UN Official, occupier just would say "Doesn't matter"
.
Anyone still believe is all about hostage? Or expansion of settler territory, claimed as "promised land"?

Iran evil axis falling one by one. Houthis next. The world could do with cheaper energy, can't wait for Iran dictator to fall.

Shimon above...read "The plot to attack Iran "
This plot predates Houthis , and the war on Gaza.
US neo cons have their eyes on lots of ME prizes.

As if the psychopath would care who (WHO) gets caught up in his destructive (distractive) rampage to avoid taking responsibility for his previous criminality.

Fight back Houthies!!..

Or, you know, they could stop flinging poo.

The only people I know who use the word "occupier" frequently are radical Islamic jihadists

Do you really encourage terrorist?

All Israel and it's Zionist leaders NEED to do is to End their Occupation of Palestine and allow the Palestinians to live in peace then watch all this fighting Go Away in a matter of weeks.
Occupation, Land Grab, Property Theft, Imprisonment of Children, Starvation of innocent women and children are the WRONG paths towards Peace and Prosperity.

Pity those missiles weren't a few meters closer to the WHO chief!

Terrorists don’t hang out in civilian airports.
Israeli ‘collective punishment’ is a crime and those responsible must be held accountable.

And your sources are Israel IDF? The same army of criminals guided by Netanyahu who does not allow foreign journalists during their war operations? Unless you are an executive of the American weapons manufacturers financing these mass killings
kurisupisu
Israel targets ports, schools, hospitals,power stations and apartment blocks to selectively target terrorists.

"Occupier" is a LEGAL term (of no interest or import to the powerful and the ignorant gaslit masses as the decades-long massacres by the Israeli occupiers have demonstrated). Impunity is not innocence.

It's difficult to bomb Yemen back to the Stone Age because it is already in the Jurassic Period.
kurisupisu
Israel will do its best to bomb one of the poorest countries in the world to an even worse level!

It is about hostages, and about the jihadist terrorists in control of Gaza surrendering.
There has been no expansion of "settler territory". And please say quote where you got your "promised land" from.
Fwiw, I think it is not Israels job to bomb the Houthi rebels; the Sunni-Shia war is something that the islamists should do internally.
Zaphod

.... and that is precisely radical islamist propaganda. I am old enough to remember that the media and academia did not swallow this line "occupier" line. Now it is regularly repeated by the gaslit masses who take their information from the mainstream media. Crazy world.
GuruMick
"Voice of reason " apparently knows Islamic terrorists. "The only people I know ...."
Tell me, what are they really like ?
GuruMick
Zaphod...some of the "Islamic terrorists " controlling Gaza are Marxist resistance fighters.
Bit more nuanced than your comments.
GuruMick
Zaphod ..."Promised Land " quote original source "Book of Genesis " , Abraham reports on this promise by God to give land to Jews.
"Promised land " in common usage even up till today.
Google it.
I,ve regularly seen settlers, illegal and otherwise, call the land they inhabit "a promise from God "

Israel only getting hell.as their promises

I guess is doing a terrible job then: a reminder that nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn5wel11pgdo
What is going on in Gaza is the most documented genocide in history. This terrible conflict would end the first 24 hours the US administration stops shipping lethal weapons to Israel. Over $20 billions (officially) since January 2024. But, as we know, there is too much at stake for the US lobbies in Wall Street
Zaphod
Fos
Repeating the line is not true. A fight against a terrorist regime is not a "genocide". Remind us how many millions the US killed in their ill-advised reaction to 9-11. And while many of us (maybe even including you) condemn that, it is never called a "genocide".
Using that loaded word is 100% islamist propaganda.
The US also funds the military of neighbouring Arab countries to the same degree. And last but not least, Biden opened the money spigot to Hamas, which allowed them to carry out their murderous Oct 7 attack.
Zaphod
GuruMick
Oh, so you are not actually talking about the current war against Hamas, you are denying Israels right to exist? OK, fair enough. If you agree with the Jihadis, there is probably no point in responding.
u_s__reamer
This time (for once) the Israeli bombing of the airport was an authentic precision attack, targeted NOT to hit the WHO official, but just to make him sweat a little, all part of the zionist fun and games, innit?
RichardPearce
There were people who cheered what the Short Austrian was doing because he attacked Russia...and then there's the people NOT blinded by their irrational hatred who saw what he and his regime were.
There were those who saw the White State in South Africa as 'an island of civilization in a sea of savagery'...and then there's the people NOT blinded by their irrational hatred who saw what that regime was.
Fans and supporters of the Scofflaw regime think they are clever and original, and cheer every one of its Crimes Against Humanity...now.
But there are a few differences between then and now.
Then, a name change, or just going quiet, and what you'd done would disappear into obscurity and be really hard for individuals to trace to you, and the courts hadn't established that 'merely cheering genocide' wasn't a Crime.
Neither are true anymore.

What sites were they posting on in 1941? Pretty sure the US government was keeping the soviets in the war with Lend-Lease.
GuruMick
Zaphod...the Israel "right to exist " has origins in the Book of Genesis , where God promised land to Abraham.
So based on a fairy tale, an Israeli state was born and the suffering of the original people of those lands ensured.
Israel is at war with more agencies/resistance than Hamas, BTW.
Israel is at war, in fighting, or politics, or international relations ,countries like Ireland , or anything and everything, with EVERYBODY .....and it uses the "anti semitic " card at every instance.
Pathetic.

Israel is fighting for its existence and future. No doubt about it. Terrorists are all over spread by Iran.
Iran is next.
Israel should be thanked by the western world for cleaning it from terrorists. We can all sit and criticize Israel but if they stop hitting the snake by its head, terror will reach to each and every one of us. Not less.
NB
There is enough room for the two nations between the river and the sea. The ambition for exclusive ownership of the land, for cleansing the other nation from the land and for slaughtering the other nation, is wrong, stupid and disastrous.
RichardPearce
The Israeli regime is fighting AGAINST the future, just as the White State in South Africa was, and Trump will be, again.
But the thing about doing so is how inevitable it is that NOW becomes THEN, and the future becomes now.
PS, the notion that it was American arms loaned to Russia that allowed it to almost singlehandedly defeat the Short Austrian when he had all the industrial might of Europe in his hands is how the US turned itself from the most reluctant to do anything to the one that did the most, but the reality has been on display for a couple years now. Every time the US has tried to reinforce the myth by insisting Russia is about to run out of weapons, ammunition, or manpower while battling against those with a fetish for the symbols of the losing side of WW2 who are being given weapons, ammunition, and some manpower by Europe plus the other 'Allies' that like to claim a starring role in the defeat of the Short Austrian, the Russian advances show how different reality is to their claims.

What? That's their favorite target and has been for 40+ years! Terrorists get onto civilian planes, hijack them and make demands that their "brothers" in prison are released. The solution can be to send in special forces to resolve the situation on a plane with only the passengers at risk. When the entire airport is full of them, long range weapons are a better choice.
The WHO is complicit with the 2020 attack on the entire world. They spent months preventing real science to be used to find solutions. Millions died while they did this in different parts of the world.

russia is not facing an air force over Ukraine. If russia can only advance a few km a day against Ukraine, NATO would be in Moscow in a month in a conventional war.
