I too hope it isn’t true, but from evidence we’ve seen of innocent Palestinians being purposely targeted, it seems that the IDF are completely capable of this. Another example is this boy’s testimony of being rounded up by the IDF and then after being supposedly released to go free, they started shooting at them, killing his dad and injuring him. Just horrific, that poor child!

My father was in the military and spent more than a year out in Bosnia, amongst other tours. His opinion is that, from the footage coming out of Gaza, this is similar if not worse, in the level of atrocities being committed. That war was horrific with similar indiscriminate attacks on civilians and aid convoys.

Veteran journalist, Peter Maass, who covered the Bosnian conflict and ethnic cleansing, has also said that what seems to be unfolding in Gaza is even worse than what he saw in Bosnia.

I struggle to understand how someone can truly believe that civilians are not being purposely targeted in all of this, despite the masses of evidence pointing to the contrary.

I would lean towards it being true. The Palestinians that join Twitter spaces have spoken about it over the last few days.

Colonel Lawrence Wilkinson, he is a firebrand and rightly angry. He worked for Colin Powell when some of those "lies" led to American intervention in Iraq.

And an anti-Semite apparently, like the account that posted that.

You're the one who admitted to having antisemitic feelings.

And I have no idea what the bloody hands comment is referring to.

@Pinkdressinggownbelt what do you mean by the " bibles chosen ones "? Please explain so I can understand the point you're trying to make.

It’s hard to explain if you haven’t read the Bible It features Israel a lot

@Molymoly

I have I doubt that with the death toll in Gaza that there are numerous mass graves across Gaza including those who died at Al Shifa hospital.

I equally agree that doctors shouldn't be burying dead patients in the hospital courtyard but the reality is that there was and is a war going on and it would have been too dangerous for the doctors to bury them elsewhere.

Al Shifa hospital has/had more than one courtyard. There was the big entrance courtyard where displaced people were sheltering, and two other medium sized courtyards with more people sheltering. The mass grave dug in November was a smaller courtyard to the rear of the complex, near the morgue and outpatient building, away from the larger courtyards.

This is the reality of what Israel is doing (part 2)
Molymoly · 15/04/2024 21:02

@1dayatatime

From Aljazeera's new's page:

  • Palestinian doctors tell Al Jazeera they have discovered another mass grave in the vicinity of Gaza City’s al-Shifa Hospital, recently besieged by Israeli soldiers, with nine bodies believed to be those of patients found so far.

Also doctors shouldn't have had no choice but to bury bodies in the grounds of the hospital, they should have been allowed a proper grave.

Efacsen · 15/04/2024 20:43

@1dayatatime not interested in your long-winded tedious self-justification

You made a mistake and aren't able to admit your error - or apologise to the poster you insulted

@Molymoly

"I would not post anything that wasn't correct."

OK so let's look at your earlier post"

"doctors have discovered a mass grave in the courtyard of Al Shifa hospital"

Now lets look at the comment by Mahmoud Basal spokesperson of the Hamas run Gaza Civil Defense spokesperson :

At least 381 bodies were recovered from the vicinity of the complex since Israeli forces withdrew on April 1, Gaza Civil Defense spokesperson Mahmoud Basal said on Tuesday, adding that the total figure did not include people buried within the grounds of the hospital.

So whilst I have no doubt after all the death and destruction in Gaza that there are bodies buried in the rubble all across Gaza (although most unlike those in the video are not in burial shrouds). This is not in the courtyard of the hospital ie within the grounds of the hospital.

I equally have no doubt that there this is a mass grave in the courtyard of the Al Shifa hospital after doctors had no choice but to bury bodies there after the hospital was surrounded by Israeli forces last year.

Despite two weeks having passed since the Israeli forces' withdrawal, Palestinians are still uncovering the bodies of civilians, including women and children, hidden under piles of sand and rubble by Israeli bulldozers in the area.

were the ones that buried , the right verb forced to.

I can’t see how the other poster has posted posting deliberately misleading inflammatory comments., Also the link is from nov. This hospital had had a huge siege few weeks ago and many bodies have been found in the courtyard since idf left the hospital. So I can’t see how the other poster was posting deliberately misleading inflammatory comments.

Yes lots of medical staff at al-Shifa in November 2023 [@1dayatatime ] the vast majority of whom were evacuated

Current photos of 'clean up' at al-Shifa show UN/WHO workers who may be doctors of some kind [@Molymoly ]

@1dayatatime should apologise to @Molymoly for his mistake and rude intemperate accusation

Given that the Al Shifa doctors were the ones that buried the bodies there, I don't think they were "discovered".

Please stop posting deliberately misleading inflammatory comments.

Not the same bodies according to CNN, see bold & italics.

“CNN
—
Health workers in northern Gaza exhumed the first corpses from mass graves in and around Al-Shifa Hospital on Tuesday, after they said Israeli forces killed hundreds of Palestinians and left their bodies to decompose during their two-week siege of the complex.

At least 381 bodies were recovered from the vicinity of the complex since Israeli forces withdrew on April 1, Gaza Civil Defense spokesperson Mahmoud Basal said on Tuesday, adding that the total figure did not include people buried within the grounds of the hospital.

Many of the decomposed remnants they discovered had been buried or were found above ground, officials told CNN on Monday. Israeli tanks crushed others to death, leaving some of those killed completely disfigured and unable to be identified, Basal said.

Witnesses and civilians who were trapped inside the hospital when it was raided say the vicinity “was full of bodies,” according to Basal. “The occupation forces have plowed these bodies and buried them in the ground,” he added.
“We are here to recover the remains of the bodies who are in the sand mounds that the Israeli occupation have plowed in a big pile,” Ahmad Alaiwa, a doctor at Al-Shifa, told CNN.
Some of the bodies were found lying under dirt or plastic sheeting, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a post on X on Tuesday. “Hospitals should never be militarized,” he said in a video message.
It came as staff from the World Health Organization and the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reached Al-Shifa Hospital earlier this month, according to a UN report. Israeli authorities had repeatedly denied humanitarian teams access to the complex, the UN said.
“Shifa has literally become a graveyard… There are bodies still in this courtyard,” Jonathan Whittall, a senior humanitarian affairs officer for OCHA, said in a video message posted on X, on Saturday.”
