How can I make this more clear?
There is no war.
Palestine has no army.
Hamas wants to give back all the hostages.
Israel wants to murder every single Palestinian, half of which are children, almost 2 million ppl.
What's so hard to understand about that?
It's a genocide.
BREAKING: Israel is now bombing a million civilians trapped in Rafah, the last place of refuge in Gaza.
This is the most violent and unprecedented bombardment of Rafah to date.
We’re witnessing a holocaust. Plain and simple.

@aherys Eh, il y a beaucoup à dire et à repenser sur les messages véhiculés par les jeux vidéo. Beaucoup de choses ont changé depuis les débuts de l'industrie et CoD notamment n'a pas été épargné par son lot de problèmes. C'est un sujet compliqué à traiter sur Twitter mais fascinant.
@aherys Ça change que c'est pas parce que c'est virtuel que tout est permis ou même justifié, et que la façon dont le marketing met en valeur le contenu du jeu a un impact. Sur la marque et sur ses consommateurs.
@MatthieuBernh@aherys Oui tu as raison, c'est très aligné avec leur promesse et finalement avec leur Brand maintenant qu'on voit sortir les interviews du CEO, c'était une intention assumée. Je continue de penser que ça les bloquerais pour développer une IP sur le long-terme mais c'est pas le but.
Unbelievable. Stéphane Séjourné, France's new minister of foreign affairs, essentially said that France wouldn't support the ICJ's decision if it rule against Israel because accusing them of genocide is "crossing a moral threshold" and is "exploiting the notion of genocide for political purposes".
Here's the exact quote (translated):
"As for the International Court of Justice, we firmly tell the Israelis that international law applies to everyone, the systematic strikes in Gaza must stop... but words have meaning and accusing the Jewish state of genocide is crossing a moral threshold! We cannot exploit the notion of genocide for political purposes, that is our consistent position."
So first of all it's an egregious lie that it would be their "consistent position" that "we cannot exploit the notion of genocide for political purposes" because less than a year ago the French parliament (including Macron's party) voted to recognize as "genocide" the Holodomor in Ukraine, and the year before that they voted (also including Macron's party) to recognize the so-called "Uyghur genocide"; both clearly done for political purposes (on the Uyghurs only some Western countries - led by the U.S. - have ever called it a "genocide" and a UN Human Rights Office investigation on the ground did not retain this designation)... So when it's directed at geopolitical foes of the West, France happily exploits the notion of genocide for political purposes.
And in this case this isn't even about this, since we're speaking about an official ruling by the International Court of Justice, of which France is a founding member. So if the ICJ ruled in the sense that Israel was indeed committing genocide, by definition it wouldn't 'be an "exploitation of the notion of genocide for political purposes" but a ruling based on international law.
So as I've said since the very beginning, this demonstrates once again that the war in Gaza is essentially the war of the "rules-based order" with all its double standards vs "international law". And sadly now France has made it clear that faced with the choice, they opt to side with the rules-based order against international law 😢
@MrPope I love how they are pushing the political aspect even more, it seems like much less micromanaging temperatures and much more about handling multiple groups and policies, which was the best thing about the first one. I'd bet that was the goal all along
