"Dr Alaa al-Najjar, a paediatric specialist at al-Tahrir hospital within the Nasser Medical Complex, was treating victims of ongoing Israeli attacks across the strip on Friday when she was shocked to find her own children and husband brought into the hospital.
The children - the eldest aged 12 and the youngest just six months - were severely burned in the bombing."
Deliberately targeting the entire family of medial staff. Striking right after the husband returned indicates the usage of “where’s daddy” AI to maximize civilian casualties.
I generally do try to empathize but I can’t even get myself to begin thinking about this. It’s like the words hit my brain and bounce off.
God damn. Palestinians are some strong & resilient people
They don’t have much of a choice.
I just fucking can’t. I am not being cute with a “can’t even” type comment. I genuinely mean that my psyche is having an impossible time processing the horror and the fact that I cannot stop my money from going to fund said horror.
Let’s become Quakers and refuse to pay war taxes.
The government will just take a loan and devalue your money. I’d joke that “crypto will save us”, but that’s controlled by them too.
A general strike is the only thing that will stop this, and I don’t think it will happen.
They are worse than Nazis, idc what anyone says. They are worse and there hasn’t been an evil this gross and depraved in the world for a long while.
In Gaza, it is not only healthcare workers who are targeted. Israel’s aggression goes further, wiping out entire families.” In addition, at least 111 civil defence workers have also been killed. On Thursday, the health ministry reported that at least 53,822 Palestinians - including 16,503 children - have been killed in ongoing Israeli attacks across the blockaded Strip. Among the children killed, 916 were under one year old; 4,365 were aged one to five; 6,101 were between six and 12; and 5,124 were aged 13 to 17. According to the health ministry and the civil defence, thousands more remain missing and are presumed dead beneath the rubble.
Good to know they define “children” as “under 18”
It always brothers me when they don’t say what “children” means in reporting
I BET that Doctor is ANTI SEMETIC since they Probably HATE Israel now! JUST for BURNING HER ENTIRE FAMILY FOR NO REASON!
i am surprised that jewish community let israel use this defence. israel is a country of criminals, they haven’t got a iota of jewish value. founded by mass murdering rapists during nakba, populated with pedophiles, scammers and vile settlers from across the world who left there country to avoid arrest and murder families to steal their home. this vile genocide and rampant propaganda with bribery of politicians everywhere will be used as a weapon against them when the tide turns. its like giving nazis all the evidence for their stereotypes of jewish people.
So anti-semitic. I bet she didn’t even condemn Hamas for what they made Israel do!
