…I’m certainly not holding my breath waiting for an apology from anyone in this thread for being wrong about Al Shifa. I’m not holding my breath waiting for an apology for how people reacted when I said the IDF were targeting hospitals.
From today:
One by one they are being shut down. And it means in the few remaining hospitals they look like this: (link spoiled as it contains disturbing video of patients getting medical attention on the floor of the hospital)
This war is not targeting Hamas. It has targeted civilian infrastructure, housing complexes, government buildings, schools, farms, hospitals, refugee camps, churches, Mosques, universities. It has targeted innocent men, women, children. 6000 dead children is the latest estimate.
People were driven from the north to the south, where they were told “it was safe.” And now the south is the frontline. “It was a trap” they are saying.
After nearly 60 days of the siege, that have effectively cut off all access to food, water, electricity, fuel, OCHA are reporting overcrowded shelters and outbreaks of infections and diseases such as Hepatitis A. Cindy McCain, director of the United Nations World Food Programme, has said Gaza is on the brink of famine. People that I’ve been following are now sick, some bed-ridden for days, because it isn’t just the bombs that are killing people. Disease, infection, starvation. We are at that stage of the conflict now.
So no, you won’t be getting an apology from me. People are being driven from north to the south, civilian infrastructure being destroyed as they go. 60 days of siege with zero sign of that changing. The strategy and the tactics tell us exactly what the plan is.
