“At other times, a tank would rapidly move towards them, then drift back, less than a meter away from them. Ahmad realized the soldiers were toying with them.
At one point, soldiers picked Ahmad’s brother, Saeed, and tortured him, breaking his jaw. They kicked him in his genitals like they were ‘hitting a football,’ according to Saeed. They beat him so severely that he blacked out at one point.’”

"This is not the life of any normal human being. There is nothing: no water, no food, no health care, not even a toilet. My children ask me if they could just have potatoes but we have no money now. All we have is canned food distributed [by the United Nations],” she said.
“My children have already had flu, and fevers, and hepatitis. They are weak now, and there aren’t enough antibiotics, so I’m very worried.”

It is established fact that Australian soldiers in Afghanistan committed war crimes. Today, the man whose courageous act of whistleblowing brought these crimes to light has been sentenced to almost 6 years in gaol.
This is a dark day in Australian history. Democracy needs people to stand up when they see wrongdoing being committed by powerful people. We should be thanking and celebrating David McBride, not imprisoning him.

I wish for EU to stop supporting the #genocide committed by #Israel in #Gaza.
I wish that Ursula V.d.L will be prosecuted for usurping power which did not belong to her, standing next to butcher Netanyahu, and supporting his #WarCrimes in our name.
I wish for #BDS action by #EU against the only #apartheid state in existence.
I wish for the 95.5 billion euro of Project Horizon to not fund Israeli Universities while #Educide is done in #Palestine.

Seriously? If they’re held accountable for their #warCrimes israel is going to throw a tantrum at another government? And the US getting involved, possibly threatening the ICC if they do the right thing?
Vladimir Putin: arrest warrant issued over a year ago, still leading war against Ukraine.
Slobodan Milosevic: arrest warrant issued in 1999, lost election in 2000, arrested and handed over in 2001, died in jail in 2006 with the trial still not over.
If the International Criminal Court does charge Israeli or Hamas leaders with #warcrimes, don’t expect swift or certain justice.

International prosecution of Israeli or Hamas leaders wouldn’t bring quick justice − and even bringing them to court will be difficult
Prosecuting leaders indicted for war crimes is difficult. But the trial of Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic in the early 2000s offers a potential playbook.The Conversation
