Kommentar fra Times of Israels juridiske ekspert-skribent. Han slakter statens juridiske rådgivere for å lukke øynene for krigsforbrytelsene mot befolkningen på Gazastripen, til tross for at et samlet fagmiljø i Israel har konkludert med dette. Israel is committing war crimes – and its legal heads remain silent https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-is-committing-war-crimes-and-its-legal-heads-remain-silent/ The silence of Israel’s three senior legal officials charged with ensuring that Israel’s military operations comply with the rules of international law is indefensible. (...) Close to twenty experts in international law and legal theory from law faculties in Israel’s universities sent a letter on Wednesday to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in light of Israel’s plans to expand the fighting in the Gaza Strip, conquer it entirely or in part, and carry out what is described as “encouraging voluntary migration.” The experts’ conclusion is unequivocal: the continuation of the war in the Gaza Strip – and certainly its expansion – has become illegal and may even be considered an “act of aggression” that entails criminal liability for senior Israeli officials. “After nearly two years of fighting, when most of Gaza’s infrastructure has been destroyed, hundreds of thousands of people have been repeatedly displaced from their homes, medical services have collapsed, and tens of thousands are suffering from malnutrition and hunger, the marginal addition to state security that could be gained, if at all, from continuing the fighting – let alone expanding it – is not proportionate,” the legal scholars wrote. “The use of force that exceeds the bounds of proportionality and cannot achieve the aim of self-defense is unlawful, and in certain circumstances even a crime, under the most severe categories of the laws governing the use of force and international criminal law,” they added. This is a harsh legal opinion, certainly not one that will be embraced by the prime minister, the heads of the military, and members of the security cabinet. But the letter’s signatories see it as their duty to state the matter plainly and reflect Israel’s true position under the rules of international law. But the sad fact is that it should not have been law professors who placed this legal opinion on the decision-makers’ desks. That they are compelled to do so is the result of a grave and ongoing failure, in which the three most senior legal officials in public service responsible for this field are conspicuously absent: The Israel Defense Forces’ chief military advocate general, Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, the deputy attorney general for international law, Dr. Gilad Noam, and above them all – the attorney general, Gali Baharav-Miara.

Svære demonstrasjoner mot Netanyahu, utvidelsen av krigen og den humanitære situasjonen på Gazastripen i Israel i kveld. As masses rally for hostages, speakers urge soldiers to refuse to carry out Gaza City takeover https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-august-9-2025/ With tens of thousands protesting, captive’s mom says PM’s ‘hands will be stained by blood’ if hostages killed in operation. Speakers at the anti-government, pro-hostage deal protest in front of the Begin Street entrance to the IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv urge soldiers to refuse to serve in the expanded fighting in Gaza following the cabinet’s decision to take over Gaza City. Along with a separate protest at Hostages Square, tens of thousands of Israelis are reportedly in the streets of Tel Aviv this evening. “The mission you’ll be given is participation in the killing of hostages,” says Shai Mozes, nephew of former hostage Gadi Mozes, in a speech before thousands of people at the demonstration. “In this situation, there is no other choice but to refuse.” The mother of a combat officer in the IDF reserves, introduced only as Bat-El, says soldiers are wasting away physically and mentally and are deprived of proper defensive equipment. She says the Gaza City takeover plan “puts Israel on the sure path to a forever war that will cause the death of the hostages, cause the deaths of hundreds of soldiers, cause the destruction of Israel’s image.” “Don’t agree to enter Gaza,” she says. “Refuse to participate in an overtly illegal war.” The speakers do not mention the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as a reason to refuse to fight there, though some protesters hold up signs calling on soldiers to refuse to serve for that reason as well. Following the speeches, some protesters hoist flaming torches as they prepare to march around the IDF headquarters to protest the cabinet plan, alongside thousands more people coming from the Hostages Square rally a block away.

Har ikke fått tid til teste selv enda, men synes det ser og høres veldig bra ut. Får gode skussmål av «veteraner» også ut fra hva jeg har sett. Gleder meg til å se de store kartene. Mener faktisk singleplayer i de litt eldre BF-spillene var litt undervurdert, så jeg ser frem til det også.

