Are you claiming that the expert assessments from Human Rights Watch, and Amnesty International lapsy are wrong in claiming some of Iran's actions are war crimes? E.g. deliberately targeting civilian vessels and their crews around the Strait of Hormuz, and their child soldier enlistment, recruiting child soldiers as young as 12?

https://www.hrw.org/news/2026/03/23/iran-deliberate-attacks-on-civilian-ships-apparent-war-crimes

https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2026/04/iran-recruitment-of-child-soldiers-as-young-as-12-amounts-to-a-war-crime
/

And that's on top on the UN's accusations of crimes against humanity, but you won't hear the antisemites complaining about any of that because they can't blame Israel.

I suppose the best we can hope for from the antisemites is their continuing incessant damnation of Israel and occasional vague mutterings about both sides being murderous (but only when pulled up about being one sided) so as to be able to falsely claim to be balanced.

iran has publicly stated it wants to kill every jew and end israel entirely and has said as much for 40 years

never has anyone mentioned this, nor the fact it has taken over another country (lebanon) to attack israel. nor do they mention its intention to acquire nuclear weapons to destroy israel

the war was started by iranian proxy hamas that dug a giant network of tunnels into israel with the sole intention of murder. again, nothing from the outragees

now, after the bayonneting of babies israel has lost it, everyone is outraged. after 40 years of silence

no surprise. theres a hierarchy of of victims and the 'west', which includes the u.s. uk, and aus/nz is at the bottom. its not geography, its an idea, ie, human rights law freedom tolerance economic and personal liberty, among other things

all of them alien to isaraels neighbours, which is good enough reason for the hard-left loons who drive this poisonous ideology to hate it. try judging its enemies by the same standards and you will notice something that make israel look like heaven on earth by comparison, despite its many faults
