Gazans have no means to rescue bodies from under the rubble and victims are left to die. “Armed, financed and backed by the imperial West, Israel’s domestically very popular genocide goes on undeterred while the moral world looks on, helplessly.” — Maung Zarni

A man set himself on fire outside the Israeli embassy in Washington on 26 Feb 2024 in protest of the genocide in Gaza. He said he is “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force” and that he “will no longer be complicit in genocide.” After igniting he repeatedly yelled “Free Palestine.” UPDATE: The protester has died. His name was Aaron Bushnell. Caitlin Johnstone

Thank you for this heart-rending but legally valuable source of visual evidence of War Crimes, Crimes against Humanity and Genocide in Gaza by the IDF, Mr Netanyahu and associated instigators of these crimes. They should be tried by an International War Crimes Tribunal with power to arrest and sentence them to the Death Penalty.
It might induce them to stop the wanton killing and destruction if the Penalty involved the same fate they have visited on the Palestinians, particularly on Gazans since 2005. That has seen gradual starvation and death not only by bombing and shelling but by restrictions on food, water, energy and medical aid not-withstanding occasional injury from aggrieved snipers. It need not stoop to the terror from arial bombardment, falling concrete, destroyed sewerage works, dysentery and disease. But it might shake the conscience? And it would certainly be a move toward justice.
Thank you, Sir.
