- Thread starter Greenbag50
- Start date
Are you suggesting that the UN are wrong and that thousands of women and children haven't been killed by Israel ?

The quote from the Hamas Health Authority (the only administrative health authority other than the UN in Gaza) - is of course biased but it does not mean the number of deaths are being falsified necessarily - that is why the quote is in inverted commas but you may be interested in how the deaths in Gaza are counted
How the dead are counted in Gaza
The BBC has been looking in detail at how the casualty figures are totalled.

I have posted umpteen posts on this thread with links to a broad cross section of sources so it is a bit disingenuous to imply I am biased tbh - The X post is from the Chief of Communication for the United Nations Children’s Fund
James Elder - ABC News

If you can find any updated numbers from the IDF, please post them - all I could find were an amended figure for those killed in the attack on 7/11.

It’s feeling really desperate now. I’m finding it almost impossible to engage with it. The grim reality of it all.
Has to now be an inevitability that the (surviving) people of Gaza are displaced forever.
How are we still doing all of this mad and terrible shit to each other in 2023?

Israel Gaza: Hamas raped and mutilated women on 7 October, BBC hears
The BBC has seen and heard evidence that Hamas fighters committed horrific sexual violence in Israel.

A pretty difficult read. I assume most Israeli politicians have had access to this kind of info since the start, it might explain their lack of restraint.

Yeah, let's all hold hands and sort this.

The ‘lack of restraint’ as in killing thousands of Palestinian women and children because of atrocities that Hamas has carried out? Isn’t that collective punishment?
I agree that the attack on Israel was despicable, as were the individual acts that followed if proven to be true.

Unless people are conflating ‘Palestinians’ with ‘Hamas’ of course - in which case the genocidal impact on Palestinians would be seen as justified by those thinking that.
Edit - not sure why my previous post or this one deserved a ‘wow’ emoji tbh - it is perfectly reasonable to be against the killing of thousands of children without supporting the ’sickening‘ activities that Hamas carried out on 7/10..

This is not NEW news. This is horrific, it is inexcusable, it is barbaric. It is true.Israel Gaza: Hamas raped and mutilated women on 7 October, BBC hears

It is also propaganda.
This was known, and reported on, on October 7th and the following days. There has been a campaign by Israeli social media influencers to bring this story back to the top of the news headlines for the last few days. It is a smoke screen to disguise their genocide and human rights abuses in their reignited military campaign in southern Gaza. What happened to the initial victims on around the 7/10 has cannot be erased, nor is if a valid reason to kill TENS OF THOUSANDS of Palestinians (of which a large part are innocent children).
I am getting more angry with one side in this conflict everyday. Both sides are to blame, but one far more so than the other. One side really should know better, but they choose to use influence, power, subtefuge and downright lies to elicit support from the West. That same side is beginning to make anti-semitism seem less objectionable than it should be.

bit awkward if traders knew while the security services didn't. or they did and took no action.
meanwhile seems Israel is determine to destroy the civic fabric in Gaza, blowing up their court along with every else.

Why are you posting an interview from 8 years ago with a Politician who is no longer leader of his Party?
What does that have to do with the Hamas-Israel war going on now?

Well, exactly.
You can't negotiate with an inhuman death cult.
They enjoy the raping & killing & they'll do it forever.
They've said so

You didn’t answer my question so I repeat - What has an 8 year old interview with Corbyn to do with anything I (or anyone else) have said to merit that response from you?
And you still haven’t answered my earlier question, why the ‘wow’ responses to both my posts prior you posting that interview link.
Why don’t you just say what you want to say instead of making passive aggressive responses?

What is your view on Sir Kier not asking for a a ceasefire?
