Palestinians will cry for the bombing, rape, and slaughter of their people, but they continue to harbor Hamas in the vast network of secret invisible tunnels that only a trained Israeli AI can detect.

Curious.

They certainly should have! Poor kids. (I didn’t miss your sarcasm, just adding to it)

Look what the older Palestinian kids have had to endure:

This graphic is a year old! It’s actually seventeen years since that blockade now.

I wonder why some people there might think violence is the only thing their enemy would understand. Really a mystery.

There might be an updated version at the visualizing palestine website. I was happy when they updated it to add the current conflict, but that was months after it started…

    The only day on the Israeli calendar.

    MisterScruffy ,

    The victims fought back, which is not allowed

    Kusimulkku ,

    Not sure fighting back was the best move in this case, since it caused this sort of response. But it’s not really for me to do that math

    MisterScruffy ,

    There are no good moves for the oppressed group in an apartheid state. Nelson Mandela was considered a terrorist by the US for fighting against the South Africa apartheid state

    Kusimulkku ,

    No but some actions have a bigger return than others. To me the October 7 attacks don’t seem like they gained much consider how many have died, but like said, it’s not for me to calculate that or decide if it’s a good exchange. Maybe Gazans consider it a good outcome, I dunno.

    andrew_bidlaw ,
    @andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Gazans are disposables for every party involved besides gazans themselves. Both Hamas heads elsewhere and Bibi’s admin had a streak of luck with these attack and response since it gave them a reason to be and get international support. Although this situation wasn’t okay since the formation of Israel as a state, I don’t side with people who want either Palestine or Israel to become undone since both exist for longer than I’m here, but what I miss is a peacekeeping mission that’d at least stop the bloodshed and it’s funding.

    Kusimulkku ,

    It might be hard to get a peacekeeping mission going there since many countries would never want to get involved in the political clusterfuck that Israel/Palestine thing is. You’d need a country that’s acceptable to both sides and who wouldn’t mind getting involved when things get tough. What to do when one side strikes against the other and so on.

    andrew_bidlaw ,
    @andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Yep, moreso after Balkans and after US leaving Afghan. No one wants to take responsibility and send their guys as a mere body shield, especially as other countries are not prepared to react on their troops being killed by either side, especially Israel. That, though, is the only way I see these attrocities getting stopped, because I don’t see any economical mechanism slowing down the genocide of gazans. In spite of all shit US and UN had for being involved in foreign politics, that’s the time they can do good and save people, and it’s kind of dishearting that it’s the time they’d not as long as it’s possible.

    Gerudo ,

    There is fighting back, and then there is their response.

    Think of it like the Proud Boys went to Mexico and gunned down a small town and took hostages back to Texas. Mexico attacks the Proud Boys in response, then starts wiping out hospitals, schools, residential zones in Oklahoma and New Mexico, places and people that have nothing to do with the Proud Boys. And the world stands by and watches.

    finitebanjo ,

    The vast majority of Palestinians killed were women and children. Israel didn’t fight back against Hamas, it’s goal is Genocide and if Hamas disappears then Israel won’t have their precious excuse anymore.

    Mouselemming ,

    Buncha actual Hamas adults attacked Israel and killed 815 civilians

    “they include two infants, 12 other children under the age of 10, 36 civilians aged 10-19, and 25 elderly people over the age of 80.”

    A response was appropriate. But THIS response is Vlad the Impaler levels of overkill. Israel of all nations should know that a brutal genocide will turn world support to its victims and radicalize its survivors.

    lunarul ,

    But THIS response is Vlad the Impaler levels of overkill.

    I resent the comparison to one of my country’s most beloved leaders.

    Krauerking ,

    Oh man, every Palestinian had an ID number? Man those could have just been tattooed on every person to make sure Israel could keep track of them better.

    No idea why Israel didn’t think of that. Seems obvious to use in your fenced in area that everyone has to be carefully released from for either work or because they died.

    Holy shit… Never thought of it like that… But yes!! - just check out the comments referencing IBM!!! They’re still just fucking chugging along, line go up for IBM stockholders, as if it was no fucking big deal to make the very goddamn punchcards and tabulators that led so many Jews to their horrible, untimely ends in all those concentration camps. And now, I guess “business” is good again…

    KillingTimeItself ,

    i mean, are we that deep? The nazis managed to kill like 6 million jews, idk how much of a population percentage that is, but so far we’re up to like 40k dead. and like 200k displaced? half a million displaced? Something like that.

    I pray Intel implodes after the recent news that their CPUs have an oxidation issue.

    PM_Your_Nudes_Please , (edited )

    Is it oxidation? I thought it was a voltage control issue, where they randomly sent too much power to components and burned them out. And over time, those burnt out components and errors would compound and your CPU would essentially get Alzheimer’s.

    mightyfoolish ,

    I can check later. I distinctly remember “oxidation” from a GamersNexus video but I could be remembering wrong.

