[x65943]

In the second month of the indiscriminate Israeli counteroffensive and bombing campaign in the Gaza strip, which has notably claimed the lives of some 20,000 Palestinian civilians, IDF soldiers have now been found to have killed 3 Israeli hostages held by Hamas

The Israeli government has today announced an investigation into the slaying of 3 Israeli civilians by IDF forces which had been deemed "a threat" at the time of the killings

Regardless the bombing campaign continues, with thousands more feared to be dead or dying stuck under rubble in Gaza, which some have labelled an open air prison

The Israeli government has so far refused to initiate another ceasefire, meanwhile President Biden has called for a truce - and has been in meetings with the Palestinian authorities about a possible transition of power to a unified state of the west bank and Palestine under PA control

I seriously doubt this is the first time since Oct 7th that this has happened, and I know it won't be the last. The IDF under Netanyahu operates more like a bloodthirsty gang than a military.

In the IDF's defense, the three people had beards.... If you squint really hard you can imagine two of them them being Muslim. The third had ginger hair, so not sure what they were thinking there.

I'm honestly surprised they're even admitting this. They've definitely bombed a lot more hostages so far.

Makes you think how many random Gaza civilians were a "threat" and shot with automatic rifles

Israel gets so many free passes, I don't know how this is not a war crime.

I do not condone Hamas, I denounce Iran's funding of Hamas and Hezbollah and the incitation of terrorism... but to react with a genocidal massacre of civilians should not be tolerated by the international community, how is this not a war crime? How are there no sanctions? (all rhetoric questions really)

All true, but it's strange hearing that from someone with a Johan Liebert avatar

The israelis killed by the Israeli military in Gaza apparently were shirtless, unarmed and holding a white flag

The IDF shot them and killed two immediately, the last hostage ran for cover, and then was gunned down as the military felt "threatened"

Apparently as he was awaiting his death he was calling for help in Hebrew

Unfortunately for them, as soon as they got captured by the Hamas as hostages on october 7, their lives were just hanging by a thread. It was just a question of seeing if they would get killed by the Hamas, or get killed by the Israeli Army (through bombing or other actions). Getting released alive and well is just like winning the jackpot at the lottery. I'm actually surprised there were so many winners during the cease-fire.

I hate that this is funny. We have the world that we deserve.

No surprise considering who's supporting them.

See now, that's the sort of thing that can turn a law-abiding citizen into a full-fledged criminal.
