Al Jazeera: UNRWAn rahoituksen katkaiseminen voi rikkoa kansainvälistä sopimusta kansanmurhasta

Suomi on ministeri Tavion yksipuolisella päätöksellä nyt yksi yhdeksästä maasta, jotka ovat katkaisseet tukensa UNRWAlle eli YK:n palestiinalaisten avustusjärjestölle.

Kansainvälisen lain asianajaja ja YK:n palestiinalaisasioiden erityisasiantuntija Francesca Albanesen mukaan tämä saattaa rikkoa kansainvälistä sopimusta kansanmurhien ehkäisystä vain päivää sen jälkeen, kun ICJ, eli YK:n korkein oikeus, velvoitti Israelin lopettamaan välittömästi kaikki kansanmurhaan johtavat toimet. Huomattavaa on myös se, että ICJ korosti lausunnossaan myös sitä, että Israelin on päästettävä apua Gazaan.

Avun estäminen rikkoo kansainvälistä oikeutta ja Israelin velvotteita. Mutta mitäs, jos avun tarjoajilta loppuu resurssit auttaa...?

Israel on tähän mennessä syyttänyt muun muassa Punaista Ristiä, Punaista Puolikuuta, Maailman terveysjärjestöä WHOta, koko YK:ta sekä esim. Etelä-Afrikkaa joko Hamasin tukemisesta tai Hamasin jäsenyydestä. Kaikki ilman mitään todisteita tai pohjaa. Israelilla ja Yhdysvalloilla ei ole toistaiseksi mitään todisteita siitä, että UNRWAn työntekijät olisivat osallistuneet Hamasin toteuttamaan iskuun lokakuussa. Tästä huolimatta pelkät syytökset ovat saaneet yhdeksän maata katkaisemaan rahoituksensa avustusjärjestölle, joka on tällä hetkellä palestiinalaisille se kaikista tärkein avun lähde.

Suomi on yksi niistä maista, joka nyt kollektiivisesti rankaisee miljoonia palestiinalaisia siitä, että on mahdollista, että 12 UNWRAn työntekijää on ehkä saattanut osallistua lokakuun iskuun jollain tavalla.

Kollektiivinen rankaiseminen on sotarikos.

Huomionarvoista on myös se, että etäiset ja vailla todisteita olevat syytökset riittivät Suomen hallitukselle perusteeksi katkaista palestiinalaisten auttaminen. Sen sijaan YK:n korkeimman oikeuden toteamus siitä, että Israel saattaa hyvinkin syyllistyä kansanmurhaan, ja että Etelä-Afrikalla on perusteet syyttää Israelia kansanmurhasta, ei riitä perusteeksi perua asekauppoja Israelin kanssa.

Suomi rahoittaa kansanmurhaa.

#finland is so fucking pathetic for doing this shit #but well what can we expect when the current government has literal fascists in here

Y'know looking back on my time in the NSR fandom it's weird how victimized people tend to make the NSR elites, which I really don't think is warranted beyond Sayu's team and Yinu who are MINORS that were employed into a fascist government system under the guise of success. Yes, NSR was a fascist government, or at the very least an authoritarian hand over a dystopian society.

Even if its general tone is light-hearted and silly, the game tackles themes of propaganda, scapegoating, wealth inequality and planned obsolescence, environmental destruction, media control, saving face for tourists, authoritative voting and more, yet most of them aren't the player's main gameplay focus; a lot of lore and context clues are in the background like the town's layout, interacting with certain objects and talking to NPCs. But those themes are a core message of the game and by only treating the members of NSR as regular old musicians you take out all the nuance.

(Plenty more under the cut. TL;DR: No Straight Roads is a relevantly socio-political game and I wish fans would utilize that side of the characters more)

Both halves of the "music war" as I'm gonna call it for lack of an official term had their faults, and I do like that there is no 100% right or wrong side; no straight road, if you will. BUT ALSO. BBJ realized the entire city was suffering in some way under NSR's leadership and had nothing to lose by challenging the status quo (they literally live in a fucking sewer, I'd be full of rage too). They didn't benefit from initial fame, wealth, or military protection like NSR did; not to mention they were also egged on and decieved by one of their closest allies. When voices don't work ala DK West's attempt, then you turn to action. Action can include smacking the shit out of government officials, as a treat (I enjoyed every second trying to get an S rank in Supernova's level <3)

On that note, the woobification is ESPECIALLY bad with DJSS, Neon J and 1010. I love the silly object heads and smexy robots as much as anyone else but they are specifically meant to be critiques of self-absorbed billionaires (sorry to tell DJSS fans this but he's supposed to be Elon-Musk-adjacent) and the k-pop industry with its military involvement, plus the use of militial force to keep rowdy citizens in line. I'm begging people to PLEASE handle them with more care.

Thankfully, it's clear that NSR reduces its chokehold by the end of the game and all the artists put in a lot of work to improve thanks to BBJ's push. Whether the game's writers made that decision to appeal to their own government's approval or was a genuine end to the story, I like that Tatiana has a moment of reflection and does a complete 180 to make the city better in the end (beyond the threat of the city being destroyed ofc). Even if it's unrealistic, it's a hopeful message and shows that anyone can be corrupted by the right circumstances.

Just PLEASE don't forget the characters' actions and choices along the way for the sake of ship fics and cute art. There's a lot of complexity and angst you can add to the characters with that authoritarian history!

#NSR #YES THIS!!!!👆🏻 #I've actually been stewing an AU in my head where the NSR elites are all like REALLY evil and not just you know... silly evil #so far I've only nailed down Nova's and Neon J's characters (because I practice favouritism) #and YES! Nova is definitely Elon Musk incarnate; 'look at me! I'm smarter than everyone and will take humanity to space! Please worship me! #Neon J on the other hand is a paranoid militaristic warmongerer who romanticises the navy #insert 'In The Navy' here #he's like every patriotic far-right military state governmental official #'why would I waste my money on children's hospitals when I need to prepare this country for an upcoming war?!' (spoilers: there's no war) #Nova the charismatic bastard would also be able to convince him of building a space armada for them; because Neon J is just THAT paranoid #Nova is basically some space cult leader who mainly uses people's discontentment to his own advantage and to further his agenda

Neon J: "Eugh! I can't dance to this music. It's garbage!"

DJSS: "... I've once seen you dance to the chirping of a smoke alarm because — and I quote you —'the beat was fire'."

This year is coming to an end and I'm still squeezing silly and crappy NSR meme-drawings from my old sketchbook into it before it does. (They may look like the teacher's copies when it comes to picture quality, but hey I'm literally taking these with my phone and using the kitchen sink's light).

I just started writing a Jedtavius fanfic. I really hope I could finish this one, because I feel like I have a good idea.

It probably won't be finished this year, but I'll try my best!

#omg!!!❤ #I started several jedtavius fics this year and finished none (the drafts are safe though) #they're written in finnish because I wanted to explore the bounds and possibilities of it #also I personally like finnish and enjoy localised translations #for example 'skedaddle' would translate into 'lähteä käpälämäkeen/alkaa kalppia' I think #if you ever wanna talk about your fic or share snippets then I'm all ears #jedtavius
