So have they released proof of the complex tunnel network and Hamas headquarters under the hospital yet?

All I’ve seen is a hole that looks like it goes into someone’s basement and some guns they planted. 🙄

They have shown that there are rooms down there but not anything that shows concrete that it waa used as such.

I won’t be satisfied without them finding that the basement actually connects to a tunnel network. Otherwise it’s… just a basement.

Same here. I’m very sceptical of the Israelis in general… They are killing indiscriminately without any consequences.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

because they built it.

Here is a video of the rhetoric surrounding the tunnels being dissected by the Majority Report with Sam Seder.

I’m aware but tbh unless that’s actually connected to a wider tunnel network it’s still just a large basement.

A basement Israel built and then subsequently used as justification for war crimes. Oorah!

TL;DW’es

because they built it.

“It’s already known for many years that they have in the bunkers that originally was built by Israeli contractors underneath Shifa were used as a command post of the Hamas”.

This is the main part of the quote from former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak. The host of this video had already been making this claim well before, however this may be the first time in recent public statements that an Israeli politician has publicly admitted the fact. The first half of the video is excellent, after that they kind of lose focus and start talking in generalised statements (not that they’re necessarily wrong, they just stop talking about specific events).


Here is a video of the rhetoric surrounding the tunnels being dissected by the Majority Report with Sam Seder.

Basically 10 minutes of talking heads discussing the clip in the first video, which was already discussed for 6 minutes there. They spend the first 4 minutes leading up to actually playing the 2 minute clip, then the last 4 minutes jerking themselves off and mocking his slow speech in his 2nd language, with a dash of Trump impressionisms.


The first video is more worth watching than the 2nd, imo, but both devolve into some form of rhetoric, rather than criticising specific examples.

Talking heads belong in voodoo, not in news.

Just an FYI, OP dedicates his account to spamming anti-Israel articles from Al Jazeera.

I did before Israel started cracking down on dissenters. Many of the journalists I’ve paid attention to haven’t been posting much lately. Even then, Haaretz has been under fire and threat from the Israeli goverment. Luckily, there are still vocal Jewish and Israeli voices outside Israel, but they’re less news and more perspectives and opinions which aren’t fit to be main posts in this community. But if I do find a perspective interesting, like how Norman Finklestein relates the attitudes of Palestinians now to the Jews persecuted back in the Holocaust, then I’ll find a way to leave it in the comments. :D

Yeah Israel strictly controls coverage of their war on Gaza and subjects all footage to military review. It’s fucked.

Israel also cracked down on Al Jazeera, and many Israelis are now afraid of speaking out against the government and their bloodthirsty supporters.

If you’re asking, you’re either uniformed — in which case just Google it — or already set in your world bias.

no WHY do you think it is an issue to report what is israel doing right now? IN YOUR OWN WORDS.

My World Bias is pretty simple: Killing innocent people (under false pretense), killing medical personell is an atrocity, occupying land that isnt your own is bad (russo ukranian war, israel palestina war), torturing people is evil, and war crimes are bad. Hamas is evil, and so is Israel/IDF.
