The stark brutality of the ongoing attacks on the Gaza Strip are in full view tonight, after Israeli warplanes pounded a group of four small children playing soccer on the beach, killing them all.
Photos show the four children playing soccer quietly amongst themselves, nowhere near anything, before being ripped apart by Israeli attacks. Israeli officials insisted they were “targeting Hamas,” though Hamas is clearly not visible anywhere in the area.
Even the so-called moderates within the Israeli government appeared quite comfortable with the news of the grisly deaths, with Finance Minister Yair Lapid declaring that the “whole world” understands that it was Hamas’s fault and would be fine with even further Israeli escalation against the tiny strip irrespective of such “unfortunate” incidents.
Tiny, but densely populated. The Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 220 Palestinians, with around 80% of the toll civilians, mostly women and children whose homes were destroyed in attacks.
Israel has agreed to a brief “humanitarian pause” in the attacks, five hours overnight tonight by US reckoning. The pause seems not to have any specific goal at this point, as officials say even further escalation is likely the moment it ends, at which point the word “humanitarian” becomes entirely past tense.
The Obama Administration, which has loudly cheered Israel’s offensive, was silent on the question of killing children at the beach. When pressed at today’s briefing, the State Department spokeswoman insisted the question simply never came up at the latest Obama Administration meetings, and that no comment was likely to ever come at all, beyond the general sense that the US believes whatever Israel is doing is probably fine.
The Israeli government is the killing entity of Berzinski or Paul Wolfowitz or Carl Rove or Dick Cheney and rest of Neo cons, these people have no relation with humanity nor understand what humanity is about. Like their cousin in Ukraine they are created by vulture capitalism for what the system can profit from wars created by Barack Hussein Obama, AIPAC and their ideologues.
When it comes to killing a human, Obama makes Bibi look like a choir boy.
But the heavens would shake with howls of indignation and scorn had those been Israeli children killed by a HAMAS rocket while playing on the beach.
Or are we to believe that IDF pilots really don't know the difference between a soccer ball and a rocket launcher?
