[NSFW] جرائم الحرب الإسرائيلية مستمرة: غارة جوية أخرى على مستشفى!

What's Israel's excuse for the air strike? Another Hamas rocket misfire.

Israel's War Crimes Continue: Another Air Strike On A Hospital!

Be warned, there is graphic images and video.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

Cry more!

Note: This is an opinion piece with sources from al Jazeera. 

It may be flagged due to allegations of violations.

Please report any community guidelines. However, may sure you have evidence that I committed such violations. 

Google has censoring criticism in regards to the most polarizing controversy in the world. The conflict in the Middle East between Israel and Palestine.

Briefly, I stated that Palestinians deserve the right to freedom.

Israel commits more war crimes and the U.S. allows it by looking the other way when it comes to these atrocities. 

The Israeli government shut off water, fuel, food, electricity and sewage in the Gaza Strip similar to the Russians when they invaded Ukraine.

Several Israeli top leaders are calling Palestinian civilians "animals", "savages" and are saying things similar to how Russians view Ukrainian civilians.

The U.S. lawmakers are drafting a war funding budget for Israel.

The al-Shifa Hospital was struck by Israel. They will deny it and the American president will say it was the other team.

These are Palestinian children. They are not terrorists. They are not animals. They are innocent lives and Israel is indiscriminately killing them.

The pressure is on and we are seeing the power of social media. More young Americans are sympathetic to the plight of the Palestinians. That is really key to the how we are going to pressure the Democrats to abandon their stance on Israel.

Israel does not have the right to committing a genocide against Palestinians.

President Joe Biden better change course or else. He will see his reelection chances decline by April 2024 where it will be set in stone. Half of Americans view Biden unfavorably. 

Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris haven't gotten to panic mode yet. They do see the writing on the wall.

Democratic and Republican House Members who voted to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) will rule the day. They are looking for a primary challenge to uproot them. I say we need more young, Muslim and non religious people engaged to fundamentally change the status quo.

Congress is out of touch. 

Guess who is going to believe the lies that Hamas was having an underground tunnel underneath the al-Shaifa Hospital?

Biden, Congress and the junk food media.

Targeting ambulances is a war crime.

Israel has attacked four hospitals in Gaza, including the enclave’s biggest medical complex, resulting in what appear to be multiple casualties, the health ministry in the Hamas-governed enclave has said.

Israel’s military struck a yard at the al-Shifa Hospital complex, where thousands of displaced Palestinians are sheltering, health ministry spokesperson Ashraf al-Qudra said on Friday.

This is the last straw! That is straight up terrorism. 

Russia did it to Ukrainian hospitals in its invasion in 2022. The United States and European Union called for a war crimes tribunal. 

What happened to the standards?

I am calling for an immediate end to military aid to Israel and for the United States to sever ties with Israel. This is likely going to be ignored.

“Israel is now undertaking these dangerous steps against the hospitals to put them completely out of commission and subsequently displace the people sheltering in them, as well as the patients and medics,” al-Qudra told Al Jazeera.

Israel’s military has said that Hamas operates a command center at the site of the hospital, including entrances to its extensive tunnel network, which Hamas and hospital officials have denied.

Israeli officials did not immediately comment on reports of the latest strikes.

Mohammad Abu Salmiya, director general of al-Shifa Hospital, said the strike hit civilians located next to a number of journalists in the yard, wounding four, including two critically.

“This led to a lot of casualties, including critical injuries. It could have been a massacre in this place because of the number of people in this complex,” Abu Salmiya told Al Jazeera.


“Before that, they bombed a building very close to the hospital. And now, there are heavy clashes and heavy bombing next to the hospital.”

Abu Salmiya said that medics and patients were in a state of fear due to near-constant explosions near the facility.

“Not a second goes by without bombing close to the hospital. Many of the hospital’s windows have been broken, and there is fear and anxiety amongst the medics and the patients and the displaced people,” he said.

This is a war against the hospitals and a war against all the [Palestinian] citizens.”

Video of the apparent aftermath of the attack showed several people screaming and scrambling for cover, and an injured man lying on the pavement in a pool of blood.

