An israeli journalist called Yinon Magal has just posted this video on X with a caption in Hebrew that says
“hello children. Please help our brave soldiers find Beit Hanoun.”
This is Beit Hanoun, the city where I taught English for about three years. What you are seeing in this video is not only the ruins of a city, but the shattered remains of homes beneath which many victims of israel’s terror attacks are still buried.
There are literally hundreds of human beings still trapped under this rubble. Mothers, fathers, and children left buried for years.
World governments not only failed to punish israel for these war crimes and crimes against humanity, they did not even take any steps to intervene and prevent them.
Let us always remember that the Genocide Convention is not only about the Punishment of genocide, but also about the Prevention of the crime itself.
