Indeed good luck to Israel. These fish aren't in a barrel.
Do you really want us to be dragged into this just so Bibi can avoid his minimum 10 years locked up in the same prisons as Hamas?

By us I’m assuming you mean Canadians? What have we been dragged into so far beyond agreeing to accept refugee’s from Gaza that Hamas clears to leave, & protests, and shootings of Jewish schools and synagogues in Canada….we are spectators & our politicians are just posers on this issue.
It always was more about the land grab and extermination of Palestinians in Gaza (and the West Bank) than hostages the Government STILL doesn't give a shit about except as talking points.
GENEVA (23 February 2024) – Any transfer of weapons or ammunition to Israel that would be used in Gaza is likely to violate international humanitarian law and must cease immediately, UN experts* warned today.
“All States must ‘ensure respect’ for international humanitarian law by parties to an armed conflict, as required by 1949 Geneva Conventions and customary international law,” the experts said. “States must accordingly refrain from transferring any weapon or ammunition – or parts for them – if it is expected, given the facts or past patterns of behaviour, that they would be used to violate international law.”
“Such transfers are prohibited even if the exporting State does not intend the arms to be used in violation of the law – or does not know with certainty that they would be used in such a way – as long as there is a clear risk,” they said.
The experts welcomed the decision of a Dutch appeals court on 12 February 2024 ordering the Netherlands to halt the export of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel. The court found that there was a “clear risk” that the parts would be used to commit or facilitate serious violations of international humanitarian law, as “there are many indications that Israel has violated the humanitarian law of war in a not insignificant number of cases”.
The Dutch court pointed to the extensive civilian casualties, including thousands of children; the destruction of 60% of civilian homes and extensive damage to hospitals, water and food supplies, schools and religious buildings; widespread severe hunger; and the displacement of 85% of Palestinians in Gaza. It also highlighted evidence of the prolific use of imprecise “dumb bombs”; deliberate, disproportionate and indiscriminate attacks; failures to warn civilians of attacks; and incriminating statements by Israeli commanders and soldiers.
Over 29,313 Palestinians have been killed and 69,333 injured in Gaza since 7 October 2023, the majority being women and children. “Israel has repeatedly failed to comply with international law,” the experts said.
The experts noted that States Parties to the Arms Trade Treaty have additional treaty obligations to deny arms exports if they “know” that the arms “would” be used to commit international crimes; or if there is an “overriding risk” that the arms transferred “could” be used to commit serious violations of international humanitarian law. European Union member states are further bound by EU arms export control law.
“The need for an arms embargo on Israel is heightened by the International Court of Justice’s ruling on 26 January 2024 that there is a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza and the continuing serious harm to civilians since then”, the experts said. The Genocide Convention of 1948 requires States parties to employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent genocide in another state as far as possible. “This necessitates halting arms exports in the present circumstances”, the experts said.
The experts welcomed the suspension of arms transfers to Israel by Belgium, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and the Japanese company Itochu Corporation. The European Union also recently discouraged arms exports to Israel.
The experts urged other States to immediately halt arms transfers to Israel, including export licenses and military aid. The United States and Germany are by far the largest arms exporters and shipments have increased since 7 October 2023. Other military exporters include France, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.
The experts noted that arms transfers to Hamas and other armed groups are also prohibited by international law, given their grave violations of international humanitarian law on 7 October 2023, including hostage-taking and subsequent indiscriminate rocket fire.
The duty to “ensure respect” for humanitarian law applies “in all circumstances”, including when Israel claims it is countering terrorism. Military intelligence must also not be shared where there is a clear risk that it would be used to violate international humanitarian law.
“State officials involved in arms exports may be individually criminally liable for aiding and abetting any war crimes, crimes against humanity or acts of genocide,” the experts said. “All States under the principle of universal jurisdiction, and the International Criminal Court, may be able to investigate and prosecute such crimes.”
The experts stressed that the duty to “ensure respect” additionally requires all States to do everything reasonably in their power to prevent and stop violations of international humanitarian law by Israel, particularly where a State has influence through its political, military, economic or other relations. Measures could include:
- Diplomatic dialogue and protests;
- Technical assistance to promote compliance and accountability;
- Sanctions on trade, finance, travel, technology or cooperation;
- Referral to the Security Council and the General Assembly;
- Proceedings at the International Court of Justice;
- Support for investigations by the International Criminal Court or other international legal mechanisms;
- National criminal investigations using universal jurisdiction and civil suits; and
- Requesting a meeting of the parties to the Geneva Conventions.
Most of these measures are also relevant to fulfilling the duty to prevent genocide.
Arms companies contributing to the production and transfer of arms to Israel and businesses investing in those companies bear their own responsibility to respect human rights, international humanitarian law and international criminal law. “They have not publicly demonstrated the heightened human rights due diligence required of them and accordingly risk complicity in violations”, the experts said.
“International law does not enforce itself,” the experts said. “All States must not be complicit in international crimes through arms transfers. They must do their part to urgently end the unrelenting humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.”
And that's why the US deployed troops today.

