Another video out of Gaza, another reminder of what an insult to the human intellect the genocide and famine libels have been.

"When Walzer took the stage, he affirmed his commitment to the safety of Israel and described his fury at the attacks of October 7th before turning to Israel’s conduct in the war. The recent raids in Gaza, he said, seemed intended to make it “uninhabitable, at least by its present inhabitants.” He added that “Israel had managed the siege in a way that meant, and seemed from far away intended to mean, that there would be no end to the suffering, no sustained relief, until a final, a total, victory, a victory that was never morally possible, probably not strategically possible, and that no one really believed in.” What’s more, “once there was a political way to defeat Hamas and to free the hostages, the war became unjust. The effort to win it, when there was no way to win without destroying Gaza and driving out all or most of its people” was, he said, a “criminal effort.” The hall, by this point, was quiet. Walzer said that he did not trust the international reckoning regarding Israel’s actions that was sure to come. He wanted Israelis to do the reckoning themselves. “Please get it right,” he said. The applause that followed was intense but sad". newyorker.com/culture/person… via @NewYorker

Imagine genuinely having spent decades in international law and been president of the international criminal tribunal for Rwanda and then deciding in your later years, that you hated Israelis so much that you would publish a report under your own name saying “Israel knew people would die when they went to war; that’s genocide.” That’s @NaviPillay1 for you, a racist who destroyed her legacy forever all because of antizionism.
