Reports that Israel air strikes have hit both a school and hospital :(

Hopefully proves to be inaccurate.
 
Like how they've also bombed the **** out of the south after telling everyone to move there <doh>

They don't target civilians though.
 
They kind of contradict themselves just a bit, when they say it's the mass of the atmosphere essentially that causes heating, as it compresses more when its mass is higher, and yet say the amount of extra material we put into the atmosphere doesn't have an effect... Apart from the fact it adds mass to the atmosphere and therefore compression heating...
I may have misunderstood however
 
Can no longer say the IDF has any kind of moral superiority over Hamas.

Terrorist organisation meets terrorist organisation.

Unfortunately for Israeli and Palestinian civilians.

It's awful. As I said the other day all this conflict will do is kill a **** load of innocent people & create more extremists on both sides.

This will never be resolved in any of ours or our children's lifetimes imo.

There is video evidence that it looks like a failed Hamas rocket launch- that is what Israel are saying.

I think we need to wait and see before condemning either side… and pray for as many survivors as possible. Jesus

This conflict is escalating more & more

So much propaganda from either side that it’s important to get these things right

Have to say that wouldn't surprise me.

Regardless of the specifics it's just so tragic.

Just verbal diarrhoea and manipulated stats as usual.
For many years the “data” said that smoking was good for you. Data and statistics can be manipulated to basically present any picture you like. Especially when it comes to health outcomes as it is so hard to track correctly thanks to life introducing many variables.

“They’” are the global pharmaceutical companies, lobbyists and politicians who all had a financial incentive to get drugs to market and keep people paying for them, without thinking about the implications on healthy young adults or alternative solutions which could have prevented thousands upon thousands of myocarditis and deaths.
Verbal diarrhoea? You're finding the truth unpalatable. The smoking data came from the tobacco lobby. The nonsense you post is straight from the shrill hysterical crackpot conspiraloons. No basis in fact whatsoever.
 
Let's be clear though regardless of this hospital incident Israel are quite clearly committing war crimes of an appalling nature.

Flattening entire streets and neighbourhoods indiscriminately.

Telling civilians to move south to safety and then bombing the **** out of the south.

Denying essentials such as water to the population. Hospitals have been rationing water to 330ml per patient per day ffs.

Bombing the only possible route out of the area meaning civilians can't flee.


If Russia had done just one of these things in Ukraine our government would have made multiple statements by now. Instead... Silence.

You reckon Israel would admit it if they did? There's video evidence that Israel have used white phosphorus which they've denied too. Wake up.
 
Tbf none of us know what happened and while Israel are bound to say that it's hardly unrealistic either given Hamas are known ti set up launching sites in close proximity to civilian infrastructure.

Israel have imprisoned the Palestinian populace in an open air prison for years whilst controlling, and restricting, exactly what goods flow in and out... all whilst periodically bombing them.

Our Government support this so why would they suddenly care now the bombing has stepped up in severity.
