The Three Bulls and the Lion

Once upon a time, there were three bulls who lived together in a lush meadow. They were close friends and would always graze together, providing each other with companionship and protection. One bull was white, another was black, and the third was red.

The White Bull was wise and cautious. The Black Bull was strong and brave. The Red Bull was vibrant and spirited.

Nearby, there lived a lion who was too old to hunt for his own food easily. Seeing the bulls together, he knew he couldn't attack them because their unity made them strong. However, the lion devised a cunning plan to break their solidarity.

The lion approached the Red Bull first, whispering sweet words of friendship and deceit. He told the Red Bull that the Black Bull had insulted him behind his back. Feeling betrayed, the Red Bull distanced himself from the Black Bull. The lion then went to the Black Bull, telling him that the White Bull had been saying bad things about him. Again, this caused the Black Bull to separate from the White Bull.

With the bulls no longer together, the lion could now attack them one by one. He first ambushed the Red Bull, killing him easily since he was alone. Then, he went after the Black Bull, who, without his friends, was also defeated. As the lion prepared to attack the White Bull, the wise bull realized the folly of division.

Before the lion could strike, the White Bull spoke, "I was devoured the day the black bull was devoured." He knew that his fate was sealed the moment their unity was broken. Despite his wisdom, he was now vulnerable and met the same fate as his friends.

Moral of the Story:

The tale teaches the importance of unity and the dangers of division through deceit. The White Bull's statement underscores that the loss of one affects all, highlighting the collective strength in unity and the collective vulnerability in isolation. It serves as a cautionary narrative about how enemies can exploit discord among friends or allies, emphasizing that there is strength in unity but vulnerability in division.

Just terrible 💔 . 25 innocent people are murdered. Just because a certain application determined that it was necessary. I'm tired of tweeting about it many, many times. The feelings of revenge that brought about the Gaza holocaust and the intentional genocide and ethnic cleansing and the desire to hurt and destroy as much as possible originate in Zionism - meaning Jewish supremacy = inherent racism. The fascist nationalism, the racism inherent in too many makes me sick to my soul. Even according to the ancient laws of Solon, there is a supreme moral obligation to bring corpses to their graves. This is a horrific and very difficult spectacle that does not contribute to the image of the country.

Bodies in the streets without burial A horrific massacre committed by the occupation forces in the Beit Hanoun estate, where the Kahlout family was wiped out.

25 martyrs, including the father, sons, their wives, and grandchildren, in a crime that erases a family from the civil registry.

11_12_2024 Today is the anniversary of my beloved father's martyrdom a year ago. What a painful memory, my father?! It passes through my heart with great heaviness, for the heart is exhausted with sorrow One of the greatest tragedies of this bloody war is that we are now marking the anniversary of the loss of our families and loved ones, while we are still in the midst of this holocaust! A year since your loss, my beloved father; a year in which the killing and slaughter of Gaza has not stopped, from vein to vein; north and south, all of it is being exterminated in all ways and forms! This year is like the situation of thousands of lost people, We did not hold a funeral, and the occupation did not give us time to build a grave for our loved ones. Rather, it did not even give us a chance to grieve for those we lost!

Our loss has not stopped; it is renewed every day in the life of this war. A sadness that multiplies, the mountains are afraid to contain it, while we hold it in our chests like burning coals and continue to carry the trust to be the voice of truth, no matter how brutal and barbaric the occupier is.

A year, my father, and the fire of longing in my heart for your radiant face and the smile of contentment that appears on your face. Peace be upon you, my father. May God bless your soul and make Paradise your abode.

If you had the unilateral power to enact such an action against Israel, here's how it might theoretically unfold, along with the significant implications:

Scenario:

Military Operation:

Objective: Arrest the entire government of Israel on charges of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.

Execution: Launch a military operation to detain every member of the Israeli government, secure key governmental locations, and ensure their safe transfer.

Transfer to The Hague:

Transport: Securely transport detained officials to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.

Legal Basis: Ideally, this would be based on the ICC's jurisdiction or a UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution authorizing such action.

Legal, Political, and Practical Implications: Sovereignty and International Law:

Violation: This action would be a clear violation of Israel's sovereignty, contravening international law, specifically Article 2(4) of the UN Charter which prohibits the threat or use of force against another state's territorial integrity or political independence. UN Security Council Involvement:

Resolution: It would require a UNSC resolution, which seems highly improbable given the veto power of the United States, a strong ally of Israel.

ICC's Role and Limitations:

Jurisdiction: Israel is not a member of the ICC, which significantly complicates legal action unless the UNSC refers the situation, or the State of Palestine, which is an ICC member, successfully brings a case. The ICC relies on member states for enforcement, not having its own enforcement capabilities.

Diplomatic and Geopolitical Consequences:

Global Reaction: This would likely lead to widespread international condemnation or support, depending on the perspective, potentially destabilizing regional and global relations.

Reprisal: Israel's allies, particularly the US, could respond with military or economic actions; other nations might react unpredictably.

Practical Challenges:

Military Feasibility: The logistical and military challenges of such an operation would be immense, including the risk of encountering resistance from Israeli forces.

Humanitarian Impact: The immediate aftermath could lead to chaos within Israel, potentially endangering civilians and destabilizing the region further.

Legal Process at The Hague:

Trial Legitimacy: Ensuring that any trial at the ICC would be seen as legitimate and fair would be challenging, especially given the contentious nature of the conflict and the political backdrop.

Precedent and Future Implications:

Setting a Precedent: Such an action could set a precedent for similar interventions elsewhere, potentially undermining international law's respect for sovereignty.

Real-World Analogies:

Post-WWII Trials: The closest historical parallels would be the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals, which were under a very different context with the Axis powers defeated and occupied.

Ad Hoc Tribunals: The creation of tribunals for Yugoslavia and Rwanda was backed by UNSC resolutions under specific circumstances post-conflict.

Conclusion: While the desire for accountability is understandable, the reality of executing such an operation against Israel is practically, legally, and politically unfeasible without broad international consensus, which is unlikely given current alliances and geopolitical dynamics. The more viable route for addressing these allegations continues to be through diplomatic pressure, international legal forums like the ICC (within its jurisdictional limits), and advocating for accountability through international law and human rights mechanisms.

These atrocities are so abhorrent that even Lucifer himself would blanch and recoil in disgust. https://x.com/R34lB0rg/status/1866584502082081103/photo/1

My account is facing an organized campaign of deliberate reports, and I have received a fifth warning without justification. This comes amidst escalating incitement against journalists and targeting of Palestinian content, as well as attempts to silence the free voice exposing crimes and violations. I call on X management to review the reports fairly.
