What is an ethno-religious group?

BoldBrainz:


I'm fairly informed on the protocol and statutes of the Geneva conventions, and nowhere in your laid-down Article pointer does it bestow the unilateral decision on any person(s) to determine what constitutes the appropriate deterrence or retaliation for the "supposed existence and meditated use of lethal weapons", Mr Gbadebo.

You cannot audaciously seek to justify an illegality by dancing around the edges of legal provisions with tricky semantics.

To further buttress the issue in discourse, there's been absolutely no insinuations or slight evidence of the intended use of lethal weapons (whether nuclear, biological or chemical) in the wars that have festered between Israel and Hamas on one hand, then Russia and Ukraine on the other.

But conveniently and ever more worrisome, Israel has unilaterally assumed the god figure by determining retaliatory measures that have globally been considered extreme and high-handed, except of course by their Nairaland apologists.

You know all of this to be true, but you're an extremist who seeks to divest from facts to appease your lopsided sentiments. Much as you're however entitled to your perspectives irrespective of how strongly others feel against them, do not seek legal justifications for war crimes. It simply projects you as a disingenuous being.

N/B: The military doctrine of necessity does not invalidate or override the principle of proportionality, but is in fact a test of compliance to proportionality in any war related context, upon which subsequent International court judgements are predicated to determine what constitutes war crimes. Please stop misinforming the reading public.

You're even more stupid than I earlier imagined for trying to justify that with this. Please don't quote me again because conversing with you will definitely reduce my IQ levels.

For anyone wanting a refresher, here is how it happened as reported by an Israeli newspaper. Only God knows how many innocent civilians have been killed this way.

According to an IDF official, the three male hostages emerged shirtless out of a building toward a group of IDF soldiers "tens of meters" away, with one carrying a white flag. An Israeli sniper then opened fire on them, killing Shamriz and Talalka and wounding Haim. After being shot, Haim ran into a nearby building and shouted for help in Hebrew. The battalion commander then ordered the troops to hold their fire, while Haim was persuaded to exit the building but when he did so 15 minutes later, a soldier acting against the battalion commander's order shot and killed him

So because someone invented the expression "ethno-religious group", you are now justified to confuse religion with ethnicity ?


It seems your education was very superficial.
Your blind eyes still think an Arab Jew is of the same ethnicity as a European Jew ? My mistake, your eyes are not blind, your brain lacks logic, that is worse.

Mr. Writtng and co. Pls is there no way you can start a new thread with disable commentary, just only for news? It will really go a long way in easing all these spams in the name of aurguments. The new thread can still exist side by side with the old one, only that the new one will serve as news resource to those of us who don't enjoy all these back & forth from hoodlums on this thread. Thank you.!

I love the way the Russians simply focused on their quest in the Kharkov and Nicholaiev directions, refusing to pull troops from the south to attack the Ukrainian Kursk suicide mission grouping currently running amok over there. What they thought or expected to be a distraction for the Russians, is now slowly turning to be a blessing in disguise because the Ukrainian sham offensive in Kursk means less men to defend from the Russian attacks on most of the fronts. The Russians are now taking territories at much easier speed compared to the square meters they were taking before the Ukronazi Kursk suicide mission.

Now, it's making more sense. One Russian artillery man told a news source that the Russian authorities got wind of the planned Ukrainian Kursk incursion before it happened. The fact that they still allowed it to happen speaks volume. And when you consider how they're responding to it (tacitly instead of frantically), one tend to believe what the artillery man said. But, what is the Russian end game in this? Is it to lure Ukro troops from their defense lines and make the Russian objectives of taking targeted territories more attainable? Or to form another meat grinder deep inside Russia, which would be easier than Bahkmuth because the Ukros would have huge problem supplying their units in Kursk once the Russians turned around to face them squarely? Or is Russia purposely encouraging this Kursk incursion to drain Ukraine of its remaining best fighting force and then open another front? Russia still has a huge force sitting in Belarus and another in the Zaporozhia direction. Whatever the endgame might be, one thing is certain, Ukraine will never come out of Kursk in good shape.

Jeez I'm disappointed in you you fall my hand. 😭

Some one invented / coined the word religion ethnicity and many other words did words just fall out of the sky?

So answer is Druze a religious group or an ethnicity .

❗The Russian army has "come very close" to the city of Pokrovsk in the DPR

The head of the local administration, Sergei Dobryak called on residents to evacuate, as the Russian military is "a little more than 10 km from the outskirts of the city".

Earlier Ukrainian soldiers from the Pokrovsk front told Politico that after the start of the Kursk operation, the situation for them worsened.

⚡Ukraine will pay a very high price for the Kursk adventure!

Gbadebo19:

Excuse me, I only told you the position of the existing law, it is not about what is currently existing in Israel and Palestine or Russia and Ukraine.
Stop attaching your existing bias to legal positions.
You obviously are not even fairly informed at all. Just check the article I gave you and stop wrong useless and unnecessary grammar here.

