Thirty-one premature babies have been evacuated from northern Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital to southern Gaza, where they are being prepared to enter Egypt for medical care.
When the Israeli siege on al-Shifa began, there were 39 babies in the Neonatal ICU who were removed from their incubators due to power outages. Eight died before they could be evacuated, including two who were pronounced dead just before the rescue operation.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said the 31 babies were evacuated in Palestinian Red Crescent ambulances. The WHO said that doctors found “all the babies are fighting serious infections due to lack of medical supplies and impossibility to continue infection control measures in al-Shifa Hospital.”
After visiting the hospital, the WHO described al-Shifa as a “death zone” with a mass grave at the entrance as dozens of patients have died. About 250 patients in serious condition remain at the hospital, with about 20 hospital workers left to take care of them.
Israel has justified its hospital siege by claiming Hamas had a command center underneath al-Shifa, a claim backed by the US. But Israel has yet to provide evidence for its assertion.
The Israeli military released video footage on Sunday that purported to show tunnels that go underneath the hospital. But the presence of tunnels in the hospital is not sufficient evidence that Hamas has a command center under al-Shifa since it’s known that Israel built a significant basement under al-Shifa when it ruled over Gaza in the 1980s. Some reports have said the Israeli construction also included a network of tunnels.
Biden needs to be removed from office immediately, they assassinated Kennedy but can’t remove a demented man from office? The nation takes part in committing war crimes and no one is sane enough to stop it? The nation is helpless?
The latest numbers, 5 500 children have been killed with bombs. What does it take to stop the monsters in Tel Aviv and DC?
How many children and their parents are still buried under the rubble?
From 2016:
Controlled by shadow government: Mike Lofgren reveals how top U.S. officials are at the mercy of the “deep state”
A corrupt network of wealthy elites has hijacked our government, ex-GOP staffer and best-selling author tells Salon
Well, first of all, it is not a conspiracy. It is something that operates in broad daylight. It is not a conspiratorial cabal. These are simply people who have evolved [into] a kind of position. It is in their best interest to act in this way.
And given the fact that people would rather know about Kim Kardashian than what makes up the budget or what the government is doing in Mali or Sudan or other unknown places, this is what you get: a disconnected, self-serving bureaucracy that is … simply evolving to do what it’s doing now. That is, to maintain and enhance its own power….
The key institutions are exactly what people would think they are. The military-industrial complex; the Pentagon and all their contractors (but also, now, our entire homeland security apparatus); the Department of Treasury; the Justice Department; certain courts, like the southern district of Manhattan, and the eastern district of Virginia; the FISA courts. And you got this kind of rump Congress that consists of certain people in the leadership, defense and intelligence committees who kind of know what’s going on. The rest of Congress doesn’t really know or care; they’re too busy looking about the next election.
So that’s the governmental aspect. What about in the private sector?
You’ve got Wall Street. Many of these people — whether it is David Petraeus … or someone like [Bill] Daley, who is the former chief of staff to President Obama … or Hank Paulson, who came from Goldman Sachs to become Treasury Secretary and bailed out Wall Street in 2008; or the people that Obama chose to be Treasury secretary — like Tim Geithner. They all have that Wall Street connection.
And the third thing now is Silicon Valley.

Major General Smedley Butler: War is a Racket
So you think Kamala Harris will do a better job.
If she does not get rid of her, this is a real moral issue, Biden and everyone must be held accountable for their crimes. We must speak up for all the brutally killed defenseless children and adults. We have a duty to hold our elected government accountable, every single person.
We are moral failures watching the slaughter in Ukraine and Gaza and being silent makes us guilty too. There is no excuse , to speak up is the only tool we have. I want to be able to look in the mirror, yes, with sorrow but not with guilt and shame for having been silent when infants and children are being brutally killed.
What happened to your morals, do you have a heart?
War is hell. Yes civilians are being killed it happens in war. In 1944 the US Army bombed the railroad system in France killing over 10,000 French civilians in the process. Until the hostages are released this war has no chance of stopping. What crime did Biden commit? He didn’t start this war. Hamas did. Are you upset that he has supply Israel with GPS bomb kits and bunker buster bombs? Hamas knew and indeed even counted on the massive Israel response. They knew that this would disrupt the peace process and gain PR points. You should be mad a Hamas leadership because they are the problem.
