Imagine committing war crime and then investigating yourself
Not the first time
@ncw9484 Yeah, this is saying to us all that someone may be suspect of crimes and we will let them investigate the crimes themselves in order for them to prove whether they are guilty of it or not. We all see this is lunacy and we all see the Israeli government getting away with multiple crimes on a daily basis for half of a year.
Americans can't be tried for war crimes, they never signed up to the ICC!!
remove veto from all super power
@@robust5615 not gonna happen
Kirbys a joke. This administration is a joke.
I am sick of them
Kirbys shouldn’t have this job in the first place, he is too tight for this articulating duty.
Rev 3:9
Every American administration has and will be a joke.
Usa is the criminal chief
Seriously how is it possible that the one who commits the crime is the one who investigates it?
That’s Israel and the IDF for you.
Yep, only in Israël. Analyze and discuss!!!🤫
The CIA has done that for every high profile assassination/"suicide" that's occurred for the last century
Israel killed 34 american sailors in USS Liberty incident & escaped from it.
The mentality of US government officials. So do not have any kind of relation with them. Let us openly support BRICS and seek help from them.
Imagine Nazis were asked to investigate if there were any genocide.
Exactly, why did we have the Nuremberg Trials? Couldn't Goebbels have just investigated himself?
Well, that's kinda what Kirby is saying is taking place if you think about it.
You see the difference is motive
@@abduabde-vn8ms I see no difference. The motive is genocide.
@@abduabde-vn8ms motive is the aame tho... opress and destroy a people
Kirby clown show .
lol, let them investigate it themselves and see what they "make up"
Kirby’s Dreamland
Honestly, if you had his job, would you say anything different?
@@canitbethatWOULD you is not the question you should be asking. Could you? The puppet masters make transparency, honesty and integrity impossible. How else can self serving liars survive.
US government is owned 🤫
How many "mistakes" have they made?, mistakes in aid workers, 2000 bombs on refugee camps, shooting their own hostages, wiping out ambulances, starving people trying to get to food on a truck etc etc
Oh, about 75+ years of mistakes.
Let us not forget the ‘accidental’ USS Liberty back in 1967 where Israeli government killed our American soldiers.
@@MissKAllDayyeah I remember that. There’s a good documentary about that.
@@MissKAllDay need to look into that one 👊. Just remembered another accident too, they stuck an Egyptian security post within Egypt quite early on in this so-called "war"... Also the Belgian embassy ... Hundreds of reporters including all their family members one by one targeted, women sheltering in the church, destruction of graveyards. Also not to mention the death of hundreds of children reported to have single shots 😥
OCTOBER 7
Idf commited only 32000 mistakes !
IDF doesn't like the word mistakes, kirby says it's an error. because these devils doesn't make mistakes
Kirby he is not defending IDF, he defends his administration who is involved heavily into Israel war Crimes, committed daily.
No need to defend his administration if he tells truth avout Israel's genocide. Basically, he is defending Israel.not adminiateation. They don't care about american people who will eventually be called genocide supporters. Nobody will remember about Kirby or other administration staff but country.
One hand washes the other
Imagine being killed by a missile from your own nation while working abroad, trying to help humanity. Despicable.
With the missile made from your tax money

Mistake was the UN recognizing a certain state in 1948
Hear hear!
That's about when UN too was formed by them for their protection and support.
@1arjamy now, the UN is useless to them, and they want it dismantled.
100 percent @1arjamy
100%
How humiliating must it feel like to defend someone who has just intentionally massacred aid workers with your own weapons and not have the courage to say there will be accountability..
You must have been there and witnessed it, didn't you? 😅
He's acting like he's insulted for being questioned at all. Not all of us are psychos, Kirby. That's why we have questions.
it was not a mistake. It is absolutely disgusting that anyone can still support this administration.
Since their founding, both the US and Israel have been rogue states. For them, genocide is elemental.
Im more surprised that USA government and political party is so rotten to the core yet no one try changing for better government body come one USA citizens is this what you want?
The opening Salvo of the last Lebanon conflict began with marked and internationally recognized UN observation post being targeted. WE DON’T BELIEVE YOU ANYMORE IDF...
NOT A MISTAKE PERIOD!!!
Not only that it's not a mistake, Israeli officials are deliberately trying to see how far they can go before the US stops them. They've also bombed the Iranian embassy in Syria. Their leadership is unhinged behaving like a rogue state, destroying any remaining foundations of US foreign policy in the Middle East. Their selfish delusional desires are hurting American interests in the region and the Biden Administration is doing nothing about it!
We are going to remember John Kirby as someone who basically spent six months of his life advocating genocide and defending the indefensible.
