The war crimes (in Gaza) continue

Not as long as Israel isn't done killing, kidnapping,
torturing, oppressing, & starving Palestinians.
You seem all too willing to accept Hamas propaganda and believe hate-filled, false accusations against Israel.



“Hamas, apparently, does not want food or medication to reach the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip, particularly not via Israeli border crossings. This situation is most likely caused by Hamas's desire to prolong and aggravate the suffering of the Palestinians and create a "famine" so it can place the blame on Israel. This plan, in fact, seems to be why Hamas terrorists have been firing rockets at the Kerem Shalom border crossing between the Gaza Strip and Israel.

The assassination of the Abu Amra clan member and the theft of humanitarian aid are only a few of the Hamas atrocities that are often "overlooked" by the mainstream media and those in the West who describe themselves as "pro-Palestinian."

Additionally, there is almost no discussion in the media or among "pro-Palestinian" individuals and groups of Hamas's use of Palestinians as human shields in its Jihad (holy war) against Israel. Since the beginning of the war, Hamas terrorists have been firing at Israeli troops from Palestinians' rooftops, bedrooms, kitchens, backyards, balconies, schools, hospitals, kindergartens and even the displaced families' tent camps.

"Why is the media ignoring what is going on in central and southern Gaza?" askedHamza Howidy, a Palestinian social media influencer from the Gaza Strip. "Hamas is assassinating Gazans, particularly tribe leaders, in order to deter anyone other than Hamas from delivering humanitarian relief and participating in Gaza."

Howidy's question has an easy answer: When Israel is not involved, the media turns a blind eye. Foreign journalists apparently do not care when Hamas drags Palestinians into the streets and executes them in cold blood. These journalists, it appears, do not think it is worth covering such stories because Israel is not at fault.”

What you call "propaganda", I call news, eg, from
NPR, Wa Po, Times of Israel. If you deny all the
wrongful death & destruction at the hands of Israel,
this bespeaks partisan blindness.

The media seems, for the most part, to have tired of this ongoing crisis?


"At least 25 people were killed and more than 50 injured on Tuesday in a strike on a school building being used as a shelter by displaced people in the town of Abassan, outside of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza, local health officials said.

Gazan officials blamed Israeli forces for the attack. Israeli military officials did not immediately respond to questions about the strike."

The above is behind a paywall. But:




Shame on the Israeli government.

While the rest of the world is focusing on the attempt at Trump's life, the war crimes continue. Apparently, the IDF/Bibi think that it is ok to kill any number of civilians, if they can kill one member of Hamas.




If find it interesting and sad, but not surprising, that everyone seems to have moved on from this tragedy.

No war crimes by Hamas?

Media War fatigue is to be expected.
Honestly it's rare I see much about Ukraine outside of the weekly Guardian, unless it's one of the weird pro-Russia RF threads.

Yes, war crimes by Hamas! It's day 283 since a truce was shattered by a barbaric Hamas triggered pogrom and there are still 120 hostages (43 declared dead) while explosive ordinances continue to seek out civilian targets in Israel. That cannot be overstated.

But nor should it serve to deflect criticism of what has every appearance of an egregious disregard of collateral damage on the part of the Israeli military.

Not to defend that latter at times, but dealing with the 350 miles of tunnels often located in crowded areas largely created this situation. Many are deep and supported enough to withstand all but the 2000+ pound bombs. Booby traps also make going into a structure untenable. It's terrible, I know, but Hamas could end this.

Hamas is the instigator of war crimes. The use of human shields is forbidden by Protocol I of the Geneva Conventions and is considered a war crime as well as a violation of humanitarian law. They do so and precipitate the deaths of innocent civilians.

The hits just keep on coming...



Bibi should have been arrested while in the US the other day when he was here to spew his propaganda to Congress.

Shame on our government for hosting the war criminal.
