This news were right one after another in main, Israel literally announce it’s a genocide
So uhhh why did they ban arms exports?

Didn’t the literal exact opposite of this happen?
Top tier gaslighting by UK lawyers. Just open the Hasbara handbook and start lying. It’s worked for Israel so why not for them!

Oh, what a relief. I thought, from all the video evidence of children being murdered, that genocide was assured. Ffs.

No evidence of conflict of interest, said firm hired by lawyers contracted by the government.