He and Biden provide endless aid to Israel but stopped all aid to Ukraine as of October 2023.
The "genocide" was done by Hamas. Israel is just responding, in an effort to defend their very existence.
Russians did same in Syria and called it Double Tap but with US/Israel is called Triple Tap.
@@keksi6844justification at it’s best 🤡
Russia in Syria never took out western air workers jus sayin'
We investigated ourselves, and found we did nothing wrong. Why is this still an ok thing to do. You dont get to investigate yourself wtf
Mr. Kirby's name will be permanently imprinted in the history as the greatest hypocrite....
Hi folk's, I'm finding it hard to listen to this Kirby, he should be in front of the Hague!
Agree but since US law prohibit any American to even be tried by ICC we would have troops invade Hague.
For what? Holding a press briefing isn't a war crime. 😆
In front of the Hague for saying he wanted to wait for the results of the investigation before taking a position? Is there an international law against that? :-)
@@MrCuttysark1982😂😂neither is being brain dead 😂😂
@@MrCuttysark1982 They are the mouthpieces for an administration that is complicit in war crimes. That makes them complicit.
Wow, how does Kirby say what he does with a straight face. This administration has lost ALL credibility.
Two word Answer : Uses Drugs!
10 years in bullshit education
One would have to have credibility in order to lose it
Not a straight face you can almost tell he is smiling its despicable
I would like to point out that his face is never straight... look at him.
Evil supports Evil
Kirby is a coward, not man enough to tell the truth, to say things how they are. If this was a russian air strike, we wouldn't have had any discussion.
Outstanding question. A true journalist.
Too bad we didn't get an answer, but cucumber ranch dressing would help Kirbys salad.
He forgot to mention how they had coordinated with Israel before going in to Gaza. It wasn't a mistake it's so obviously not a mistake. The Fact US is letting them get away with it is embarrassing but it's only going to embolden Israel even more because they know US and International community isn't going to do anything.
A journalist who didn't know the strike was at night? A journalist who doesn't know the roof signs aren't going to be detected by IR imaging? Riiiight. Quality journalism.
@@IHLWonkbut isrehell has to strike every moving car in route that they themselves said aid works to go and even the aid works let them know where they were at, in the route, shut it with your crap bot
@@IHLWonk So is the "elite" IDF in the habit of killing anyone without properly identifying the targets? Using that excuse you mentioned just show you are just as callous as the IDF. Perhaps you are one of them yourself? Also, the aid group had already coordinated with the IDF before hand, and was give the "ALL CLEAR" by the IDF. Now what other excuses do you have, MATE?
Not even a condemnation by Kirby. Stop the horrors. Stop the funding.
stop the genocide
@@Ganpignanus Stop Hamas
Stop the genocide
What are talking about?What condemnation? Kirby is a spox, how can he issue condemnations?
@@Ganpignanus Yeah? Then talk to Hamas!!
It's like allowing me to investigate my own crime .
An international investigation from Haga will defenately prove "Their" crimes.
Makes me sick.
B-O-O H-O-O
@@Gilbert-cd9rt Spotted the jew
@@mistersinister2043 Cry about it.
These are evil people.
@@Gilbert-cd9rtWow, you didnt even bother trying to defend yourself by projecting anymore? looks like the mask is off now?
"Give us time to investigate," means "Give us time to come up with a lie, any lie."
Actually it’s worse, it means “Shut up and stop talking about it. Let’s all just stick our fingers in our ears and ignore it till we all forget.”
The whole Establishment is defunct and run by criminals, can you imagine Hitler getting away scott-free with the Holocaust? Yet here, it is a very real possibility we are seeing before our eyes!
@celestialknight2339 True!! Man. I remember when W would talk, and how he sounded like an idiot. Then I realized that he was actually talking to us like WE were idiots. Now we have an administration who has topped that by talking to us like we're not just idiots but actually brain dead.
Stop AIPAC!
“It is not a mistake it is an error” What an embarrassment he is.
So American policy towards them is “Let the criminals investigate themselves” - Bravo White House
Thats what they do in Washington right now , Biden is a criminal too.
That worked well with Germany, that's why we have the Hague and Geneva convention, did Israel blow up their embassy?! Like ours got blown up in 98?! Provocation?!
Remember The 1972 Olympics in Munich..
American policy towards America is the same 🙄
Okay but Israel isnt America. @avacigar5502
Kirby owns by Israel and AIPAC, he doesn’t speak for USA but for Israel
Absolutely . 😢
They always "investigate" and nothing ever happens.
Kirby is a war criminal and needs to stand trial at The Hague.
