Documenting Israeli army racism and torture

Last night on MSM I saw young children, about 6 years old, crying and screaming hysterically, shouting for their (dead) parents as they scrabbled desperately at rubble.

But I know it’s not the half of it or even a tenth.

@braticus
I’ve seen enough to be well aware of that unfortunately.
I started a thread here about Elon Musk - not everyone’s best friend I know but he is to be commended for pushing back against one-sided censorship of X.
The MSM on Gaza is horrifying enough these days which is saying something.

@braticus it's an interesting time to be an observer of mainstream news, in this context. When you see the difference between the sanitised, partisan TV news, the newspapers and individual Palestinian people's stories on social media, not to mention the gory horrible instagram videos etc.

I understand why you are sticking to msm but unfortunately they aren't telling the half of it.

I tend to stick to the mainstream news rather than social media. Found tonight’s coverage upsetting. Had to switch over as DC were in the room. How can this be allowed to continue?

I’m so sorry to hear all these stories. Such suffering and such terrible things being done. Very hard to watch.

@Fairtobefairohhhhhc I did read it. It’s from The Chosen Peoples Ministries. The other letter shown at the end is a note of endorsement from another deeply problematic convert to evangelical Christianity. All I’m saying is it’s not a “PR letter from Israel” and it’s dishonest to present it as such.

@25milesfromhome did you read the letter by pausing the video and watching it. The chose people ministry may be Christian. But whoever sent this letter is either using their name or it's a slightly different organisation.

The Chosen Peoples Ministries is a US based evangelical Christian organisation seeking to convert Jews to Christianity. They do not speak for the Jewish community, they’re nothing to do with Israel, and this is not, as your Instagram post wrongly states, “Israel” sending out “PR letters”.

@whatswrongwiththeworldddd yes I think he was dropongof his friends family. And they are going back into gaza. I'm not entirely sure if the other guy (Ali) was saying good bye to his wife and kids. I'm not entirely sure or if they where relatives of Ali.

@whatswrongwiththeworldddd that is so lovely and must be a source of some comfort for those who have seen so many lived ones killed and maimed as the result of wars 😢.
@Roste often they don't return bodies at all,and they steal bodies too. The mass graves at Al Shifaa were dug up and bodies confiscated. Someone please tell me what that has to do with Hamas.

Sorry I take that back - he was at the Rafah crossing towards Egypt along with some other people and he's hoping to go back home

It's very difficult to leave Gaza unless you have dual citizenship/overseas passport and even then it has to be negotiated by your embassy

@whatswrongwiththeworldddd is he leaving all of Gaza, or just Gaza city?

I've just seen Motaz's stories. He's leaving Gaza and said his good byes. So sad for him to be leaving his home like many other displaced Palestinians. We're losing one of our eyes in Gaza but it's more important that he is safe.

@Roste it's both bizarre and cruel to their relatives

Think that both parties do this 'hostage-taking' of the deceased - clearly a measure of the mutual hatred but do other surrounding countries do this too eg Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt?

Ah no I didn't mean to make you cry! I'm sorry.

@whatswrongwiththeworldddd How lovely. It made me cry (again!) One of the things I've learned over the past couple of months is what a beautiful religion Islam is. Nothing like what the western media would have you believe. Watching the people of Palestine have such faith in such an horrific time has been humbling. I wish I had the faith they have. What a beautiful people they are.
