The IDF and Shin Bet security agency on Saturday night named 19 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror operatives that it said it killed in an airstrike Saturday morning on a Hamas and Islamic Jihad command room at the Taba’een school in Gaza City.

    Well that makes up for the other 81 dead.

    Oh wait, no it doesn’t at all.

      Whether there were any legitimate targets is entirely inconsequential. They’re after a body count. Nothing more. They just wanna stack corpses.

      I think their AI targeting machine was programmed to accept a 1 to 100 ratio of Hamas vs civilians. I guess stuff like that makes them the most moral army in the world.

          They are still a democracy until the fascists in power take over the judicial (bibi was trying) and cancel elections altogether. The left and the army want bibi to go. However, the government can’t fall, because bibi doesn’t want to go to jail and the ultraorthodox far-right will collapse government if there is a cease-fire…meanwhile Israel can’t be pressured from the outside because the US has bipartisan unconditional support and the EU is MIA…threats by Iran only embolden bibi to start a fight so they can destroy Iran’s nuclear tech…

          Either the army rebels and demands new elections🙄…or someone amnisties bibi on condition of him calling new elections and going into exile😑 …I’m making shit up at this point…

      As of now the Palestinian health authorities haven’t released the names of those 81 that are allegedly dead. Usually they don’t take long at all. In the meantime the IDF has released the 19 terrorists that totally weren’t hiding inside a school and are now dead. I assume most of those 81 don’t exist.

        Why do you need to see a list of dead people’s names as if people aren’t dying when there’s a war going on?

          Hamas is known to inflate the number of dead and injured, cry wolf over and over and, in general, lie in order to make Israel and The IDF look bad. All while painting themselves as poor, innocent sheep.

          The first thing they did was to accuse The IDF of killing over 100 children by dropping a 2 ton bomb in the middle of a school.

          As we can see, neither the number of dead, the munitions used or the demography that was targeted (Hamas militants vs children) are factually correct.

          We are, in fact, at war with a terrorist organization. Targeting them while trying to minimize civilian casualties is acceptable and is what’s actually happening.

            It’s “known” that Tim Walz quit the military so he couldn’t see combat, even though that isn’t true.

            That’s the thing about stuff that is “known.”

      The name thing is so stupid. You could easily have 5 different people with the same exact name especially when there limited number of families in small area.

    Like Israel already bombed almost all schools and universities in Gaza.

    You can more easily rule over the uneducated, and I guess that’s the entire point.

        You are gross for justifying killing children with bombs instead of being a man and go there on ground to rescue your hostages.

        Does someone have to spell out to you what an insurgency is? Or what asymmetric fighting is?

        Is the IOF really so incompetent it has no access to the last 40 years of American imperialist strategy? Or can we drop the facade of logic and say this is about causing as much collateral damage/trauma as possible soas to cleanse Palestine of Palestinians.

        The world knows a frontier war when we see one.

    Remember the Al Shifa hospital Hamas bunker HQ? It’s been almost a year since Israel took control of it and we still haven’t seen one shred of evidence. That’s how much credibility they have.