Defending a genocide will what that man will be remembered for his grandchildren will be so ashamed
It’s america we defended genocide of natives
I think that on a daily basis, so much evidence, for all the world to see, of his lies and hypocrisy.
@@user-em3vl6li5whe needlessly defend them when they are hunkering down in shame.
Don’t forget the Armenian Genocide and presidents that did not and would not acknowledge it
The 🤡 show continues
Russia did same thing in Syria.They called it Double Tap.
Have you tried the new Trump Magat sandwich yet? Two slices of white bread, a slice of baloney and a small pickle. It's delicious!
Wait, wait, so this isn't SNL? Oh help us baby Jesus...
This reporter has never been in war! Clueless!
neither have you if you determine deliberate targeting of aid workers as standard war practise@@lawrencedobesh776
To the families of those working to help relieve, even momentarily, the heartbreaking carnage the world is witnessing, we are so very sorry for your loss. Those who worked with the WCK are true heroes, their bravery will be remembered. On behalf of billions around the planet, we send our deepest condolences for your loss. We will remember and we are deeply sorry.
One question how much Kirby is paid for standing up lying, advocating genocide and defending. Letting the criminals investigate their own genocide crimes.
he is agitated!!! for God sake SEVEN AID WORKERS just been killed & he is agitated to recieve questions!
Remember the little girl who called for the ambulance after her family members were killed in the same car she was it? Remember how the ambulance drivers gave the IDF their coordinates and told them that they were going out to rescue that girl? How did that turn out?
@@francisgilbert6982 hind rajab
Anybody remember aid workers deploying to Berlin or Nagaski?
He's probably just constipated lol
Washington DC is occupied by a foreign power.
why is he smiling when people are dying
Because it makes him happy
Don't you just hate that? Why do they feel they have to smile all the time?? Genocide going on and they are smiling??? It is sickening!!
Smiling and laughing like he is talking about the Easter egg roll. Disgusting.
Because it all lies 😂😂
PM of Israel did the same. Smile as he was giving good news. Sick.
IDF: We have conducted our investigation we have determined it was KHAMAS
Why this administration keeps defending indefensible? It’s insane.
It's murder. The point is to discourage aid.
Seens to be happening alot. Ethnic cleansing is happening before our very eyes .
It goes like this "After a thorough investigation on my actions, I have found myself not guilty of any war crimes."
I read what Kirby mind during the session, " He said, who told them to go there and why they go there". this man is sick
Excuses, excuses and even more excuses for justifying state sponsored terror!
Great idea. Let criminals investigate their own crimes.
Let's wait for an investigation...did you say UNRWA? Oh no, defund them immediately...Is Kirby OK?
This was intentional. Israel is trying to stop people from helping Gaza.
@@timchamberlin9280thanks, captain obvious! Yeah it's, going to be investigated until there are new atrocities to make the public forget this one.
Let's wait for the cover-up, I mean, the "investigation."
@@timchamberlin9280 BS! Israel is trying to defend their very existence. If Gaza didn't want this carnage, then they shouldn't have been constantly bombing Israel, and then having a massacre of innocent of Israeli people. This is all on Hamas. Gazans voted to have Hamas as their government. So this is all on them.
@@mugs8306 Then why are the IDF deliberately targeting NGO relief workers? Relief workers from an organization Israel previously had nothing but nice things to say about, who had complied with all requirements to get aid into a warzone, and who were all from Western nations?
Kirby is a joke.
"Whoever might be responsible." Yeah, pretty tough question. Needs more investigation. Who could it be? 🤔
There are real monsters in this world, and they wear suits.
As children we feared monsters and were sure they were under the bed. Imagine the shock!
Damn Satanyahu !!
Disgusting and disgraceful! Kirby is basically saying "let the murderers investigate themselves," and we'll go with whatever lie that sticks! That's the running theme.
“We are investigating how to lie about this so be patient while we come up with the lie please”
All the other investigations we haven’t heard the results from
Does not sound like an accident to me.
If Kirby is talking.... you are hearing lies.
USA has no spine.
You got that wrong. It's the rest of the world that doesn't USA is in FULL SUPPORT of Israel actions. They just pretend not to be so as to not offend the sheep at home
Nope
Globalist regime is up to no good
Where's yours?
@@RC-fi4ixwe see you Shedim
This journalist should be outraged and walk out. This is a clown show.
They did the same thing to the USS Liberty too, accountability measures need to be taken
AIPAC plain and simple.
Like you waited on the investigation of UNWRA?
Double standards is a running theme with these people.
Israel still couldn’t provide evidence but we cut UNWRA funding just based on Israeli claims.
