Mohammad died in hospital, one of 235 Palestinian children and teenagers killed by Israeli forces on the West Bank – plus another five killed by settlers themselves – since 7 October 2023. That date marked the start of the Gaza war, triggered by a Hamas attack on southern Israel which killed about 1,200 Israelis (of which about 800 were civilians and 38 were children).

I love how every liberal zionist outlet keeps emphasizing this and spewing the same exact bullshit, line for line.

Just state since October 7th. Majority of civilians killed were casualties of Israel’s Hannibal Doctrine. Also, the gall to call this “The Gaza War”, when Zionists have been attacking all of Palestine the moment they’ve arrived during Mandate. If not through rape, murder, and theft, then by demolitions, kidnappings, and settlements. Nonstop oppression since day 0.

I remember reading that the initial election had a much larger gap at 600k with Ivan Cepeda leading. That gap being narrower in the run-off at 200k with Abelardo de la Espriella in the lead is very suspicious.

That may be true, but you yourself do not. Our race, class, and background explain how we came to be, but they do not define us; our choices do. You chose to be against oppression and injustice even if it meant sacrificing many comforts. Keep your chin up.

I was sort of hinting at that. There were a few examples of that in the quiz listed, but it seems that website is down.

Nobody encourages anti-Semitism more than Israel itself.

I get what you mean, but the topic of anti-Jewish racism should never have even been relevant in the conversation surrounding Zionist colonialism, subsequent atrocities, and oppression against the Levantine peoples starting in the late 1800s.

It would be like giving credence to the concept of “anti-aryanism” in the context of the holocaust. Anyone with a modicum of integrity would laugh that shit out rather than take it seriously. Oppression is oppression; it matters not the identity of the perpetrators nor the victims, only their intent and actions.

The only reason we let this shit fly with Israel is due to internalized Jewish-exceptionalism made possible through decades of systematic indoctrination and propagandization of the Holocaust (e.g. hyperfixation on the identities of the victims rather than the mechanics that allowed such a large-scale atrocity to take place).

This quiz where you guess whether a quote was made by a Nazi or a Zionist will illustrate my point.

Who would have thought that the lesson they would learn from the Holocaust would be to pay it forward?

A reminder that the Zionist project started well before WW1, and that Zionist militias actively sought out help from Nazi Germany. Also, IOF Members themselves identified with notorious Nazi branches.

After three-year-old Rayan was shot, Abu al-Ajeen said that he immediately began screaming, “My son, my son.”

“My leg was bleeding, and my child was dying in my arms, taking his final breaths. I begged them to let me die but to save my son. They refused and offered no assistance,” Abu al-Ajeen recounted. “The soldiers told me, ‘Leave your son.’ I told them I wanted to save him, but they kept ordering me to leave him.”

The father also said that while soldiers discussed his leg injury, he heard some of them speaking Arabic amongst themselves. “Leave him. Cut off his leg,” they said, according to Abu al-Ajeen.

Abu al-Ajeen recounted that the soldiers did tie his bleeding leg in the end, after which they placed him in a military jeep with his son’s body beside him. “They drove off at high speed over bumps and potholes while I sat in the back, handcuffed.”

“Every time I spoke or asked for help, the soldiers shouted at me, ‘Be quiet.’ They would not allow me to make a sound, even if I were crying from pain,” he said.

The father said that while he repeatedly pleaded for help for his son, some soldiers mocked him. “Are you so worried about your son, calling out ‘Aboud, Aboud’ all the time?” they told him, according to Abu al-Ajeen. “They left me bleeding for six continuous hours.”

They drove him and his son from one place to another inside the vehicle while he bled, Abu al-Ajeen continued. Close to midnight, they abandoned them near Kissufim, a crossing point between Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

As the soldiers dropped him off, Abu al-Ajeen lost track of his son and kept asking them where he was. “And they answered me, ‘your son is next to you,’” he said. “I was shocked to discover that they had wrapped him in a black plastic bag and thrown him beside me.”

Bahaa Abu al-Ajeen, the boy’s father, set out that evening with his son, alongside his friend and relative, Khaled Abu Ghrab, to check on farmland they owned in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza. While they were in what they described as a safe area, far from the so-called “Yellow Line” dividing Gaza into two, the two men and the child were surprised by an Israeli force hiding inside a Palestinian house within the designated safe zone. When they approached the house, the soldiers suddenly emerged and surrounded them, Baha Abu al-Ajeen said.

