Inb4 UNHRC is decried as Hamas by Netanyahu and the other Zionists

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Obviously, much like South Africa, the human rights council is just another legal arm of Hamas. They are an incredibly powerful and well connected organisation with widespread support in major institutions, humanitarian organizations, the UN and grassroots support across the world. How did they achieve this? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ but obviously if we acknowledge that this is an insane conspiracy theory we would have to admit all of crimes that Israel is doing and we can't have that now can we

Everyone who dares criticizing Israel's actions is labelled as Hamas and antisemitic. It is getting ridiculous at this point.

This is a start. Its an admission they're doing something evil.

Aaand? Do they have any power to enforce this decision?

[โ€“] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

No. The only organ that can make "binding" decisions is the security council. Unfortunately all decisions (except for administrative questions) need the approval of china, russia, the UK, France aaand the US. So I doubt that tha the US will ever sanction Israel because it would mean they are admitting to supporting war criminals.

It adds a lot more legitimacy to people protesting the crimes, which is important.

They don't, just like the league of nations could stop Hitler.
