One of them was found on twitter rabidly defending this genocide. They work at the embassy. They're defending this genocide as part of their job. They're directly part of trying to erase this genocide.
So you think that only the people pulling the trigger deserve death but the people trying to cover it up don't? That's a remarkable viewpoint
Yes? They deserve to be held accountable but even in a fair legal system they would not face the death penalty while those actually directly participating in or ordering war crimes would.
The brilliant legal systems of both countries involved here are currently trying to imprison everyone who doesn't gleefully support the total annihilation of Palestine. This is the extremely predictable result of stomping out every single alternative way of opposing an ongoing genocide.
And like what do you think the appropriate consequence for aiding a genocide should be? Simple murderers and their accomplices often get life, so how does the math work out when it's a few hundred thousand and the total destruction of an entire nation?
Clearly everyone here is illiterate lol
