From Haaretz.

There are posters who explain that this faction is not taken seriously, and that they do not represent Israelis, but they seem to be behind this disproportionate, harmful destruction of Palestinians. They seem to have too much power.

"In Gaza, in the West Bank and in bases in Israel, soldiers record themselves destroying Palestinian property and civilian infrastructure, blowing up homes without permission and spreading political messages identified with the far right. What is photographed and distributed is only the tip of the iceberg: The vast majority of offenses are committed beyond the range of the cameras, and in the vast majority of these cases, the army responds weakly, if at all" – Amos Harel

ICJ ruling won't immediately change war in Gaza, but danger still looms for Israel

Awful and shameful. Sadly he's not alone in his thinking and intentions.

This evil man does not represent all Israelis, but he will not be alone. It must be people like him who are intentionally making sure not to miss the opportunity for collateral damage, and shooting children, and burning people alive tents.
A war criminal surely, in his own words.

I don't @ScrollingLeaves sorry. It's all coming out of Instagram at the moment. So much footage and obviously there aren't any journalists there to report on these things. But from what I've seen it's in a UNWRA centre for the displaced. No surprised the Knesset have just passed a draft bill that aim to sever ties with them and designated them a terrorist organisation.

A man holding a child's headless body from the latest bombing.

How can people defend this and excuse this?

It is unthinkable.

Was this really supposed to be a safe section of Rafah? Do you have a map of the spaces ( I am not disbelieving you, but don’t understand how this could be so indiscriminate).

I'm not sure where to post this but I hope it's ok to on here.

I'm absolutely shocked at the scenes that are coming out of Rafah right now. In an area they were told were safe and as humanitarian area. It's honestly something out of a horror movie but worse.

I'm not going to post a link because it is far too graphic and traumatising but people need to know what's going on.

Burnt dead bodies being dragged out of a burning displacement camp for the displaced. There are many still stuck under the flames and people are risking their own lives to pull them out. The screams that are coming out is terrifying.

I just don't know what to say anymore but I pray it all stops.

I am reading your posts, but just don’t know what to say.

Just saw this poor little girls’ story - “She and her siblings were CRYING OF THIRST before their house was BOMBED OVER THEIR HEADS. Then she had to endure losing all her siblings and father’s family.
And she had her arm amputated at such a young age.“

”Shocking scenes from Ahli Baptist Hospital,Gaza's only functioning hospital in the north,reveal a health crisis as all other hospitals are offline & emergency resources are exhausted

My father,an orthopedic surgeon there,is unreachable due to overwhelming pressure & exhaustion”

I did not know that the US have it within a written law/agreement that if Palestine gets full statehood recognition that the US will stop its funding to the UN.

The US has it also on their books that if any US official was tried for crimes in The Hague, the US would put boots on the ground.

This is what imperialism looks like.

Maybe the UN would function a lot better without them

The US demographic I'd changing though, and laws can be changed.

@DomPom47 which really shows their commitment to a two state solution, parity of esteem for Palestinians, etc.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/rights-groups-petition-court-to-shutter-negev-detention-facility-over-torture-claims/

Israeli human rights groups on Thursday petitioned the High Court of Justice to close the detention center at the Sde Teiman military base in the Negev due to allegations of torture of Gazan detainees at the facility.
“Evidence has mounted on what is allegedly happening at the facility,” the petition read, “which reveals an unimaginable reality of surgeries performed without anesthesia, holding detainees in painful positions for days and handcuffing that leads to amputation, blindfolding for long periods, even when providing medical treatment and while [detainees were] defecating, holding detainees in diapers, beatings, and abuse.”
The petition was filed by the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI), Physicians for Human Rights (PHR-I), HaMoked, and the Public Committee Against Torture (PCATI), among others.

The UN’s top court has ordered Israel to halt its assault on the southern Gaza city of Rafah in a landmark ruling that will ratchet up the pressure on the increasingly isolated country.

The president of the international court of justice, Nawaf Salam, said the humanitarian situation in Rafah had deteriorated further and was now classified as “disastrous”, meaning the ICJ’s previously issued provisional measures “do not fully address the consequences arising from the change in the situation”.

“Good morning from Al Aqsa hospital in central Gaza, the last operating medical facility. A state of tension prevails among the working medical teams, the wounded, and the sick. The hospital is on the verge of collapse and shutdown as generators ran out of fuel.”
