I posted earlier this morning of how the Israelis have attacked healthcare facilities over 100 times according to the UN. So their defence that they don't attack healthcare is bs. And mark reger can climb back under the rock he seems to have recently crawled out of.

It's unfortunately a common occurrence.

Wow. What an impressive kid. Bless her.

She has my vote undying support for PM general secretary of the communist party of the soviet union.

It's pretty convenient for Israel that whenever they commit some atrocity, they can just point towards Hamas or another militant group and say they did it, and the western media and politicians will mostly just lap it up.

 

[moses]

Western people still identify with Israel and wouldn't like to believe this is the side they've supported for years.

Some western people and most western governments. I've been detained by the police protesting in defence of Palestine.

He has to considering the labour party is all but disintegrating over this conflict.

We found out last night, before the coward Lee Harpin deleted it, that the party considers such people 'fleas'. They'll be delighted with that letter from Muslim members and councillors saying they've lost confidence in Starmer.

 

[Port Vale Devil]

Hamas and Israel government are both scum, feck them both. Spoilers or not I just can’t comprehend people trawling images of dead children on twitter to post on here.

 

[DavelinaJolie]

Whomever caused the destruction of that hospital and the deaths and suffering of those within it are beyond hope. Disgusting. I hope they are made to pay.

I've found myself becoming increasingly desensitised to what has been occurring this last week and a bit, but seeing some of what was posted above has shaken me.

Like they lapped up the death of Shireen Abu Akleh?

The admission came after investigations conducted by international news outlets, including The New York Times and The Washington Post concluded that she was killed by Israeli forces, with CNN finding that her death was the result of a targeted Israeli killing.

Interesting language used.

Just trying to change his language after lots of criticism this week with his comment. I was inclined to voting to for labour but I am considering all my options right now.

Haven't seen anyone lapping it up for the time being.
The evidence is inconclusive and people (and politicians, and countries) will all but assume it was an Israeli job.
look at the call from the UN to hold a meeting of its security council.
Never would have happened if anyone thought it was Hamas' own feck-up, or the Islamic Jihad for that matter.
Look at the reaction from the Saudis or Keir what's-his-name.

Look at the reaction of almost everyone here.

There's no room in people's minds for the possibility that it might not have been Israel after all.
Just like many people couldn't consider that the beheaded-babies story was made up.
I bet there are still many many folks that'll swear Hamas has done that.

The truth isn't always the most important thing. We are all biased and emotional.

Fair enough, the media sometimes does it's job, and I shouldn't post half-baked thoughts before something more concrete has been presented.

I actually think that it's a possibility. Right now I don't who did it but the IDF spokeperson comments put doubts in my mind, I don't see why he didn't immediately rule out IDF, the only logical reason would be that they were doing something in that area at that moment.

@ScholesyTheWise

I am coming across a decent Channel 13 tweets & news. What type, if any, of bias does this channel have?

 

[TMDaines]

More OSINT analysts suggesting the hospital attack was a malfunctioning rocket from Palestine.

I also think it's a possibility but you and I don't matter in the grand scheme of things.
Countries and politicians were, are, and always will be very quick to choose sides on this conflict almost regardless of what happens out there.

I'm curious why the blast was so devastating though.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shireen_Abu_Akleh

Who lapped up her death?

They admitted they did it after a long drawn out avoidance - they blamed militants, then it was being in the cross fire, then they blocked any/all investigation, then they wouldn’t give the bullet for analysis… it was a very long drawn out affair before they admitted that they murdered her…and still no justice for Abu Aklehs family.

 

[moses]

Density of people.

I have no idea who fired it but the video I've seen was not of a large bomb. The explosion wasnt big enough and they dont burn like that. It was something smaller that has hit something flammable like a fuel tank.

I always vote labour but his Israel stance will mean I look elsewhere for sure.

The Israeli TV Channel 13? Do they have a Twitter page?
broadly speaking, Channels 12 and 13 would lean towards criticizing this government but are overwhelmingly pro-Israel regarding this war.
There's not a single TV channel in Israel that will give any thought to innocent Palestinians at the moment, from what I've seen.
It's a war on our home, on our lives, and our existence, this is the narrative.

Don't ever look at Channel 14. For them, Bibi is a saint, the 8th wonder of the world. those who oppose him are treasurous leftists who should be hanged.

Any links?

Any links?

GeoConfirmed, OAlexanderDK and The Intel Crab.

 

[Cloudface]

Secondary explosion? Something with a bit more explosive potential in the area might have been hit. Fuel or gas cylinders maybe. Add that to the density of people in the area and it's going to be grim. If true of course.

Yes, this is a possibility that will be overlooked by many, surely. who knows.

The we need proof of beheadings crowd sure believed hamas claims real fast

Don’t know if they have a page, but I’ve probably seen the most ‘attributed to’ articles & interviews to them. Just heard them mentioned a couple of times in the same segment on MSNBC & that spurred me to ask you.

Thanks!

I really dislike that I have no idea how reliable 99% of the tweets posted in this thread are. They could be true, they could be from biased accounts, they could be deliberate lies, they could be the opinions of some random idiot who hasn't a clue what he's talking about but tries to sound like he does on twitter.

 

[space]

Considering Israel has changed its story about 5 times already and is following the typical playbook anyone who doesn’t believe they done this strike is a fecking idiot.

Also, the image of the doctors holding the press conference is one of the most haunting images I have ever seen, may Palestine be free

Please can people check through the fecking sources they're posting. This guy is clearly an alt-right neo-Nazi. This forum can manage fecking transfer rumours better than it can real world stuff.

At this point it seems ludicrous to accuse any one side of selectively believing reports that suit them, as if there isn't abundant examples of the reverse.

If there's no room for opinions different than yours, what's the point of this thread exactly?

Yeah.
Quite agonizing how Twitter is the go-to for everyone, while the stuff that's posted there is so easily manipulated...
