Israel’s decision to deprive Palestinian civilians living in Gaza of access to basic needs violates international law, former Human Rights Watch chief Kenneth Roth said.
“In the realm of humanitarian necessities, the Israeli government has imposed a siege on all of Gaza,” Roth said in an interview with Al Jazeera.
Roth, who now teaches at Princeton University, added that the atrocities committed by the Hamas armed group against Israeli civilians do not justify the “revenge” and “collective punishment” against Palestinian civilians.
“A basic premise of international humanitarian law is that war crimes by one side never justify war crimes by the other. There’s an independent obligation by both sides to respect the laws of war.
“It increasingly does look like the Israel military is proceeding without adequate care to spare civilians. And that kind of indiscriminate and disproportionate attack … is in itself a war crime.”

Do you happen to have any source for these reports?
There is no source because they made it up. The closest thing I could find is this https://news.yahoo.com/wagner-mercenaries-involved-training-hamas-145700770.html Which states wagner group may have trained Hamas fighters according to this report https://sprotyv.mod.gov.ua/instruktory-pvk-vagner-gotuvaly-hamas-do-ataky-na-izrayil/
Uhm…
leave it to Charlie Hebdo to place themselves firmly in the “dumb take” camp
Most Western countries have to be seen as pro-Israel no matter what to deter accusations of anti-semitism or pro-nazism. Charlie Hebdo used to be scathing satire and now is just the magazine for Islamophobic European neolibs or conservatives. Its bush league satire and really low effort and blatant racism to troll Muslims.
Yeah, what could those out of touch edgelords possibly know about terrorism?
the fact that they were victims of terrorism as a publication does not suddenly exempt them from having dumb takes, and bluntly their “satire” is often far closer to actual islamophobia than humor.
Yeah all those kids in Gaza sure do deserve to die of dehydration.
Given the white coat, that’s pretty accurate to what Palestinian doctors would be experiencing…
