“Israel’s far-right government carries out this mass slaughter of Palestinians secure in the knowledge that it will be supported and excused by the Biden administration,” said one rights advocate.

    Is including the nation-of-origin of murdered fellow humans, in the article title, necessary?

    Is it somehow less awful if they’re from somewhere I don’t plan to visit this year?

    These are government leaders killing people who were trying to live their lives, like most of the rest of us.

    If possible, let’s name the government leaders giving the orders to murder innocent humans, and name the other government leaders choosing to support them. Also let’s name any corporations openly funding those assholes.

    Including the exact geography of where my fellow humans were trying to live their lives, when they got murdered, feels dog-whistle-y.

    And absolutely zero of them were combatants, and Hamas never killed anyone.

    Al Jazeera is the Qatar state media, and Qatar funds Hamas. All thos info is coming straight from them. Think critically about your sources.

      There has been no presence of international journalism on the ground in Gaza for months. This is how Israel wants it. News agencies have to either take the IDF’s version of events at face value or cite reports from what remains of Gaza’s government, i.e Hamas. There are no other sources except for what fragments get uploaded to social media by eyewitnesses.

      Personally, I’ll take anything from Al JAzeera over anything coming from Israeli intelligence.

      Especially with videos like this showing up on Twitter.
