One last time, just because terrorists and their propagandists tell you it’s a genocide, that doesn’t mean you should believe them. Engage your brain, for god’s sake.

It isn't for you or I to decide if it's a genocide or not. It is for the courts of law. After all, there are the experts there, not you or I.
Finally, propaganda is used by both parties. Let's not forget this fact.

I’m sure there will be a legal ruling on whether it was a genocide or not. I am also hoping that people will now have more bandwidth to look at Sudan.

Why? Are you only able to give time to one thing at once? There are many publications and the UN which have been reporting consistently from the region. Also many humanitarian organisations fundraising I was at one myself last week.

Great. So now Israel can stop bombing civilians in order to find him I assume.

Probably not of hamas don't stop bombing Israeli civilians🤷

Fathom is a perfectly well respected publication.

Respected by whom? It has a clear bias

Confirmed.

Excellent news, hopefully we'll now see the return of the hostages, the cessation of attacks on Israel and the eviction of hamas. I look forward to seeing the marchers celebrating it this weekend...

No mention of the end of the bombing, deliberate starvation, the withdrawal of meds, the destruction of hospitals and the list goes on. All this deliberately and systematically inflected by the Israeli government/idf. Why is that?
The vast majority of marchers ( I am one of them) march for this.
Why don't you organise a march to celebrate the death of this vile terrorist? I would gladly join it.

If only bandwidth was the issue.

Confirmed. I hope this brings us closer to the end of the war and to the hostages coming back.

Will it? One of Israel's top ministers has just been reported to say that Israel will remain in Gaza for many years to come despite Sinwar's killing.

Great news, Israel will never fire another bullet at a Palestinian child again, torture a prisoner or allow settlers to land grab.

Because they have always said the whole thing was about “getting the hostages back”?

No the eradication of Hamas was also a stated goal. The different approach to achieving the two objectives did cause huge controversy though.

'Controversy' is an understatement, they are committing a genocide.

Will Israel stop killing innocent civilians now

Will hamas release the innocent civilian hostages and sending daily rockets, drones etc. Into Israel now?

But not at the cost of releasing the architect of 7 October. That would be insane.

Why on earth would they even consider that after 7 October?

Could they not have made an exchange - Sinwar for the hostages and end the war?
