The 10-Year-Old Boy Who Has Become the Face of Starvation in Gaza (but why no pressure on Hamas to be Humanitarian

FINISH THE JOB, IDF!

FINISH THE JOB, IDF!

How many dead children are enough you sick creature?

 

[gipper]

Another Holocaust denier, I see.

No. I know of the Holocaust and now the genocide in Gaza that you deny, even though it’s apparent. DENIER!

 

[gipper]

FINISH THE JOB, IDF!

Wow! Sick!

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

No. I know of the Holocaust and now the genocide in Gaza that you deny, even though it’s apparent. DENIER!

Fewer than 200 dead a day is genocide? Hilarious!

 

[JBG]

Israel has had more than enough revenge. They’ve killed about 13,000 Palestinian children. Think of the most evil government. Can you name any that has killed so many children in recent decades?

Maybe they don't want revenge. Maybe they just want to win. Is victory a dirty word?

 

[Grau]

It's very sad when Hamas hides behind children.

Among the biggest lies parroted by Israel's army of paid, trained and scripted Hasbara trolls is that anything or any body acts as a "shield" to a gang of cowardly child killing miscreants that even guns down half naked hostages frantically waving white flags.

Among the many honorable and courageous Israelis are the members of Israel's "Breaking the Silence" (1) whose testimony solidly debunks the transparent Hasbara scrips parroted by Netanyahu's genocidal shills.

Still more evidence that IDF is the most heavily funded mob of child killers, today, is that some IDFers shoot children "for fun" (2)

If anyone is exploiting "human shields" it is Israel and its provocative and illegal "Settlements" full of heavily armed, trigger happy and bigoted Zionist extremists whose "Chosen people" status entitles them to murder Palestine's native residents and destroy their homes with impunity.

For example, murderous "Settler" / Human Shields killed over 120 West Bank Palestinians in less than a month (3) and there's not a whimper from pro Israel, Western MSM. (4)

If you're so concerned about the fate of Gaza' children why do you support their deliberate starvation? (5)

âI became more and more violentâ: shocking testimonies of abuse from IDF veterans

Horrifying military abuse is recounted in a new video project that aims to highlight how US funding is aiding violence in Israel

www.theguardian.com

EXCERPT "Physical abuse was not limited to adults. A parade of soldiers in one of the videos give accounts of violence against children. One soldier describes his commander pushing the barrel of his M-16 into the mouth of an eight year-old boy who had been throwing stones at their patrol.

Some of the most disturbing testimony comes from Lt David Zonsheine, who served in a reconnaissance unit operating in the West Bank. He described the arrest of a 14 year-old boy suspected of hiding a weapon or of knowing where it was.

“What took place there was shocking torture including things like finding a thick wooden board in a field, sitting him on it and smashing his balls for several minutes. And then telling him, ‘Look, we like you,’ and kicking his balls. And then telling him, ‘Come on, just tell us, get it over with, tell us where it is and we’ll finish this,’” he said.

Zonsheine said one of the soldiers smashed a rock onto the boy’s hand. Another kept knocking his head to one side. “And at some point they started with the punching. Fists and all that. He started convulsing,” he said.

Zonsheine described the boy’s interrogators as “quite fine with the whole thing”. The soldier went looking for the boy the next day. He found him in hospital. “We saw him. He was in a plaster cast, a body cast. I don’t really know what happened to him. I don’t think he survived,” said Zonsheine." CONTINUED

Those are some cool, made-up stories.

Is Hamas ever going to stop hiding behind children and surrender, so the suffering can end?

Or are they gonna keep hiding like the pussies you know they are?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

95 a day? I thought they were committing genocide?
Less than three digits a day is kind of the opposite of genocide.

Victory doesn’t mean you murder thousands of children and enrage the whole planet against you.

"World opinion" is largely a chimera. The terms "world opinion" or the "International community" come are easy to come to the lips or the fingertips (rhyme not intentional). There is little or no analysis of what either term means, or what constitutes the "international community" or "world opinion." This has allowed for some extremely weak thought processes and reasoning.The world's population is over seven and one half billion people. I don't think any reputable pollsters are out gauging the opinion of the people of the world on any given topic.

By necessity, the views of the "international community" are taken as the view of the "leaders" of countries, typically at the U.N. level or from statements to the media by the actual heads of state or prime ministers. As anyone listening to the opening speeches at the U.N. General Assembly knows, some of these speeches border on deranged.

Why, in other words, is only the Democratic West subject to guilt trips?