Al-Qudra said that two children’s hospitals, al-Rantisi and al-Nasser, had also been hit by “direct attacks and bombardments” on Friday.

During the 2023 Israel–Hamas war, hospital administrators at al-Shifa said the hospital was overwhelmed with wounded and dying people, operating well over its 500 bed capacity, and was running short on fuel, beds, and medical supplies. The hospital is also housing thousands of displaced Palestinians seeking shelter from airstrikes during the war.

On November 3, amid the 2023 Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip, an Israeli airstrike hit an ambulance convoy, resulting in dozens of wounded and several deaths. According to Israel, the ambulances were being used to transport Hamas fighters and weapons, a charge Hamas denied. According to Gaza officials, the ambulances were transporting critical injured patients from the hospital to the Rafah crossing with Egypt. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said the strike killed 15 people. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was "horrified by the reported attack in Gaza on an ambulance convoy outside Al-Shifa hospital" while World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said he was "utterly shocked".

On November 6, Israeli forces struck and destroyed the solar panels atop of Al-Shifa Hospital, leaving the facility totally reliant on back-up generators powered by rapidly dwindling fuel supplies. With almost no fuel left in its tanks to keep its one generator operating, it's only a matter of time until the hospital is forced to turn off essential equipment like ventilators and dialysis machines, leaving patients to die. Since the beginning of the war, the hospital's primary water supplies in northern Gaza—a desalination plant and an Israeli pipeline—have been cut off. The hospital currently only receives saline groundwater, which is unfit for hygiene and drinking.

Let this sink in.

Following the 2023 Hamas resistance against occupation by Israel, the IDF said that they had captured and interrogated two Nukhba Force members. According to the IDF, Hamas has been using medical facilities in the Gaza Strip, especially Al-Shifa hospital, to shield themselves from Israeli strikes and to store weapons and ammunition. The Israeli internal security service Shin Bet also released a video they said was an interrogation of a Nukhba Force member in which a handcuffed man said there is an extensive underground complex operated by Hamas beneath the hospital. The IDF Spokesperson's Unit has accused Hamas of using the hospital as cover, citing videos and intelligence. Hamas rejected the accusation wholesale, saying that Israel was attempting to justify an attack on the hospital and saying the Israeli accusations "no basis in truth" and that Israel had fabricated evidence. Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a resident doctor called the assertion of Hamas using the hospital an "outlandish excuse" and said that it was impossible to evacuate critically injured patients.

I will no longer call Hamas a terrorist group from this point on. I have gotten tired of this forced narrative that the occupied are the terrorist. The Israeli Defence Force is a terrorist organization. They have committed unlawful acts and crimes against humanity.

Hamas an acronym of its official name, the Islamic Resistance Movement (حركة المقاومة الإسلامية Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah), is a Palestinian Sunni Islamist political and military organization governing the Gaza Strip of the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories.

The Gaza Strip is currently under blockade. Israel and Hamas have fought a number of wars there, including in 2008–09, in 2012 and in 2014. Initiating the 2023 war, Hamas launched "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood" and its fighters broke through the Gaza barrier, attacked Israeli military bases, massacred civilians and took civilian and soldier hostages back to Gaza. The attack has been described as the biggest military setback for Israel since the 1973 Arab–Israeli War. In response, Israel intensified the existing Gaza blockade and began a large-scale aerial bombardment campaign over the territory in preparation for a ground assault, having announced its intention to destroy Hamas. The European Parliament and the US have also called for the elimination of Hamas.

The reasons for the resistance is mainly the occupation by Israel. The organization has vowed to resist the occupiers. They literally gotten fed up with Israeli Occupation Force killing civilians, defacing the al-Aqsa Mosque, injuring children in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.

Thanks to the corruption of Benjamin Netanyahu and social media, we are finally seeing the tide turning. Israel for the first time is seeing a global backlash. The world will no longer buy the notion Israel having the right to defend itself.

The Israeli government is fascism. The U.S., Great Britain and European Union are going to find out that their ally is the real bad guy.

Israel "Pauses" Genocide!

The U.S. is on the wrong side of this.

