Look, I'm as against the genocide as anyone could be, but has anyone actually vetted this claim? This seems like Bugs Bunny-level chicanery

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 33 points 3 days ago (22 children)

The person who wrote this is a journalist from Gaza. Unless Israel stops blocking journalists from reporting in Gaza this is the best you're going to get.

This seems like Bugs Bunny-level chicanery

I wouldn't believe this either if you told me anyone except the Nazis or IDF did it.

Fairly important to point out the Israeli soldier's large disappointment about their orders from the top to no longer shoot and kill civilians seeking aid. It’s not really a surprise that a week later we see a story like this unless you just completely ignored everything that's happened in the last two years.

This

Was there a pile of sand right next to it with the bulldozer waiting rigt next to it?

It seems a bit too elaborate to be truthful

Yes, IDF likes to be inventive with their genocide, you know, keep the fun in it, but this seems to be a road runner episode more than reality

GHF then lies about this and calls the journalist Hamas, basically instructing the IDF to kill him

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Why is this saying Americans? Are there troops on the ground that we don't know about?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 29 points 3 days ago (1 children)

GHF is ran by American mercenaries. And funded by America and Israel.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ah, thanks for the info, was really confused why the hell we had troops over there. This seems like an NGO just doing fucked up shit and calling it aid.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well yes. It's mostly an Israeli ran project to ethnically cleanse Gazans from the north and force them to move South to collect aid. But IDF soldiers can't help themselves from committing war crimes at the sites because they are literal cartoon villains.

The original founder quit after saying it was no possible to not commit war crimes running the org. Now an American Evangelical Zionist has taken over.

What the actual fuck. Who the fuck says shit like that.

[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 36 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

In any other circumstances I would say that this wile e. coyote shit is too comically evil to be real, but genuinely can’t be surprised anymore by the levels they will stoop to. It’s guilty until proven innocent at this point.

So a claim is made that people are bring buried alive in pits, having been baited there with bags of sugar, and the rebuttal is not "we didn't do that, that's monstrous" it's "nuh-uh, we don't even provide sugar" and the reply to that isn't a picture of bodies being extracted from those pits, but a picture that shows bags of sugar along with other food items?

What the fuck is this shit

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 29 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I remember thisexcuse when Israel executed 15 medics and buried their ambulance.

"Pics or it didn't happen" for Palestinians.

"Why don't you believe their contradicting testimonies are you antisemitic" for Israelis.

[–] IttihadChe@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 days ago

Maybe the guy didn't provide a picture of the pit because he wasnt there at the pit but he provided picture of sugar because he has sugar and that alone disproves their claim that it was a lie based on them not having sugar?

Is there a news article link to this?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 days ago

According to GHF OmarHamadd writes for TheNewArab, TheNation and AlArabya. Though I'm not sure if this had made it into an article yet. He has deactivated his Twitter after being directly threatened by GHF for reporting on their crimes.

If true fck idf us, if not true still enough proven genocide and aid deaths to keep that opinion.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 days ago

Everything a person in Gaza claims is factually true unless Israel lets in journalists from outside.

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I’m still baffled about how in a place that is completely blocked off from the outside world and the entire population is being starved, money is still a factor in their lives.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 days ago

Groups like the Israeli backed Abu Shabab gang are making millions by stealing food and then selling it on the black market.

Many people outside Gaza donate to charities which send money to Gazans so they can buy this food. It is a perverse incentive.

I literally feel sick. that's not aid that's baiting starving people to death. half of Palestinians are children but zionists don't care. they don't care about children or the lives of starving Palestinians. all they care about is progressing their genocide

[–] primalmotion@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

I'm calling BS on this one. There is no sauce.
