Gaza death toll tops 5,000, nearly half of them children: Officials

Israel has continued bombarding Gaza’s south despite telling 1.1 million people in the north of the besieged enclave to relocate there ahead of an expected ground offensive.

“We were displaced from Tal al-Hawa to Rafah at the request of the Israeli army, and this is what happened to us. My son is a 3-month-old martyr,” the father of a child killed in an attack in Rafah told Al Jazeera.

Our tax dollars and tax euros at work.

agitatedpotato,

Shit like this is no small part of why I’d sooner serve crack that serve in the military. And there’s not a single drop of sarcasm in that statement.

working_bee,

I’m honestly just so depressed.

pascal,

Me too.

I’m both sad and very angry about the situation, nothing news worthy so far makes me feel so powerless.

Historical_General,

Think of what Palestinians are going through if you feel this way. I had to stop looking at the corpses and small children being torn apart. But I don’t regret it, it only made my resolve stronger to counter the lies.

It is all and well within the limit of a “proportionate” response exercising the “right of selfdefence”! Wondering who decides where the limit goes.

trash80,

Does the death toll figure include those killed at al-Ahli Arab Hospital?

ebenixo,

You won’t hold the media you are invested in accountable for the manufacturing of consent for this, because they’re the same ones that feed you your ‘orange man bad’ content. You’ll give them a pass.

KvasiroftheWoods,

So, so tired of that rhetoric. Trump is a POS, I don’t need ‘orange man’ content to know that. He’s definitely on the top ten worst presidents list. You automatically qualify for that list when you foment an insurrection.

ebenixo,

the rhetoric that makes you accountable for supporting media companies that manufacture consent for illegal wars. lie, and spread propaganda. yea i bet you are so tired of it.

grayman,

Muslims consider adulthood to begin with puberty, 15 years of age. It’s not uncommon for Muslim military soldiers to be under 18. In the west, we consider anyone under 18 children.

It’s still terrible and I’m not saying they’re not children. I’m just pointing out that many of these children are legal adults and adult soldiers in their own culture.

zerfuffle,

Can’t 17 year olds join the US Army?

alcasa,

And 16 year olds the british army: jobs.army.mod.uk/how-to-join/can-i-apply/age/#

middlemanSI,

Work towards a bEtTer future I see…

Miczech,

I’d be careful with using these numbers as they are difficult to verify and often come from Hamas themselves. That is not to dismiss lives lost but raise awareness about committing to accurate information.

Were you this skeptical about Ukraine, Xinjiang and elsewhere too, or is it just going to be a thin wrapper of Palestinian sympathy over your enforced support for Zionist Anglo empire agenda?

Miczech,

Here’s the problem. In making your point you can’t help yourself but make assumptions about my beliefs and stances. You should always be careful about your information sources no matter the topic at hand.

This level of nuance and care mysteriously does not exist in fake incidents USA manufactures about other countries. I wonder why…

DeriHunter, (edited )

This is straight up lie, Al Jazeera lie they’re ass off. There are civilians who died but that’s only because hamas uses them as human shield.

And after the horrors in Israel I don’t give a fuck. We need to do anything to kill each and every one of those fucking monsters,

kidnapping a 9 month old babies, burning alive father and son hugging, which were barely identified,

Opening a pregnant woman, taking the infant out, kills him and shoot the mother in the head

rapping 10 years old kids fuck them!

We need to kill every one of them, scums of the earth

Edit: fuck you all down voters - terrorists supporters down vote all you want, see if a give a fuck
