oatmeal<p>Quoting Nir Hasson: “all the evidence indicates that in the war that began on October 7, 2023, the IDF loosened all the legal and moral reins on its soldiers and committed too many war crimes to count”</p><p>The massacre of aid workers in Gaza is just the tip of the iceberg. Nir Hasson writes that the real horror is the pattern of incidents – like the deaths of hostages, WCK workers, & the Abu Nassar family – revealing a troubling reality in Gaza, investigated by reputable media outlets. These aren't isolated events. </p><p>[…] Yet the true horror isn't the killing of the paramedics, but the truth arising through the smoke from all the windows that have been opened and the accumulated evidence that has emerged from Gaza since the start of the war. There's no reason to think the incidents described above – the three hostages, the World Central Kitchen workers, the Abu Nassar family, the paramedics and dozens of others investigated by every self-respecting Western media outlet – are exceptional.</p><p>[…] Given this accumulation of black balls – the testimonies, the photographs, the investigative reports, the reports by international organizations, the satellite photos and common sense – there's no logic in assuming that the other 30,000 civilians (at least) who were killed in Gaza, died in compliance with Israeli and international law.</p><p><a href="https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-04-21/ty-article/.premium/killing-of-the-aid-workers-proves-many-idf-claims-are-just-alternative-facts/00000196-5556-d0f1-abf6-757e476c0000" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-0</span><span class="invisible">4-21/ty-article/.premium/killing-of-the-aid-workers-proves-many-idf-claims-are-just-alternative-facts/00000196-5556-d0f1-abf6-757e476c0000</span></a> or <a href="https://archive.is/piL3q" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.is/piL3q</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/palestine" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>palestine</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaGenocide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IDF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IDF</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/warcrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>warcrimes</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OatmealQuotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OatmealQuotes</span></a></p>
