LinkedIn featured a video of a British surgeon onsite in Gaza discussing the injuries suffered by a 7-year-old girl, her 5-year-old sister, and their mother when their tent was destroyed by incoming artillery.
The 7-year-old is missing a large chunk of her left cheek and left shoulder. Her younger sister lost an enormous chunk of her shoulder and suffered grave damage to her arm, including the loss of about 90% of the skin on her arm. Their mother was grievously injured to such an extent that the medical staff is uncertain whether she will live.
The surgeon was part of a skeletal crew, having lost 4 staff members who returned to their living quarters to evacuate their families as the other side advanced toward their location. It is only a matter of time and the other side’s military decision whether the medical facility will need to be evacuated.
This is what has been happening on the ground because one man ruling Israel works to escape justice and a trial based on corruption charges.
Years earlier, that man sought to defang the Israeli court system to avoid trial.
So it is instead young children who may lose their parents as they themselves suffer horrific wounds and scarring, such that their parents’ early expectations of healthy children with bright futures are derailed.
All so one man can escape justice.
Another ruler we well know has helped him, sharing his vision of shipping Gazans out to make room for seaside resorts. Imagine. His Homeland Secretary is willing to send Asian immigrants to South Sudan. Where will he send the Gazans?
Carol L. Clark: Israel itself is a noble cause and must survive.
I join in sorrow for the young engaged couple murdered yesterday in Washington, DC.
Benjamin Netanyahu is not alone among war criminals during the history of Israel.
To aim surgical attacks upon genocidal terrorists is a proper defense.
Instead, Netanyahu uses Israel's mighty Air Force to inflict tens of thousands of deaths, bombing hospitals, ambulances, humanitarian workers, refugee camps, food logistics, Orthodox Churches, Mosques, bombing into Lebanon.
An untold number of little children have been killed or maimed for life.
Women, children, noncombatants -- all have been targeted and killed, murdered in masses.
Netanyahu's war is a series of horrific war crimes.
Military Doctrine, in compliance with the Geneva/Hague Conventions, would result in decisive victory over Hamas.
The indiscriminate murder of thousands of children is not warfare.
It is massive murder and slaughter.
