There’s a rationale…
They want to kill as many Palestinians as they can.
And they know shit like this just creates the next generation of Hamas. So Israel gets to keep doing this for decades. The worst thing that can happen to Netanyahu and his party is lasting peace.
Before 10/7 there had been talks for months about how he was going to lose power.
How convenient for him, for a massive tragedy to occur which rallys the citizens together towards his cause, just as his rule was about to end.
It ain’t just convenient, israeli intelligence ignored Egypt’s calls that Hamas was about to do something big, and just let the attack happen because it’s good news. They sensationalise the attack, then use that to justify a genocide and bombing hospitals.
Israel has been lying about this land grab since the start. BEFORE the start.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Using on-the-ground footage, satellite imagery and mapping software, a Sky News visual investigation found that Israel’s evacuation orders have instead been chaotic and contradictory and that a neighbourhood in Deir al Balah was hit one day after the IDF said evacuees could flee there.
“This is exactly why we as the UN have been saying that there is no safe place in Gaza,” Ajith Sunghay, head of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in the occupied Palestinian territories, told Sky News.
The Musabeh home lay in the heart of Deir al Balah, less than 300 metres from Shuhada street - a road explicitly marked by the Israeli army as a route by which civilians could safely reach the city.
The footage below, captured by Gaza-based journalist Yosef al-Saifi, shows the immediate aftermath: a woman and two children calling for help on top of the ruined home, a street covered in rubble, and a car on fire.
Preliminary research carried out by Airwars, an organisation specialising in the verification of airstrike casualties, found online tributes to one of those killed in the attack, Mohammad Kamal Abu Musabeh and further posts about the injured infant Layan.
Brian Finucane, an expert legal adviser with the non-profit International Crisis Group, says that there is a requirement on warring parties to provide effective advanced warnings to civilians, where feasible.