Until the hostages are released this war has no chance of stopping.
Until there’s a ceasefire there is no chance for the hostages to be released.
And the longer Israel continues indiscriminate slaughter and destruction, the fewer hostages will remain alive to be released.
Israeli bombing has killed 50 hostages. The Israeli administration does not care about the hostages. The action of 7Oct23 galvanized the rancid population to go all in on the Final Solution of the Palestinian situation. To them, what is so important about the hostages? They see the opportunity for the PRIZE, all of Gaza and the West Bank. Netanyahu as mentioned that he plans to go into Lebanon, Syria, Jordan. Sounds very much like a guy with a funny mustache of yesteryear.
They don’t much care about innocent bystanders either, they proved that by slaughtering their own people on Oct. 7.
They probably learned that from your Russian people in Ukraine.
The Zios aren’t using Russians as advisors but some yankee who butchered Fallujah.
This is not a war. A war is combat between adversaries that have like weapons, armies, air force, navy. Palestinians have none. The Zionist administration seeks to exterminate the Palestinians. EXTERMINATE. Does that word ring a bell??? WWII? The camps? Seventy-five years of oppression. Sixteen years of lock down. Palestinian fishermen shot at. Harbor destroyed. Airport destroyed. No economy. Unemployment above 50%. No hope for young men. No travel out of the camp except for rare instances. And you put the total blame on Hamas? In 2014,Hamas negotiated a ceasefire. It took Israel six months to break the ceasefire. On the day of the U.S. election, November 4. I know you clearly understand that the Zionist administration has accelerated its plan to exterminate as many Palestinians as possible, and, those that are not exterminated will be forced to die in tent cities in the Sinai desert.
It’s an Israeli Special Military Operation.
Who would you suggest? But then, your answer would not be recognized. You are not an American citizen. You have no say in the matter.
And you aren’t American either. Phony.
There is no “evidence” and there will not be. The Jackals in the Netanyahu administration, as well as the Biden administration are worse than the most hardened, demonic criminals the world have ever seen,just empty souls. G-d! Babies!! Dead!! My grief and anger are at levels I have never felt.
Did you have the same grief and anger over Hamas Oct 7 attack?
Haaretz: Israeli Helicopter Fire ‘Hit’ Music Festival Attendees On October 7
Read it and weep.
If there was a friendly fire incident, which is questionable, those deaths are on the hands of Hamas.
It wasn’t a incident , it’s been the whole shit show the IDF has put on since going completely berserk.
If cause is guilty of effect then the Nakba leaves all deaths from ‘48 on at Israel’s door.. At least the door it illegally occupies.
As long as history starts on October 7th.
Here’s the latest evidence from Gaza: https://twitter.com/HotSpotHotSpot/status/1726626338944266478?t=_L_8SluSK3MYyDGdcvb5hw&s=19
Everything, including the inevitable uprising is on the heads of the Netanyahu administration, and all previous Zionist administrations. Seventy five years of occupation. Sixteen years of blockade, a locked cell, in the largest concentration camp, shooting gallery, open air prison ever conceived. Palestinians deaths. Starvation. Lack of enough medicines. Lack of free movement. Raids. Random detaining (some children). Settler violence in the West Bank (600,000 settlers there now). And, as in the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, there has been an uprising. It was instrumental in that it revealed to the world what the conditions have been in Gaza and the West Bank, and now. the world knows the brutality of the Zionists of Israel, non-religious, in comparison with Israelis who are religions, and who can understand what has been and what is happening now. Jewish Voice for Peace, and other like groups, as well as Rabbis know.
There were no beheaded babies, no rapes, the famous charred corpses were the result of hellfire missiles, and the Rave mass slaughter & Kibbutzim mass slaughter were helicopter canon. All Hamas wanted was hostages. We have to turn the Zionist narrative on its head, … the whole big “Victim” lie.
Yes, the helicopter killed 1400 Israelis and the videos of Hamas murdering civilians were fake.
Idiot.
There was a whole lot more than one chopper, fool.
Shock. Sadness. Knew it was inevitable. Did you have the same grief and anger at a people being occupied, blockaded, locked into the largest concentration camp ever? Are you filled with grief and anger over the knowledge that the IDF and the Israeli air force murdered Israelis on 7Oct23, and, have murdered 50 of the hostages (confirmed by one of the hostages) in the constant bombing??? I presume I can to to commentary about the proxy war in Ukraine and find your personage, Jake, vomiting the same kind of trope as you do here.