    KillingTimeItself ,

    the oxidation is likely caused by the voltage problem, it’s one in the same.

    Nah. Too many Intel fanboys. I know dozens of braindead gamers who insta buy Intel because (a decade ago) Intel had the best performance. I imagine they have thousands of equally braindead customers.

    every American has an ID number too… I get the comparison you’re making but I don’t think birth certificates are inherently dystopian. there’s plenty of actual shit to be mad about, such as 14 pages of dead babies, without having to complain about mundane shit

    Krauerking ,

    LOL yeah I know. They actually are helpful for any developed country but seeing a document of a list of 34,000 dead humans from newborns to “old” that Palestine is trying to prove were real by using the identification numbers and knowing how Israel uses their labor force and tracks them made me feel the parallels to a historical use, a little heavily.

    I kinda figured they should just go all the way with it.

    I hear you, it’s been a brutal millennium so far and things look like they’ll get worse before they get better.

    We’re all powerless alone, and I don’t see us being able to stop the worst of what’s to come, but there’s pressure building against Israel, against capitalism, against conservatism, against the status quo.

    It’s going to be a rough ride but we need to stubbornly exist and be present and visible so that the pressure keeps building.

    Asafum ,

    We’re all powerless alone

    That’s the “funny” thing about it. ALONE we are powerless. The really really hard part is getting all of us together.

    Media in the past that wasn’t purely propaganda for the sake of manipulating the population would have achieved this simply by the reporting done. Now all they do is give cover to the assholes committing the atrocities across the world and we have to fight with each other just to convince people what is actually happening and why it’s bad…

    Divide and conquer works and it’s why we never seem to make progress. :(

    That’s 710 babies under 1, it seems. The document wasn’t linked in many of the articles talking about this but one article did mention it was on Gaza’s MoH Telegram account, found it there. It’s a pretty damn long list

    The Ministry of Health in Gaza

    So Hamas?

    Gaza has other people besides Hamas, but then again you probably love the idea of mass burial graves made from children the Isrealis “harrased.”

    Neon , (edited )

    Russia also has other people than Putin and his supporters, yet the russian ministry of health is still in the Hands of Putin. That’s a very stupid Argument.

    Anyways, your accusation there is absolutely ludicrous and just plain unacceptable

    Tagger ,

    Are you arguing that it’s a complete lie and hundreds of newborn children in Gaza haven’t died since October 7th?

    mightyfoolish ,

    No, didn’t even refute the mass “harassment” claim.

    For what it’s worth, I hope the Russians can get rid of their government and find freedom.

    Tagger ,

    I’m confused why you felt it was necessary to point out that the ministry of health was run by Hamas then, and what bearing you felt that bright to the information?

    Are you arguing that it’s a complete lie and hundreds of newborn children in Gaza haven’t died since October 7th?

    Putting together the bombing, indiscriminate killing of civilians near the aid centers, and blocking aid convoys to restrict calories available in the “humanitarian” areas, paints a pretty good picture. The only thing they haven’t copied from Nazi Germany yet is camps with ovens.

    boreengreen ,

    Does it list cause of death? I assume the babies are dying cause of unavailabilty of pre- and post natal care, as a result of hospitals being unavailable. Or perhaps there is widespread starvation going on. Children usually succumb first to that.

    Ultraviolet ,

    Why? Is being killed by the direct results of bombing somehow not as bad as being killed by the bombs themselves?

    mint_tamas ,

    Can you spell out exactly why hospitals are “unavailable”?

    killingspark , (edited )

    Or where that mysterious starvation is coming from that might possibly be going on

    volkerwirsing ,

    “The Ministry of Health in Gaza” is fucking Hamas and Hamas is known to be a bunch of liars. Of course there are dead babies, but please don’t trust something produced by a terrorist organization for propaganda purposes. Think yourself: Could Hamas really have the capability of producing reliable statistics about the gaza population after month of being bombarded?

    GoodEye8 ,

    Right, so let’s assume they’re lying to some extent? How much of the number do you think is made up? 50%?

    ZMonster ,
    @ZMonster@lemmy.world avatar

    Think yourself: Could Hamas really have the capability of producing reliable statistics about the gaza population after month of being bombarded?