USA: 'Tactically questionable': US politicians from both major parties voice concern over Gaza City op. https://www.jpost.com/american-politics/article-863693 US officials from both the Democratic and Republican parties have voiced either opposition or concern on Friday for Israel's planned operation to take over Gaza City. "I'd like to know who is actually going to run it," Axios quoted GOP Congressman Tim Burchett, who represents Tennessee's 2nd district, as saying. The US news source quoted another Republican congressman, Ryan Zinke, representing Montana's 1st congressional district, who said that Netanyahu's plan to occupy the city "comes with the responsibility of providing humanitarian assistance and creating an economic future." Richie Torres, one of Congress's most vocal pro-Israel Democrats, was also quoted by the US news source saying that Israel is the "ultimate arbiter of its own security," while adding that the Israel-Hamas war "is in danger of becoming a quagmire." Democrat Rep. Brad Schneider (IL-10) issued an official statement in reaction to the planned operation, saying, "We all want this awful war to end. However, Prime Minister Netanyahu’s decision to take over all of Gaza City is tactically questionable and strategically self-defeating."

Selv Netanyahus nasjonale sikkerhetsrådgiver var imot den upopulære planen om å okkupere av Gaza by, skriver israelske medier. Den ble likevel vedtatt av de Netanyahu-lojale politikerne sikkerhetskabinettet. Også Mossad og IDF var imot, i tillegg til opposisjonen. PM’s national security adviser opposed Gaza City takeover plan — report https://www.timesofisrael.com/pms-national-security-adviser-opposed-gaza-city-takeover-plan-report/ Tzachi Hanegbi said to have IDF chief’s misgivings, told ministers he’s ‘not prepared to give up on saving the hostages,’ at meeting in which they approved military operation. National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi voiced opposition to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s proposal to take over Gaza City on Thursday night, telling the security cabinet that he was “not prepared to give up on saving the hostages,” according to quotes reported by Channel 12 news. “I don’t understand how someone who saw the videos of [hostages] Evyatar [David] and Rom [Braslavski] as well as all the others that were published before them can say: ‘Everything or nothing,'” he reportedly said. There are 50 hostages left in Gaza, but only 20 of them are believed to still be alive. Multiple top security officials have reportedly warned the government the plan will risk their lives.

Det stemmer ikke at tallene er halvert, og det stemmer heller ikke at det ikke er forklart. Det stemmer heller ikke at FN «jukser med tallene». FN justerer fra tid til annen ut fra antall fullt identifisere dødsofre. Forklaringen finner du her, fra en av gangene det ble gjort i 2024: Fact Check: Did UN Halve Gaza Death Toll? https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-did-un-halve-gaza-death-toll-1900325 (…) In the May 8 release, the number of identified women and children casualties was 4,959 and 7,797, respectively. This was interpreted to mean that the U.N. had halved its estimates. However, at a press conference on Monday, U.N. spokesperson Faran Haq said there had been no change in the overall number of fatalities but that new information had been shared about the number of deaths that had been formally and fully identified. "The overall number of fatalities that's been tallied by the Ministry of Health in Gaza, which is our counterpart on dealing with the death tolls, that number remains unchanged and it's at more than 35,000 people since October 7," Haq said. "What's changed is the Ministry of Health in Gaza has updated the breakdown of fatalities for whom full details have been documented "So what they recently published was that they gave figures for 24,686 out of 34,622 overall fatalities recorded in Gaza, and those 24,686 people are the ones for whom full details have been documented. In other words, people who have been fully identified. Det samme gjelder for eksempel tallene for drepte i Ukraina, der FNs tall er langt lavere enn det reelle antallet drepte, fordi de inkluderer kun fullt identifiserte ofre. Både Russland, Israel og deres støttespillere bruker dessverre slike ting som dette til å så tvil, og spre desinformasjon om antallet drepte sivile. Washington Post har en liste med navn og ID på alle de drepte barna opp til 17 år: 60.000 Gazans have been killed. 18,500 were children. These are their names https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2025/israel-gaza-war-children-death-toll/

