‘A Mass Assassination Factory’: Inside Israel’s Calculated Bombing Of Gaza

December 1, 2023 Yuval Abraham, +972 Magazine. , , , , , ,
The Israeli army’s expanded authorization for bombing non-military targets, the loosening of constraints regarding expected civilian casualties, and the use of an artificial intelligence system to generate more potential targets than ever before, appear to have contributed to the destructive nature of the initial stages of Israel’s current war on the Gaza Strip, an investigation by +972 Magazine and Local Call reveals. These factors, as described by current and former Israeli intelligence members, have likely played a role in producing what has been one of the deadliest military campaigns against Palestinians since the Nakba of 1948.

International Day In Solidarity With The Palestinian People

December 1, 2023 People's Dispatch. , , , , ,
On the International Day in Solidarity with the Palestinian People, the people of the world are demanding a fully liberated Palestine. November 29 was also the last day of the temporary pause in the Israeli war on Gaza, negotiated between Israel and Hamas. However, a day long extension was achieved through negotiations just ahead of its expiration. Mass movements around the world are standing unequivocally with the people of Palestine, facing a genocidal war in Gaza with at least 15,000 Palestinians killed by Israel. Even during the pause in aggression, Israeli forces continue to kill Palestinians, recently targeting the Jenin refugee camp and slaughtering two children in a raid last night.

‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 54: Two Children Killed By Israeli Forces

November 29, 2023 Leila Warah, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
While many of the people in Gaza are spending Wednesday, the last day of the temporary truce, trying to collect basic necessities like food and cooking oil in preparation for the Israeli bombardment to resume, political leaders are discussing yet another extension. Under the four-day truce deal, which began on Friday and has already been extended by two more days, Hamas has released 60 of about 240 captives from the Gaza Strip, and Israel has released 180 Palestinian political prisoners, all women and children. Another round of hostage exchanges is expected to take place on Wednesday evening. Ghazi Hamad, a member of Hamas’s political bureau, says the group has been working “very hard” with the mediating countries to “reach a compromise” and “extend the ceasefire.”

Israeli Tank Gunner Reveals Orders To Fire Indiscriminately Into Kibbutz

November 28, 2023 Wyatt Reed and Max Blumenthal, The Grayzone. , , , , , , , ,
Firsthand testimony by admittedly inexperienced Israeli tank operators reveals orders to open fire upon Israeli communities when Palestinian militants breached the fences encircling Gaza on October 7. A glowing profile of an all-female tank company by Israel’s N12 News network contains admissions by the 20-year-old captain — identified only as ‘Karni’ — that she was ordered by a “panicked” soldier to open fire on homes in the Holit kibbutz whether they contained civilians or not. Ten Israelis were killed in Holit on October 7; no children were among the dead. “The soldier points and tells me, “shoot there — the terrorists are there,”” the captain recounts in the newly-released footage, noting that when she asked “are there civilians there?,” her compatriot simply replied, “I don’t know,” and ordered her to “just shoot” a tank round into the buildings anyway.

Australia Too Is Aiding Gaza Massacre

November 28, 2023 Kellie Tranter, Consortium News. , , , , , , , ,
Australian-equipped Israeli Air Force F-35 Joint Strike Fighters are being used to commit what amounts to war crimes in Gaza by bombing civilians and providing aerial support for a murderous ground invasion. The Lockheed-Martin F-35 Joint Strike Fighter global supply program is a co-operative partnership, with Australia an enthusiastic member and part of the global supply chain. The Australian government cannot escape the uses to which these aircraft are being put. A week ago came news that Israel is stockpiling spare parts from the global supply chain, that Australia contributes to, for its F-35 ‘Adir’ fighter out of a central distribution hub in Europe.

Media Outlets Call For An End To Israel’s Massacre Of Journalists

November 27, 2023 People's Dispatch. , , , , , , ,
The world is waiting in cautious anticipation amid the four-day pause in hostilities in Gaza, giving Palestinians a brief respite from the incessant Israeli airstrikes. Israel did not cease its bombing of the enclave from October 7, when it declared war on Hamas following the surprise Al-Aqsa Flood Operation launched by Palestinian resistance groups, to the start of the pause on November 24. In these nearly seven weeks, over 15,000 Palestinians were killed and 33,000 have been injured. The number of missing is around 6,800, many of whom are presumed dead or still trapped under the rubble.

Second Nakba; Same Israeli Lies; Same Western Narrative

November 26, 2023 Jonathan Cook, Consortium News. , , , , , , , , , , ,
History is repeating itself — and every politician and establishment journalist is pretending they cannot see what is staring them in the face. There is a collective and wilful refusal to join the dots in Gaza, even when they point in one direction only. There has been a consistent pattern to Israel’s behaviour since its creation 75 years ago — just as there has been a consistent pattern to the “see no evil, hear no evil” response of western powers. In 1948, in events the Palestinians call their “Nakba,” or Catastrophe, 80 percent of Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their lands in what became the self-declared Jewish state of Israel.

‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 49: Four-Day Truce Begins In Gaza

November 24, 2023 Palestine Bureau, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
A planned four-day temporary ceasefire mediated by Qatar began at 7 a.m. on Friday in the Gaza Strip after 48 days of relentless bombardment and fighting. A first batch of hostages is expected to be released by Hamas and Israel on Friday afternoon, as part of a prisoner exchange deal that is set to see the exchange of 50 Israelis held by Palestinian resistance groups in Gaza since October 7 with 150 Palestinian women and children detained in Israeli prisons. At 4 p.m. local time, 13 Israeli women and children are scheduled to be taken to the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, then flown back to Israel via helicopter.

Global Condemnation Of Their Crimes Spells Doom For Zionist Criminals

November 24, 2023 Mark P. Fancher, Black Agenda Report. , , , , , , ,
In the gray, smoldering rubble of Gaza, hope is elusive. The wails of babies clutched in the arms of staggering, broken, bloody Palestinian civilians are surpassed in volume only by Zionist bombs that shake the earth, level multilevel structures and create scenes so hellish that even vultures probably pass on the chance to feast on a massive banquet of carnage. The world strains to find even the slightest reason for encouragement, and perhaps the only positive that flows dialectically from a profound negative is that the truth rises from Gaza’s ruins more brightly than a thousand suns.

Israel’s War On Hospitals

November 21, 2023 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. , , , , , ,
Israel is not attacking hospitals in Gaza because they are “Hamas command centers.” Israel is systematically and deliberately destroying Gaza’s medical infrastructure as part of a scorched earth campaign to make Gaza uninhabitable and escalate a humanitarian crisis. It intends to force 2.3 million Palestinians over the border into Egypt where they will never return. Israel has destroyed and nearly emptied the Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. The Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahia is next. Israel is deploying tanks and armored personnel carriers around the hospital and has fired rounds into the building, killing twelve people.

America Inc.: Top 11 Companies Supporting Israel’s Crimes

November 21, 2023 Lee Camp, BreakThrough News. , , , ,
You would think with all the war crimes and atrocities being committed by Israel right now that US corporations would not want their brand name slapped on top of the rubble that was once a school or a hospital. But that would suggest some sort of conscience. Most companies don't seem to care.  Here are the top 11 corporations deepest in bed with Israel. Let's start with the weapons contractors because they are the most villainous. The stocks of the big war profiteers have shot up since Israel's war on Gaza began. Northrup, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and BAE Systems have gained more than $30 billion in value over just the past few weeks.

Israeli Troops Besiege West Bank Hospitals, Jenin Refugee Camp

November 19, 2023 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , , , ,
Israeli troops concluded a brutal raid in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin on 17 November, killing at least five, injuring over a dozen, and laying siege to several hospitals in the city. The raid began on Thursday evening and extended into the following day. Dozens of military vehicles stormed the city as troops invaded several homes and made arrests. “Dozens of armored vehicles turned up, with bulldozers as well, damaging cars, damaging the roads,” said Al-Jazeera correspondent Sara Khairat. Heavy clashes erupted between the army and resistance fighters. In a statement around midnight, the Jenin branch of Hamas’ armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, announced that fighters were “engaged in heroic armed clashes alongside all resistance factions in the camp, targeting the occupation army with heavy barrages of bullets and explosive devices.”

UNRWA: Deliberate Attempts Being Made To Strangle Its Activities In Gaza

November 18, 2023 People's Dispatch. , , , , ,
The United Nation Relief and Work Agency (UNRWA) has claimed that there is a deliberate attempt to strangle its activities in the besieged Gaza strip by Israel which may lead to the shutting down all its humanitarian activities. Speaking to the press on Thursday, November 16, Philippe Lazzarini, head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, said there is a risk of the agency shutting down all its humanitarian work in the region due to lack of fuel and consistent attacks on its activities. “I do believe there is a deliberate attempt to strangle our operation and paralyze the UNRWA operation,” Lazzarini said.

‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 40: Israeli Forces Storm Al-Shifa Hospital

November 16, 2023 Mustafa Abu Sneineh, Mondoweiss. , , , , , , ,
Israeli forces and tanks stormed on Wednesday morning Gaza’s largest hospital, Al-Shifa, following a late-night threat call to the hospital’s medical staff warning them of an imminent incursion inside the sprawling complex at “any minute”. Currently housing thousands of patients, doctors, and civilian families, Al-Shifa has been a primary target of Israel since the beginning of its war on Gaza. In recent days Israel and the US have been ramping up claims of alleged “intelligence” to support Israel’s allegation of a Hamas command center that it says lies beneath the hospital. Following the threatening call on Tuesday night, Al Jazeera reported that hospital staff warned Israeli forces that there were thousands of civilians and patients in the wards.

‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 39: ‘Sentencing Al-Shifa Hospital To Death’

November 15, 2023 Mustafa Abu Sneineh, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
All of the Palestinian hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip have gone out of service in the sixth week of Israel’s war on Gaza, including Al-Shifa, the largest medical complex. Hundreds of lives are at risk of death, and thousands of civilians remain trapped inside the hospitals’ premises, Gaza’s Deputy Health Minister Yousef Abu el-Rish told AFP. “We cannot reach the dozens of women who will give birth. We received reports of cases in which women gave birth in the street or at home without a midwife. Snipers shoot at anyone moving from building to building inside the hospital,” Abu el-Rish explained. He said that they were forced to evacuate patients and medical staff over the weekend from Al-Rantisi Hospital, after receiving threats from the Israeli forces.
