50,000 pregnant women in Gaza, 10% expected to give birth in the next month

IDF now claiming that there was no direct hit at the hospital at all. Guess their current story is that the hospital spontaneously combusted then and that the video of a missile hitting the hospital is fake.

The Nobel Peace Prize winning, warmongering old fossil finally kicked the bucket!

Sorry, not Kissinger. It's Martti Ahtisaari, former president of Finland.

Guy got his prize for 30 years of brokering peace, the saddest example when he supported the NATO attacks on Kosovo and took part in the negotiations after. Better yet, he also defended the Iraq War and was an all-in NATO fanboy. When he was criticized for this two facedness, he called the critics Stalinists.

Dude also loved austerity and of course, Israel. All in all, your usual social democrat! Rest in piss, loser!

Just saw a picture of zelensky in a different shirt. Really pulling out the big guns to return attention to ukraine

I AM NOT CRAZY! I am not crazy! I know they bombed that hospital! I knew it was a JDAM, it had the exact same sound signature- As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just- I just couldn't prove it! Th-they covered their tracks, they got the feds at Bellingcat to lie for them. You think this is something- You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? They’ve done worse! Sabra and Shatila! Are you telling me that an allied militia just happens to gun civilians down like that? No! They encouraged it! The IDF! They bombed a UN school! And the media ignored it! And they shouldn’t have- I got told they were the most moral army when I was a kid, what was I thinking? They’ll never change. They’ll NEVER change! Ever since the Nakba, always the same! Couldn't keep their bullets in their magazines! But not the IDF! Couldn't be our wholesome 100 IDF! Expelling them all! And their country gets to be recognized by the UN!? What a sick joke!

75 comments in 3 hours. extrapolating out we're on track for a mere 4200 comments by week's end. those are rookie numbers. semper post.

It’s even fucking worse than what I predicted earlier the Israeli bullshit narrative is the first thing you read

I’m like one propaganda piece away from continuously dancing on the streets after losing my sanity

aoc saying today that she’d vote to fund iron dome if it came up again

Palestinian Red Crescent:

— We are witnessing violent bombing in the vicinity of Al-Quds Hospital in Gaza. We hold the international community responsible for any bombing that occurs on the hospital, and we warn that the hospital contains more than 12 thousand displaced people.

Liberals completely forgetting "terrorism comes from oppression" when subject is not about China improving living conditions of uyghurs instead of bombing them with white phosphorus and also when China is successful in their efforts to stop terrorism . Terrorism in your allied country is result of just random luck lol

The IDF claims have not been independently verified.

Hagari said "trajectory analysis" showed rockets being fired close to the hospital, and that Israel's investigation was based on "intelligence, operational systems and aerial footage, all of which we cross checked".

Asked how an Islamic Jihad rocket could cause so much death and destruction, the IDF blamed the rocket's fuel.

"Due to the rocket flight it was very, very short because the launch has failed," Rear Admiral Hagari said.

"The existence of propellant made a larger explosion than the warhead itself."

The only representatives worth voting for:

Egyptian tweeters and activists are circulating the news that the convoy of 20 trucks that will enter from the Rafah crossing within hours contains Mossad and CIA spies who have advanced seismic devices to detect tunnels, and those supervising the entry of this convoy are the United Nations, which in Arabic means America.

China voted in favor of the resolution, drafted by Brazilian diplomacy. Washington protested against the lack of mention of Israel's right to self-defense.

i'm going off on the next person i hear say anything about the deaths of israeli "civilians"

I really need to stress that the IDF already attacked the hospital three days ago (14th Oct) that injured 4 staff members, two days after the evac order was given on 12th Oct.

The hospital director was interviewed by the NYT. Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, made a statement condemning the attacks on the hospital.

Hosam Naoum, the Anglican primate of the province of Jerusalem and the Middle East that oversees the hospital, declared 17th October "a day of prayer and fasting organized by the 13 Christian denominations in the Holy Land to promote peace and reconciliation." Probably not a coincidence that it was bombed on that exact date.

I'm not nearly as smart as any of you folks in this thread, but could this particular hospital be targeted because those invested in it spoke out, did not evacuate, and defied the IDF?

My college apparently recognizes the state of modern Iraq as illegitimate, because they only have the Saddam Hussein Iraqi flag

A revolt is brewing at the State Department over US policy in the Middle East.

This is reported by the Huffington Post.

It is reported that US diplomatic officials are preparing an appeal to their leadership criticizing the position that Washington has taken on the issue of worsening the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

The initiators of the appeal consider US policy to be one-sided - in favor of Israel while ignoring the suffering of Palestinian civilians.

Participants in the petition also complain that Secretary of State Blinken and his advisers are not addressing "widespread domestic discontent." According to another State Department official, a rebellion is brewing in the department at all levels.

I love how the IDF is just like nah about rescuing hostages, just bomb 'em all.

China builds ships more than twice as fast as the US.

It's long past the time that this woman [von der Layen] exited the stage. It's time for her to go and the International Criminal Court to investigate her.

Moving the goalpost

“Right now, one goal: Nakba! A Nakba that will overshadow the Nakba of 48. Nakba in Gaza and Nakba to anyone who dares to join! their Nakba, because like then in 1948, the alternative is clear,” the Likud Party member wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.''

https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20231009-israel-mk-calls-for-a-second-nakba-in-gaza/

''Israeli officials have repeatedly stigmatised the term as embodying an 'Arab lie' or as a 'justification for terrorism'. In 2009, the Israeli Education Ministry banned using 'nakba' in Palestinian textbooks for children. In 2011, the Knesset forbade institutions from commemorating the event. According to Neve Gordon, a school ceremony memoralizing the nakba would, under the 2011 law, have to respond to charges that it incited racism, violence and terrorism, and denied Israel's democratic character, in doing so.[55] In 2023, after the United Nations instituted a commemoration day for the Nakba on 15 May, the Israeli ambassador Gilad Erdan remonstrated that the event itself was antisemitic.[56]''

If I hear a single Western nation tell me they're concerned about the Uyghurs ever again, I'm going to say and do some VERY uncivil things

In just one week, the Israeli air strikes have resulted in 2750 dead civilians in Palestine and a further 9700 wounded (Reuters)

In comparison, the total civilian deaths in Ukraine (both Ukraine and Russian controlled territories) amounted to 9614 over 19 months, and 17535 injured (per UN OHCHR report)

That’s more than 25% of civilian deaths and more than 50% of injuries in Ukraine, in a region that has less than 5% of Ukraine’s population.

Really puts into perspective how Russia and Israel conduct their respective military operations.

Trudeau says he is not ready to accept US and Israeli claims that a Palestinian group was responsible for the hospital attack

Cmon now's the time make a statement supporting Palestine, make your dad proud

Also he could make this his moment to piss off the USA like his other dad Pierre did with Cuba

I think any chance of the Brandon Regime walking the Middle East back from the brink might have just been destroyed by the hospital bombing. there’s no de-escalating after admitting the ~800 deaths at a hospital are your doing. this is going to force every involved parties’ hands. i really don’t want to see where this is going.

EDIT 1 DAY LATER: i don’t know why i expected anything other than a flimsy counternarrative spread with the help of the white house
