Visual Evidence Shows #Israel Using #WhitePhosphorus in #Lebanon

Often deployed by militaries to create fires & smoke screens during combat, white phosphorus is not illegal in itself, but deploying it deliberately against #civilians or in an area populated by civilians violates the international #LawsOfWar. #HumanRights advocates have raised concerns that civilians have been affected by the #IDF’s use of it.

Russia literally keeps inventing new #warcrimes by the day!

After Ukraine establised fire control over the land bridge to #Crimea and destroyed all military fuel trucks, Russia is now enlisting CIVILIAN VOLUNTEERS to run fuel supplies for the military! 😵‍💫

So what is #Ukraine to do? Russia has already banned it's army's fuel suppliers from wearing military uniforms while driving, and now this. Effectively using #civilians as human shields.

Shows what Russia thinks of the narod: Expendable meat

Today in Labor History June 9, 1944: Johanna Kirchner was beheaded by the Nazis in Berlin. She was a socialist and member of the anti-fascist resistance. After Hitler came to power, she went underground and later fled to France. However, in 1942 the collaborationist Vichy regime handed her over to the Gestapo. She was sentenced to death for "Marxist high-treason propaganda." On the day of her execution, she wrote: "Don't cry for me. I believe in a better future for you."

Also on this date in 1944, the Nazis executed 99 civilians in Tulle, Francein retaliation for an attack by the anti-fascist resistance, which had killed 40 Nazi soldiers. Others were sent to Concentration Camps. The next day, they slaughtered over 640 men, women and children in the neighboring town of Oradour-sur-Glane.

"There are countless videos of Russia’s “human safari” in Kherson. Anyone who claims that Russia is exercising restraint and trying to spare Ukrainian civilians is either an idiot or a manipulator. Don’t trust them."

If the neighbours then resist, #firstresponders, medical transport, #civildefence units, hospitals are attacked

🗨️ 👩🏽‍💻 That is just my personal assessment; but for me, there is no such thing as diplomacy with criminals -

One can, of course, argue about the definition of a #crime, but throughout #history, communities have implemented protective measures to safeguard #children, elderly or the sick

Animals do this too, btw

So, I have no interest in #UN resolutions; the UN has failed!

Playing along with its members gives scope for criminal acts against #civilians in upcoming months and years (..)