Australia: Australia urges Israel not to take military control of Gaza https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-08-08/ty-article-live/israeli-cabinet-approves-netanyahu-plan-to-occupy-gaza-city-despite-idf-reservations/00000198-8765-d926-a3fd-ff6d01090000 "Australia calls on Israel to not go down this path, which will only worsen the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza," Foreign Minister Penny Wong said in a statement on Friday. Wong said permanent forced displacement was a violation of international law and repeated calls for a ceasefire, aid to flow unimpeded and for militant group Hamas to return the hostages taken in October 2023. "A two-state solution is the only pathway to secure an enduring peace – a Palestinian state and the State of Israel, living side-by-side in peace and security within internationally-recognised borders," she added.

Finland: Valtonen: Finland following Israel's actions in Gaza with 'great worry' https://yle.fi/a/74-20176499 Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen (NCP) has said the government is following Israel's actions in Gaza with "great worry" and that "the situation must change." Speaking to Reuters on Friday, she stressed that Finland strongly opposes any attempt to alter or seize territories allocated to Palestinians under the 1967 agreements — referring specifically to Gaza and the West Bank. Valtonen said it is vital to preserve the conditions for a two-state solution, even if the prospects currently appear bleak. "Finland's priorities are clear. First, the humanitarian situation in the area must be eased, and aid must be allowed to reach all parts of Gaza," she said. She added that Finland does not accept new Israeli settlements in these territories, nor the violence carried out by some settlers in the West Bank.

Storbritannia: Starmer calls Gaza City takeover plan wrong and urges Israel to reconsider https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/aug/08/israel-wrong-to-escalate-offensive-gaza-city-takeover-plan-keir-starmer Keir Starmer has urged Benjamin Netanyahu to reconsider his plans to take over Gaza City and said the move would only bring more bloodshed. The British prime minister said Israel’s decision to escalate a conflict that has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians over the past 22 months while pushing the territory into famine was wrong and would do nothing to secure the release of Israeli hostages. Israel’s security cabinet approved a plan to take over Gaza City at a meeting that began on Thursday and ran through the night. The plan falls short of taking over the whole of Gaza as Netanyahu said he had intended before the meeting. Starmer said Israel and Hamas should de-escalate the conflict and agree to a ceasefire, and that the prospect of a negotiated two-state solution was “vanishing before our eyes” without the two sides engaging “engaging in good faith in negotiations”. “Every day the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens and hostages taken by Hamas are being held in appalling and inhuman conditions. What we need is a ceasefire, a surge in humanitarian aid, the release of all hostages by Hamas and a negotiated solution,” Starmer said. “Our message is clear: a diplomatic solution is possible, but both parties must step away from the path of destruction.”

