    A weapon banned by the Geneva convention because it indiscriminately murders everyone in the vicinity means that it’s effective right? - israel

      What weapon?

      Cause of death is undetermined. Family says no gunshots so it must be gas. Probably. Doesn’t mean it was a weapon. All sorts of gases underground. Could have been a fire somewhere else in the tunnels. Could have been a generator running down there filling it up with carbon monoxide. Could have been the percussive blast of bombs falling nearby. This story is entirely speculation.

        Israeli army gassed my son ‘like Auschwitz,’ mother of slain Israeli soldier says

        Israel has refused to divulge further information regarding the circumstances of the deaths, stating in a press release that “it cannot be denied nor confirmed that they were killed due to strangulation, suffocation, poisoning, or as the result of an IDF [Israeli Defense Forces] attack or Hamas operation.” But Sherman’s mother says all the evidence indicates the Israeli government deliberately killed her son.
