‘Not a normal war’: doctors say children have been targeted by Israeli snipers in Gaza
IDF says it ‘completely rejects’ charge that its soldiers deliberately fired on any of the thousands of civilians killed in Israeli offensive
Israeli snipers shoot Palestinian Children in the head, let that sink in.
Soldiers in a. supposedly 1st world army, specifically targeting children and shooting them in the head!
How is shooting children in the head by snipers not evil?
Two girls shot in Gaza – BBC pieces together what happened and looks at dozens more child shootings
Layan and Mira are just two of more than 160 cases of children shot in the war in Gaza, for whom we have gathered accounts.
We found that in 95 of these cases, the child had been shot in the head or chest.
Who the fuck shoots children in the head?
There is a point when you admit that what the IDF do is actually evil.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
You wanna talk evil Bomber? Evil is Hamas indoctrinating kids to hate Jews from birth, strapping them with suicide vests, and sending them to stab soldiers. Evil is the Palestinian Authority paying terrorists’ families for every Israeli they kill. Evil is the UN turning a blind eye while Hamas builds terror tunnels under kindergartens. The IDF? They’re the ones dropping leaflets, making phone calls, and risking their own soldiers’ lives to minimize civilian deaths in a war they didn’t start.
This “outrage” about Palestinian kids is selective as hell. Where’s the tears for Jewish kids murdered by Hamas terrorists? You only care when you can pin it on Israel because it fits your anti-Semitic, anti-Western narrative. Israel’s fighting for survival against genocidal maniacs who’d wipe them out in a heartbeat, and you’re crying over collateral damage in a war Hamas keeps reigniting?
I worked with an Israeli guy. Good dude funny guy. We got on the piss once and he went off about needing to kill Muslims and their children so they don’t breed and create more.
He wouldn’t listen to reason and was literally shouting and frothing at the mouth.
A bunch of us just left him to it…
I saw exactly same reaction in the Israeli culture attaché in Tokyo who was also gay, after Israel had just bulldozed down a village. He brought it up, and justified the action with wild crazy eyes, foaming at the mouth like a brainwashed lunatic.
With an algorythm primed with a hair trigger to any criticism of Israel, a Hasbara AI beats human beings to be first to comment.
Who said this?
“If NZ wants to champion peace, we need to support the NZ Peace Academy concept with grants to help organise and bring Israelis and Palestinians together to find that common ground.
I am not someone who wants the State of Israel wiped from the face of the earth…….
I see Israel as a global responsibility and obligation after the obscenity of the Holocaust.
I stand with the Palestinian people AND the Israeli people!”
Ohh Zelda
The first post I can recall where you are not being sarcastic and baiting the hook for lefty snowflakes to take it hook line and sinker, then of course melt with being offended (obligatory )and need a safe space….an actual post with truth and facts, excellent post.
Nice sarcasm at the end there!
Claiming you have a right to steal people’s lands and lives because a charismatic psychotic convinced some tribesmen of the existence of a sky fairy some thousands of years ago is antithetical to these “western values” you claim to believe in.
And the barbarity of Zionists has been evidenced for over 100 years now, long before the formation of Hamas.
Where’s the cut off for claiming indigenous rights according to you? Are the Maori out of time yet? Are you saying that if a colonizer can lock out indigenous people long enough they lose their status? Just curious.
Lame whataboutism is lame
How convenient!
There has never been such a thing as a Hamas terrorist, yehud. Nobody cares about your lies.
The Arab League disagree with you. That is 22 Arab States who condemned Hamas last week.
F off Zelda. The Israelis are indoctrinating kids all by themselves. Stealing land, incarcerating people at will ( all before Oct 7th by the way) and now obliterating Gaza.
Take your meds Zelda
Evil is the things you claim as justification for your sick mind and comments that reject any idea that there is any sanctity in human life and that we are all created equal.
That’s quite a Gish Gallop you have there, Zelda. So many debunked falsehoods in two paragraphs! You have earned your Hasbara shekels. Too bad nobody believes those absurd claims any more.
Roslain, your ignorance is extraordinary. Ōtautahi rocks.
They were just as evil when dropping crap loads of ordinance indiscriminately. The amount of ridiculous supposed justification attempts along the lines of “oh but Hamas this and Hamas that”. It’s not Hamas
pulling the fing trigger or pushing the buttons. It’s the feral land thieves acting with impunity.
Zionists have always been like this, because it’s a racist cult.
1948
“The soldier recalls that they encountered no fighting or resistance in al-Dawayima and that the first wave of troops that attacked killed between 80-100 Arabs, smashing the skulls of children with sticks. Then another batch blockaded all those who had remained home and brought explosives engineers to blow up the houses with the people alive inside them. The solider narrates how one commander ordered the explosives engineer to put two elderly women into a house and then blow it up. The engineer refused to carry out the order, but it was still carried out by other soldiers. He also tells the story of a woman with a newborn who was ordered to clean the backyard of a house where the soldiers were eating, after which she and her infant were shot dead.”

Hey Zelda, any comment on the well documented physical and verbal abuse of Christian Nuns and Priests or spitting on Christian holy sites by Jews in Israel?
https://youtube.com/shorts/7TwEQX6zwUI?si=JU29ciLCyWJSJJPn
Those children seem nice, not indoctrinated at all…
Like these Hitler Youth wannabes calling for genocide and ethnic cleansing.
https://youtu.be/sUpm2jGJc18?si=JjDm3qC3I3Y2VtoY…
That seems totally “western” and normal… If you’re a moral void.
Hamas are evil, but that doesn’t justify the evil of shooting children. Some people on this site consistently fall into the trap that one’s hypocrisy justifies another’s evil. It’s a trap for kid debaters. Grow up Zelda & Co.
As the Palestinians live under Israeli occupation, they have a right to armed resistance against their occupier. This was codified into International law following WWII.
Using your “logic” of who is and isn’t a “terrorist” the French Resistance, the Partisan movement in Eastern Europe and the Jewish uprising in the Warsaw ghetto are terrorists.
Do you support the actions of the Nazis and the Third Reich?
As Israel has mandatory conscription and mandatory reserve service with very few exceptions the majority of the Israeli population are valid targets. That’s not the fault of anyone but the Israelis.
So when we look at the numbers killed and taken hostage by Hamas on October the 7th, only a few hundred were innocents. Roughly the number of Palestinians murdered every year by the Israelis for decade after decade.
Why are you comparing the right to resistance with the illegal acts of the Israeli state? It seems that you lack the context and understanding to criticize anyone chief. Best sit this one out.
According to the doctors in Gaza they target shoot different areas of the body on different days. Arms one day, heads another, genitalia another. This is fact. This is hellish and evil.
Bizarrely in all these comments there is no recognition of the important declaration this week by the 22 arab countries that make up the Arab League and 17 other European countries stating Hamas need to disarm, relinquish power and return the hostages. They also called for a two state solution. Bomber, why don’t you do a blog about that?
An occupied people are under no obligation whatsoever to disarm. Who cares what the quisling Arab League and cowardly European countries say? Not their country, not their fight. Israel strangled the two-state solution in the cradle decades ago, and no Levantine should be expected to live next door to the genocidal psychopathic state of Israel.
How is shooting children in the head by snipers not evil?
How is shooting children in the head by snipers not evidence of genocide?
How is the killing of large numbers of children in Myanmar is evidence of genocide. But killing largem numbers of children in Gaza is not?

UK accused of hypocrisy in not backing claim of genocide in Gaza before ICJ
https://www.theguardian.com/law/2024/jan/07/uk-accused-of-hypocrisy-in-not-backing-claim-of-genocide-in-gaza-before-icj
The UK is facing accusations of double standards after formally submitting detailed legal arguments to the international court of justice in The Hague six weeks ago to support claims that Myanmar committed genocide against the Rohingya ethnic group through its mass mistreatment of children and systematically depriving people of their homes and food…..
…..The UK submission on Myanmar argues there is a lower threshold for determining genocide if the damage has been inflicted on children as opposed to adults…..

Labour’s Damien O’Connor goes against party policy in calling Israel’s actions in Gaza ‘genocide’
8 Dec 2023 — A senior Labour MP stepped outside his party’s position in referring to Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocide.
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/504190/labour-s-damien-o-connor-goes-against-party-policy-in-calling-israel-s-actions-in-gaza-genocide
Jermy Corbyn in the UK and Zohran Mandani in New York showed that antisemitism smears don’t work anymore.
So when will the New Zealand Labour Party drop their “position” that genocide is not being committed in Gaza?
Long after everyone else has?
When it is safe to do so?
Never?
Better late than never, ever.
Why did Israeli human rights groups take so long to admit it’s genocide?

Ali Abunimah, executive director, discusses how it took nearly two years of genocide for prominent Israeli human rights groups to recognize it as such.

I have yet to see any evidence of Hamas shooting innocent Jewish children in the head or genitals, all I see is Hamas demanding a full ceasefire for the release of the POW’s and they are prisoners of war. Best Hamas comes out and classified them as enemy combatants. Give them the same “Rights” as Palestinians held without trial or charge. Why is no one talking about the nearly 10,000 held in prisons where there is credible evidence of torture and rape by the “Most moral army”
Um….Oct 7?
A harrowing Al Jazeera video detailing the murder of a small boy seeking food attached to a Stuff.co.nz report this morning
The small boy was in a group of others and had just walked 12k to receive a small bag of flour before, before the guns were turned on them.
If this was an account from a German concentration camp no one would object to this being called evidence of genocide.
Yet our media and the government and opposition Labour Party still refuse to use the ‘G’ word.
Their cowardice is explained by the simple fact that being signatories to the genocide convention they are obligated to take action to prevent and punish the crime of genocide, by denying it they can get away with doing nothing.

The cost of hunger: Mother left searching for son’s body in Gaza
Israeli forces opened fire near two aid distribution sites run by the Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation as crowds of hungry Palestinians again sought food, killing at least 10 people, witnesses and health workers said on Saturday (Sunday NZT).
The attached video has photos of the littel boy kissing the GHF contractor’s hand after receiving his small bag of flour.
The contractor who took the photo and who’s hand the boy kissed recounts how the group the boy was in were then gunned down, not unlike some scene from Dachou.
Who said this?
“If NZ wants to champion peace, we need to support the NZ Peace Academy concept with grants to help organise and bring Israelis and Palestinians together to find that common ground.
I am not someone who wants the State of Israel wiped from the face of the earth…….

THe GHF doesn’t provide aid, it puts out bait.
US GHF contractor Anthony Aguilar as recounted to Al Jazeera
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/7/31/ghf-whistleblower-says-boy-killed-by-israel-just-after-he-collected-aid
“He puts out his hand, and so I beckoned him to come to me. I said, ‘Come here.’ And he reaches out and he holds my hand, and he kisses my hand and he says, ‘Shukran [Thank you],’” Aguilar recounted.
But their meeting was swiftly interrupted as “pepper spray, tear gas, stun grenades and bullets” were shot into the air and at the feet of Amir and the crowd of aid seekers still gathered, Aguilar said.
As the “last group of people, women and children and small children and kids and children and babies” left the site, Aguilar said he could hear machinegun fire from the Israeli army.
“They’re shooting to control the population that’s along the Morag Corridor. And as they’re doing that, they’re shooting into this crowd, … and Palestinians, civilians, human beings, are dropping to the ground, getting shot,”
“And Amir was one of them. Amir walked 12km to get food, got nothing but scraps, thanked us for it and died,” he said.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/7/31/ghf-whistleblower-says-boy-killed-by-israel-just-after-he-collected-aid
Palestinian snipers are shooting back now specifically targeting these arseholes. There was video on the news last night of the IDF using machine gun fire for crowd control. I’m not going to engage with this any further. I just don’t understand western leaders
Yeah this is situation in Gaza so fucked up why oh why is being permitted to continue and Israel is still allowed to get away with it’s frankly disgusting and shameful barefaced lies.