“If we had known there were Israeli soldiers there, we would never have gone,” he told Mondoweiss. “We were walking inside a safe area and heading to another location in the same zone. We had no idea soldiers were hiding there.”

Speaking from a hospital bed at al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in video testimony for Mondoweiss, Abu al-Ajeen recalled that when the soldiers confronted them, his relative told him to sit on the ground. “We sat down to show them that we were unarmed and posed no threat. We regularly use this road inside the safe zone. Then my son started crying loudly out of fear. He had never experienced anything like that before,” he said.

Abu al-Ajeen said he then picked up his son and moved about 50 meters back to calm him down. “As I began walking, the soldiers shouted at me to stop and fired beneath my feet. I stopped immediately. And the moment I stopped, two soldiers pointed their guns at us, and one of them shot my son while he was in my arms. The bullet entered the back of his head and exited through his left eye while he was in my embrace. Then they shot me in the leg.”

The father recalled the moment of the killing when the Israeli soldier aimed before shooting. “The soldier got down on one knee, aimed at my child’s head, and killed him. One bullet,” he said. “I wish they had killed me instead.”

Amal Khalil, 43, was killed in the town of al-Tayri while covering the aftermath of earlier Israeli attacks alongside freelance photographer Zeinab Faraj, who was wounded.

According to reports, an initial air strike hit a car in front of them, prompting the pair to take shelter in a nearby house.

A second strike then hit the house, Lebanon’s health ministry and other sources said.

Rescuers managed to retrieve Faraj, who sustained a head injury. When they returned for Khalil, Israeli forces opened fire on the ambulance and deployed a stun grenade, preventing access to her, according to the health ministry.

Rescuers were only able to reach her hours later, finding her dead.

Excerpt:

Abdelwahab carried bodies from the wreckage, half-closing his eyes so the blood and devastation would not slow him down. He kept going even after the civil defence teams arrived.

“I wore a mask, but I could smell the smoke - and the dead,” he said.

He saw dead bodies of men, women, elders and toddlers. Among those killed was Nader Khalil, who had worked at Rifai Nuts for 35 years.

“He was a nice man. I knew him because he bought water from me every day,” Abdelwahab said. “What did he do to deserve this?”

Report

Excerpt:

One resident of Ras Ein al-Auja in the southern Jordan Valley said harassment targeting his family forced him to leave.

“What pushed me to relocate was the harassment my wife, daughters and daughter-in-law were experiencing. Settlers began approaching the shelters when my son and I left for work,” he said.

“They were watching the women closely, whistling when women went out of the shelters in broad daylight and throwing stones at us at night. I was terrified that something bad might happen to my family because of this constant settlers’ violence when I was away.”

If you disagree tell me one thing about their culture that isnt genocide and rape. They steal too.

Dogs used as tools of rape are mentioned multiple times in the report.

Excerpt:

In this context, a former detainee’s testimony is particularly noteworthy. She is a 42-year-old woman from North Gaza, who was arrested in late October 2024 during her forced displacement from Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip. She reported that abuse started at the moment of her arrest, involving deliberate humiliation such as forcibly removing her hijab and leaving her exposed in freezing conditions, while being the only woman among dozens of male detainees.

The woman recounted that she was later transferred to the Sde Teiman camp, where she was forced at gunpoint to strip completely. Soldiers deliberately uncovered her eyes for brief moments so she could witness two soldiers photographing her naked with their phones, combining humiliation with coerced documentation and the attendant risks of public shaming and blackmail. She added that the abuse peaked on the third day of detention, when four masked soldiers took her to a small room containing a metal table fixed to the floor and equipped with surveillance cameras. There, she was shackled to the table and stripped, while two soldiers took turns violently raping her, and the other two documented the assault on film.

The rape and sexual violence were repeated. The detainee stated that she was left bound, naked, and bleeding throughout the night, before the soldiers returned the following day and repeated the assault. She confirmed that she was raped four times over two consecutive days, twice on each day, before being left completely naked in the room, still watched and filmed through the door.

