deanhenders, (edited ) in Malaysia scraps mandatory death penalty for crimes such as drug trafficking, terrorism

I think that such changes are for good. The death penalty is for sure too much for such crimes as drug trafficking. Another punishment should be chosen.
I understand that there are other, more serious crimes which can deserve such a maximum level of punishment, but I don't fully support it. It's a very complicated topic, and I think I need to know more information and real-life cases to make some conclusions. And I have to write one paper about that issue, so I'll have a chance to read a lot. I've already found some useful resources and managed to read more of those essay samples, which helped me to understand everything better. Such samples also helped me with some ideas, so I hope to be able to write something of high quality.

"Vows to press on," as if it's some act of heroism.

So once again, tell me how Israel is the victim here?

Certainly by this point Israel has met the qualifications to be declared a rogue state, and with all that that entails.

absolutely, it is long past time that Israel should be facing severe sanctions and declared a pariah by the international community, it's been over 8 months of nearly non-stop maniacal genocide, it has to end

cooljacob204,

But Qatari and Egyptian mediators have not received formal replies from Hamas or Israel

So they didn't really.

Hamas conveyed its official reply to the proposal to mediators on Tuesday. Hamas spokesman Jihad Taha told the Lebanese news outlet ElNashra that the “amendments” requested by the group aim to guarantee a permanent cease-fire and complete Israeli troop withdrawal from Gaza.

The proposal announced by U.S. President Joe Biden includes those provisions, but Hamas has expressed wariness about whether Israel will implement the terms. While the U.S. says Israel has accepted the proposal, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has given conflicting statements, saying Israel is still intent on its goal of destroying Hamas.

Blinken, on his eighth visit to the region since the start of the war, said the deal on the table was “virtually identical” to one Hamas put forth on May 6. The U.N. Security Council voted overwhelmingly in favor of the plan on Monday.

“At some point in a negotiation, and this has gone back and forth for a long time, you get to a point where if one side continues to change its demands, including making demands and insisting on changes for things that it already accepted, you have to question whether they’re proceeding in good faith or not,” he said.

From here.

It sure looks like Hamas doesn't really want a ceasefire, but wants to look like it wants one.

This was predicated at the start of 2024. Food shortages have been around since then at least

@applepie definitely, the attacks on aid trucks makes it obvious.

It's bern horrible seeing months of warnings about this and now it's sounding like a full blown famine.

So sad. It’s getting harder and harder for genocide deniers to keep their arguments going when Israel’s fanatical military keeps giving away the game.

livus, in Michael Mosley: TV presenter found dead on Greek island, wife confirms
livus avatar

The body was discovered on rocky terrain close to a fence about 50 metres from a small resort which is accessible only by boat or by foot, on the opposite side of the bay where he had left his wife and friends earlier in the day. It is understood that the baseball cap he was wearing, and an umbrella he had been carrying to protect himself from the sun were found with him.

“It is clear from his watch and clothes that it is Dr Mosley,” a police spokesperson, Konstantina Dimoglou, said. It was unclear how long he had been dead. “We don’t know that yet but what we do know is that he had walked a very long way, he was very close to his destination.”

A news camera crew said they had spotted the body lying on rocky terrain from a boat in the bay of Ayia Marina, having zoomed in on an image they had captured.

“We located him [from a boat] when we went into the bay of Ayia Marina,” said the ERT journalist Aristides Miaoulis, who described how when the team’s camera operator looked back at his footage he noticed “something strange”.

“Looking back at the material he had got, he saw something strange near a fence, about 50 metres from the sea, and then we could see, once we zoomed in, that it was this man because his watch was glinting [in the sun].”

The island’s mayor, who was with the media team, said previously 200 people had searched the site and, yet, he had not been found. The Hellenic coastguard was immediately called to the area, and it was taped off.

200 people died in this raid and 400 were injured. The hostages could have bern home sooner with a cease fire agreement.

metaStatic,

well yeah but that would interrupt the genocide

TheDankHold,

It’s up to about 1000 total casualties identified now so it’s even worse.

That's awful.

Sumpfkraut,

Also they disguised themselves as humanitarian aid. That's a legit war crime. It is a "trap" specifically aimed at abusing the respect the other side has for international law. Keep in mind that this is was the official plan of the Israeli military - to commit a war crime because they know that Hamas would not attack humanitarian aid.

livus, in ‘I’m frightened’: the asylum seekers rounded up to be sent to Rwanda
livus avatar

Although the Home Office refuses to confirm numbers for “operational reasons”, it is thought more than 100 asylum seekers from a variety of conflict zones including Sudan, Eritrea and Afghanistan were rounded up, bundled into immigration enforcement vans and detained before the prime minister, Rishi Sunak, announced that an election was being called for 4 July.

On Sunday dozens of campaigners from a coalition called Action Against Detention and Deportation, protested outside two detention centres where asylum seekers are still being detained by authorities intent on sending them to Rwanda – Brook House near Gatwick airport and Heathrow, close to the airport of the same name.

Since then confusion and chaos has descended – with those detained unsure about what happens next. Sunak has said publicly there will be no flights before the election, but in some of the Rwanda bail hearings Home Office officials have reportedly said that a flight is due to take off at the end of June, meaning the detentions are justified.

One judge described the detentions as “speculative”. The Home Office has declined to comment on these reports but government sources say the plan is still “live and those who arrived in the UK between 1 January 2022 and 29 June 2023, and who received a notice of intent informing them that their asylum claim might be inadmissible, were still under consideration for removal.

Labour has said that if it is elected, it will scrap the Rwanda scheme. But the current uncertainty has given little comfort to the asylum seekers who say they are still fearful about being forcibly sent to the African country either before or after the election.
