It is disappointing, if not surprising, that the west’s response to the ICC accusations was to defend Israel despite its war crimes

So you are saying if a population was invaded then it would be right for that population to fight back? What if they were still fighting back 77 years later? Would you forget who the defender was? Would you allow Israel to play the victim? Apparently, yes.

From the tone of your post it seems like you'd support those defenders but in reality you don't seem to recognize Israel is the aggressor reaping the rewards of nearly a century of murder.

October 7th was a dividend payment on Israel's investments in blood and bombs. Israel is continuing to invest in blood and bombs, so I would expect to see more terrorism in Israel in the future given the countless families they have destroyed.