Why is this not pinned?
Kirby is criminal
I have personally conducted a thorough investigation into my many crimes, and I am completely innocent.
When the war is over Kirbys defence will be: "I was just following the Presidents orders"
from his prison cell
Kirby should be arrested if he ever steps in the UK, as an accessory after the fact.
Guys - let’s wait for the killer to investigate the crime and we trust that Justice will be served. How stupid
Respect to the reporter.
This guy swims in his own lies!
it amazes me how ANYTHING and EVERYTHING the idf does are justified by these hacks
Kirby is a Pathetic liar and he knows it.. But he keeps LYING..
The Israelis admitted that the killing of an American journalist was their bad, but... nobody got in trouble. Folks, that's accountability in the midst of our incredibly "special" relationship.
Mistake my ass
more like a message
I feel like throwing up when I hear these bandits.
they think they are getting away with these silly responses. They won't!
What part of let the criminal investigate their own murder scene don’t you understand. They will tell us what they want us to know later.
Yes why you want to place your Nose near international issues all the time, let them work in Peace, To solved.
@@JohnnyMontana-si5fu IDF working overtime today responding to all these comments. If you guys have the money to spend on 10000 people responding to criticism maybe you don't need US money.
🤣
@@ABunny666facts
I could not be more disgusted with my own government with my party in charge
Reporter is talking to IDF Defence Lawyer not US Official..
If you catch someone comiting a crime, do you ask that very person to investigate himself and then wait for his investigation?
Israel investigates Israel! What a joke this is!
Why dont they let n a z i investigate hol o caus t in the past?
War saw ghet to could be a mistake
Israel does not make mistakes with these killings. They are very deliberate. Israel does not want ANY aid to reach Gazans, they want to force all of them out and they want all aid organizations to leave.
The first time in history we witnessed "an accident" happen three times in a row
“Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now,” - US Solider and Fellow Human Aaron Bushnell
Defence Minister Gallant promised that there would be “ NO FOOD,NO WATER.” for Gaza. The Israeli Offence Force was just carrying out his orders . NO MISTAKE, NO ERROR !
Bunch of jokers in white house
exactly 💯
Never no answers but wait till an investigation friggin joke who they kidding
Where is the UNRWA investigation and evidences ?
Ironic that Israel is acting like Nazis 😈
Well this one time nethanyahu defend Hitler
They ARE nazis....
The abused has become the abuser. Basically psychology
As a matter of fact, this should not surprise anyone who has read between the lines/ behind the scenes of 20th century history.
Can you imagine murdering someone and then you get to investigate the murder!!! Would you then find yourself guilty??
“If you don’t like the word mistake, we’ll say error”…this from Kirby referring to the killing of the aid workers. Their psychopathology should preclude them from federal office.
"Possible mistake????" Howthehell did Kirby ever earn his Admiral stars/epaulets? Knee pads?!?!???
I would think this is his favorite position - and more serious stuff. He is just the type.
You forgot to include his elbow pads for the contortionist show.
Can you say Admiral Levine??
HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN surrounded by seamen …
internet
Bravo!
They did that to Mavi Marmara aid ship They attacked and killed 9 volunteers. Then again they did not want anybody to bring aid to Gaza back then. Nothing happened and they blamed the people who were bringing aid.
That should have read: de rigueur.
Achile Lauro much worse but you selectively omit. 9/11, 10/7, plane hijackings, suicide bombings, and long long list more. But you've no shame. And clueless they are out for infidels to submit.
@niveax6112 Thank you for the information. I looked it up.... wow, this has been going on for a long time! I am shocked at how little I knew of the world until Oct. 7th, 2023. I am sure there are millions of other things that I am totally ignorant of too..... I hope this time, the Palestine people can have a sovereign country that is safe from harm!
@@AhJodielook up “Noahide Law” and how it got passed with only 4 dual-citizens of Israel voting on it!
It's revolting watching our leaders condoning this depravity.
IOF mafia has the right to defend itself from the aid workers.
Did he just say if there is a need for criminal investigation wow says a lot
"lets just sweep this under the rug" with a pretty please smile.
Remember USS Liberty in 1967. That strike was deliberate too.
Great question
I do not understand why we need to post civilised statements when such uncivilised actions are being carried out without regard to the rest. The term "respect applies, too.
We need to immediately stop aide to Israel!!!!
Yes!
Wait? Is real journalism coming back?
I FEEL SORRY FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THEY ARE RULLED FROM FOREIGNERS AND NOT FROM AMERICANS..
TRhat arrogant smirk on Kirby's face when he is lying just priceless.. The AIPAC owns him soooo much..
