    This is not accountability - this is just documentation and recording. Which, to be clear, is extremely important - but let’s not fool ourselves that this qualifies as accountability in any way whatsoever.

      This is not accountability

      It’s accounting, which is the first part of not just the word, but also the process of accountability

        So which of these descriptions are you applying to Israel’s genocidal activities when you use the term “accountability”?

        1. Israel should disclose how much money they spent on their genocide?

        2. Israel should have a proper system to record how much they spent on their genocide?

        3. Israel should properly “relay” and “justify” their actions?

        Do any of these actually mean anything to anyone anywhere?

      Uh, I think you misspeller ‘antisemitic terrorism’. Recording the words and actions of active genocides is so antisemitic. Literally worse than blowing up a hospital.
