NSFL (Death): Videos of these Palestinian children being murdered by IDF terrorists
I like how "the boys lay dead" instead of being killed.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Accused? We have video evidence of these boys being shot by the IDF
NSFL (Death): Videos of these Palestinian children being murdered by IDF terrorists
I like how "the boys lay dead" instead of being killed.
Thanks for sharing this.
Not sure why news articles never include the footage that they're reporting on.
Graphic footage of people being murdered in Western media is only for when we need to manufacture consent for Genocide. Remember kids only Hamas shoots people.
There's many reasons ... maybe the news source doesn't have publishing rights to the video, sometimes it's out of respect for the dead (that they not be used as "death porn" for clicks), and sometimes it's for the living who don't need to see their son - yet again - lying slaughtered in the street.
Seems like a possible, hypothetical scenario that happened there. Looks like some inadvertent collateral damage. Looks like these boys walked into the line of Israeli fire, according to some critics, according to Hamas, according to Pro-Palestinian voices, according to anti-Semitic opponents of Israel. Looks like an isolated incident.
I think we can all agree that this is extremely nuanced. This made someone remember October 7 which means both israel and Hamas are at fault here.
In fact, only Hamas is at fault here. And not israel. Blaming israel would be anti-Semitic.
Funny how IDF does a war crime on video and its alleged. When a lone gunman attacks a soldier, its terorism and entire population must be punished regardless of facts. The allegation is enough as in the case of unrwa
Here's an article explaining why the BBC doesn't call Hamas terrorists.
And here's an article of the BBC lying that they saw evidence of things later proven did not exist according to the UN report of Pramilla Patten. In order to manufacture consent for Genocide. Very unbiased by the BBC.
The BBC has seen and heard evidence of rape, sexual violence and mutilation of women during the 7 October Hamas attacks.
Israel's Women's Empowerment Minister, May Golan, told the BBC that a few victims of rape or sexual assault had survived the attacks, and that they were all currently receiving psychiatric treatment.
They are committing loads of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Why is it news they are being accused of this single crime done in West Bank? Sounds like it's an isolated incident while in fact it's daily business.
Why is it news they are being accused of this single crime done in West Bank?
Because the establishment media are consciously trying to shift focus away from Gaza and look less like the genocide apologists they are by strategically objecting to the fewer and (in most cases) lesser crimes against humanity that the apartheid regime is committing in the West Bank.
Damn. Disgusting. After everything in Syria, Rwanda, Ukraine, China, etc, we as western countries claim "we are better than this." While in fact in western countries we have people with power capable of approving and justifying horrific acts which are the same or even worse then what for example Russia does in Ukraine or China with the concentration camps. THERE IS NOTHING WHICH CAN JUSTIFY GENOCIDE. This shit is fucking embarrassing.
Because the investigation was concluded and the findings released. Same way cops would do it in most Western nations.
If the investigation is concluded, why are they pretending that it's still just an allegation? Other than maybe the usual "the Israeli government can do nothing wrong" reasons, that is..
Because the BBC did the investigation, not an governmental or international police service. Therefore they can't (and shouldn't) find guilt or innocence. They can only show the facts as they have found them, which then allows the gov/international services to decide whether or not to investigate.
It's not a perfect system, but then which one is these days?
they can't (and shouldn't) find guilt or innocence.
Then there's no fucking point! That's why you investigate accusations: to reach conclusions one way or the other. Otherwise it's nothing but pretense.
Not to take away from a lot of the other despicable shit done by Israel's defence forces, but you have to be a special kind of awful to murder a child. Doesn't matter if you believe you're entitled to the land or whatnot. There's really no way to justify killing children. Only hope the people who are responsible for actions like these gain some sort of awareness and have to live the rest of their lives with what they've done.
A special kind of awful, in this case a state sponsored terrorist. The Israel idf is the militant terrorist arm of the Israeli government. They exist to enforce apartheid, subjugate Palestinians, and execute civilians without any due process.
