Refugee camps are supposed to be safe havens for refugees.

Can't edit the title. Meant to say Israel confirms bombing the refugee camp.

What is a refugee camp?

Refugee camps are temporary facilities built to provide immediate protection and assistance to people who have been forced to flee their homes due to war, persecution or violence. While camps are not established to provide permanent solutions, they offer a safe haven for refugees and meet their most basic needs such as food, water, shelter, medical treatment and other basic services during emergencies.

No safe haven from the genociders.

Yes, Israel has been getting away with this stuff for years with total impunity.

In 2009 Israel bombed a United Nations-run school called al-Fakhura School in the Jabalia Camp in the Gaza Strip. According to UN and several non-governmental organizations, more than 40 civilians were killed. This is one of a few such bombings to even make it to mainstream media in the UK.

At first Israel claimed it was because militants were inside, then later admitted that this wasn’t true:

Sounds just like the bombing of certain hospitals, mosques and churches recently, ahem.

Notice how all the media reports on the ground in Gaza are quoting 400+ killed in today’s attack on the refugee camp, but the UK press are quoting only 50…

I’m not being defeatist. I’m marching, I’m sharing news, I’m writing to my MP, I’m funding Palestinian aid charities where I can, and I’m boycotting the supporters of genocide, and I’d encourage others to do the same.

Starbucks, McDonalds, and Walt Disney Co. stocks are still down after boycotts that have been lasting for more than two weeks.

Money talks.

They're just gaslighting now aren't they? How the hell do they even know a senior Hamas commander was there? 🙄

I really, really hope they face justice for what they're doing.

That would be a dream.
Talking about that, did Amel Clooney make any move? I looked 2 days ago and nothing. Not even a condemnation. Given that she's Lebanese and a human rights lawyer, I expected something. I hope she's compiling a case against the genociders...

They simply don’t care and have lost any semblance of humanity . Shame on them and same on ‘ ‘leaders’ like Sunak who want them to ‘win’ and send empty condolences to the Palestinians.

ATerrorofLeftovers · 31/10/2023 20:52

Why was the refugee camp situated over key Hamas tunnels?

WeightWhat · 31/10/2023 20:54

There is so much anti-semitism everywhere it is crazy.

‘THEY’ do care. They need Hamas over so no more beheaded babies. No one thinks that won’t come at a high cost. But surely you direct your anger towards Hamas?

A refugee camp is intended as a temporary accommodation. This refugee camp has been there since 1948. The great grandchildren of those who lost their homes in 1948 are classed as refugees though they, their parents and their parents parents have never been displaced. It’s a residential area.

NmeChngeFail · 31/10/2023 20:55

You wouldn't bomb a whole school including the children, just because the school shooter was hiding underneath it.

Why didnt they send Israeli officals in there?

They can't bomb everywhere and claim Hamas is there.

It's like Hamas killing the civilians on Oct 7th because some of them were reservist soliders.

NotSuchASmugMarried · 31/10/2023 20:56

Think about it.

There is no military advantage to bombing a refugee camp is there? What military leader would kill refugees who pose no threat to them and leave Hamas alive to continue to fight them? Would you call that good military leadership? Those rockets cost £50,000 each.

There is, however, a military advantage in bombing senior Hamas commanders and wiping out their bases.

Hamas are vile - why don't they come out into the open and fight?

Wow, he has a GPS tag does he? Israel knows exactly where he is? That's well organised of them. Strange that they didn't know 1000 Hamas members were heading over the border to attack civilians though.

Hamas didn't behead babies, also the anger lies solely at the feet of the IDF they were doing this shit pre- Hamas.
And I can't even dignity the fake Antisemitism claim with a response. You really are watering down true Antisemitism.

Hamas use the civilian population as human shields. They freely admit to using hospitals and schools as cover.

Does that make it ok to bomb all those civilians?

So we've been told.

Around 32,000 times now 🙄

Still doesn't excuse genocide. Change the record. I like a bit of Barry McGuire myself.

This.

The desperate accusations make it quite obvious how difficult it is getting to defend what the IDF are doing.

I have a feeling that this time, they're not getting away with it. Finally. The world sees what is happening and it (majority, at least) isn't behind the Israeli government.

Weddingpuzzle · 31/10/2023 21:03

There are approximately 25,000 members of Hamas (I looked and checked their membership & my work colleague is a ME Senior Research Fellow and is a trusted source who said he'd broadly agree with that figure). Are you telling me that on the very last killing of the 25,000th Hamas fighters Israel would immediately withdraw and stop their military campaign?

Pull. The. Other. One.

It's criticism of the Israeli government.

If you actually cared about anti-Semitism you wouldn't apply it so liberally to comments you simply don't like and in the process render the term meaningless.

Ohlalalalala · 31/10/2023 21:04

Put the word "israel" in the title and the hasbara bots come running. Wow...

Justifying bombing babies. Justifying murdering countless innocent civilians. What next I wonder?