    Was in OIF. Got mortared, ied’d, and/or shot at nearly every day. Finance nerds still went to work. MI still disseminated no intelligence at all. Marines wrote offensive things and about my mother in very visible places I could not access. In 2003, our csh still kept digital records - on computers and laptops. Everyone did their jobs without any hesitation or meaningful difficulty at all. We all used to be civilians. Everyone has a threshold for the limits of adaptation, but most of us are capable of adapting to war, unfortunately though it may be. I realize that the impression our culture cultivates about war is a guy clutching his knees, weeping, and rocking back and forth while the planet fragments around him - and occasionally that does happen - but esprit de corps tends to motivate people into adaptation. It was my experience that the children in Iraq could follow my leadership and guidance better than their parents. They could also tolerate the terror better. They also had better senses of humor. They could also speak better English. I was an army guy but I still have a hunch that this had something to do with it. So be careful of the narrow perspective that organizational behaviors could only function effectively or reliably when sequestered within utopian sanctuary. People can do amazing things.

    Maggoty ,

    There’s also the fun fact that despite similar bombings, the death toll seems to have stopped going up after Israel did their best to destroy every major hospital and health infrastructure in the country. It’s entirely possible they’ve lost the ability to effectively count the dead and this isn’t the current number, it’s the last known good number. A country not being able to count it’s dead in a war should only happen because the other side is controlling the hospitals and thus responsible for those reports. So yeah, the next time someone questions if they can even count the dead remind them of Israel repeatedly targeting their healthcare system.

    ZMonster ,
    @ZMonster@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah, that’s the part that keeps me up at night - the knowing or not of the unknown dead. I know that not everyone that dies from war dies neatly and at the war. And I know that we were only able to account for a body if it was present and discernable. So I don’t know if the estimates are correct or not. But I’m in therapy either way. Mental health is stupid.

    Maggoty ,

    Well I do want you to know you’re not alone, I’m in therapy too. I was in the 101st for OIF 1. And yeah this shit is distressing. For me it’s the people blithely excusing war crimes we bent over backwards to keep from committing.

    ZMonster ,
    @ZMonster@lemmy.world avatar

    Fuck me. See? This is why I stay my ass out of the VFW. The last thing I need is a shared experience. 😂 We wear the same patch on our right shoulder battle.

    And you’re spot on. I think it was a hard thing to rationalize that we went there to help. I mean, “we” thought we were helping. I still don’t know. Either way, you deserve self-empathy friend. Also ketamine. It helped me a lot! 😄

    Good on you for making it through the last two decades too! I would gander that we have all gone through some degree of self destruction, and I know some more than others. Keep your chin up and your head down. Don’t drink and drive and if you swim take a buddy.

    Maggoty ,

    At least in the VFW I can use my worst coping mechanism. But yeah, the one consolation I think our generation gets is that we really did remove a murderous sociopath from running the place. Everything else is murky but that’s a shiny bit. You keep your head up too.

    migo ,

    “of course there are dead babies” as if 1 is not 1 too many. Also, don’t underestimate the power of bureaucracy even during a genocide.

    Maggoty , (edited )

    I hate to defend Israel here because they’ve gone off the deep end. But there was always going to be a response and unfortunately there was always going to civilian deaths, including children. Keeping those to a minimum is a big deal to any military trying to operate in good faith, but zero won’t happen until we turn the moon into an arena and have all of our wars up there.

    MisterScruffy ,

    Keeping civilian deaths to a minimum is not something israel is interested in, their actions make it clear that they want to completely destroy life in gaza. This is 11 months of bombardment and torture and gangrape of detainees (on video) this is much more than a standard military response this is genocide

    Maggoty ,

    Yes I agree. I should have been more clear. I’m just trying to rebut the idea that 1 dead infant would or should stop a war. It sucks, I hate it, but it’s just not how the world works, and good people do their best to keep that number as low as possible. Israel is showing us their military is not made of good people.

    Maggoty , (edited )

    They are the government of Gaza. Calling their civil service workers terrorists is just ridiculous. Are Ambulance drivers in the US responsible for the CIA’s doings?

    And if they don’t have ability to count the dead anymore, (40k is a months old number at this point), could that have anything to do with Israel repeatedly targeting the healthcare infrastructure in Gaza?

    KillingTimeItself ,

    how many children under the age of 1 die annually across the world? Surely, that’s gotta be pretty high as well?

    Linkerbaan OP , (edited )
    @Linkerbaan@lemmy.world avatar

    This is specifically children killed by israel. An article from 6 months ago:

    Gaza: Number of children killed higher than from four years of world conflict

    KillingTimeItself ,

    yeah no i picked that part up, i can read, i’m just curious what this looks like relative to the usual infantile deaths i guess.

    rhandyrhoads ,

    I can just about guarantee it’s worse since bombing hospitals tends to have a higher infant mortality rate than the usual causes of SIDS.

    KillingTimeItself ,

    possibly, depends on where you gather statistics. Third world countries have a lot of people, and worse infant mortality, so it might still be pretty high.

    SkyezOpen ,

    Let me know when you find a country with a worse infant mortality rate than one that has been largely bombed to rubble.
