitting to indiscriminate bombing of Gaza. It is ridicilous to try and paint them as the good guys fighting the bad guys.

it means without differentiation. so when the focus is on damage not accuracy, it is about maximizing the effect without discriminating who is affected, aka indiscriminate.
