There’s some serious bullshit in the following article giving credibility and “equal time” to lying diversionary Israeli propaganda, but just look at the acknowledged facts. On an important holiday that Israeli’s are well aware of, they bomb not only hospitals that are designated refugee areas, but innocent, celebrating children in a park.
Anyone who doesn’t understand Israel’s murderous intent to scrape the land of what they consider vermin for its own use is a brain dead fool.
This perhaps is the most telling barbaric act yet…although the entire onslaught during this slaughter and others is of the same wickedly insane nature. Yet the world powers stand by and excuse themselves if they dare criticize or challenge these barbaric, murderous attacks.
If you’re not outraged you’re not alive, never mind awake.
GAZA CITY (Ma’an) — Israeli forces on Monday bombed a park near the beach in Gaza City as well as al-Shifa hospital, killing at least 10 children on the first day of the Eid al-Fitr holiday, medics said.
The strike on the park hit a playground beside the al-Shati refugee camp, while the other strike hit the outpatient clinic of al-Shifa Hospital, which is the main hospital in the besieged coastal enclave.
The strike on the park — which reports suggested was a drone strike — hit the playground, killing 10 children as they played with their families while wearing holiday clothes they had been given to celebrate the end of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan.
Eyewitnesses said that 40 were also injured in the strike, which some were calling an “Eid massacre.”
The Israeli army, however, said that the deaths were a result of “failed rocket attacks” launched by Palestinian militants.
Government Coordinator in the Territories Yoav Mordechai told Ma’an that the rockets were launched by Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad.
Director of reception at al-Shifa Hospital Ayman al-Sahbani said that a total of 10 children’s bodies had arrived at the hospital as a result of the two strikes. It was unclear how many casualties had come as a result of the attack on the hospital.
Thousands of Palestinians have taken refuge in the al-Shifa Hospital, as 130,000 have fled their homes as Israeli authorities declared more than 43 percent of the Gaza Strip off-limits to civilians and destroyed more than 2,000 homes in recent weeks.
Israeli shelling killed two Palestinians in Jabaliya earlier on Monday amid a relative lull in fighting compared to previous days.
Another Palestinian, meanwhile, succumbed to his wounds, while seven bodies were recovered in Khuzaa in the eastern Gaza Strip as medical teams took advantage of the calm to retrieve bodies from the rubble of the heavily bombarded neighborhood.
The attacks came a day after Palestinian militants announced a 24-hour ceasefire beginning Sunday at 2 p.m. Israel refused to officially accept the ceasefire, but officials said they would restrain attacks to “retaliation” to Palestinian attacks.
Several rockets were fired on Monday into Israel.
Monday’s attacks brought the total Palestinian death toll to 1,055, with more than 6,200 injured.
The Israeli army says at least 43 Israeli soldiers have been killed in clashes with Palestinian militants in the same time, while three civilians have died in rocket attacks on Israel.
We are all Palestinians.
