It’s just hard to absorb the endless horrors. And I think the Israel can do no wrong crowd has lost their moral compass and any comments or questions about Israeli action here are just responded to with accusations of antisemitism.

The world view that Israel’s actions are justified because really it is all Hamas’ fault is one I cannot wrap my mind around.

Have you called on Hamas to return the hostages so this can end?

Honestly, I don't know what's more astonishing.

1. That someone actually believes this canned propaganda that was concocted by Israel as part of a pathetic, feeble PR response to their ongoing genocidal actions (spruced up with a new justification, but just as appalling as ever).

or

2. That someone actually believes that ANYTHING a Zionist says is credible and/or believable at this point, given the track record of those who have co-opted the original Zionism aim to now mean unconditional support for Israel, Jewish interests above all other interests, and anyone who says otherwise is anti-semitic.

Your red herring that the war would end if the hostages were returned is obnoxiously false, as evidenced by Israel insisting that the war would only end when they remove Hamas from power - not that they are people of their word anyway, but that's code for "the war won't end until we say so, and certainly not until all of the indigenous men, women, and children are dead" because sick AF Zionists like Bibi and you ALSO assert that all of the indigenous people are Hamas, by association. What a convenient development, especially since 2/3 of the people living through this genocidal nightmare were either not yet born or ineligible to vote the last time a vote occurred in the region.

Almost a year in Gaza sounds hellish. Too bad he won’t be able to provide an uncensored interview about the experience.

Hostages are not the only people in Gaza, or are they?

No they aren’t. Israel is lying to their public just like the US lied to ours about Iraq.

Why would they want Hamas gone at all?! They shut US suggestions down about Egypt or the Palestinian Authority taking over administering Gaza.

The point for Israel is to ethnically cleanse Gazans like some biblical genocides completely and for Israel to take it back

Then what?
Gaza is unlivable, no water, unexploded shells in the ruins, rotting corpses
Do Israelis have no conscience? Are there really people willing to move on top of a graveyard far away from where the jobs are just to be able to call themselves some kind of religious pioneers?

Hamas gives them justification to kill Palestinians so why would they ever want to “destroy Hamas?”

I thought Israel’s point of the war was to find the hostages and Hamas.

It doesn’t seem like they’re succeeding if they have to ask Hamas to give all the hostages back. Hamas offered that many times even as recently as July and they refused. Even American negotiators were shocked at how weird Israel was being about the hostages. They don’t want the hostages back. They want the war to continue

You really think it will end once the hostages are given back? Lol, if anything Israel will bomb even more without hesitation.

The WB is ignored because it doesn’t fit with the Israeli lie that they only go after Gaza because they “voted for Hamas”. WB is as violent as it always was. Settlers are actually doing the violent there not even the IDF.

Israa, a 26-year-old woman with a fair complexion and a quiet voice, arrived with our first mass casualty event around 4 a.m., on our second day in Gaza. In the chaos nobody could translate for us, so we were forced to improvise as she sobbed uncontrollably on a stretcher. All the ligaments in her right knee were torn; she had three open fractures in her two legs; and a massive chunk of her left thigh had been torn off. Both of her hands had second degree burns, and her face, arms and chest were stippled with shrapnel and debris. In the same incident a teenage girl came in with a lethal traumatic brain injury (she died the next morning) and a 7-year-old boy came in with a ruptured spleen (he recovered after several days).

Her home was bombed without warning. She saw all her children die in front of her when the ceiling collapsed on top of them. Her relatives confirmed that her entire immediate family was buried under the rubble of their home. We didn’t have the heart to tell Israa that some of her children were probably still alive at that moment, dying unimaginably cruel deaths from dehydration and sepsis while trapped alone in a pitch-black tomb that alternates as an oven during the day and a freezer at night.

On April 2 we met Tamer. His Facebook posts show a proud young man and father who became a nurse to provide for his two small children — no small feat in a land with one of the highest unemployment rates in the world. When Israel raided Indonesian Hospital last November, he was assisting the orthopedics team in the operating room. He refused to leave his anesthetized patient. He said Israeli soldiers shot him in the leg, breaking his femur. His own orthopedic team cared for him, placing an external fixator to stabilize his shattered leg.

Next, Tamer told us, the Israelis came to his hospital room and took him, where exactly he doesn’t know. He told us he was strapped to a table for 45 days, given a juice box every day — sometimes every other day — and denied medical care for his broken femur. During that time, he told us, he was beaten so badly that his right eye was destroyed. As malnutrition set in, he developed osteomyelitis — infection of the bone itself — in his broken femur. Later, he said, he was unceremoniously dumped naked on the side of a road. With metal sticking out of his infected and broken leg and his right eye hanging out of his skull he crawled for two miles until someone found him and brought him to European Hospital.


When we met Tamer at the hospital for treatment, all that was left of him was the disfigured outline of a human being, his body crippled by violence, his eye surgically removed and his mind haunted by torture. A man who once healed others was reduced to constantly begging for pain medications, reliant on others for everything — and wondering if his wife and children were even alive.


Nearly all our patients arrived during mass casualty events. Khan Younis, a city in southern Gaza, had been under siege and bombardment since December. By the time we arrived on March 25 the town was inhabited by a combination of displaced persons from the north and locals who had not fled south to Rafah despite Israel’s threats against them. (Israeli forces frequently drop flyers or send texts demanding that Palestinians in Gaza leave their homes or shelters.) Extended families often concentrate themselves in as few buildings as possible. They told us they hoped that gathering in numbers would keep them safe — or at the very least, that dying together was preferable to dying separately.

We noticed that bombing seemed to peak at iftar when families were gathered together to break the fast during Ramadan with whatever food they had available.


Israel better hope this same cruelty isn’t returned to them.

Nothing about what is happing on the WB? I’m surprised. What is happening?

I looked this Doctor up. Read his article too.

I have called each of my senators and reps 3-4 times regarding my concerns with Israel. I'm afraid this article means I will be going down in person to express myself.
