Cut the crap on the "civilized" world farce. If there was any decency the israeli onslaught would be punished. Instead these countries stand by them and do nothing.

Civilised doesn't have to mean flawless. The US is still a horribly barbaric country, and the weapons Israel use to commit genocide come from the US.

Many of the countries in question don't have a military presence that could dwarf the others, nor an army that would willingly fight larger enemies for those morals.

Obviously, I'm not including America in that statement.

You're correct but there is much that can be done without military intervention. The least these nations could have done is a weapons embargo and sanctions. Many other diplomatic levers that can be used but aren't.
