  • For all the sensationalism surrounding the events of Oct. 7, when Hamas broke through the Gaza fence and seized territory in the Gaza Envelope as part of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, there is still much that we do not know. The official Israeli death toll from the attack is estimated at 1,200 civilians, revised from an initial estimate of 1,400. Among this figure are several hundred civilians, which Israel says were killed by Hamas militants. Other testimony from survivors of Oct. 7 suggests an alternative explanation-that in its fervor to defeat Hamas, Israeli commanders may have willingly targeted and sacrificed Israeli soldiers and civilians in the crossfire. Max Blumenthal of The Grayzone joins The Chris Hedges Report for an in-depth look.

      Only the israelis are capable of such savagery and barbarism. The Palestinian people have been trying to tell the world for decades but no one believed them. Many of the brainwashed Westerners came back totally shocked after a visit to Palestine, shocked not only because of the horrific treatment of the Palestinians by the israeli occupation but shocked by all the lies the Western media have been telling them for decades and also shocked by how they had been had all these years being totally on the wrong side of things.

    An Israeli woman who survived the Hamas assault on settlements near the Gaza boundary on 7 October says Israeli civilians were “undoubtedly” killed by their own security forces.
    It happened when Israeli forces engaged in fierce gun battles with Palestinian fighters in Kibbutz Be’eri and fired indiscriminately at both the fighters and their Israeli prisoners.
    “They eliminated everyone, including the hostages,” she told Israeli radio. “There was very, very heavy crossfire” and even tank shelling.
    The woman, 44-year-old mother of three Yasmin Porat, said that prior to that, she and other civilians had been held by the Palestinians for several hours and treated “humanely.” She had fled the nearby “Nova” rave.

    The Hannibal doctrine used in the Israeli army is horrible enough, but to apply that to civilians of your own country and just massacre them just to dealing with them as hostages is so appalling, so inhumane. It basically means that the lives of your own fellow countrymen loose their value once they fall into enemy hands. It considers civilians to be disposable items.

      All because the human world is a grand mystery
      Fighting for fame and gain-all for naught in the next lifetime
      In the end times, the cosmic bodies will have disasters

      ‘Tis the Creator who has reversed the cosmic course
      Spreading the Fa, saving sentient beings, having you cultivate anew
      Gods descended into the world, awaiting salvation by the Fa
      It has been more than ten autumns that Dafa has been spreading

This is truly a fight between day and night, good and bad , right and wrong. We see the masks come off so many who always talked about justice and human rights.
      As human right is so fit for Ukrainians (European and US officials and media once said “they are people like us blue eyes and blond hair”, indicating that other refugees are less) , that same human right is suddenly not so much of a right to a middle eastern or an Arab or worse….. like a Palestinian!

      Unfortunately, there is no audience for the truth. When the massacre at Amritsar occurred in India and the British soldiers fired into the crowd, the British were outraged because it was carried by the news of the time. There were journalists and photographers present to record what happened. Furthermore, the British population was intelligent enough to digest the news and react to it. If Fascists control the flow of world media and protesters are arrested or fired from their jobs or otherwise persecuted, it will be a slim chance that affords us any justice in the future. I feel that these crimes will be like most of those by Stalin and Mao, largely unrecorded and unremembered and ripe for repetition.

      Before 1948, the country known as Palestine was home to a diverse peaceful population of Arabs, Jews, and Christians, as all groups had religious ties to the area, especially the city of Jerusalem.
      The State of Israel of today was created by the United Nation's (through Britain's 'Balfour Declaration') dividing up in 1947 of the country of Palestine. Thus, the State of Israel today is not to be confused with, and has no connection to, the word “Israel” within the Christian Bible. research it -

    Let's be honest, the idea and Netanyahu do not care about their own hostages. Of course on TV they're going to say they care about the hostages but just think if Israel is blocking clean water, feel, electricity and medical supplies, that affects the hostages also. If they're blocking food and water what are the hostages going to eat and that's not even taking into account the bombings. Those hostages have to be somewhere in Gaza in one of those buildings or scattered around in different buildings so if they're bombing every other building they're most likely going to kill the hostages too and if the bombings don't kill him like I said no water no food no medical supply and no electricity is going to kill them then. But Netanyahu doesn't carry he'll just blame her mom's for it he'll say Hamas killed all their hostages but you got to use common sense. Why would Hamas kill all these hostages out of the blue, you have to ask yourself. The whole point of having a hostages is to have some leverage and some type of deal. But like I said Netanyahu does not care about not only Palestinian civilians he doesn't even care about his own civilians

    I told him, anytime someone is talking about eating babies, it's not true. It's just the worst thing anyone can think of for someone to do. So, if you want to make a monster or a person seem truly evil, you accuse them of eating babies.

      And btw, have you heard that a huge natural gas deposit has been found in Palestinian land and coastal waters? And that Israel has already given the contract to BP to explore it? And that the stepfather of UK´s PM Sunak owns a company that was awarded a contract by BP to develop the IT in the exploration? Do you really think Israel is just after Ham.as?? No, the end game is expelling those peoples, ditch the Two State Solution, and keep that gas deposit for themselves!

    On the 7th, there were no direct attacks on civilians, only collateral damage. Out of the 769 names on the Haaretz dataset, 462 were military personnel, including 55 soldiers, 13 privates, 59 corporals, 200 sergeants (45 of whom were sergeant majors), 48 commanders, 32 lieutenants, 5 lieutenant colonels, 6 colonels, 37 officers, 10 inspectors, 6 intendents, and 2 Lance Corp. This was a military defeat, and they are taking it out on the rest.
    Out of the 1148 total names, 403 were military personnel, 59 belonged to the police, and 668 were civilians. This means that the collateral damage on the 7th was lower than any of the iTf "mowing" operations, which has a ratio of 6:1. The ratio of civilians to military personnel killed on the 7th was 1.6:1, with 462 military personnel out of 1148 total. When including all casualties, not just deaths, the collateral damage ratio of the "mowing" operations is 162:1 and not "just" 6:1 based on analyzing UN OHC data from 2008 to 2022.
    A 162 :1 ratio means that for every 162 civillians, 1 military personnel is a casualty. The 7th had a ratio of 1.6:1, a hundred times lower.
    The reported (not all have their ages listed) ages of the victims are as follows:
    0-4: 2 civilians
    5-12: 8 civilians
    13-17: 14 civilians
    18-25: 132 civilians
    26-40: 119 civilians
    41-60: 55 civilians
    61+: 40 civilians
    18-25: 258 active duty military personnel

He organized the slaughter at the concert , making sure no security was triggered...allowing it, to occur. He then had the freedom card to proclaim, he was at war with Hamas .The smirk on his felon mug said it all. He wanted to be at war with Hamas and get rid of the Palestinians, for decades. He now, had carte blanche. His government should have exposed him as a fraud when they had a chance. They blew it, and now, there is this unleashed monster, who feels vindicated , with the help of the US behind him. That is my "view" of the genocide happening in Gaza.