Do not trust Israel when it comes to negotiations. They never listen to the United States when it comes to engagement. This will only end with betrayal and nonstop air strikes. 

So here we go, Israel will honor a a four hour "pause" so Hamas can release all the hostages.

Trust me, Israel likely carpet bombed everyone and will make up claims that Hamas killed them or did something heinous. 

The U.S. and Qatar had negotiated this.

Qatar warned of dire consequences if Israel continues on this path to destruction.

Since President Joe Biden and most of Congress refuse calls for a ceasefire, American lawmakers agree on a pause.

Israeli officials agreed Thursday to pause fighting in Northern Gaza for four hours a day to allow for civilians to leave as fighting in the war with Hamas continues, White House officials said.

National Security Council spokesman John Kirby announced the decision to reporters on Thursday morning. He said Israel plans to announce each of the pauses at least three hours in advance, The Associated Press reported.

“We’ve been told by the Israelis that there will be no military operations in these areas over the duration of the pause and that this process is starting today,” he said, according to CNN. He called the pauses “steps in the right direction.”

Joe Biden said Thursday that he has been pushing for a three-day pause in fighting to help secure the release of hostages being held by Hamas.

“I’ve asked for a pause longer than three days,” he told reporters.

In a post on social media, Israel Defense Forces highlighted that the announced pauses do not amount to a ceasefire.

“There are tactical, long pauses for humanitarian aid for Gazan civilians,” military officials said. “These tactical pauses are limited in time and area.”

Tone Deaf!

People Magazine puts Patrick Dempsey on their cover, 20 years later. The magazine continues to be tone deaf when it comes to this.

People Magazine released its annual Most Sexiest Man Alive and once again for the third time a white man graces the cover. No person of color.

Actor Patrick Dempsey graces the People Magazine cover.

Last two covers were Chris Evans and Paul Rudd.

How long will it take to put a person of color on People's Sexiest Man Alive?

When will they retire this?

It's tone deaf and doesn't represent beauty. I mean, what gives them the right to define who the fuck is the "sexiest?"

The annual feature the "Sexiest Man Alive" is billed as a benchmark of male attractiveness and typically includes only famous people. It is determined using a procedure similar to the procedure used for Time's Person of the Year. The origin of the title was a discussion on a planned story on Mel Gibson. Someone exclaimed, "Oh my God, he is the sexiest man alive!" And someone else said, "You should use that as a cover line."

Of the nearly 40 years of issuing this title, guess how many were people of color?

They had five Black men on the cover.

It took a pressure campaign to force People to reevaluate its nomination process.

Looks like it will happen once again.

People Magazine picks its "Sexiest Man Alive" cover. Notice a pattern?

People Magazine does have a problem. The magazine doesn't pick people of color. The magazine defines White as the "most sexiest" and "most beautiful." They have only five men and four women of color gracing the magazine.
Not a problem at all. People Magazine carefully picks the candidate. They pick the celebrity who is newsworthy. This isn't about color. This about magazine sales.
I don't read People Magazine.
You guys have Essence, Ebony, Jet and Vibe Magazine to put Black celebrities on.
 

See the magazine has not placed Latino, Asian, Brown, Indigenous or disabled actors in their Most Sexiest Man Alive. It took a pressure campaign to at least get a Black actor on the damn magazine cover.

And for the last time, what qualifies as "sexiest?"

Many are getting tired of this. I know I am. I am tired of celebrity tabloids using these titles to divide people.

People Magazine gives Americans the impression you got to be white, skinny, rich and at least newsworthy.

With a readership of 46.6 million adults in 2009, People had the largest audience of any American magazine, but it fell to second place in 2018 after its readership significantly declined to 35.9 million. People had $997 million in advertising revenue in 2011, the highest advertising revenue of any American magazine.

In 2006, it had a circulation of 3.75 million and revenue expected to top $1.5 billion

I expect conservatives to draw conclusions and use the minority owned magazines as a cover. 

 Yeah, did you know that Ebony and Jet were started way before People Magazine?

John H. Johnson got fed up with magazines covers showing only White people. So he started his own and it became a success. Ebony and Jet are not as big as People but managed to reach an audience that feels neglected by whitewashing mmagazines like People.