The new deployments come after significant strikes by Israeli forces against targets inside Lebanon that have killed hundreds and as Israel is preparing to conduct further operations.

I don’t pick up on every clue but occasionally…I can connect the dots.Ok. Does this mention anything about weapons, transferred into Gaza, at all (?) or are those humanitarian weapons, ammunition, rockets & missiles or the supplies to build them, etc..? Let’s check…
Nope… I didn’t notice anything myself about any of the weapons transferred into Gaza for Hamas & Friends, or their use on or since Oct 7th, but I could’ve missed that part. Maybe it’s an oversight?
I wonder where the UN will stand on this?
Maybe it’s not an over oversight?

Israel probably doesn't recognize UN since it ignores the ICC. That shit is for the non-humans not Zionists.

Who’s “we” above?
Ahhh…ok? What are “White people” doing under the table? I’m assuming (and it’s only an assumption based on your link because who knows?) that it’s a combination of better volumes of arms sales and decreased support of Israel based upon a lack of skin pigmentation?
Is that something that’s a thing? Is that where you’re going?
Anyway, this (below) is interesting. Any idea what this happens to be?
Anyway, Israel's military said it launched airstrikes against Hezbollah sites in Lebanon on Monday, which Lebanese authorities said had killed 492 people (but no mention if they are or aren’t Hezbollah though?) and sent tens of thousands fleeing for safety in the country's deadliest day in decades.
After some of the heaviest cross-border exchanges of fire since hostilities flared in October, Israel warned people in Lebanon to evacuate areas where it said the armed movement was storing weapons. "Israel's war is not with you, it's with Hezbollah. For too long Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.”
After almost a year of war against Hamas in Gaza since Oct 7th on its southern border, Israel is shifting its focus to the northern frontier, where Iran-backed Hezbollah has been firing rockets into Israel since Oct 8th in support of Hamas, also backed by Iran. Then, on the ninth day after Hezbollah started firing rockets & missiles into Israel, Israel entered Gaza on October 27th, “after” declaring war against Hamas.

Israel's military said it launched airstrikes against Hezbollah sites in Lebanon on Monday, which Lebanese authorities said had killed 492 people and sent tens of thousands fleeing for safety in the country's deadliest day in decades.
"Out of an abundance of caution, we are sending a small number of additional U.S. military personnel forward to augment our forces that are already in the region," Air Force Major General Patrick Ryder, a Pentagon spokesperson, told reporters.
Those U.S. capabilities include the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier strike group, fighter aircraft and air defenses.
"We have more capability in the region today than we did on April 14th when Iran conducted its drone and missile attack against Israel," Ryder said.
(Experts question whether Iran would stay on the sidelines if Lebanon's Hezbollah's existence were threatened and say U.S. troops could also find themselves targeted throughout the Middle East, if a regional war breaks out)
"So all of those forces combined provide us with the options to be able to protect our forces should they be attacked."
Ryder referred to Iran's attack by more than 300 missiles and drones, which caused only modest damage inside Israel thanks to air defense interceptions from the United States, Britain and other allies in the region. The April 14 strikes were Iran's first-ever direct attack on Israel.

It wasnt during a protest. It was State sponsored murder. Another one gets it square in the forehead.Killing of Ayşenur Eygi - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/09/11/american-activist-aysenur-eygi-killed-idf-west-bank/
Eygi’s caution did not protect her. She was fatally shot in the head on Friday in the village of Beita, near Nablus, following brief clashes after Friday prayers. The Israel Defense Forces said Tuesday it was “very likely” she had been hit “unintentionally” by one of its soldiers. “The incident took place during a violent riot,” the statement said, and the fire was aimed at “the key instigator.”
But a Washington Post investigation has found that Eygi was shot more than a half-hour after the height of confrontations in Beita, and some 20 minutes after protesters had moved down the main road — more than 200 yards away from Israeli forces. A Palestinian teenager, who witnesses say was standing about 20 yards from Eygi, was wounded by Israeli fire; the IDF would not say if he was a target.
Citing an ongoing investigation, the IDF also declined to answer questions from The Post about why its forces fired toward the demonstrators so long after they had retreated, and from a distance where they posed no apparent threat.
Whats it like to be in the 29% group of Canadians who support this shit?
Why such low support for Israel? Zionists holocaust are scum and nobody holocaust believes them holocaust any longer?

“It is ready to launch from an opening in the roof. Under the attic, on the first floor, a Lebanese family lives, serving as a human shield,” IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said in a press conference Monday.
“This is an immediate and real threat to Israeli civilians, and we have an obligation to remove it,” he added.
Also, the IDF released video footage of an airstrike against a Lebanese home where Hezbollah had stored munitions. The video shows a rocket flying out of the building after the strike and hitting an adjacent house.
