Eyewitness testimony reported Wednesday by Al Jazeera accused Israeli troops of massacring forcibly displaced women and children sheltering at a school in northern Gaza,
The Israeli soldiers came in and opened fire on them," one unidentified witness said. “They took all men, then entered classrooms and opened fire on a woman and all the children with her,” including “newborn children.”
“The Israeli soldiers executed those innocent families point-blank,” she added.
A man who arrived at the scene after the alleged mass murder told Al Jazeera that “we found dozens of dead bodies in the classrooms.”
“There is no sign of any missiles or shells,” he added. “All those who were in the buildings were executed from point-blank. The Israeli soldiers opened fire on them. Many families came searching for their children. They found them all killed. They were all killed, executed at gunpoint.”
Hey sorry, I’m just a bit curious about when you developed this strongly held view as it seems at odds with your previous posts?
Like for instance here where you readily accepted Israel’s claims about Ibrahim Biari being in the refugee camp they bombed without independent verification?
I’m guessing some profound and enlightening experience in this past month has convinced you to be more critical of news sources and your previous comment has nothing to do with your support of Israel’s actions such as your genocide denial or making excuses for why bombing a refugee camp was actually okay.
It just feels like your comment was made in bad-faith here, but I’m sure it was well intended.
Stalker!
You know your posts are public right?
Seriously haha. These squares follow every single thing you lot say and if any of it wavers, full blown crazy behaviour.
The best part is being downvoted from all their alts and brigading gross propagandists lol.
Low effort concern trolling is insidious bs though.
Check my comments. I didn’t post on any of this thread yet and I don’t have alts, but I downvoted both of you in this absolutely dumb exchange. I don’t think that’s brigading or trolling.
If you get your hypocrisy called out, shouting and pointing stalker doesn’t mean you’re suddenly not a hypocrite.
Same same. Some copium being smoked.
Homie, if you don’t think every Israel/Hamas thread isn’t brigaded to hell and back on a popular, mostly unmoderated, & federated instance, then you’ll be gobsmacked the moment you say anything remotely based in reality lol.
People just want to have their upvote and downvote circlejerks depending on whether it’s Pro-Israel/IDF or Pro-Palestine/Hamas. It’s no different than reddit, and just like there, the points often don’t matter.
Yeah no, you are being downvoted because you are not adding anything useful to the thread, no big conspiracy here

I was debating on telling them that but I feel like some people need to pick up the cat by it’s tail to learn their lesson, not sure how convincing I could be myself.
A five paragraph diatribe over a nuanced topic when nothing OP said was odd is the dickhead propagandist behavior lol.
Calling people out on it isn’t some enlightened centrist status quo. It’s one guy wasting five paragraphs to say ‘Oh you can change your mind with new info!?’
That’s fucking hilarious weird stalker shit for Lemmy. Congrats! You got him dude!
I admit that that comment was flippant, but you’ll note that I said “apparently” there. I admit that Ibrahim Biari’s death has still not been confirmed, although I’m also unaware of any strong evidence that he is still alive.
With that said, I do think that Israel’s claim is less difficult to believe. It wouldn’t be surprising that a specific person Israel wants dead would be among the many people killed in that bombing, whereas it would be surprising if Israeli soldiers executed a group of women and children, at least because doing that would be absolutely terrible for Israel’s international relations. Even countries which accept that civilians will be killed by bombing aren’t going to support deliberate murder.
I’m not saying it’s impossible. Soldiers do things like that sometimes. I am saying it’s unlikely enough that commondreams.org shouldn’t be publishing what is effectively still just a rumor.
Lol.
