On March 22nd, this journalist detailed the findings of a UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on “Israel’s systematic use of sexual, reproductive and other forms of gender-based violence since 7 October 2023.” That investigation focused primarily on the hideous, industrial scale rape and sexual abuse of male and female Palestinian detainees in Zionist Occupation Force prisons, a phenomenon so pervasive it can only be dedicated, determined policy, signed off upon and directed by the highest levels of the Israeli government.

Reinforcing that horrifying conclusion, buried within the Commission’s report are bombshell passages unequivocally charging the Zionist entity with deliberately committing “genocidal acts” in Gaza, consciously and intentionally “calculated to bring about the physical destruction of Palestinians as a group.” The details provided are irresistibly persuasive, and point to Israel being in flagrant breach of both the Rome Statute, and Genocide Convention. In a truly just world, the mainstream media’s mass omertà on this landmark ruling would in itself be a criminal act.

    Unbiased reporting (or unbiased anything for that matter) doesn’t exist. The sooner people realize that, the sooner they’ll stop letting the imperial media pull the wool over their eyes.

      Then it’s a good thing I wasn’t asking for unbiased reporting. What I asked for was more reporting, because I would like to verify it with multiple sources. Unbiased reporting doesn’t exist, but there is in fact an unbiased (or at least minimally-biased) version of the news itself, and the most reliable way to get there is to hit a subject from multiple angles. If the people who love Israel are also complaining about it then it’s safe to say it’s legit, for example.
