70000 dead, continued shelling and bombing inspite of a supposed ceasefire. Now MSF is being ejected from Gaza because they refuse to hand over a list of people working for them without guarantees for their security.
My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct
ETA 5/8/20: I've been advised that the result was correct, it was the initial interpretation that needed to be withdrawn
Meta? I'd say so!
Four people out of a West Bank family of five were murdered by undercover Israeli police as they came back from a shopping trip. Shooting them in the face and head. This includes children of 5 and 7, one of whom was blind and had special needs. The police then dragged the surviving 11 year old out of the car and beat him, taunting him about the murder of his family saying that they had “killed dogs.” The justification was that the undercover police, who were driving a car with Palestinian plates. had “perceived an imminent threat” from the unarmed family and so needed to shoot a blind seven year old in the face.
But I’m sure someone will turn up to say I don’t understand the situation and I’ve got it all wrong.
