Wer Israel in seiner aktuellen Verfasstheit kritisiert, ist kein "Israel-Feind" oder Antisemit, sondern benennt die institutionelle Verantwortung für Besatzung, Landnahme, juristische Ungleichbehandlung. Mehr über Diffamierungsstrategien bei @Etos_media

well it's not as if there hadn't been exchanges between CLS and "German LPE" (even if limited) duncankennedy.net/wp-content…

I condemn the massive wave of strikes by #Israel across #Lebanon today, with reports of hundreds killed and injured, including civilians. This puts enormous pressure on a fragile ceasefire in the region, which is so desperately needed.

Incendiary rhetoric in the Middle East war, including threats to annihilate a whole civilisation and target civilian infrastructure, is sickening. The spread of fear and terror must stop. Urgent de-escalation is needed to protect lives.

Let's truly hope that US (and Iranian) military commanders are more sane that their political leaders and will defy any orders to breach international law.
In case sanity does not prevail, maybe self-interest will? A quick reminder to to all serving members of the military: 'Just following orders' is no defence to war crimes.
If you commit, or order grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, you will be held individually responsible, and every state in the world will have an obligation to prosecute you, or extradite you to face justice.
Donald Trump warns now that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again."
His verbal attacks against Iranian people are escalating in intensity and violence. We know that they are not just just rhetorical. They lead to targeted, indiscriminate or disproportionate attacks against civilians and civilians infrastructures on the ground.
How can people protect themselves against something which is meant to be existential? It is simply terrifying.
Using such a brutal language is unconscionable. I thought that with the US President not being "worried about war crimes," we had hit rock bottom: the proclamation of moral bankruptcy as the new standard.
And so I ask again:
Where will it end?
Who/what will stop this escalation which has only victims and losers, in the first place the people of Iran, Lebanon, Israel and the Gulf States?

"Eine ganze Zivilisation wird heute Nacht untergehen."
Dies sind angekündigte Kriegsverbrechen & Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit.
Die Aussage allein verletzt die Genfer Konventionen
Werden @bundeskanzler @die_regierung dies verurteilen?

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted.
To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

All States must act now to stop this.
Soldiers must refuse unlawful orders.
Members of Congress must call for impeachment and removal.
Every American who loves their country must speak out.
Enough is enough.

And of course, this is clearly a threat to commit crimes against humanity and war crimes. The US chain of command must refuse illegal orders and third state have clear legal duties of non-assistance. They must demand an end to the war and a return to international law.

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

10/ And the most fundamental thing: end this illegal war. The fallout already in the pipeline must be addressed urgently. Governments must use every lever available — not let the shocks ripple through our economies and rip apart our societies.

On behalf of the Christians of the #MiddleEast, and of all women and men of good will, I appeal to those responsible for this conflict: cease fire! May paths of dialogue be reopened! Violence can never lead to the justice, stability and peace for which the peoples are waiting.

DAVO-CAF, KriSol, and the Association of Palestinian and Jewish Academics express concern about recent developments at @thehertieschool following a student resolution on #BDS to divest from organisations linked to human rights violations in Palestine.

Israel continues to disregard international laws protecting medical personnel in war. The killing of 12 medics in Burj Qalaouiyah highlights this violation. As the Health Committee in the Lebanese Parliament, we demand an investigation.

The endless procession of blog posts arguing that international law must adapt to the US's desire to launch wars of aggression is very depressing.

Ok, lots of people in replies seem to think that their range of action is limited to protesting or voting. That by itself is upsetting. Not that there is anything wrong with either protesting or voting, both are good, but organising for counter-power means going WAY further. 🤦♀️
