It is not a war. It is a Genocide. The media has been complicit in the dehumanization of the Palestinians who are effectively lab rats for weapons testing by the occupation army who snipes children in their heads. This has been verified and have over 65 international doctors who have said the same thing.

here’s a short list of all the organizations that have found the use of the term consistent to what’s going on in Gaza to be indeed genocide. In a regular war, you don’t target those who can re build societies or raze cemeteries because those are cultural markers. ISREAL wants to erase Gaza.

Amnesty International: Amnesty has accused Israel of committing acts prohibited under the Genocide Convention, such as killings, causing serious harm, and creating conditions aimed at destroying the Palestinian population in Gaza. They cite extensive documentation, including satellite imagery, interviews, and reports on the humanitarian crisis oai_citation:8,More than 250 humanitarian and human rights organisations call to stop arms transfers to Israel, Palestinian armed groups](https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/01/more-than-250-humanitarian-and-human-rights-organisations-call-to-stop-arms-transfers-to-israel-palestinian-armed-groups/) oai_citation:7,Top Human Rights Organization Declares Israel Committing 'Genocide' in Gaza: 'Specific Intent to Destroy Palestinians' [oai_citation:6,Amnesty International accuses Israel of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza - JURIST - News.

UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights: This office has warned of a "plausible risk of genocide" and emphasized the need for international action to prevent further atrocities in Gaza oai_citation:5,UN Special Rapporteur report on Gaza provides crucial evidence that must spur international action to prevent genocide - Amnesty International.

International Court of Justice (ICJ): The ICJ has issued warnings about the risk of genocide and urged Israel to take measures to protect civilians and ensure humanitarian aid delivery oai_citation:4,Joint Statement: Ceasefire in Gaza, Lebanon and Israel | NRC](https://www.nrc.no/news/2024/october/Joint-Statement-Ceasefire/) [oai_citation:3,UN Special Rapporteur report on Gaza provides crucial evidence that must spur international action to prevent genocide - Amnesty International.

Palestinian and international human rights organizations: Numerous NGOs have highlighted systematic violations of international law in Gaza, including the killing of civilians, destruction of infrastructure, and humanitarian blockades oai_citation:2,More than 250 humanitarian and human rights organisations call to stop arms transfers to Israel, Palestinian armed groups](https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/01/more-than-250-humanitarian-and-human-rights-organisations-call-to-stop-arms-transfers-to-israel-palestinian-armed-groups/) [oai_citation:1,Amnesty International accuses Israel of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza - JURIST - News.

These declarations are supported by extensive evidence of targeted attacks, dehumanizing rhetoric, and conditions that meet the criteria for genocide, as outlined by these bodies and experts. However, these claims are disputed by Israeli authorities, who argue that their military actions target Hamas, not civilians.

At least 16 cemeteries in Gaza have been destroyed or desecrated by Israeli forces during the ongoing conflict. Reports indicate that tombstones have been torn down and bodies unearthed, with some cemeteries repurposed as military outposts. This destruction is viewed as a violation of international law and cultural norms, with some experts categorizing it as an aspect of cultural genocide. The deliberate targeting of burial grounds is seen as an effort to erase cultural and historical identities, which aligns with broader genocidal policies as defined by international frameworks on human rights and cultural preservation oai_citation:3,In Numbers: Death and destruction in Gaza after 365 days of genocide](https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2024/10/07/734758/Gaza-year-of-devastation-How-Israeli-genocide-claims-lives-decimates-) oai_citation:2,1,000 Mosques Destroyed, Cemeteries Desecrated by Israeli Forces in Gaza: Palestinian Ministry - World news - Tasnim News Agency [oai_citation:1,The number of mosques destroyed in Israel's attacks on Gaza increased to 814 mosques - SAFIR TV.

Posted in: Doctor arrested for kissing teenage girl during medical examination See in context

I love this girls bravery as she probably didn’t understand what would soon be coming at her after she marched herself to the police box to report after being abused by a man in power who’s probably done it to countless other young women which will come out after this story goes more public.

But Japans rape laws are a joke. If a women is raped by her dad for years and years apparently that’s ok so. There’s a hella long way to go.

I hope she stays strong and ignores the haters that tell her she’s lying and doing it for attention. LOL.

Posted in: University student arrested for posting naked pictures of 13-year-old girl See in context

If anyone is to suggest that a 13 year old GIRL who has barely been living in her grown up body (assuming she has breasts ) is responsible for being manipulated by a 20 year old MAN, let me set the record straight. Victims if rape/sexual assault / porn are VICTIMS especially at the age of 13. There is a reason that the law has decided that someone who is 13 (!!!!!) cannot give CONSENT to have photos of their naked body taken. I don't give a crap what site she was on "selling herself". She probably has some serious familial issues that drive her to the point of putting herself out there. Just like people who are so drunk they also cannot CONSENT to sex. And you know if you have sex with someone who isn't coherent enough to give you an very happy response then DONT do it. This man is a POS.

Or how about we teach men it's not ok to grope or grab or sexually harass women? What an idea!
