More video and eyewitness info on Al Jazeera so far

Also reported on Common Dreams and Middle East Eye.

I haven’t found any reports of any independent investigations yet, hopefully they are underway

    I don’t mind it being pointed out. It’s especially damning because of that. You would think that they had learned better. But as is often the problem with humankind. We don’t ever really learn. We just retaliate when given the chance.

    When I say Israel that means government. When I say Israeli people. That means Israeli people. Like when people say America. Typically means American government. When they say American people. That typically means the American people. Is that clear? Hopefully that clears it up.

    And to be 1000% clear. It is the Israeli government, specifically likud In the knesset that are the problem. Plenty of the Israeli people are aghast at their own government’s actions.

      Sure, plenty of people in Israel are aghast at their government’s actions, but they aren’t claiming genocide like you are.

      So.again, we are dealing with you using Jews as a prop who can be trusted when they agree with you but but can’t when they disagree with you.

      How is this not antisemitism in your mind?

              Yes, you posted this before and never replied when I responded.

              If 1 scholar is enough to prove something for you, does 2 disprove it?

              Have you established consensus of scholars are on your side?

                  You clearly didn’t understand the question or chose to dismiss it, but that’s fine.

                  And currently, from what I can tell, yes, consensus is on my side I will however remain vigilant in examining whether that holds true.