She further testified that the torture later intensified, involving humiliation, coercion, and blackmail. She was moved to another interrogation room, suspended by her hands, and subjected to repeated electric shocks until she lost consciousness, while being shown photos of her rapes and nude images, and threatened with their publication if she did not “cooperate” with Israeli intelligence. This account from the victim suggests that sexual violence was employed as a means to subjugate and break her spirit. Non- consensual recordings were used for blackmail and threats of exposure, aiming to silence her, deter reporting or seeking justice, and create fear both within and outside the detention setting.

Describing the systematic terror she faced, the victim explained that she used to scream unheard, wished for death rather than remaining bound within their reach, and called her experience “another genocide behind walls.” She mentioned losing track of time in prison, recognising only the number “101,” given by the soldiers instead of her name, symbolising the erasure of identity and the dehumanisation within the detention system.

They seem to still believe in the discredited Biden era philosophy that if you simply do good things people will notice.

Good things like supporting genocidal ethnostates or signing bills to make worker strikes illegal?

Ali and Waad Bani Odeh’s four children were showing off the new clothes they had just bought for the upcoming Eid celebrations as their parents drove home from Nablus in the northern West Bank to their house in the town of Tammun, south of Tubas.

The children joyfully described the colours and styles of their outfits to their visually impaired brother, Othman. Ali glanced back at his children and smiled at his wife, sharing a rare moment together, as his work often kept him away from his family.

It was a perfect Saturday evening for the Palestinian family, violently interrupted when undercover Israeli special forces suddenly peppered the car with bullets, killing the parents and two of their children.

Ali, 37, Waad, 35, and their children, Mohammad and Othman, aged five and seven respectively, were each shot in the head. Only Mustafa, eight, and Khaled, 12, survived, though they sustained shrapnel wounds to the face and head.

The Israeli forces, travelling in a civilian car, opened fire as soon as Ali’s vehicle reached the western part of Tammun.

Soldiers then approached the car, opened the doors and found the two children still alive. They dragged them out of the vehicle.

Khaled told reporters that soldiers ordered them to lie on the ground in the cold and rain while they were questioned. They were then made to stand against a wall with their hands raised and searched.

Mustafa, frightened and in shock, asked to go to the toilet, so a soldier took him to another location. On the way, Mustafa recounted, the soldier opened the car doors again and forced him to look at the bodies of his bleeding family before laughing.

“They kept us with them and ordered us to remain still after searching us. They beat us, kicked us and cursed and laughed at us,” Khaled said.

"They asked where we had been, and I told them we had gone to Nablus to buy Eid clothes. They accused me of lying and beat me.

“Then I gathered the courage to ask one of the soldiers, ‘Do you love your mother and father?’ He said, ‘Of course.’ I asked, ‘Then why did you kill mine?’ He punched me in the face.”

According to an education ministry spokesperson, the destruction was so severe that 69 schoolgirls are yet to be identified and their remains are currently undergoing DNA testing.

One of the Red Crescent medics described the scene as “unbelievable”.

“We saw bodies without heads, without hands, without legs,” he said.

The medic described dozens of severed limbs scattered around the school grounds. Some children were so badly burned that identifying them was extremely difficult.

Just to be clear, I’m not a professional ‘quote maker’. I’m just an atheist teenager who greatly values his intelligence and scientific fact over any silly fiction book written 3,500 years ago. This being said, I am open to any and all criticism.

An Industrialized Genocide

Anatomy of the bombs

The investigation identified specific US-manufactured munitions used in Gaza that are linked to these disappearances:

MK-84 ‘Hammer’: This 900kg [2,000lb] unguided bomb packed with tritonal generates heat up to 3,500C [6,332F].

BLU-109 bunker buster: Used in an attack on al-Mawasi, an area Israel had declared a “safe zone” for forcibly displaced Palestinians in September 2024, this bomb evaporated 22 people. It has a steel casing and a delayed fuse, burying itself before detonating a PBXN-109 explosive mix. This creates a large fireball inside enclosed spaces, incinerating everything within reach.

GBU-39: This precision glide bomb was used in the al-Tabin school attack. It uses the AFX-757 explosive. “The GBU-39 is designed to keep the building structure relatively intact while destroying everything inside,” Fatigarov noted. “It kills via a pressure wave that ruptures lungs and a thermal wave that incinerates soft tissue.”
