It’s very strange. Israel has been engaged in a ground war for over a month in Gaza and yet we aren’t receiving any reports of their successes there. Which suggests that things aren’t exactly going to plan.
The video below suggests that they are meeting stiff resistance. Of course when it comes to bombing from the air, knowing that Gaza doesn’t have an air defence system, Israel is very good at carpet bombing. Better it must be said than even Nazi Germany was when it bombed Guernica and Belgrade, to name but two.
Israel is especially good at killing civilians, especially children, who consist of 40% of Gaza’s population. Israel is also excellent at attacking hospitals, all of whom are naturally Hamas bases.
Attacking doctors, nurses and medical personnel are their speciality. No war crime is horrendous enough for Israel’s brave soldiers.
Leaving babies to die when the incubators are turned off is a speciality. Unlike the Gulf War when Iraq was accused, falsely as it turned out, of having taken the babies out of incubators, Israel actually did kill the babies of Al Shifa hospital.
Indeed when it came to attacking the Indonesia hospital Israel didn’t even bother to pretend it was a Hamas base. They knew from previous experience that whatever said, whatever lie they told, Biden & Blinken would cover for them.
After all the United States has itself specialised in war crimes from Iraq to Afghanistan to Syria and beyond. Why then should Israel be afraid to parade its credentials in the war crime industry?
In the fight against ‘terrorism’ just about anything goes and in the case of Israel anything did go.
You may wonder why we have had no footage from the ground war which Israel has launched. All seems quiet on the Western front yet by all accounts Israel has not had it all its own way. By its own admission it has lost 60 dead but if this video from Richard Medhurst and reports from the Palestine Chronicle are anything to go business then Israel is meeting serious resistance.
