  1. The U.S./Israeli hostage rescue operation was a massive violation of the Law of War, especially as it pertains to the issue of proportionality. There is no legal jurisdiction that would certify a claim that rescuing four hostages is worth 200-plus civilians. Even the Israeli Supreme Court agrees this outcome is a gross violation of the principle of proportionality—as it set out in a 2004 decision. The question now is whether the ICC will have the moral integrity to set forth an additional indictment against Israel, and an indictment against the U.S. Don’t hold your breath.

  2. Bombing hospitals, Bombing refugee camps, WCK workers, Killing journalists, Mass graves, Tent massacre, School massacre! How long has the US been “assessing” these with no answer? Eight months of endless atrocities is not an “accident,” it’s genocide.

  3. The US was involved in an operation that killed 200 civilians including an American to save 4 people all of whom could have been released with a ceasefire or by swapping prisoners

  4. Israel, with U.S. assistance, launched a so-called “hostage rescue” mission in Gaza. Four Israeli hostages were rescued. Three others, including an American citizen, were killed. Along with more than 200 Palestinian civilians. The IDF force took casualties, with at least one senior commander being killed. In any normal society, this operation would be classified as a failure, and investigations launched. In Zionist Israel, they are celebrating. A question for Biden: what role did the U.S. military/intelligence community play in facilitating the murder of an American citizen at the hands of the IDF. And is it acceptable practice for the U.S. to support military operations that kill hundreds of civilians to recover hostages whose release could have been secured simply by implementing a viable ceasefire?
