Damn they specifically say "Israeli gunfire" good job on doing the bare minimum, CNN
You can tell the gears of the US state/media machinery have been slowly grinding from full on genocidal "DONOTQUESTIONISRAELHASARIGHTTONUKEGAZA!" from like Oct 6-maybe Jan sometime
To a more "just asking questions, but you better not get too questiony over there, Arab-looking possible-Muslim man! Hamas? Condemn?"
And now even Jake Tapper is having on Mehdi Hasan who is probably (?) about the "left-most" acceptable media figure (although he DID get fired effectively for asking too many questions while not-white. A horrific crime) and letting him mildly condemn Israel's bloodthirst since 10/7 but still, of course, never truly framing it for what it is and always was going to be: genocide with the end goal of full direct settlement of Gaza by Israel with no Palestinian presence.
So you can kinda see the downward trend as the deathtoll rises and as internal US opposition rises. Of course as the US state slowly tells Israel that this must end soon, the IOF seems almost desperate to get in a last few atrocities. In the eyes of those who hold racist supremacist ideologies like Zionists do every dead Palestinian child is one less future militant and one less Palestinian generally who can produce the next generation. I think this evil logic, which literally the Nazis employed as they shot Jews by the thousands, is lost on many people who think "all the dead pregnant women and children must surely be an accident. Why kill kids? They aren't that evil." Well, yes, they are. And they justify it by the same justification Nazis used "I don't want to shoot babies, but I am protecting the Reich and my family."
Most effective political suicide ever?
On track to become the doohickey of suicide
I've been trying to avoid saying that, but the fact that a member of the US military (an automatic hero, according to propaganda) called out a genocide before an act of suicide might make it the most effective form of self-immolation as protest ever. Rest in Peace to a genuinely good human being.
Just had my first "Palestine : Vietnam" realization (from US media depicting the war over time perspective)
We have credible evidence that Hamas is hiding in the flour bags.
When even r/politics users on
are shitting on r/worldnews right now for spreading misinformation about this massacre and banning people who speak out against it, you know the Zionist state apparatus is losing more support over this.I guess there are limits to the horrors that the lib conscience can tolerate before they are forced to reckon with the reality of the situation and reassess their loyalties. It should have happened tens of thousands of casualties ago, but our media did their best to parrot the IDF narrative the whole time.
![Right now on CNN the flour massacre is being covered in a "tipping point" segment that's critical of Israel. [CW: corpse]](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/28affb0f-6a2e-4ab5-818f-7a967c397186.png){kind=link}
