    The person who wrote this is a journalist from Gaza. Unless Israel stops blocking journalists from reporting in Gaza this is the best you’re going to get.

    This seems like Bugs Bunny-level chicanery

    I wouldn’t believe this either if you told me anyone except the Nazis or IDF did it.

      Fairly important to point out the Israeli soldier’s large disappointment about their orders from the top to no longer shoot and kill civilians seeking aid. It’s not really a surprise that a week later we see a story like this unless you just completely ignored everything that’s happened in the last two years.

            The Nazis were far more discrete in their genocide than the Israelis. The amount of evidence for atrocities during the Holocaust is immensely lower. This is why Holocaust denialists exist and trolls who keep disputing the 6 million. Because it relies on families reporting one of their loved ones as killed without checks.

            You apply a standard to Gaza which you apply absolutely nowhere else. When you read a testimony about Sudan do you go “Is there any evidence those RSF soldiers really did that?”

            Here is a great video comparing evidence for the Gaza genocide to the Holocaust https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWyY9zQJYZ4&t=76s

              Your comparison would make more sense if I was asking for proof of people being killed in Palestine at all instead of for this specific killing. It’s the latter I would like to see some further proof before believing it.

              You apply a standard to Gaza which you apply absolutely nowhere else

              Of asking for proof before I trust something happened? I apply that to pretty much anything of consequence lol. Palestine is not exempt from it or special in it.

                  Ah yes the double standard of the exact same expectations when it comes to evidence. The same standard I hold most things of significance to. That old double standard lol

                  It’s like you didn’t even read my reply

              No there was proof then too, just much less than after. I wouldn’t have believed it was a thing based on a single claim without anything further either (which is not the same as denial). But same goes for all genocides, real or made up. That’s just the nature of waiting for proof for claims.

              But in this case a better comparison would be a single murder during the holocaust, since we know widespread killing is happening
