Yes, Israel did a "good" job by rendering all the rest non functional while also arguing that their war effort has nothing to do with genocide.

I mean they started the attack on UNRWA, destroyed how many hospitals using the pretext they were command and operative centres of Hamas, without providing any definitive proof for their claims.

They have a proven track record of killing paramedics sent to rescue people from the rubble, and killed the biggest number of journalists in modern history. Very conveniently I would say. And foreign journalists are not allowed in Gaza, I wonder why...

And foreign journalists are not allowed in Gaza, I wonder why…

Because they don't want foreign news agencies reporting about their journalists being killed!!

oops, I said their "quite part" out loud.

I think the people downvoting this are mistaking it for endorsement of the silencing of journalists, though a closer reading would indicate that it's pointing it out as a BAD thing that's happening..

Yeah thats how I read it, that its a bad thing

I have a better Idea. If you don't want foreign agencies reporting about their journalist being killed, just don't kill them.

There, I also said the "quite part" out loud.

but if they don't die then they'll report the crimes against humanity

Dr. Mohammed Harara is one of five doctors remaining at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis. The collapsing medical facility, surrounded by the Israeli military, is home to 850 patients and thousands of displaced civilians. When Harara is not treating patients, he lives in a small tent on the hospital's grounds.

Useful idiots keep saying there "aren't any good guys" in all this. Well this is what a good guy looks like.

When will the rest of the world wake up and take action? This is one of the most hideous atrocities and all that the current Israeli leadership need to say is "Hamas", usually without proof.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Doesn't look like the IDF apologists have gotten to this post to deflect blame away from the genocidal apartheid regime that is the Israeli government yet.. Probably only a matter of time, though 😮‍💨

[–] Jamil@lemm.ee 7 points 9 months ago

All the hospitals are Kkkhamas command centres. They even admit to performing 'operations'!

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Israel is a failed state currently being run by a terrorist organization that's carrying out a genocide.

I'm so fucking tired of calling the spade anything other than a spade.

[–] Diotima@kbin.social 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Someone should tell Netanyahu that the list of human rights atrocities isn't a fucking pokedex. You're not supposed to collect them all.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Then someone should do something else to him.

[–] Diotima@kbin.social 4 points 9 months ago

I am 100% not taking that one for the team thanks.

Last standing hospital

Israel: "hold my rocket"

Jokes aside, he has to be the most exhausted human being on the planet right now.