Appleyard:


This is exactly what I was saying.... The Russians deliberately allowed the Kursk fiasco to unravel. Majority of the fronts are now collapsing with speed because Ukraine has moved most of their best fighting force to the Sumy region from where the Kursk offensive was carried out. Now, the man on Coke would be doubling down to keep the current PR narrative going on the media that, they're fighting Russians inside Russia, whereas, his defense front lines deep in Ukraine are collapsing much easier than before.

There is a reason why Elensky is a comedian. Pathetic.

I don't think it is deliberate. But it is a calculated risk. The Russian military knew it were a possibility and calculated the risk, they made up plans in case it happens and concluded it would be a bad deal for Ukraine. Ukraine made the move, the Russians executed the plans prepared for this eventuality. You should study game theory a little bit.

Appleyard:


The endgame will tell. But, I know after this, Ukraine will never be the same again.

Your inability to comprehensively understand words and their implications doesn't render them "useless and unnecessary".

Any modestly intelligent reader will see the properness with which I have so far tailored my responses to address whatever miniscule points you have attempted to raise.

And as has always been your trademark in the face of superior arguments to your streamlined intellect, you're already resorting to derogatory remarks and that Mr Gbadebo, is a mistake you do not want to make with me.

This argument is solely premised on the goings-on in Gaza and Ukraine respectively, and you cannot herd me into having a debate that deviates from the instances afoot.

Simply put, least for the sake of your jelly brain which seems to have obvious difficulties processing certain concepts, there is no provision in the Geneva conventions that gives Israel or any warring nation, the locus standi to wipe out civilian lives and settlements under the guise of pre-empting a "lethal" attack by other nations, bodies or individuals even when there are absolutely no evidences suggesting the existence or even intended use of said "lethal weapons".

I am done with you. Go and read last two responses to you. Believe information based on your existing bias.
N.B: It is people like you who cry when your use if derogatory remarks are returned in full force. Can you point out the derogatory remarks in me saying "you are not well informed and that you speak unnecessary grammar?"
But here you are calling me jelly brain and all sorts.
Lastly, be warned. Not only you work or have people in the federal level. It is not only your family members that are in the military, police, judiciary or the top echelons of government.
All your rubbish threat of not trying it with you do not move me an inch.

Mr Gbadebo justifies the arbitrary killings of tens of thousands of civilian women and children by Israel in Gaza, citing the superiority of legal provisions over the sanctity of human lives.

He is asked by an interlocutor to provide details of the said Legal authorisation for the above-mentioned genocidal acts.

Gbadebo quotes articles from the Geneva convention.

He is further told that even those statutes do not support or validate the illegality going on in Gaza.

Gbadebo blames his interlocutor's use of vocabularies first, then goes ahead to sit in the corner of his small bedroom to determine how women and children in Gaza constitute the supposed Hamas terrorist organisation and is even telling millions of Nairaland users that he and his kinsmen do not recognise the Hamas authority in Palestine😂😂.

Mr man, do yourself the favour of returning to school. And this time, pursue a career in the theatre arts department, because you'll make a better comedian than the legal charlatan you're slowly turning out to be.

I don't know if you studied in europe like I did, but if you did then when you compare yourself with your mates who studied in Nigeria, you often end up wondering if they lied about going to the university. The gap is too great in general (I'm not talking about the few good ones).
The one education department in which Nigerian universities didn't completely fail is medecin. Nigeria does have some good medical doctors who shine when they go abroad.

What don't you understand in "someone invented the expression" ?


Totally irrelevant, you are using semi-literate logic.


Look, it's best we stop talking to each other. You think with religion not with logic.

Has hamas blown up a hospital in Gaza during this war yes or NO. I guess they did it on purpose.


Let me school you a little there are war zones and humanitarian zones in Gaza. In you stroll into the war zone you may get mistaken for a Hamas operative why? Don't Hamas wear uniform.


No they don't. Could you please tell me why?

Let me give you a hint.
It's the same reason they operate form houses mosque schools and hospitals.

petesunday:
All your assertions here, why can't we conveniently apply it when others attack israel.
When Hamas entered Israel, the civilians that died should be judged collateral damage as well. Israel is using human shield.

I'm uneducated I dropped out of school in kindergarten -1

You on the other hand are a prof With infinite level IQ.


Surely you can tell me enlighten me on if the Druze Is a religion and an ethnicity.


What names should we call cultures that are both a religion and an ethnicity.


Is it even possible to be both a religion and an ethnicity.


If you can't tell me or give any of those answers.


Then you're one of the biggest idiot on this thread and I'll always from now on include that when I'm disccusing with you.


And please show me where I pointed anything about Christianity to you during this discussion because I didn't say anything religious to you neither do I know your religious background.
