    Modem Holocaust complete with an industrial scale cover up.

    We’re going to be reading history books written by Israelis in US classrooms that tell all about their glorious war of liberation in another ten years.

        One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

    Journalists do not get enough credit. Recently I heard the full ‘oh the humanity’ recording. It shocks me that its used as a joke because you hear the full thing and you follow the reporter as he starts to break down at what he is seeing its pretty horrific. But the whole time he stayed there telling people what was happening because as a journilist its his job to make sure the world understand what is going on. The video was being recorded separately and was certainly not being broadcasted for all he knew the job of informing the country what was happening rested soley on his shoulders and he did is absolute best and you can tell how hard it was for him to maintain some kind of composure.

    I’m surprised the NY Times published this information, even if only as an opinion piece, given how long and hard (oh, so hard, with some of the slimiest half-truths, denials, cherry-picking and most differently charged language used anywhere) they’ve been propagandizing for the baby murderers.

    By the way, it’s hilarious that somebody created an account for a badly made spam both just to flood two posts related to Palestine and got banned within 1h or or so for 2 major communities.

    I’ve totally lost track of what this post is about because I’m just looking at the 8000 mod removed comments by SlackShaolin.

    Sadly when propaganda is 3/4 of the war, a lauded journalist is a type of commander. This was a calculated strike I assume.

    Even if one takes Israel’s allegations at face value — which I absolutely do not, given Israel’s track record — and entertains the idea that in 2013, at the age of 17, al-Sharif joined Hamas in some form, what are we to make of that choice? Hamas has been the governing authority of Gaza since 2006.

    So… maybe he was Hamas, what’s the big deal?

    Yeah if the guy was Hamas, he’s a valid target.

    So there was a lot of outrage over his death by news organizations around the world last week. Israel presented their evidence, and then… silence. That indicates news organizations consider Israel’s evidence to be at least credible.

    And then this opinion column comes out and this guy is saying “He’s not Hamas… and even if he was, it’s ok for him to be Hamas.” It smacks of the Trumpian “I didn’t do that, and if I did, it’s perfectly fine” style of logic.

    The silence of news organizations (other than Al Jazeera and alt media trash) on this and then this opinion piece making excuses about why it’s perfectly fine for Anas al-Sharif to be a member of Hamas… it kinda seems like he actually was a member of Hamas.
