A confusing thing for me about this report is ..... where did this footage come from? Was this actual footage from an Israeli drone? Was it footage from someone else who filmed the strike?
I fully support the Palestinians and completely abhor what the IDF is doing but I'm completely at a loss as to where this footage came from.
Are the Israelis that callous as to freely release footage this graphic and blatantly horrific for the public to see? Or was it secretly acquired? Or is this footage from someone else in some other way?
It's absolutely horrible that this is even happening .... it's somehow even more horrible to have footage of the actual acts happening and it's aftermath and the world generally just not reacting to any of it.
This isn't an Israeli problem .... we're all complicit in making this possible .... and we're all complicit in allowing it to continue.
We haven't evolved ... we're no better than our ancestors a thousand years ago ... we're just more efficient about how terrible we can be to one another.
I believe it was israel themselves who released those footages.

I'm not exactly an atheist .... I believe in something in my own way without following any religion or in wanting to force any of my beliefs on anyone.
But if there is evidence for the absence of God and the folly of Christian/Jewish/Muslim (Judeo-Christian) religions ..... what's happening in Palestine affirms that all these religions are just runaway historic cults that are absolutely destroying our world.
This is just western settler colonialism as we've seen for the last few centuries. This region is a bridge between the Middle-East and Africa, and serves as a great base for imperial core countries like the US to destabilize the Middle-East and keep them from uniting.
Its formation used common british colonization tactics [III], with companies literally named "Colonization Commission", "Jewish Colonial Trust" and the like.
Theodor Herzl, founder of the colonial ideology he called "zionism", was himself also just a racist colonizer by his own admission, and saw it as bringing ‘civilization’ to ‘barbarians’ as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:
Only difference now is that the US has been the de facto leader of the imperial core since WW2, no longer UK in Europe.
If there is one thing this is showing very clearly, is that Israel never evolved beyond the racist thinking of the early XXth century and the same for all those countries unwaveringly supporting it because it's "the Jewish Nation".
The mindset of Nazism is still alive and well, just more dissimulated and with a different list of ubermenschen and untermenschen.
This has nothing to do with religion. Israeli settler colonialism is all about the land for the settlers and how Israel is strategically important proxy for the US in the middle east.
I'm not sure what Islam has to do with a Jewish settler colony, but go on I guess.
