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.”

    Oh there’s definitely praise for Hamas here. In just the past day someone equated them ewith Nelson Mandela, and another referred to them as a liberation organization. LMFAO.

    The pro hamas, white nationalist, and other detestable groups are welcome at any “Palestian” rally. And always show there with strong support across the board.

    This group is littered with calls for the destruction of Israel and antisemetic propaganda. I wish you were right, tbh.

    And yes, I’m super sad that Hamas put Netanyahu in power (by less than half a percent tha ks to their suicicide and bus bombings to counter Perez’s lead) and collapsed chances for a two state solution.

      You’ll find crazies wherever you go. I’ve argued against those same people too and pointed out to them that Hamas isn’t the rebel army for Palestinians. They cause great harm to the civilians too.

      Lumping all criticism of Israel together with pro Hamas drivel only benefits Hamas. That’s what they want, to build legitimacy and hate towards Israel. You’re doing their dirty work for them. If you actually want to oppose them, call out the specific, explicit instances. Don’t rail against a Palestinian protest group – rail against the terrorist supporters who are trying to disguise themselves.

      The IDF is wrong for killing innocent people. Hamas is wrong for killing innocent people. Neither of them are justified in it. Anyone who cannot accept all these statements is a bigot in some way and should be condemned.

      Also, there seems to be very direct links between Netanyahu and Hamas. The NYT just reported the other day that Israeli officials allowed suitcases of money to go Palestine for Hamas to seize. Netanyahu used them to get into power and stay in power.

        I get your points and appreciate the perspective. Id say it cuts both ways, that the happiness with which the Palestians embrace the “crazies” undermines everything they say. When they’re marching next to a neo-nazi and people shouting, “Gas the jews” like that protest in Australia… then I can’t fathom why I’d care at all what any of them say.

        I agree with you 100, co dem war crimes. Including the IDFs…and 100% Bibi snd Hamas have always been best allies and partners.
