MoH: 240 people KILLED and more than 400 others WOUNDED in the latest brutal #Israeli_bombing of Al Nusairat refugee camp!

All what you know about American floating port in #Gaza:

It was installed and used to deliver tens of aid truckloads to chaotic people and merchants of war..

Then, it was allegedly pushed away to Israeli port of Ashdod.

Aid delivery stopped.

At end of last week, US and Israeli officials and media said it would be reinstalled in order to resume aid deliveries.

One day after it was reinstalled, it was used to as the main logistic point for the Israeli-American aggression that KILLED more than 240 people in Al Nusairat refugee camp and released four Israeli prisoners!

NOW, no aid delivery is available while Gazans are starving!

In the area of the port, there are developed American military and intelligence equipment.

America is not helping Israel, but complicit with the war crimes being committed against civilians in #Gaza!

I’m blind to you haters
Can’t touch me, war instigators
Me say where is the love, lately
Ask you how the world ah run so

Israel, with U.S. assistance, launched a so-called “hostage rescue” mission in Gaza.

Four Israeli hostages were rescued.

Three others, including an American citizen, were killed.

Along with more than 200 Palestinian civilians.

The IDF force took casualties, with at least one senior commander being killed.

In any normal society, this operation would be classified as a failure, and investigations launched.

In Zionist Israel, they are celebrating.

A question for Biden: what role did the U.S. military/intelligence community play in facilitating the murder of an American citizen at the hands of the IDF.

And is it acceptable practice for the U.S. to support military operations that kill hundreds of civilians to recover hostages whose release could have been secured simply by implementing a viable ceasefire?

Thus, the temporary loss of Palestine by Muslims is consistent with the prophecy of the Holy Quran, where the return of the Israelites is not indicative of Islam’s abrogation but rather substantiates its truthfulness. The concept of ‘temporarily’ losing the land of Palestine clearly aligns with the Quranic promise asserting that ‘righteous servants’ will inherit the land, and it clearly means that, despite all the efforts of the global powers, the decree of Allah the Almighty will prevail, ensuring the eventual return of Muslims to Palestine and the establishment of their rule. (Ibid., p. 113)

What does the Quran say about Israel and Palestine?

1/ Perhaps the most comforting cliché is that sanity, as opposed to radicalism, lies in the middle ground. “Life isn’t perfect”, “you can’t have it all”, and also “there’s no such thing as a free lunch”. The middle is where it gets complicated, and that’s where it gets real. —>

3/ Consider the joy in Israel at the results of yesterday’s operation. Four Israeli hostages were rescued from Hamas captivity in Gaza city. The entire country was full of expressions of joy. Israelis celebrated our “creativity” and our “bravery”. We cherished the win. —>

4/ But any attempt to suggest that this rescue came at a horrific cost, that hundreds of Palestinians had been killed in the preceding days (it was clear why the Nusseirat school was bombed), that this could have been avoided with a deal, these were brutally stifled. —>

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is driven by several factors: ethnic, national, historical, and religious. This brief essay focuses on the religious dimension of the conflict, which both historical and recent events suggest lies at its core.

Possible Interventions

To contribute to curbing the religious violence in this conflict, several interventions can be considered: interfaith dialogue; the remembrance of past fruitful cooperation between Jews and Muslims, ever since the seventh century; and focusing on religious texts asserting positive and tolerant religious values, and reinforcing these values in educational systems on both sides. These are perhaps not new ideas. What should be new, however, is the urgency and centrality of this religious component as part of any current effort to achieve an Israeli-Palestinian “deal of the century” – or even just to mitigate the conflict and pave the way for peaceful coexistence in the long-term future.

Sharia law doesn’t have a specific stance on Palestine and Israel as geopolitical entities. However, opinions and interpretations vary among Islamic scholars and communities. Some may view the conflict through religious or humanitarian lenses, but Sharia law itself doesn’t prescribe specific policies or solutions regarding territorial disputes.

Islamic scholars have diverse opinions on the Israel-Palestine conflict. Some may view it through religious, humanitarian, or geopolitical lenses. While some scholars may support the recognition of Israel’s right to exist alongside a Palestinian state, others may advocate for the complete liberation of Palestine, viewing it as an issue of justice and self-determination. Overall, opinions vary based on individual interpretations of Islamic teachings, historical context, and geopolitical considerations.

Israel and the Palestinians shouldn’t be asking which historical narrative is more accurate but should instead focus on how to build a future

⚡️ Hezbollah fighters are now doing over 50 operations per week right under the nose of Israelis, with less than 5 casualties per week, compared to October, where they had casualties almost every day.

This is because they destroyed over 1650 pieces of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Target Acquisition (ISR) equipment along all the border during the past 8 months.

War Council member Benny Gantz: I announce my resignation from the emergency government

Deviating from the norm to say something about Israeli politics. If I were Netanyahu’s advisor, I would tell him that this is exactly the moment to sign a deal with Hamas. He will at once gain a large majority of Gantz voters because he will demonstrate how worthless Gantz is, and will not depend on the stupid and crazy days that keep him at bay. Net politics nowadays.

A few hours ago the entire State of Israel mourned and saluted the late Hero of Israel Arnon Zamora.

Israel is in an existential war on several fronts. My son, this is not the time to abandon the campaign – this is the time to join forces.

Citizens of Israel, we will continue until victory and the achievement of all the goals of the war, primarily the release of all our hostages and the elimination of Hamas.

My door will remain open to any Zionist party that is ready to get under the stretcher and assist in bringing victory over our enemies and ensuring the safety of our citizens.

🇮🇱 Four resignations from the war cabinet in less than an hour:

Benny Gantz resigned.

Gadi Eisenkot resigned.

Avi Rosenfeld resigned.

Hili tropper resigned.

The israeli entity is crumbling.

The U.S./Israeli hostage rescue operation was a massive violation of the Law of War, especially as it pertains to the issue of proportionality.

There is no legal jurisdiction that would certify a claim that rescuing four hostages is worth 200-plus civilians.

Even the Israeli Supreme Court agrees this outcome is a gross violation of the principle of proportionality—as it set out in a 2004 decision.

The question now is whether the ICC will have the moral integrity to set forth an additional indictment against Israel, and an indictment against the U.S.

Don’t hold your breath.
