Israeli Genocide Continues With Another Gaza Massacre

112 Palestinians killed and 760 injured while surrounding an aide lorry in Gaza City this morning and immediately the Hamas and Israeli propaganda machines swung into effect, Hamas saying that they had been shot by the Israeli Defence Force while the Israeli's claimed the drivers of aid trucks were to blame as a truck ploughed into them as they surrounded the aid trucks and looted them.
Then the Gaza Health Ministry reported receiving bodies and severely wounded people with multiple gun shot wounds at their medical facilities, a claim backed up by the head of the hospital's ambulance service who said that they had used carts when they had no ambulances to spare to transport the tens of people to hospitals.
Eye witnesses spoke of the IDF opening fire on the crowd with machine guns from a checkpoint 70m away and it was then that the lorries began to move which led the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, head of the Palestinian Authority to say that there had been 'an ugly massacre conducted by the Israeli occupation army' and the UN aid chief, Martin Griffiths, saying he was appalled'.
Joe Biden said reports of Israeli firing on unarmed Palestinians would complicate any ceasefire deal which he had hoped could be in place by Monday meanwhile during a congressional hearing, US defence secretary Lloyd Austin was asked how many Palestinian women and children had been killed by Israel since 7 October to which he replied: 'Over 25,000' and to the next question of how many precision guided munitions had been provided to Israel since the start of its war in Gaza, said 'Approximately 21,000'.
The White House has described the reports of 112 people killed in Gaza while waiting to receive humanitarian aid as a 'serious incident' and that they mourn the loss of innocent life and recognise the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, where innocent Palestinians are just trying to feed their families which flies in the face of providing them with 21,000 munitions because what did they think they was going to do with them?
The International Court of Justice have already said what Israel is doing in Palestine fulfills the criteria for a genocide, i would argue that what they have been doing to them for the past 60 years fulfills it also but my question would be what are you going to do about it because from where i am sitting Israel is just carrying on their murderous genocide anyway.
The ICJ must now refer Israel to the United Nations Security Council and pass a resolution to take action including economic and trade sanctions, arms embargoes, travel bans and Benjamin Netanyahu and his abhorrent Government can have no place to hide and avoid arrest for war crimes.
