This is the reality of what Israel is doing (part 3)

The Israeli government has spent millions on "reputation management", these ads are a part of that.

I remember parents getting upset earlier in this conflict as ads like this were run on YouTube kids:
https://x.com/Lowkey0nline/status/1712446982403342616

The ads are part of the larger Hasbara Toolbox used to promote Israel's image to the outside world. Though they are garish, arrogant in that they presume the target is misinformed. They also operate via fear and emotional manipulation.

Is more aid getting in now?

I'm hopeful for peace talks soon. Hostage release and negotiations on how to move forward.

The images and news coming out of Gaza are sickening.
Two months ago, the world was warned that the territory was on the brink of famine: nothing has been done to change that. I keep waiting for news there is more aid flowing through, a new crossing...nothing.

I am glad Hamas is open to peace talks, but Israel appear to be in thrall to the right-wing Government groups and they are not listening to anyone.

I see these kinds of ads too, maybe when accessing local news sites. They are always so sensationalised, like pseudo news. Very tacky.

I don't get these ads thankfully but the fact that they exist makes me cringe.

Their propaganda is so ridiculous. It's embarrassing.

not directly related with the forum but related with Israel’s governments actions.
im in a member of Spanish forum(similar idea to mumsnet, it’s has a political section which I don’t visit but apart from that nothing related with politics) . Once I month I get targeted with Israel’s governments ads. Why does Israel have the need to pay for all these ads ? Why target me when clearly I’m not buying their propaganda? Has anyone else came across Israel governments ads ?

Thank you, Kevin Maguire.

“The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem is monitoring, with grave concern, the news of the raids, apparently launched by the Israeli army against the Sacred Family School in Gaza this morning. Footage and media reports from the place include scenes of civilian casualties and of destruction in the compound.

While property of the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, the Sacred Family School has, since the beginning of the war, been a place of refuge for hundreds of civilians. No religious personnel reside in the school.

The Latin Patriarchate condemns in the strongest terms the targeting of civilians or any belligerent actions that fall short of ensuring that civilians remain outside the combat scene.

We continue to pray for the Lord’s mercy and hope that the Parties will reach an agreement that would put an immediate end to the horrifying bloodbath and humanitarian catastrophe in the region.“

“My vision is to conquer Gaza... My vision is to encourage immigration, to tell the enemies in Gaza, willingly of course: "Get out of here". My vision is not a political agreement with Hezbollah, but a war with Hezbollah."

Itamar Ben Gvir, Minister of National Security, presents his vision at the MuniExpo in Tel Aviv a couple of weeks ago.

That video is outrageous. More genocidal intent being said out loud, for those who still deny that this is genocide.

I've heard that the last 24 hours in Gaza has been amongst the worst bombing they've experienced. God help them.

That's horrific.
Why is this kind of language excused?

That is so disturbing, evil witch. How anyone could view a vulnerable newborn in that way is pretty psychotic imo.

Lot of messages on X saying that Israeli troops have really ramped up the genocide in the last 24 hours. Tens of bodies being found all over the city.

also the psychological cruelty continues - https://x.com/swilkinsonbc/status/1810291969899254066?s=61&t=nilGqPeurpC5xVqZAZdZog

“1000s of Palestinians displaced twice in 12 hours after Israelis order the evacuation of Gaza city.”

"In the orthopedic department of Shifa Hospital, they catched 150 terrorists and then killed them. At the same time, 300 terrorists were born in the maternity ward. 300!”

As the 300 terrorists born in the maternity ward can only mean babies, then that suggests, given this person’s odd understanding of language, that the 150 ‘terrorists’ they ‘catched’ were not necessarily terrorists either.

Worst of all, calling 300 babies terrorists is dehumanising them. It sounds genocidal. If anyone spoke of 300 Jewish babies this way, it would rightly be called anti-semitism.

@Dulra Yes, I think that’s what the Knesset member says. The interviewer queries it and he confirms that is what he means.

Is she referring to newborn babies as terrorists?

From the Foreign Press Association:

“What's happening in Gaza since last night is a return to the first month of genocide. Under relentless bombing, people are forced to wander aimlessly, driven south to be slaughtered there. These are the darkest and most dangerous days of the war.”

‘I’m bored, so I shoot’: The Israeli army’s approval of free-for-all violence in Gaza
Israeli soldiers describe the near-total absence of firing regulations in the Gaza war, with troops shooting as they please, setting homes ablaze, and leaving corpses on the streets — all with their commanders’ permission.

@ScrollingLeaves

Think that was me, and the C word.

Ted? Expletive? Did you mean that for another thread?

They might do that if hamas release hostages as well.

Isn’t Hamas agreeing to release some of the hostages without a total ceasefire? It is Netanyahu holding back. (That was the news yesterday.)

I know you are angry Ted but I found your female genital expletive very offensive particularly on a mothers/women forum .

Also to add to my previous list:

• join the SA case against Israel in the ICC
• support the arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant
