IDF shelled civilians waiting for food aid

I strive to no longer be shocked and disgusted by the hatred of Israel’s latest  war crime, but despite my best efforts, Israel always managed to lower the bar of inhumanity…

Israeli drones and tanks fired on thousands of Palestinians near an aid centre, official says

Gaza’s Civil Defence agency said Israeli forces today killed more than 50 Palestinians near an aid centre in the territory’s south, the latest such incident amid severe shortages after more than 20 months of war.

The war since October 2023 between Israel and Palestinian militant group Hamas has ravaged the Gaza Strip, with shortages of food, fuel and clean water.

Civil Defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that at least 53 people were killed and some 200 wounded as thousands of Palestinians gathered to receive flour near an aid centre in the southern city of Khan Younis.

“Israeli drones fired at the citizens. Some minutes later, Israeli tanks fired several shells at the citizens, which led to a large number of martyrs and wounded,” he said.

…Jesus wept, they tank shelled civilians waiting for food aid?

Who the fuck does that?

I believe the cruelty required for their brutal occupation has warped them.

Analysis | A Grim Poll Showed Most Jewish Israelis Support Expelling Gazans. It’s Brutal – and It’s True

• The shooting of children by snipers in the head.
• The widespread sexual torture inside Israeli detention centres.
• The pinning of soft toys as trophies from Palestinian children that the bulldozers use when flattening homes.
• The dropping of military grade weaponry on Palestinians in tents, hospitals, homes, schools with the false justification that Hamas was using human shields so shooting through civilians is somehow moral.
• The heavy uranium munitions used and the toxic waste the bombing campaign has forever poisoned GAZA with.
• The brutal zionist settlers violence in the West Bank.
• The use of hunger as a weapon.
• The group punishment mentality.

All of it adds up to a people whose own tragedy of the Holocaust has warped and mutated them into defending what they are doing in Gaza and the West Bank.

The disgust anyone with a conscience feels at what the Israeli Government is doing forces any moral being to turn away from any cultural, economic or academic  interaction with Israel.

Zionist apologists have weaponised anti-semitism and use it to smear anyone who criticise their unholy and disproportionate violence.

When a people are prepared to justify such horror for their own sense of security, that people become forever damned by such cruel math.

The Palestinians are paying a terrible price in bodies and limbs for their resistance to Occupation, but is the State Israel that has burnt its own soul.

Even if Netanyahu manages to kill every Hamas member in Gaza and the West Bank, even if he cleanses all those places from Palestinians, the price will be more than any of them can pay.

Even if Israel ‘wins’ they will have lost so much that any sense of ‘victory’ will be bitter ashes in their hollow mouths.

When you oppress a people, the oppression doesn’t just change them, it damages you too.

With Trump considering attacking Iran, this madness will only become more dangerous.
