It will be written— that 8 billion people, 194 nations, every toothless UN hall, every court, every council, every so-called army of peace— stood still. While one settler colony, backed by empire, rained U.S. steel on schools, hospitals, bakeries, and on children's backs as they fled from tents. It will be remembered— not only who dropped the bombs, but who watched. Who calculated. Who delayed. Who shrugged. A genocidal regime turned Gaza into a graveyard— and the world lowered its eyes. Shame is too small a word." RQ

Vous avez si bien dit, c’est incommensurablement une tragédie sans nom! C’est horrible 😢

You were so small in my hands

no shrapnel could hit you,

but the dust and

smoke of the bomb

rushed into your lungs.

No need for any gauze.

They just closed your eyes.

No need for any shroud.

You were already

in your swaddle blanket.

"Over the past few months, Israel has killed many families in Gaza. A large number of those were children. Some kids were beheaded or burnt or both in air strikes. Some were buried and [are] still under the rubble of their houses. I personally lost thirty-one members of my family in one air strike, eighteen of them were children."

I do not know or understand how you can bear this satanic horror, the pain I feel for you and your neighbours every day, every time I read, or see, another day of slaughter my heart breaks for you. You have done nothing to deserve such desecration, your babies should not be murdered before the can say their just word. How do you keep going against such violent evil?

Since day one I have prayed for this massacre to cease and for someone, anyone, with the same 2,000 and 5,000Lb bombs to drop them on Israel -- because Israel has forfeited its right to exist.

Hi, this article and your work is so important to share with Americans especially that almost never see this in mainstream media. But on Blue Sky the image of this article was labeled with "graphic media" The people here is blurred. I don't think it's nessesary. You don't see their faces or their injuries. You see the blood on the ground and can tell it's probably 2 adults and a child.

You’ve probably covered everything that had to be said.

Just devastating. What is this injustice? Why so much trouble to cover for a rogue state that’s been trampling on every law that ever existed. Where is the humanity and sound principles?

Well, I want to stop the killer. Even if it means taking over North America and storming Israel itself!

Yes. Yes. And yes. In my not very humble opinion, everyone needs to read Hannah Arendt's essay Eichmann in Jerusalem about the banality of evil.

Maybe stop starting wars then? In the name of the “resistance” then retreating to your rat tunnels built with stolen money and leaving civilians to bear the brunt of the conflict. Fucking Arab cowards. The Nazis tried and failed to wipe out the Jews and now the Arab colonisers are finding out the hard way and failing lol lol lol.

Cheer up - maybe ham ass will commit another genocidal atrocity soon so you can all pretend to be victims again! Lol

Can we start talking about what makes/helps the killing happen instead of repeatedly reporting on it?

- Posting graphic images of our dead. You don't see the same for the other side. Think.

- Who profits from the killing? The defence industry.

- What is their market? War. Real or otherwise.

- How do they market their product? The media.

- Who is the repeat customer? Israel. Ukraine. Think.

- Who are the salesmen? US lawmakers.

This is not directed at Ahmed or anyone writing on this issue. But someone has to ask these questions.

When we stop reporting the same thing over and over again expecting the players mentioned above to do anything other than protect their bottom line...

Maybe we can start addressing the actual reasons behind the killing.

I think and it is not as easy as you have described it is not a 2D picture it is 4D.

1st there are those behind the scenes that pull the strings they are nameless you can try hard to find out who they are its no easy task

2nd there are those who represent them they have names but have no idea that they are being used

3rd there are those who have been programmed by the media propaganda a lot of this kind of articles are directed at them to wake up their human instincts to resist that programming

4th those who have lifted the fog of programming from their brains, they need to organise become a unit and rise up.

When you know the 1st and 2nd you’ll need 3rd the most to get to the 4th.

The system is designed this way and has been since the start, wars have always been created for the benefit of the few, the problem is that people get swayed to participate, accept, agree because they don’t see the real picture only what they need to see.

How can normal humans get to the point of accepting the death of thousands of children, journalists, doctors and nurses and innocent civilians barely living in tents with no water and food? This is the main question you need to ask and what is the antidote to that indifference.

This is an incredible article, thank you. Please mention Mona Ramadan of Gaza in your articles and do whatever you can to keep her alive. She has been targeted for elimination by Israel. You make several very strong and important points in your article, and I am sure you realize that makes you a target for elimination as well. So you need to do whatever you can to stay safe as well. Salaam.
