          Granted, the fact that Gaza is small is advantageous, but doesn't it seem like the IDF is making rapid, rapid progress? After a couple of weeks "softening things up," they seem to be getting down to serious business.

              Ms. Andrews explains.

              I was just notified by my assistant that a “group from Ohio” called my office threatening that I was posting “antisemitic” statements on social media.

              I wondered how long it would take.

              BTW. It is insanity to imply that someone who has devoted much of their life to #humanrights is prejudiced against anyone for their race, gender, religion, or nationality.

              Criticizing the State of Israel for violating international law and committing decades of human rights atrocities is not #antisemitic.

              Her profile says that she's an "Attorney. Master of Laws in International Human Rights. Northwestern Pritzker School of Law. "

                        Jon (or anyone), in terms of the U.N., what or who are "protected persons" under their Articles?

                          Individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory to the territory of the Occupying Power or to that of any other country, occupied or not, are prohibited,

                          Is Israel doing that?

                          (BTW - a lot of silence on what's happening in Pakistan, no?)

                          Occupying Power may undertake total or partial evacuation of a given area if the security of the population or imperative military reasons so demand.

                          Israel IS doing that. Actually, no. The evacuation is being PREVENTED by Hamas - civilians being shot as they try to evacuate.

                          The Occupying Power undertaking such transfers or evacuations shall ensure, to the greatest practicable extent, that proper accommodation is provided to receive the protected persons, that the removals are effected in satisfactory conditions of hygiene,

                          Hard to do when the infrastructure, despite billions of dollars poured in are diverted to military resources.

                          The Occupying Power shall not detain protected persons in an area particularly exposed to the dangers of war unless the security of the population or imperative military reasons so demand.

                          Israel is not doing that, is it?

                              They've had a very long time to plan for this , and I'd be shocked if they had not done so.

                                Ahhh, the settlements again. I’m not a lawyer, but I do question the description of occupation when there was no forced transfer by the Israeli government or deportations excepting during the actual war.

                                    @jon-nyc I would think there are records of such communications.

                                    If so...that's bad, very bad.

                                      Nobody ever said the Israeli intelligence services were any good.

                                      Education is extremely important.

                                          Interesting article about the tunnels.

                                          Red are identified tunnels. Blue are destroyed tunnels. (Much easier to see the drawing if you click and then expand)
