  1. Why don'y ask if Hamas is fallowing international law? Because using babies and hospitals as human shields is against international law! Yet NO condemnation for them? Stop your hypocritical propaganda news!

  2. какие глаза у женщины

  3. Israel is a rogue nation. They don't care about international law. They have money, a nuke and Jewish lawyers !😂

  4. All these protesters have no clue what they are doing or what they are protesting about!!!! They are saying boycott Nike but half the Palestine protesters are wearing Nike shoes 👟 lol what a joke!!! They are looking more and more ridiculous!!!! Wake up and stop believing everything you see on the media!!!!!! None of this would have happened under the trump administration!!!! Facts are facts!!!!

  5. More like stricter laws for the media about lying to the public FAKE NEWS

  6. This trash media needs to go especially her

  7. Dayan they need better liars in congress I would send all my chips in the middle and call a bluff if I saw a man talk that way

  8. Israel is not following international because USA covering their crimes, where is the evidence?

  9. Looks like our government is a slave of Israel !!! Such a shame !!!

  10. They are on the side of Hamas anyway! That’s all you get out of the White House people is yimmer yammer! Nobody can answer a Street question! It would be against the law in their mind! When they go face, God, they’re gonna find out how wrong they are!

  11. Oh, you’re not playing judge and jury? So, why aren’t the people Gaza being backed by the US???????? We are staying so neutral…. And all.

    Fumble F^ck clearly doesn’t understand the term he is using to deflect.

  12. He basically saying no they are not
    That indeed they’re out for revenge

  13. Same question.

    U hv gutts to question arabs?
    Hamas terrorists?
    Idf is fighting for saftey of entire world

  14. So many people love Hammas

  15. He can’t pass judgement on everything Israel does, he can only say to his knowledge Isreal is following international laws

  16. Oh there’s Kristen Welker with her prop pen . This woman is a Marxist drone . She’s like her Comradrs is nit really interested in the news .

  17. These people have no integrity and will sit there and lie to America.

  18. Funny no ones talking about the war crimes Hamas has commited

  19. The Zionist masters are exerting great pressure on American politicians not to say anything against Israel even though it’s committing genocide and apartheid. But the world sees and knows the truth

  20. Did Hamas follow International Law? Where is the outcry against Hamas and what they did to start this crap that we have to deal with now? And, I might add, that we have to deal with all over the world. Get rid of the terrorism. Ms – whatever your name is – get a grip on reality. Do you want terrorism in your neighborhood? …because Hamas et al say it's their goal. Is that what you want?

  21. No one is following International law. No one ever does no matter the war.

  22. Israel is COMMITING INTERNATIONAL WAR CRIMES.
    They only follow their OWN laws. No one else's.

  23. What he's doing is worse than simply answering with an yes or no.

  24. Following the law for war?, why?, when you win who cares?
