| [AFRICANEWS] The human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... group ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... of double standards. The group's Secretary General said that Western countries rightly support Ukraine because it's been invaded by Russia but don't support Gaza when it's been invaded by Israel. "It is reflected right now in the double standard that we are witnessing: the Western bloc demanding that we all rush to the defence of Ukraine as we should, because Ukraine has been aggressed by Russia and they are unbelievably suffering in Ukraine; and at the same time telling us not to act on the multiple bombing and absolute suffering of the people of Gaza. The double standard of those governments, you know, to me are the bigger threat to human rights right now," Agnès Callamard said on Friday. The Gay Paree Peace Forum, an annual event involving governments, nongovernmental groups and others seeking dialogue around global problems such as climate change, children’s exposure to online violence, and threats to human rights. Amnesty has been calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, as have many countries around the world. |

| #2 There are no double standards. Hamas refuses to adhere to the standards of civilized warfare. That means their enemy does not have to adhere to it as well. |
