>it was a riot so a messy thing to investigate

You have any evidence for that beyond the IDF saying it was?

I'll check back in two weeks and confirm that nothing comes of it, we can play this game for years, and I'm confident nothing will ever come of it beyond a possible slap on the wrist to say "look we took action".

Rachel Aliene Corrie. The US doesn't give a shit about any American when it comes to Palestine.

"launch an invasion"

You always jump to extremes when making decisions?

Here's the official statement from the US government: they are actively investigating it: https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/canadian-national-ice-custody-passes-away

And the embassador tweeted: **My team is following the death of a Canadian citizen while in @ICEgov custody. We will keep the Canadian government informed as ICE completes its investigation. I trust in ICE's commitment to transparency and to providing a safe environment for all individuals in its care.**

Do you find as Israeli government page saying we're investigating it? Not they I think ICE or Israel would investigate themselves properly, but at least they still put up the facade that diplomacy matters.

Did US media create a touching profile for the victim?

The US is funding and backing a genocide of Palestinians in Israel, and Israeli settlers murdering Palestinians is perfectly acceptable and happens every day. You'd think it would be different if it's a US citizen, but it's not, if you are killed by Israelis as a Palestinian or as a citizen of the US or its allies standing up for Palestinians, they treat you with the same contempt.

That's objectively not true.

You guess very stupidly, and without evidence. No one suggested "anything goes", and you're once again implying an action that occurred in an attempt to stop genocide is isolated act of aggression.

It doesn't "go", Houthis don't just get to sink ships, that's not the argument being made.

Israel is actively slaughtering children, and they've been warned for well over a year now to stop or ships heading their way will be attacked.

I know you understand the concept, you'll happily attribute the death of civilians indiscriminately bombed in a besieged enclave to the resistance militants and disgustingly call them human shields... But here they aren't living in an open air prison that they aren't allowed to leave, here they took a job on a ship going to a state that's currently unapologetically live streaming a genocide.

No, but I did warn my mailman not to deliver the ammo to my neighbor who has already killed my uncle's entire family and is promising to murder my wife next.

We can play this game forever. The reaction to genocide isn't worse than genocide.

Man, imagine watching a live steamed genocide for two years and when a few people get hurt because they're working on a ship that supports the genocide, that's when you feel empathy.

it would suck to be under rocket and terrorist attacks frequently.

Two years and you still don't see who the aggressor is?

In 2023 alone before October 7, Israel killed 242 Palestinians which includes 47 children. Israel killed 47 Palestinian children in 2023 alone before October 7.

The Gaza ghetto uprising might have been gruesome and unpalatable, but it's Gaza that was defending itself against Israel, not the other way around.

That's irrelevant...
