#Israel Loosened Its Rules to Bomb Hamas Fighters, #Killing Many More #Civilians
"Surprised by Oct. 7 and fearful of another attack, Israel weakened safeguards meant to #protect #noncombatants, allowing officers to #endanger up to 20 people in each #airstrike. One of the #deadliest #bombardments of the 21st century followed.
In each strike, the order said, officers had the authority to risk #killing up to 20 #civilians..."

Washington Institute for Near East Policy #Gaza Fatality Data Has Become Completely #Unreliable Heated debates over Palestinian death toll in #Hamas-#Israel war tend 2 focus on fact that widely cited fatality numbers make no distinction between #combatants & #noncombatants. While this is true it misses more fundamental problem—numbers themselves have lost any claim to validity. Download a condensed version of the author’s database (Excel).

#Israel continues slaughtering #Noncombatants in #Gaza.
Why?
#WeaponsOfMassDestruction, #NuclearBombs, effective missile systems, runways with bombers lined up, artillery?
What weapons are Israel slaughtering civilians to get to?
Grenades? Assault rifles? Pistols? Suicide bomber vests?
How many Israelis have been killed or injured by Hamas rockets in the last 5 years?
How many since the IDF focussed on Gaza after October 7?
And Hamas was a mystery and these werent a problem before 7th Oct?
“Some of this is happening out in the open, some behind the masks of #humanitarianism & #justice, & some in code, most famously ‘from the river to the sea,’ a chilling phrase that implicitly endorses the killing or deportation of the 9M #Israelis. It seems odd that one has to say: Killing #civilians, old people, even babies, is always wrong. But today say it one must.”

“The Hamas attack resembled a medieval Mongol raid for slaughter & human trophies—except it was recorded in real time & published to social media. Yet since #Oct7, Western academics, students, artists, & activists have denied, excused, or even celebrated the murders by a #terrorist sect that proclaims an #antiJewish genocidal program.

#Netanyahu, joined by #Defense Min #YoavGallant & Min #BennyGantz, said those who have accused #Israel of committing #WarCrimes in Gaza are hypocrites.

…#Israel's police & the #ShinBet #intelligence agency released footage from their interrogations of captured #Hamas gunmen who took part in the #Oct7 rampage of Israeli communities.
In the video clips, one handcuffed Hamas man sitting beside a desk is heard describing the orders they received regarding Israeli #civilians - to kill the men & bring the women, children & elderly as #hostages.

Correction:
Sounds like the release of #JudithTaiRaanan & #NatalieShoshanaRaanan was in the works for a while.
“This is something that the President has been laser focused on since the first time we heard there were American #hostages being held by Hamas…we said then & we are still saying we are going to do everything we can to get them back...” - John Kirby

“On Thurs night, #Biden made his most explicit case yet for why #Americans, & the #world, should rally behind 4 major goals. The 1st is to keep the #aid flowing into #Ukraine, so that #Putin cannot wait out the West (&/or the admin) & strangle the country. The 2nd
… is eliminating #Hamas. The 3rd is to keep both #wars from spreading.
“And the final objective is to accomplish all this w/o bringing more death & misery to #noncombatants caught in a world once again on fire.”
