"Should Israeli hospitals refuse medical treatment to Hamas terrorists?"

"Israel has consistently provided medical care to Palestinian terrorists, including leaders of Palestinian resistance movements."

A slick propaganda video released by #Hamas less than a month ago confirms reports that the militant Islamist group’s fighters conducted open-air, live fire #rehearsals for its devastating raid on southern Israel — and made no secret of it. 

But the video was also a work of #misdirection that may have fooled Israeli security forces into thinking Hamas planned attacks on Israeli settlements on the occupied West Bank, and not on southern Israel where it struck with stomach-turning brutality over the weekend

9/11, Gaza 

9/11 was a terrorist attack that killed thousands of US citizens. But Iraqi children didn't commit 9/11. Using white phosphorus against kids is a war crime. Intentionally denying kids water is a war crime. Indefinitely locking up "enemy combatants" without charge is a human rights violation.

👩🏼🇺🇲 "Terrorism is bad. I lost family members on 9/11. But I don't want my government committing war crimes on my behalf. We should not use WP on kids in Fallujah. We should restore food and water."

FANTASTIC news from Lundy

"There are more seabirds nesting on the island of Lundy than at any time since the 1930s, conservationists have revealed.

The tiny island in the Bristol Channel, a globally famed location for Britain’s seabirds, is now home to 25,000 Manx shearwaters – 95% of England’s breeding population – as well as 1,335 puffins and more than 150 pairs of storm petrels, a species that only arrived on the island in 2014."

@zleap @exador23 I disagree. The US is in a very different place from where it was under Bush and Trump, even Obama. It is inconceivable that Blinken and the rest of the Biden administration would push for a wider war, especially with Europe in such a dangerous place, a embers smouldering in the Pacific. And, as you say, the link to Iran is tenuous at best, for all the conspiracist ranting from the Trumpies and Bannonies about how "Biden is funding Iran".

@exador23 @zleap Thank you. That is a much stronger report. That said, the wider context is pretty awful so in a sense this is only a relatively small increment.
There are few heroes here. And no winners. There is nothing but horror.

Jusft listening to LLoyd Austin. Hamas targets civilians, democracies don't

So why have they dropped 6000 bombs on Gaza
Why have they cut off food, fuel and power to Gaza
Why have they dropped White phosphorous on Gaza

These are WAR CRIMES and NOT self defence.

Even the UN have issued warnings about the demand from isreal for Palestinians to move south 1.1 million of them, despite he warning of a humanitarian catastrophy which have gone igored.

Why should the west be pushing for humanitarian corridors, if Isreal had any morality respect for international law, it would ensure these were set up to protect civilians, eso as they claim to be targeting Hamas.

Interesting that the BBC don't appear to be making any mention of the use of White Phosphorous.