It is really amazing that the same shit keeps coming back no matter how much new honest information comes out that some people refuse to see hear or handle the truth.
If Biden had any balls he would resign for the situations he has caused both in this country and out. No such luck.
Israel is so nice. It killed 8 premature babies because Israel built tunnels under the hospital in the 1980s.
Blaming Israel for Hamas tunnels is just a poor attempt to deflect the blame away from Hamas. Hamas started this round of violence and Hamas depends on the tunnels to continue their fight.
The tunnel was built when Israel controlled Gaza and before Israel built Hamas.
There is nothing to prove Hamas used the hospital, same lies they used in Ukraine. There is no moral difference between the Zionists and Hitler’s Nazis.
It is high time for us to face the truth, The Zionists are evil people and our officials starting with Biden are the same.
A Nazi calling others Nazis.
Right from the Kremlin playbook.
The Israelis started the relentless brutalities against the Palestinian nation, it has been a slow-motion century long massacre which they continue. It is the bloody massacre of the Palestinian nation. There is no excuse for the killing of infants, children and old and young unarmed people.
Have you no decency, no morals, no heart?
What about the helpless children dying a long, slow and painful death alone, without any one to comfort them under rubble?
“The Israelis started the relentless brutalities against the Palestinian nation,” No doubt that Israel is not innocence. However, this round is on Hamas. All this death and destruction is the direct result of Oct 7. Tell Hamas to release the hostages and give up their weapons. The war would come to and end. If Hamas cared about the children they would quit. But instead they are trading the lives of people living in Gaza to kill a few more IDF troops. You should ask the leader of Hamas, who is sitting comfortably in Qatar, if he has decency, morals or a heart.
You admit to something happening before October 7th but you keep wanting to ignore that it had anything to do with what Hamas did on October 7th. This “round” isn’t round one.
I blocked this jackass a while ago. Nothing emerges from it but juvenile crap.
Another sorry-ass attempt to convince someone — maybe yourself — that Hamas made Israel conduct a massive genocidal slaughter.
The world isn’t buying it this time, Tim.
Julio, Tim, Jake, whoever you are, you know the truth of the occupation, that since 2001 (and before the current onslaught) more than 2,000 children, Palestinian children had been killed by the IDF and settlers. It is the norm for those who are occupied to rise up, very similar to the Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto rising up, fruitless, but caused by the occupied driven mad by their circumstance. So, tri-person, keep typing for New Shekels.
You are wasting your time and energy for a feel god comment. All the realities of the crimes of Israel can not he heard or seen because the apologists have blinders and ear plugs. Nothing real gets in and a bunch of crap comes out.
If that alone were all there is, as bad as it is there is so much more. MSM does not tell and show the real truth, because it could upset the sensitive American souls.
Agreed. The pro-genocide crowd are leaving a repugnant smell in here. The best way to get rid of their nasty smell is to flush them down the toilet. Nobody has invented a better way. When you smell them, just say FLUSH.
How do we find out the true story? Israel is killing journalists!
Israeli tanks besiege Gaza’s Indonesian Hospital
The situation in northern Gaza’s sole remaining medical facility is ‘catastrophic’, the Health Ministry says.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/11/20/israeli-tanks-surround-gazas-indonesian-hospital-after-killing-12-people
What a bunch of hypocrites here.
When Russia attacks Ukrainian civilian targets and kill babies, elders, and many other non combatants, all to take their land, the pro Putin crowd here wastes no time with excuses, claiming conspiracies, and questioning evidence. Same clowns have zero issues in embracing these claims without evidence when it comes to Palestine and Hamas.
Ukraine and Palestine are both fighting for their independence, freedom and land, yet, Ukraine gets blamed for doing so here.
Bunch of anti US hiding behind the antiwar banner.
I then get insulted for calling you idiots out.
Dishonest Hypocrites!
Israeli state TV video shows children singing about Gaza
“ Within a year we will eliminate them all.” A video by Israel’s public broadcaster of children singing about Gaza has caused a backlash online, including among many Israelis.

Yup. Do not miss it, folks. This is a must-watch, must-listen performance.
