The publication of a United Nations Commission of Inquiry report charging Israel with “genocide” has, predictably, generated global headlines, and the potential consequences are serious. 🇺🇳 LIBEL: A UN report accusing Israel of genocide cites a @guardian story claiming that the IDF database shows 83% of those killed in Gaza were civilians. This rebuttal examines the central defects of the UN report (the “Report”) issued by the Commission of Inquiry (the “Commission”). By ignoring this reality, the report strips the conflict of its military context and recasts lawful military targets as evidence of genocide. The Report cites numerous incidents where civilians were killed as intentional and targeted acts by Israel without evidence.