Netanyahus folkerettsstridige plan om en full militær okkupasjon av Gazastripen, til tross for at IDF er imot, møter massiv kritikk hjemme i Israel, både hos opposisjonen og blant gisselfamiliene. Også meningsmålinger har vist at planene har liten støtte i befolkningen. Yair Lapid kaller det en katastrofe for generasjoner, mens Benny Gantz mener det må inngås våpenhvile. Gisselfamiliene sier dette er en dødsdom for de gjenværende gislene. ‘A disaster’: Opposition, countries, families of hostages blast Gaza City takeover plan https://www.timesofisrael.com/a-disaster-opposition-countries-families-of-hostages-blast-gaza-city-takeover-plan/ Lapid says newly approved plan is ‘exactly what Hamas wanted’; hostages forum says cabinet ‘sentenced the living hostages to death’; UN, UK, Turkey and other nations condemn plan. (...) Opposition Leader Yair Lapid called the move “a disaster that will lead to many more disasters,” in a post on X, adding that it was made in “complete contradiction to the opinion of the military and security ranks.” “This is exactly what Hamas wanted: for Israel to be trapped in the field without a goal, without defining the picture of the day after, in a useless occupation that no one understands where it is leading,” he said. Yisrael Beytenu party chairman and former defense minister Avigdor Liberman said that the decision “proves that life-and-death decisions are being made in opposition to security considerations and the war’s objectives.” “The prime minister of October 7 is once again sacrificing the security of Israeli citizens for the sake of his seat,” he added. Blue and White-National Unity party chairman Benny Gantz also criticized the plan, calling it a “political failure that wastes the tremendous achievements of the IDF.” In a post on X, Gantz suggested an alternative plan to achieve the war’s stated goals of destroying Hamas and returning the hostages: “It can be done differently: First, announce that in exchange for the return of the hostages, we will be willing to agree to a permanent ceasefire.” “The problem with this government is that it is slow, not determined, does not seize opportunities when they arise, and is not creative,” Gantz said. “We already entered Gaza with divisions despite Netanyahu’s fears, we already entered Khan Younis and Rafah despite Netanyahu delaying it. We will know how to do it in the future as well. But the question is, what have we done since then? Only waste time and military achievements.” “We talked all the time about the day after — and Netanyahu did not act. Israel deserves leadership that seizes opportunities, not leadership that does not strive with all its might to return the hostages and defeat Hamas,” he added. Yair Golan, head of The Democrats party, said the decision means that “more hostages will be abandoned to their deaths,” and that the move was typical of Netanyahu: “He is weak, easily pressured, lacking decision-making ability, and without the capacity to bridge between what the professional level presents and the group of messianists controlling the government.” The decision is “a disaster for generations,” Golan said. “Our sons and grandsons will still patrol the alleys of Gaza, we will pay hundreds of billions over the years, and all this for reasons of political survival and messianic visions,” he added, asking how the government planned to demilitarize the Strip: “Are we going to crawl through tunnels and retrieve the last Kalashnikovs?” The Hostages and Missing Families Forum issued a scathing reaction to the decision to conquer Gaza City, where some of the captives are believed to be held. “Tonight, the Israeli government sentenced the living hostages to death and the fallen hostages to disappearance,” it alleged in a statement. “The cabinet decision to launch the process of occupying the Strip is an official declaration of the abandonment of the hostages, while completely ignoring the repeated warnings by the military echelon and the clear desire of most of the public in Israel,” it continued. The statement accused the government of acting against the national interest with a “foolish” move of “deception and unforgivable moral and security neglect” that brings Israel closer to a “colossal disaster for the hostages and [IDF] fighters.” The Forum added, however, that it was not too late and that the step could be stopped by reaching a comprehensive deal to end the war and return all the captives.

Nå: Et av Israels nærmeste allierte land, Tyskland, stanser våpeneksport til Israel på grunn av Netanyahus utvidelse av krigen på Gazastripen. Germany halts military exports that could be used in Gaza, Merz says https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/germany-halts-military-exports-that-could-be-used-gaza-merz-says-2025-08-08/ The German government will not approve any exports of military equipment that could be used in the Gaza Strip until further notice, Chancellor Friedrich Merz said on Friday in response to Israel's plan to expand its military operations there.

Trump skal ha ropt i telefonen til Netanyahu etter sistnevntes absurde fornektelse av sulten på Gazastripen ifølge amerikanske og israelske medier. Trump shouted at Netanyahu in phone call over PM’s denial of Gaza hunger — report https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/trump-shouted-at-netanyahu-in-phone-call-over-pms-denial-of-gaza-hunger-report/ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump recently had a phone call turn into shouting over the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, NBC News reports, citing unnamed senior US officials. According to the report, the fiery phone conversation took place on July 28, after Netanyahu said at an event that, despite widespread reports of hunger and starvation in the Strip, “there is no starvation in Gaza” — to which Trump publicly responded the next day that he was “not particularly convinced” by Netanyahu’s assurance, saying there was “real starvation” in the Strip and adding: “You can’t fake that.”

