UN rights chief: Israel’s Gaza response ‘wholly disproportionate’ – BBC News
The UN human rights chief says Israel used “wholly disproportionate” force against Palestinian border protests which have left over 100 people dead. Israel’s Ambassador Aviva Raz Shechter rejected the blame, saying Israel had done everything possible to avoid harming civilians.
UN rights chief Zeid Raad Al Hussein told a meeting in Geneva that Gazans were effectively “caged in a toxic slum” and Gaza’s occupation by Israel had to end.
Israel’s ambassador said Gaza’s militant Islamist rulers had deliberately put people in harm’s way.
The UN meeting is considering calling for an independent investigation.
Some 60 Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces on Monday on the seventh consecutive week of border protests, largely orchestrated by Hamas, which politically controls the Gaza Strip.
It was the deadliest day in Gaza since a 2014 war between Israel and militants there.

The UK Prime Minister’s demand for an early General Election looks set to be rejected by Members of Parliament after opposition parties agreed it shouldn’t take place until after the European Union Summit in mid-October.
Labour, the Liberal Democrats, the Scottish National Party and Plaid Cymru the party of Wales say they won’t back the government’s bid for an election. They declared they wanted an extension to the Brexit date of October 31st to guarantee that the UK won’t leave the EU without a deal.
On a visit to Scotland, Mr Johnson accused them of making an “extraordinary political mistake”. It came as the House of Lords approved a bill to prevent a no-deal Brexit. It will get royal assent and become law on Monday.

A post-Brexit trade deal has finally been agreed, four and a half years after the UK voted to leave the European Union.
The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said it would protect jobs and provide certainty for business.
After months of talks and frantic last-minute wrangling over fishing, negotiators finally reached agreement on Christmas Eve, with just a week to go before the deadline when the UK’s transition period was coming to an end.
The president of the European Commission, Ursula Von de Leyen, described it as a good and fair agreement.
Some business leaders said the agreement had come as a “huge relief”. However others — along with some British politicians — said they would wait to study the details of the agreement before reaching a judgement on it.

President Donald Trump has threatened to bomb Oman – a US ally – if it “gets in the way” of his administration’s own talks with Iran, Fox News reports.
The US and Oman have separately been negotiating with Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway that is vital to the global economy. It has been largely closed for nearly six months during the US-Iran war.
The threat came after the 60-day Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two sides expired. The future of talks between the US and Iran is now unclear.

The idea of needing the response to be proportionate is pure rubbish. If the Gaza terrorists want to live, then they must stop shooting rockets at Israel. I believe the response should be much stronger. Israel tries in every way to avoid civilian casualties, but Hamas is murdering Gazan children by shooting the rockets from schools and hospitals. A proportionate response would be for Israel to launch rockets into Gaza in an effort to kill innocent civilians like Hamas does against Israel. Far more Palestinians would die in that event.

87 “Palestinians” he means 87 criminals, of course isis and its allies are complaining, because there own forces are being killed by the IDF…I had no idea ISIS-plo-hamas had infiltrated the UN so much…

I bet this guy isn't very popular on the world stage.. unless it's going to be a white wash and a deliberate attempt to shift blame in the direction of the Palestinine people.. which would destroy an future attempts and undermine any future investigations that spin off of this investigation.. the fact that it made it before the UN ..has me suspicious

I am pretty sure they are only talking about one side of the story.
The guy did state that they were throwing Molotov cocktails at the border along.
Also the more deaths on one side is mainly due to Israeli having better weapons to defend themselves with.
I do think they need to try a diffrent method in dealing with children, but I do also think the Palestinian side should keep children away from a border that has hostility from both sides

Disproportionate use of violence? this is a nice way to say what Israel did is a crime against humanity! You are the reason for what the Palestinians have been a slaughter for seven decades! You are a disgrace, you don't fulfil your duty as a protector of peace and defenceless civilians United Nations you are just another bureaucratic institution created just to subvert those who oppose the imperialist agenda of the great powers. You will never impose sanctions against Israel for its criminal behaviour against the Palestinians, you will never hold Israel accountable for such cruel and inhumane policies!! YOU JUST TALK! while the Palestinians are slaughter day after day, year after year and decade after decade! shame on you!

I pray with every fibre of my being that rock bottom has been reached in terms of the violence and that upwards is the way the region will go.The UN must put its words into action. For its own credibility, for the sake of those trapped in the quagmire and for all of us waiting and watching for this scourge to be stopped so that justice can be done.

"Better bad press than a good eulogy" The Chief forgets that Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza and forcibly removed all settlers in hopes of a first step for peace with the Palestinians. Instead, Hamas took over Gaza and created a terrorist stronghold festering on Israel's southern boarder. No country in the world would put up with that.
Palestinians have been waging the richest revolution in history. With Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, and Iraq as past sponsors… To Qatar, Kuwait, Turkey, and Iran the new sponsors. They could have built Gaza into Dubai with all the money they blew trying to kill Israelis. They could have had their state years ago including East Jerusalem. Palestinian leadership simply hate Israel more than they care for their people so they send them to their deaths.

This is all-too predictable. Almost all of those killed or injured were Hamas operatives ACCORDING to Hamas.

Simple. The IDF should not be using deadly force. They are more than capable of “defending themselves” with other means.

All those people that stayed home there was a 100% survival rate. Hamas stated that 53 terrorists that were killed were part of the Hamas Military wing. The 100% of all the others were paid actors who were bussed towards the borderline, and even a mother got paid to bring here DEAD BABY and got paid for bringing her dead baby and act as a casualty
