Two groups of murderers: Hamas on one side, the IDF and the Israeli government on the other. The civilians (Palestinian and Israeli) are caught between them and suffer the most.

Each group cries about the horrors inflicted upon the citizens, while using them as excuses to continue commiting atrocities. I find it hard to be sympathetic to anyone but the poor folk caught in between.

Just a heads up, read at your own risk, it contain a lot of uncensored gory pic

Yeah, they had to do this in face of allegations of fake claims. Sadly truth is worse than even the lies...

And you still have people, even in this very thread, making excuses and justifications

Thanks. Don't wanna burn NSFL shit in my retinas.

Holy fuck. It's truly horrifying. These people were bound up with metal wire and burned to death, put their hands in front of their faces to protect themselves as they got shot in the head, or were decapitated. Soot in the trachea means they were alive before being burned. A bloodstained baby's mattress whose blood will be used to ID the disfigured baby. A popular recipe book open to a page and covered in blood.

Hamas did this. It cannot be denied. This was an atrocity.

I'd be surprised if it didn't support Israel's position, given it's a government facility and Israel is at war.

I'm sure the Hamas equivalent facility (if they originally had one) would have equal evidence of Israeli atrocities, if Gaza wasn't being pounded into literal dust.

These are monsters. They’re not human

As if the two are mutually exclusive.

But seriously, if you demonize the other side, regardless of their atrocities, you start to justify your own atrocities just so you can get at the demons.