Store protester i Israel i kveld mot Netanyahus utvidelse av krigen, som ifølge IDF vil gjøre det mindre sannsynlig å redde gislene. Både familier av gisler, og tidligere gisler er med i demonstrasjonene. Thousands, including freed hostages, protest across Israel as Netanyahu convenes cabinet on Gaza takeover https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-08-07/ty-article-live/rubio-gaza-humanitarian-crisis-is-real-but-not-enough-attention-paid-to-israeli-hostages/00000198-823f-d3d0-a79a-8eff4e860000?liveBlogItemId=1181171441#1181171441 Protesters include Ilana Gritzewsky, Arbel Yehoud and Sharon Cunio-Alony, who were held hostage in Gaza and released in deals with Hamas. Their respective partners, Matan Zangauker, Ariel Cunio and David Cunio are still held in captivity. The Hostage and Missing Families Forum issued a statement saying: "We appeal to the cabinet – the expansion of the fighting creates the danger of death and disappearance for our loved ones – look us in the eye when you choose to sacrifice them. Now is the time, put a comprehensive agreement on the table that will return everyone together – all 50 hostages."

Enig. Kirka ringte også i klokkene etter Russland gikk til full invasjon av Ukraina. At kirka har valgt å markere disse to gigantiske hendelsene der religion har vært sentralt - den russiske invasjonen av Europa og det som de fleste eksperter nå er enige om at er et pågående folkemord, bør være helt uproblematisk for alle og enhver.

Kraftig kritikk fra Storbritannia mot Netanyahu-regimet: British ambassador: ‘Would be a huge mistake’ for Israel to occupy entire Gaza Strip https://www.timesofisrael.com/british-ambassador-would-be-a-huge-mistake-for-israel-to-occupy-entire-gaza-strip/ British Ambassador to Israel Simon Walters said Thursday that it “would be a huge mistake” for Israel to occupy all of Gaza, and pushed back on American and Israeli accusations that the planned UK recognition of Palestinian statehood would reward Hamas. Hosting a briefing for Israeli reporters, Walters also condemned settler violence in the West Bank, “for which [Israel] seems to [impose] no consequences,” and highlighted Gaza’s “horrifying” humanitarian situation, calling on Israel to allow “full unrestricted access to aid.” (…) “The IDF has done all that it can do in Gaza — it’s not going to achieve any more by fighting any longer,” said Walters. “Extending the war any further will simply lead to more deaths — deaths of soldiers, deaths of Palestinians, and, likely, deaths of hostages.” He added that if Israel wants to defeat Hamas, “it can’t do that only militarily — it requires politics and diplomacy, and giving Gazans an alternative to Hamas” as Gaza’s post-war government.

Kan det ha blitt litt mye internett?

Polen: Israel kaller inn Polens ambassadør på teppet, etter at statsminister Donald Tusk sa at "Polen vil aldri være på siden til politikere hvis handlinger fører til sult og dødsfall blant mødre og barn, og at dette burde være åpenbart for nasjoner som opplevde andre verdenskrig." Israel kaller disse uttalelsene for "uakseptable" og en "fornærmelse mot ofre for Holocaust" (!). Israel summons Poland’s ambassador over Tusk remarks on Gaza https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7785/Artykul/3561308,israel-summons-poland’s-ambassador-over-tusk-remarks-on-gaza On Sunday, Tusk wrote on X that Poland “was, is and will be” on Israel’s side against Islamist terrorism, “but never on the side of politicians whose actions lead to hunger and the deaths of mothers and children,” adding this should be obvious to nations that endured World War Two. (...) The ministry said Ambassador Maciej Hunia was called in “for an official démarche by the head of the Political-Strategic Division, following unacceptable statements made by the prime minister of Poland.”

Netanyahus sønn Yair beskylder IDF for å "planlegge et opprør og militærkupp" mot faren, etter at IDF-sjefen uttalte seg negativt om Netanyahus planer om militær okkupasjon av hele Gazastripen. Yair Netanyahu, som leder en høyreekstrem podcast, har av israelsk media tidligere blitt kalt "en krysning mellom Tucker Carlson og Marjorie Taylor Greene". Han har tidligere hevdet at de israelske sikkerhetstjenestene forsøker å avsette faren, og deler hyppig rasistiske innlegg om palestinere og konspirasjonsteorier i sosiale medier. Netanyahu’s eldest son, Yair, also took to social media from his home in Miami to lambaste Zamir in a series of posts on X, and implied the IDF chief was trying to lead a military rebellion against his father. https://www.timesofisrael.com/netanyahu-holding-talks-on-gaza-war-plans-as-loyalists-launch-attacks-on-idf-chief/

