    So why not at least mention where it came from, you clearly knew the source you took it from. Is that because you didn't want to mention The Palestinian Project or you didn't want to mention The Middle East Eye, just cheap tricks by you and you know it, the sort of stuff you call Sucky out for.

    Also doesn't stack-up ... if armed Hamas operatives had infiltrated the crowd, wouldn't they have been trapped in the fence corridor themselves?... and taken out by the IDF?

    Perhaps you do in real life. Not so much here.

    No. Like I said, I took it from a facebook post. It didn't have a link and I didn't know the source it came from.

    Fair enough, articles are better if they are linked, but your accusations are wrong about my motives.

    Being disingenuous would be me knowing it's not true and still posting it. I didn't have a link and that's all there is to it

    Stop reading things into it that don't exist.

    So it was a case of oh I don't know where it came from, I don't know if it is true, but it says what I want it to say, so I'll do a Sucky, OK!

    Like I said, it referenced Channel 4 but I didn't follow it up

    That's a completely different thing to being deliberately disingenuous

    Anyway, is the story untrue ? I'll happily retract it if there's evidence that it's made up.

    We have no way of knowing at present if the story is true or not, the IDF have denied it, but that means next to nothing to me.

    Yeah the IDF deny everything. They'd still be denying that those ambulances were shot up if they'd managed to bury them better.

    I take your point about providing a link, and it's usually something I'd do. But I saw the post on facebook, took a screenshot and posted it. Not ideal, but it needs saying again that it wasn't a deliberate attempt to try and conceal anything or be disingenuous, nor was it any 'cheap tricks'.

    I was out last night and didn't really have a chance to follow it up. I don't know 100% if it's true, but we know that kids are being shot by the IDF and there is now a litany of examples where civilians are being targeted, especially at these inhumane 'aid' sites.

    But if you read the IDF do something then you automatically believe that. When it’s Hamas being blamed for something you automatically cast doubt over it.

    I take it that we've not made any progress since I last visited the thread? Kids still dead, people picking sides and banging on about how they are right? Just making sure I don't need to read back or something?

    You’re welcome guys x

    Imagine how much better the world would be if Ethiopia and other places had an Israel to help sort these situations.

    This is quite mind blowing -

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-33fccfbe-abcc-4af1-bdd2-632b2787cf59

    ... only images I've seen of destruction on this scale were of Hiroshima and Nagasaki ...

    Israel says its necessary because Hamas have operated within / beneath civilian structures... doubt that's gonna wash with the majority of the world - destruction of civilian infrastructure is a prescribed war crime under the Geneva Convention...

    It's pretty clear Israel is taking this opportunity to totally rethink and restructure Gaza. Over decades it became a nest, a cesspit of terror and hatred.

    I'm not absolving Israel of all blame for what Gaza turned into, but the bottom line is it became what it became and that grotesque nest of terror wasn't good for anyone - Gazans or Israelis.

    If the vision moving forward can guarantee a better life for Gazans and greater security for Israelis, I welcome these moves.

    It’s not a war crime if there’s a genuine reason for it.

    Hamas clearly do have a huge underground network in Gaza.

    Plenty of convicted war criminals had 'reasons' .... the chances of tunnels being under every building being demolished or bombed are minimal...
