It must be so fun to be the guy in the IDF who just gets to dream up new atrocity propaganda for western outlets to lap up unquestioningly.

New reports out of Israel state that Hamas was seen using Adava Kadavra, the unforgivable killing curse, on October 7th.

wait they didnt even pretend to have talked to any witnesses or victims? jfc

Nope, this remains the big constant between the old and new versions of this story, but now we get increasingly bizarre accusations like Hamas training NTR Supersoldiers added to the mix. They don't hesitate to add increasingly bizarre details that read more like the script of a particularly deranged piece of pornography than an actual report, so I guess they've opted to increase the salacious extremes of the story rather than serving up something that might give it more credibility, but would be falisifiable. I guess it makes sense when you have media that will report on anything you say with absolute credulity, to an audience that is primarily motivated by psychotic bloodlust. Israel seems to have fully realized that they've lost their capacity to reach a normal audience, so now they just need to tell their supporters what they want to hear; the more lurid, the better.

US Muslim group calls for rebuke of congressman who said ‘kill them all’

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has called on every member of Congress to condemn Republican Congressman Andy Ogles for appearing to call for the mass murder of Palestinians.

Ogles was confronted by activists calling for a ceasefire, and a woman was telling him about the footage of Palestinian children killed by Israel, when he responded: “I think we should kill them all if that makes you feel better – everybody, Hamas.”

CAIR Deputy Director Edward Mitchell said in a statement: “If a member of Congress had called for every Israeli child to be killed, the entire American political establishment would rightfully condemn such remarks and call for, at the least, censure.”

surely he will be censured for such hateful rhetoric

US, partners will continue to protect Red Sea shipping from Houthi attacks – State Dept.
21 February 2024, 11:25 pm

The United States and its partners will “continue to take appropriate action” to protect Red Sea shipping from attacks by the Houthi militia, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller says.

“The United States condemns the reckless and indiscriminate attacks on civilian cargo ships by the Houthis. The Houthis are behaving like a terrorist organization,” he says in a statement.

they can override US veto if they take it to the general assembly, right? idk the process to do that tho

not sure if this was answered but no, the ~permanent members~ of the security council each have an absolute veto over security council resolutions (and also general secretary elections, peacekeeping actions, member state elections, and member state expulsions). this veto cannot be overcome by any means. the security council can't veto general assembly resolutions, but that doesn't matter because the general assembly is not empowered to pass binding resolutions anyway

this btw is the reason that the general assembly is so ~biased~ against israel, always unfairly & antisemitically singling them out over all the other nations committing all the other atrocities on the globe, etc. etc. it's because those other nations can and do have binding resolutions passed against them by the security council. everyone knows that the only body that could pass a resolution against israel is the general assembly, so that's the only place they even try

i just looked it up:

"Slate.com posted:

There’s an esoteric maneuver to get around a threatened veto: invoking the obscure U.N. Resolution 377, also known as the “Uniting for Peace” Resolution. In early 1950, the United States pushed through the resolution as a means of circumventing possible Soviet vetoes. The measure states that, in the event that the Security Council cannot maintain international peace, a matter can be taken up by the General Assembly. This procedure has been used 10 times so far, most notably in 1956 to help resolve the Suez Canal crisis. Britain and France, which were occupying parts of the canal at the time, vetoed Security Council resolutions calling for their withdrawal. The United States called for an emergency “Uniting for Peace” session of the General Assembly, which passed a withdrawal resolution. (A simple majority vote is required.) Britain and France pulled out shortly after.

Yet these non-Security Council resolutions are more symbolic pressure tactics than anything else. The council still maintains responsibility for enforcement, so naysayers among the permanent members can likely prevent the actual dispatching of troops. Nor, as history has shown, will all nations buckle like Britain and France did in 1956. In 1980, the General Assembly convened in a “Uniting for Peace” session and passed a resolution demanding the Soviet Union’s withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Soviets merely shrugged.

seems relevant

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_General_Assembly_Resolution_377

quote:

Middle East (1982) – US veto – 9th Emergency Special Session
Invoked by Security Council Resolution 500. Ninth Emergency Special Session on "The Situation in the Middle East" adopted Resolution ES-9/1 declaring Israel a non-peace-loving state and calling on members to apply a number of measures on Israel.

quote:

Middle East (1967) – USSR failed to obtain 9 votes – 5th Emergency Special Session
Further information: Six-Day War
Invoked by General Assembly at the request of USSR (A/6717) and vote (98-3-3). Fifth Emergency Special Session on "The Situation in the Middle East" adopted six resolutions, including Resolutions 2253 and 2254 (ES-V) calling on Israel to rescind unilateral measures in Jerusalem.

quote:

Palestine (1980) – US veto – 7th Emergency Special Session
Invoked by General Assembly request Senegal (A/ES-7/1). Seventh Emergency Special Session on "The Question of Palestine" adopted eight resolutions (ES-7/2 through ES-7/9) calling for the unconditional and total withdrawal of Israel from territories occupied since 1967.

quote:

Palestine (1997) – US veto – 10th Emergency Special Session
Invoked by General Assembly request of Qatar (A/ES/10/1).

Churchill is such a funny character.

Starting around the Second Boer War he just keeps intermittently popping up like some kind of side character for the British Empire, always proposing the worst loving ideas you've ever heard, usually told to gently caress off even by other Tories because of how obviously insane the ideas are and the few times he's listened to always end in ruinous disaster that he somehow recovers from.