Tjaaaaaa… Fra regjeringen: «I morgentimene 7. oktober i fjor stormet et stort antall Hamas-krigere inn over grensen til Israel fra Gaza. De drepte, lemlestet, mishandlet og voldtok. Flere av kibbutzene nær Gaza ble brent ned og ødelagt. Hundrevis av unge mennesker på festival ble massakrert. 1200 mennesker ble drept i Israel den dagen. 254 gisler ble bortført til Gaza. 35 av gislene er erklært døde. 101 sitter fortsatt i Hamas’ fangenskap. Holdt i over ett år, under omstendigheter vi ikke kan forestille oss. Foreldre, søstre, brødre, barn og venner venter fortvilet på at de skal komme hjem. Gislene må løslates - umiddelbart og betingelsesløst. Det haster mer enn noensinne for dem som fortsatt lever. Dette var terror av verste sort, gjennomført av en terrororganisasjon. Hamas var ansvarlig for terrorangrepet, og bærer en stor del av ansvaret også for brutaliteten som fulgte. For terror mot Israel, for raketter mot Israel, og for fortsatt å holde gislene fanget. Angrepet bekreftet den israelske befolkningens verste frykt, og lærdommen fra den jødiske historien: Uten beskyttelse, kan det aller verste skje. Det er viktig å ta inn over seg hvor traumatiserende dette var for hele det israelske folket, ja faktisk for jøder over hele verden.» https://www.regjeringen.no/no/aktuelt/utenriksministerens-redegjorelse-om-midtosten/id3065044/ Skikkelig «på godfot med Hamas» der ja!

Den store amerikanske sionistiske lobbygruppen J Streets leder mener Israel begår folkemord i Gaza. J Street head says he’s now convinced Israel committing genocide in Gaza https://www.timesofisrael.com/j-street-head-says-hes-now-convinced-israel-committing-genocide-in-gaza/ In a newsletter Sunday marking Tisha B’Av, a day of mourning to commemorate catastrophes throughout Jewish history, Ben-Ami recalled his parents’ experience with the Holocaust and laid out Hamas’s crimes against Israel, including the Palestinian terror group’s October 7, 2023, attack that killed 1,200 people, resulted in 251 hostages and triggered the ongoing war. “Yet none of that provides any rationale for what Israel is doing now in Gaza,” wrote Ben-Ami. “Denying food and basic necessities of life to civilians. Soldiers shooting at civilians trying to get food. Destruction of the entire infrastructure of Gaza. Forcing the population into intolerably small areas. Hoping to create the conditions under which an entire population will be forcibly displaced.” (…) “I cannot and will not argue any more against those using the term. I simply won’t defend the indefensible.” “Until now, I have tried to deflect and defend when challenged to call this genocide,” he wrote. “I have, however, been persuaded rationally by legal and scholarly arguments that international courts will one day find that Israel has broken the international genocide convention.”

Både TV2 og andre norske medier har skrevet om at dette er blitt en sak. En sak som knapt ville fått noe som helst oppmerksomhet dersom det ikke var for kulturkrigere og anti-woke - som er omtrent de eneste som bryr seg om dette. Det finnes faktisk ingen «woke mob» eller en «venstreside» som mener at denne reklamen er rasistisk. Det er en konstruert greie. Et par Twitter-poster og en kronikk er alt som skulle til for å få Fox News til å produsere flere dusin innslag og anti-woke influenserne til å ta helt av rundt dette.

Jeg har mast om at de må gjøre dette i to år nå. De okkuperer allerede 75% av Gazastripen militært, men det hjelper dessverre ikke stort å okkupere hele området militært dersom ikke det finnes noen reell plan for å erstatte Hamas, eller bruke nok soldater til å nedkjempe dem helt. Det blir bare en evig runddans, og resultatet er enorme sivile tap og en del egne tap også. Som IDF har forsøkt å fortelle Netanyahu lenge hjelper det ikke å vinne militære seire når det ikke finnes noen politisk eller sivil plan (som ikke er etnisk rensing) til å følge opp.
