More dead. and forget the idea they are all "Evil Hamas"

"Today the small Christian community in Gaza buried two of its own. Maysaa Khader Ibrahim Abu Daoud and her daughter Maria were killed when Israel bombed their apartment early this morning. A mother and her daughter, at home, gone before the day had properly started. They were laid to rest from the Perivoros Church in Gaza City.
It should not matter what faith the dead hold. But the story Israel tells the world is that it is hunting bad Muslims, and these two women were Christians who prayed in a church their families have filled for generations. Look at the photos. Look at the pews packed with people saying goodbye to two women at once, in the church where everyone knew their names.
Israel's bombs never check which house of worship you belong to. Gaza's Christians live under the same siege, bury their dead with the same shaking hands, and carry the same grief as everyone else in the Strip. They are Palestinians, and the land holds them as deeply as it holds anyone.
Mike Huckabee, and every evangelical who talks so passionately about standing with Israel: come and look at these two coffins.
These are your fellow Christians, and the politics you champion asks the rest of us to look away from them. We refuse"

But while Netanyahu has Trump's backing nothing is about to change.

I wanted to bring that which is evil into the Light.

There is so much going on in the world, this is a genuine invitation to speak up whatever your POV about Gaza and the West Bank.

I continue to be horrified by the murder of innocents by the Israeli regime.
Those with power do nothing to stop the carnage.
Nobody has the right to take the life of another saying God is on their side.

We can see the barbarism in the US today so they are unlikely to stop Palestinians being killed.

That is so sad.

NEW: Israel has reacted with fury after the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to a lead investigator who determined that the country was committing genocide in Gaza

South African jurist Navanethem 'Navi' Pillay won the prestigious award after chairing the United Nations commission of inquiry which accused Israel of the gravest of war crimes.

Thank you for your OP Wyllow. It deserves an eloquent response but I don't have the words, just tears for so many innocent lives lost and fear for how many more there will be.

How glorious.

When it comes to giving out the peace prize Trump and cohorts as well as the murderous Netanyahu are at the back of the queue.

Nearly 42,000 people in Gaza have life-changing injuries because of the war, according to WHO. One in four is a child.

Gaza now hosts the largest group of child amputees in modern history.

I do still wonder if Trump wouldve waited on negotiations rather than attacking Iran, if he'd been given the '25 Peace prize.

As his image is more important to him than any number of lives, American or otherwise.

A well deserved Nobel prizewinner, bringing into the light the dark and murderous deeds of Mr Netanyahu and his gang of henchman.
I feel for Jewish people who share my abhorrence of this man.

There's a thread as well as this one if you are interested hearing further details of the wonderful Navi Pillay not to mention the Trump angle

Just one of them.

But they always have, and they always will ...........

It is always the powerful that has the loudest voice and ability to write history.

Well start a thread on it then.

What is happening in Gaza is an atrocity.

Netanyahu, Trump and Putin, in my humble opinion, are war criminals.

Many innocent people, on all sides of these wars are dying needlessly.

Anyone who condoned and applauds the three leaders mentioned here, is as bad as them.

This does not in any way excuse Hamas, or any other terrorist groups.

What’s happening in Gaza, is not justice, it’s revenge, greed and genocide.

The Nobel Peace prize has to be earned, Trump has done nothing, zero, nada, towards peace of any kind.

It really does boil my blood that he even talks about being given this award.

How dare he! Shame on him!

There’s no point Eazybee …they just aren’t interested.

I think most people on here know my views on the Palestinian situation .I won’t go on another rant but I will say that a lot of people CHOOSE to forget that this in many forms,has been going on since 1948 .
What has the world being doing?
Virtually nothing apart from letting Israel away with murder,they certainly let them away with ignoring the UN resolutions!
My friend came here over 35 years ago ,he watched as his home was razed to the ground along with their olive grove ,their livliehood and his grandfather shot.
I have been pro Palestinian since.
I must live in a parallel universe because most folk seem to just accept this or refuse to believe it’s been happening since the Nakba.
Shame on us all!,
