Changing Perspectives

Posted on 22/05/2025 by Daniel

Is the world really changing?

Do we now believe and accept that all war no matter how carried on, is not mass murder but legal genocide? So the wars of Turkey on the Kurds, Russia on the Ukrainians, in Congo and Sudan are all genocides? Are we now in a space where any war carried out against an enriched enemy hiding among the not combatant population, breaks international law if one of those people is killed by soldiers? Is proportionality even a thing? It is now nation state ethics that it is wrong to pursue armed conflict until all your own people are freed or discovered dead? Is it now legal for a third country to supply money and arms to the entrenched armed group without any condemnation or direct armed action?

What is demanded of Israel must be demanded of all countries – if it isn’t it is just Jew hatred.
