"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."

This is cruelty beyond the point of comical, it's fanatical

They get off on it. I'm not joking. I would share videos of it, but there are too many. The hatred is cultural and engrained in society.

Quite possibly the worst thing I have read in a long time. The bounds of human cruelty are endless. Truly, we live in hell.

The silence by the leaders of my country is deafening

They're waiting until they can throw up their hands and say it's too late to intervene, before declaring that they never supported the genocide they supported.

History may be written by the victors, but the younger generations get to have the last word. We will never forget.

Too bad the citizens of my country didn't fucking wait for the timeline they want and assumed could demand.... and history will remember the worthless, genocidal war criminals that occupied the halls of power when those halls of power were being DIRECTED by normal every day voters in as clear as possible terms to stand the fuck down and stop the genocide of innocent Palestinians PERIOD... before it keeps spiralling into a much larger hell where there will be many more bodies of Palestinians, Jews and who knows who else will become the next target given the extremely precarious nature of geopolitics at this juncture and how conflicts evolve into larger and larger wars in ways that don't interface with rationality.

There are things worse than death, like spending the last 10 seconds of your life realizing that people will never forget your name as your are enveloped by a sense in the deepest fibers of your being that if there is an afterlife you aren't going to the good part of it.

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.

Real death toll is 200,000+ I guarantee it.

well I sure am glad gen z and swing voters decided to throw away my future in exchange for putting a stop to this OH WAIT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN, AS ANYONE WITH A SINGLE FUNCTIONING BRAIN CELL COULD HAVE PREDICTED.

Thats what you take away from this? Have some empathy for the people being murdered by your tax dollars, including by your last President, you little Nazi supporting freak.

If anything, Kamala threw your future away because she would support these horrible child-killing maniacs than defeat Trump.

Thats what you take away from this?

Every ... fucking ... thread (that reaches some minimum critical size). People have to go "oh, are you happy not voting for Kamala."

I see it how you do. Kamala would rather throw the election than go against genocide.

If you want to win the country back, you need to unite with this people and get them back on your side.
