The brutal truth of the war in Gaza.

Horrific! Those poor people! I wonder how many people the IDF killed this way. I remember that article where the snipers confess killing 200 people. Drawing an imaginary line somewhere and shooting anyone who crosses that line is common practice amongst IDF snipers.

It's horrific, the skulls with multiple bullet holes. It's clear why the ceasefire was delayed, to stall the world seeing the crimes against humanity that have been committed.

Total horror. There's nothing can be said.

"Though the risk from air strikes is gone, for now, the grim work continues for the remaining Civil Defence workers. Pictures shared with the BBC by members of the agency in northern Gaza on Monday showed them performing harrowing work, including the recovery of dead babies and of human remains in poor condition.
"In every street there are dead. In every neighbourhood there are people under the buildings," said Abdullah Al-Majdalawi, a 24-year-old Civil Defence worker in Gaza City."

You repeating an untruth doesn't make it true.

Oh it is absolutely what you said.

Perhaps that's why your comment has now been removed.

I agree with you, but a lot of people think their deaths/injuries/trauma were justified so I can't see anything much changing. Nobody did anything much to stop it from happening. 15 months in and they've killed 20 more children since the ceasefire was announced yesterday evening. It's barbarism.

Unless Netanyahu and his co-accused are brought to justice. If they are, then there is some chance.

Those poor children. They are innocent and have suffered so much. I can only hope that one day an amicable solution can be found so future children can grow up knowing peace.

I'm listening to someone in Gaza right now, and their 4 year old daughter has just given us a 5 minute concert, singing her A,B,Cs and also other songs in Arabic (which I don't understand). That she is still singing is a miracle, it's 3.30pm there, no school, no home, but she still giggled, my heart.

Informing you of how to do so is hardly harassment.

This thread is about children dying and being horribly injured in Palestine. It would be respectful of those innocent children for people to try to keep the thread on topic.

I do care. Like I said, I don't have to start a thread about it to care about it.

Maybe you should start one instead of harassing me about it.

Let me suggest a third explanation. That there is not a mandatory requirement for every poster to make an entire thread about everything the may care about enough to respond to another poster on that topic. Can't imagine what that would cost MN in server space and bandwidth.

I mean this is getting fucking ridiculous frankly. Why are you so invested on whether or not I make a particular thread on mumsnet. Make it yourself if it's such a massive deal to you.

Oh, my mistake. I assumed that when you were saying "And the victims of the Uyghur genocide? Aren't they worth listening to?", that you cared about people listening to them, and therefore that you might have an interest in a space existing to discuss what is happening. The alternative explanation would have been that this was yet another effort to deflect away from the awful things happening to innocent children in Palestine.

No it isn't.

Knock yourself out.

You did. Shall I quote you back, for the second time today?
I find it important to take responsibility for what we say/post.

You somehow twisted this to make unfounded accusations first against Arnaud and then suggest I was denying the Uighur massacre and am a Putin lover.

No I absolutely didn't.

It is what you said.

No need to make a thread about the Uighurs, it's not me playing the deflection game right now.

I had brought up the upcoming ban of TikTok in America (mainly due to it's Pro Palestinian stance) triggering the mass migration of users to a Chinese social media app. I thought it was beautiful that Americans were learning Chinese to communicate and that both sides were learning about each other. This is important, so many of these wars are started/maintained by othering and dehumanising sides.

Quite frankly, I'm only responding to stop the derailing, I'm more concerned with Netanyahu again trying to frustrate the ceasefire

This…^

and the fact that Hamas were elected by the people living there, so in the most part appear to share Hamas’ values.

im not saying bad shit isn’t happening, it is but let’s not pretend for a second there’s one aggressor and a victim here.

Why? I dont particularly care if they do or not. They are surely aware of the possibility.

Maybe @ them and suggest it?
