Israel / Palestine

One of the hostages who were released has told her story https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/15/world/middleeast/hamas-israel-hostage.html https://archive.ph/g9Qo2

Desperately sad, to hear the innate humanity and empathy of people towards each other, while their leaders brainwash them into hatred.

There’s reports coming out that the bulldozers are now going through tent with people inside.

Where is this report from?

Al Jazeera.

"Anas al-Sharif, our colleague at Al Jazeera Arabic, is reporting from the ground in Gaza that Israeli bulldozers have trampled over the tents used by Palestinians taking shelter outside Kamal Adwan Hospital and brutally crushed them.

“A terrifying massacre and unspeakable scenes. What the Israeli occupation did inside Kamal Adwan Hospital is a horrific crime against citizens and medical staff,” al-Sharif said in a post on X.

“Dozens of displaced, sick and wounded people were buried alive. The occupation [Israeli] bulldozers trampled the tents of the displaced people in the hospital yard and brutally crushed them.”."

Please post a link with stories like this. I've forgotten to link to sources myself at times, it's important for people to know where reports are coming from in this athmosphere of info wars and dis-information.

Can't find anything relevant to the bulldozer story in that link?

I have copied and pasted the text from it, you just need to scroll.

An IDF official says one of its soldiers saw the hostages emerging from a building without shirts on, holding a stick with a white cloth on it.

The soldier felt threatened and opened fire, declaring that the men were terrorists, the IDF official says.

I'll admit that I'm sure being in an active warzone substantially changes the meaning of "feeling threatened", but JFC. And what isn't being said, but if everyone is a terrorist then everyone is a justified target

Can't read it.

Forgot the us and other journalist Israel has murdered?

Will add the name of the Palestinian poet and journalist that Israel defence force.

When 5 year olds throwing stones at an invading armoured vehicle and body armoured soldiers then the soldiers shoot. That is feeling threatened too.

Just seen IDF shot dead 3 hostages. Obviously a tragic mistake

Of course, it’s not like they were waving a white flag, was it? Oh…

The first link is to the New York Times site, which is paywalled. The second link beats the paywall with archive.ph

I said there’s reports coming out, but yet to get confirmation

Reminded me of Rachel Corrie

Yeah, it’s nothing news from the IDF, but fucking horrible.

More report, the more the genocide continues, the more they realised they can keep getting away with it.

You don't just need to scroll. You need to know who the journalist is, who employs them, who they spoke to on the ground, and if other outlets corroborate the story yet.

I said there’s reports coming out

That's fine, but from where etc

Yeah (as it shock a white flag), but listen to BBC radio news on the 16/12, a spokesperson brushed over that as Israel is fighting a war against satan...in his opinion.

Trying to worked out coached or is he playing to white Christians.

Would you people consider squakbox a valid news source?

In a very sarcastic tone, yeah is that all? As idf usually shoot stone throwers/people with cameras, people looking on. When invading and ethnically cleansing an area.

An NGO monitoring violence against journalists says they’re concerned with the record number of journos that have been killed, and especially Al Jazeera reporters. Befittingly, the fact is buried in the article.

The cameraman, Samer Abu Daqqa, and Wael al-Dahdouh, the bureau chief, were covering the aftermath of airstrikes at a U.N. school-turned-shelter in Khan Younis when both were wounded, the network said. Mr. al-Dahdouh told Al Jazeera that he was able to walk out of the area and seek help. Mr. Abu Daqqa bled to death from his injuries, as emergency medical help was unable to reach him, the network said.

In October, Mr. al-Dahdouh’s wife, son, daughter and infant grandson were killed at the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, where they had been sheltering…

Another journalist and their family eradicated. No mention of the legitimate targets in these strikes either.

You don't just need to scroll.

Jesus wept. You said you couldn't find any reference to the story in the link, I gave you instructions on how to find it. I'll leave you to find the names and addresses of the people the reporter spoke to in your own time.

This has been going on for a while, for that to appear on US media there must be a level of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Being a journalist in that area is your life and your families lives threating if you don't agree with Israels actions. As Israel enters other countries under the banner of self defense claiming terrorism.
