Current WAR CRIMES Israel - Hamas - Hezbollah - Houthis

[Jazny]

Have "Private Militias" or companies that control them, ever been charged or convicted for war crimes anywhere around the world?

Yes.

Or are Corporate entities exempt from the various International War Crimes laws?

No.

Edit: This is more complex and probably deserves a better answer to cover the bases.

Yes people working within these companies can be charged with war crimes and it has happened. The ICC itself cannot charge companies with war crimes though, but there are other avenues for corporate liability for war crimes than the ICC. It does make it more difficult to pursue corporations though, but the individuals responsible for the war crimes can just as easily be charged by the ICC as anyone else.

Also, it's my understanding that the ICJ can prosecute countries who have effective control over the PMCs for war crimes. A country cannot just hire military contractors and have them carry out war crimes as a way of bypassing international law. Although this hasn't happened yet as far as I am aware, but Russia could legally, and hopefully will be, held responsible for the actions of Wagner.

There are many roles in a prison.

Ok screw.

Not a lot but there are tasks officers should be doing if they are performing adequately. Walking around the prison maintaining the security and integrity of the facility and the safety and compliance of the prisoners. Monitoring the cameras. Incident reports. Intelligence reports.


Night shift, yes, but during the day there's actually quite a bit that an officer should be doing (e.g. patting down prisoners) depending on the post. Problem is it attracts the laziest people, the kind of people who become mall and bank security guards because they see it as "getting paid to do nothing". There were some good officers at my facility and they didn't do nothing, they were reasonably busy. They didn't spend entire shifts in the control rooms, they walked around, chatted to staff, chatted to prisoners, monitored the activities within their area. Then reports, if necessary. And in the control rooms, they actually watched the CCTV. Not saying they never went online, everybody did, it is a boring job. But the good officers were online in breaks between tasks, most officers were online, seemingly ignored the CCTV for the most part, did as little as possible, and left their desk as infrequently as possible. The union is very active!

Of course it benefits you/us, we'd have already distanced if it didn't. It also benefits us as an ally of the US and it would be incredibly reckless to piss them off.

What do you think would happen if all Israel's allies pulled away and ostracised them as you suggest?

It's not correct that our government acts in the interests of the majority of Australians. The majority of Australians don't have lobby groups and wield undue influence over the media. And cannot give politicians jobs on boards after they retire from government.

This is such a shit, anti-semitic post on so many levels.

Also, let's be clear;

Lobbying is a legitimate activity and an important part of the democratic process.

Lobbyists can help individuals and organisations to communicate their views on matters of public importance to the Australian Government. In doing so, they can help to improve outcomes for the individual and the community as a whole.

Are you trying to say that Jewish Australian's are not allowed to participate legally in the democratic process because they are too good at it?
Can you clarify your position or remove your post regarding "undue influence over the media".

Your last sentence is blatantly anti-semetic. Pull your head in.

Yeah, the bolded is pretty much his point. Individuals and organisations don't have the best interests of the constituents at heart. The government should, but obviously don't because lobby groups get the best (read selfish) outcomes for elite minorities in society.

While I'm not a fan of sanctions that can really hurt the people, Iran isn't without friends.

Of course the US cuddles up to shit regimes, our government does the same thing if it's to our benefit, that's what we pay them for. They must act to our advantage and it gets real dirty.

Sanctions always hurt the people. We cuddle up to the shit regimes the US tells us to.

The US needs enemies. How else are they going to justify the huge spending on the MIC?

It seems to me there was a chance of some progress with the nuclear deal but that buffoon Trump fkd that.

He never mentions Jews.

Plenty of lobby groups from corporations and industries employ ex-pollies. Plenty of pollies aren’t acting in the best interests of their constituents, but instead in the best interests of their corporate pals.

Jazny making shit up again.

Why are they so angry that Australia is sanctioning their West Bank settler terrorist friends?

It says in the statement why they are angry. It's only a one minute read, I know that's a stretch for you, but give it a try.

Now what is this other racist conspiracy you were going on about?

Do you disagree with sanctioning West Bank settler terrorists?

Do you disagree with sanctioning West Bank settler terrorists?

No. I agree with sanctions.

Now explain your question "Don't those organisations funnel money to West Bank settler terrorists?"

Is Tzedek Collective anti semitic and/or racist Jazny?

How is the original post anti semantic , it maybe, but by jingos i cant see how it is.

I was on the understanding from jazzy that lobbying via free chocolates doesnt happen.

I look forward to your personal insult to me
