    Slightly misleading title: Preliminary estimates range from 80-200 dead, uncounted hundreds wounded.

    Fuck israel.

    In any normal universe, thousands of innocent people being massacred on a single day would be bigger than 9/11. Yet aside from this post on lemmy, I’ve heard nothing of it. WTF is going on!?

      Still a massacre, but did you actually read the article? It says thousands were shot at, not killed. How many people upvoting your comment pointing out a lack of information actually read the article presented to them?

        Israeli troops gun down thousands of Palestinians awaiting aid in north Gaza

        It says Israeli troops gun down thousands of Palestinians awaiting aid in north Gaza, did you read the fucking article, it’s right in the title.

        “gun down thousands”

        That does not mean shot at, that means killed.

          Did YOU read the article?

          No official death toll is yet available; nevertheless, local reports say anywhere between 80 and 200 Gazans were killed during the latest Israeli massacre.

    Remember like a couple of weeks back, when the UN said that Israel had shot at their aid convoy from the sea.

    Or the Israelis sitting at the border crossing preventing humanitarian aid being delivered and Israel doing very little about it. All because the suffering of 100 is more important than the suffering of millions. What kind of twisted moral one should have to believe this.

    Or Israelian authorities (COGAT) withholding tent poles and delivering the so needed tents without poles, because you know tent poles are very deadly weapons.

    And Israel can alleviate the suffering of all Palestinians if they want, just that they don’t want, they want for Palestinians to suffer to learn their place. They are acting as a bully while screaming I am the victim in front of the rest of the world.

        If it were just an “Assault Rife,” like an M16 or Uzi or something, then the casualties wouldn’t be nearly as high. But according to the article it was a heavy machine gun, like one of these:

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M240_machine_gun

        Which is something that is only depicted in Hollywood films when they want to really drive home the war-crime “bad guy” aspect by having the Nazi’s fire into a crowd.

          Yes, but you know the cruelest thing isn’t the bullets, the bombs or the artillery. It is setting up a population of over a million purposefully in an impossible situation with nowhere to go, no access to hospitals (because you specifically destroyed them one by one), and no access to electricity, clean water or food.

          Imagine having a fish tank full of cool little fish and just deciding you didn’t want it anymore so you unplugged the lights and oxygenator and stuck the aquarium outside your window in the cold. Then you pulled up a comfy chair next to the window and just sat and watched as the fish slowly starved, suffocated and froze to death. This is what Israel is doing to Gaza, except Gaza is full of human beings not fish.

          Actually maybe I am being unfair, in this metaphor the IDF would probably put a post it note on the fish tank that said “EVACUATE AREA” which if you think about it really gives the fish the choice to stay or leave.

            It’s basically Warsaw ghetto, but bigger and with 5 times more people inside.

      jerk off while this happens

      Not really. “Israel” is only able to do this because it has the full support of the US empire. They know they can get away with anything so long as the most war-mongering nation on the planet is with them.
