saved by the red tape...


What I want to know is what is the point of having an international body such as the UN that can't even regulate on its own members (Israel) and what is the point of international laws and treatise if no one (Israel) follows them and you can't use them against anyone (ISRAEL) because they didn't sign the stupid treaty in the first place! For cryin' out loud, there is overwhelming and undeniable evidence of war crimes, through pictures, video recordings, testimonies from people on the ground inside and outside the conflict zone, as well as incriminating statements made by many Israeli officials that were meant to mislead the international community (Livni: "There is no humanitarian crisis in Gaza...").

Nope, all of said evidence is rendered useless in the face of technicalities as frivolous as difficulty in choosing who is responsible and lack of signatures on specific treatise. I though international law applied internationally. A humanitarian crisis transcends laws and red tape, it is a humanistic and moral issue...compassion and empathy for another suffering human being and the need to offer aid... is that something that needs an approval stamp from some governing body? Not surprising since in Israel a Palestinian can hardly visit their neighbor or go to work without being stopped at checkpoints.

Word has it Israel is preparing a legal defense team to fight against the charges being brought against the state of Israel regarding said war crimes. I'd just love to see the kind of crack-pot team they put together... if you need a good lawyer who can make Hitler look like the victim, go to Israel, some of the best liars... I mean lawyers come from there.

*The signs in the picture above read:
Jews<>Israel extreme opposites
The "Israelis" stole the name of Israel
Authentic Jews will never recognize the state of "Israel"
Jews are forbidden to have their own state before coming of the Messiah

I told you there were some sane Jews in Israel, you just need to look hard enough.
