Hours after being rescued from eight months captivity in Gaza, freed hostage Noa Argamani arrived at a hospital in Tel Aviv to see her terminally ill mother....
I'm struggling with everything on this article. On the one hand anytime a hostage has been freed, that's good news. On the other, at what cost.
40 000 dead. That's the easy stat. Amputations are also incredibly high. Most of them kids and performed without anesthetic.
This is the first time the IDF has rescued hostages.
So I'm sitting here with my initial feeling of 'oh, that's good news' ,and then I think about the wider picture and context, and it doesn't seem so good anymore.
I could be wrong, but I haven't seen any independent verification that Hamas has been using hospitals and schools for bases, but I'm positive that there's been debunked Israeli reports that schools and hospitals have been used as Hama's bases.
Same thing for human shields. IDF admits to using Palestinians as shields. To my knowledge, there's no Hamas equivalent.
This 'war' isn't about Hamas anyways. If it was, there wouldn't be 1000 people killed in the west bank. Hamas isn't in the west bank. Why is the IDF letting people kill Palestinians in the west bank?
That's interesting. If you read the PDA in march 2023, it sounds like the delays have been because of inventory and not because of anything else.
That's not a narrative I've heard before
I've been using the ISW map which is very similar to the Wikipedia one. I never thought to look up the map on Wikipedia.
I think a lot of people forget that a country is just a collection of people. Killing them off isn't a way to save the country
Kind of curious what tech people own, everything from small to big tech. Assuming solarpanels are a given for a lot of peeps here, or maybe will be in the future. But what other tech do you own that you're happy with?
What kind of asshole did that facial restructuring? We know the Neanderthal did art. Why does his hair look like that? With some crazy grin? Looks like a brain dead person on life support at a hospital that's been failing inspections.
We have every reason to think they valued beauty. Why isn't this guy put up in his finest buckskin? Maybe with some jewelry.
