2,000 children killed in Gaza, aid group says, as doctors warn fuel shortage is a death sentence | CNN
Aid agencies are calling for a ceasefire in Gaza as doctors warn an Israeli blockade on fuel means many more vulnerable babies and wounded people in hospitals will soon die. One agency says at least 2,000 children in Gaza have been killed in the past few weeks.
Inside Gaza, cut off from the world by a near total blockade, Israeli airstrikes have decimated entire neighborhoods, leveling homes, schools and mosques. CNN drone footage from Monday showed the level of destruction across parts of the strip, with whole streets flattened in the al-Rimal neighborhood in Gaza City and a row of destroyed buildings known as al-Zahra towers in central Gaza.
Save the Children said Monday that over 1 million children are “trapped” in Gaza with no safe place to go and warned of the devastating impacts of lacking medication and electricity to power vital health infrastructure in the enclave.
“At least 2,000 children have been killed in Gaza over the past 17 days, and a further 27 killed in the West Bank,” the aid agency said on Monday.
“We call on all parties to take immediate steps to protect the lives of children, and on the international community to support those efforts,” Save the Children said, adding that Israeli airstrikes are “killing and injuring children indiscriminately.”
The majority of Gaza's residents are literally children...
It's insanely fucked up that isn't brought up enough, Israels government wants everyone to believe theyre monsters, but they're kids who have lived short brutal lives because of how Israel treats Gaza.
It's safe to assume roughly half of everyone killed in Gaza is under 18.
It's almost like Israel's plan is to radicalise Palestinian youths, so more and more grow up to be terrorists with each generation, and they can use the shock doctrine after each attack to kill 10-100x more people, and steal more land, then rinse and repeat until there is no Palestine... Basically genocide with extra steps.
What's fucked up is there's a ridiculously easy fix.
If US and other western goverments told Israel if they seize any land, we stop giving them billions of dollars a year, Israel would stop annexing land. Which would likely mean they stop instigating Hamas. They'd have nothing to gain anymore. They'd finally have motivation for the conflict to end.
They're fine starting wars right now, because they have so much money to burn on "defense" and they know if any actual countries try to help Palestine, then Israel can (and will) drag the West into it and start WW3.
Even if Palestine is completely erased from the map, there's no reason to think Israel will stop. There's a very good chance they just start doing this to another neighbor next. Which is why literally all of Israels neighbors hate them.
People who have the right to defend themselves:
West Bank Palestinians being ethnic cleansed from their homes by far-right Jewish settlers and the Israeli army? ❌
Isreal when it deliberately starves 2.3 million people? ✅
Zionism is religious nationalism.
They can all burn in hell.
*religious zionism
Zionism is literally just nationalism for the jewish people. The fact that it has a religious brother is because the world decided that a race and a religion are linked. Do all jews want to be jews? No. Can they stop? No. Do all Israelis support religious zionism (which means taking land)? No. Even most of them don't. Their government and politics are just so fucked up that we have a result of religious zionists running the state. Let's pray that after this war they'll get their shit together.
Your one sided condemnation of war crimes is noted and undermines the value of your opinion severely.
Definitely fuck Israeli war crimes, definitely fuck Hamas ones, or maybe even the constant ones across the world that you don't care about like in African countries, or Haiti, etc.
fuck slave holders" "Your failure to condemn nat turner undermines the value of your opinion"
Yeah what Hamas did was awful and horrific, I agree. But it's not fair to expect everyone to always go around condemning them in discussions of Israeli war crimes.
If you were in the US and OPEC decided it was no longer selling gas to the USA. And China was like, you deserve it because those White Power Nazis are trying to overthrow the government.
And the punishment for this was killing 5% of all USA babies.
Not only would you lose your minds. You'd think there was no justice in the world.
#Welcome to the Arab Parallel Universe:
"500 Kids with cute cats killed at a hospital at Gaza by evil Israel bomb!"
"But the terrorists already confessed it was their own rocket short firing?"
"Oops, ok, then nobody was killed and the handful of slightly wounded have already left the hospital. They were also ugly and noone liked them."
Some countries just cannot behave.
Israel is more of a colony than a country.
For those wondering, this 2000 figure comes from... The Gaza ministry of health (specifically, a nonprofit citing the ministry of health), notable for fabricating a hospital bombing just last week where supposedly 500-870 people died (which is also turning out to almost certainly be a lie)

What? While the number of casualties is certainly dubious, the bombing was not fabricated. There were many families taking "shelter" (if you can call it that) in the hospital's parking lot.
It so fucking hilarious that people still believe every word they say. They hate Israel more than they care about spreading terrorist propaganda
There's a lot of bots out there downvoting truth and reason. And if you think it's bad on this issue, wait till the US election. We are all fucked.
I'm glad that this is only online and that none of these people are real. Still the misinformation is frustrating
All Hamas have to do is free all the hostages.
All Israel has to do is allow more than 34 trucks to cross the border from Egypt.
Oh so if they allow trucks the fighting stop? Oh please. Hamas hasn't stopped launching rockets since day 1. And if you think their preparation ended in a day, you're terribly mistaken. There's no chance for peace in the region now.
Lol you think Bibi is going to let the rapes and killings slide?
yes! Barely an inconvenience.

And what about the children killed, is this their fault too?
Look at you blaming the sins of the fathers on babies. How Christ-like you are.

Perhaps Israel should have thought about this before blockading Gaza for almost 20 years.
Hamas stated they were prepared for any possible response by Israel, so yeah
10% of the preparation is going to be ambushes and booby traps. 90% of the preparation is recruitment drives.
