Palestinian officials are accusing Israeli forces of carrying out “execution-style” killings in Gaza after the discovery of a mass grave containing at least 30 decomposing bodies. Some of the victims were blindfolded with their hands tied behind their backs with zip ties. The bodies were found on the grounds of a school in Beit Lahia. Al Jazeera spoke to one man who helped discover the bodies.
Palestinian man: “Inside the schoolyard, we were shocked to find the dead bodies. Those are Palestinian civilians, blindfolded and handcuffed at the back. The dead bodies were kept inside black plastic bags.”
The discovery of the mass grave comes as the death toll in Gaza has topped 27,000. At least another 66,000 have been injured. The group Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor is now estimating that more than 25,000 Palestinian children have lost one or both parents in Gaza over the past four months.
I don’t mind it being pointed out. It’s especially damning because of that. You would think that they had learned better. But as is often the problem with humankind. We don’t ever really learn. We just retaliate when given the chance.
When I say Israel that means government. When I say Israeli people. That means Israeli people. Like when people say America. Typically means American government. When they say American people. That typically means the American people. Is that clear? Hopefully that clears it up.
And to be 1000% clear. It is the Israeli government, specifically likud In the knesset that are the problem. Plenty of the Israeli people are aghast at their own government’s actions.
Sure, plenty of people in Israel are aghast at their government’s actions, but they aren’t claiming genocide like you are.
So.again, we are dealing with you using Jews as a prop who can be trusted when they agree with you but but can’t when they disagree with you.
How is this not antisemitism in your mind?
A Jewish Holocaust and genocide scholar is.
Is this the consensus or have you just found somebody who agrees with you and are ignoring other voices?
Yes, you posted this before and never replied when I responded.
If 1 scholar is enough to prove something for you, does 2 disprove it?
Have you established consensus of scholars are on your side?
Does a butterfly flapping it’s wings in Japan cause a hurricane in the Caribbean?
Have you established a consensus of scholars are on your side?
You clearly didn’t understand the question or chose to dismiss it, but that’s fine.
And currently, from what I can tell, yes, consensus is on my side I will however remain vigilant in examining whether that holds true.
Maybe this can help.
