    60% of Israeli Jews are of Middle Eastern ancestry, and are not "white".

    Well, they are on a roll... Reports are coming in that an airstrike just hit a hospital, killing between 200-500 civilians. I don't think there is anything official yet though.

    Hard to believe anywhere except Israel:

    https://thehill.com/policy/internat...e United,humanitarian crisis” in the conflict.

    "Israel’s ambassador to the United Kingdom shrugged off allegations that the Israeli military is putting civilians at risk through its war in Gaza, saying there is 'no humanitarian crisis' in the conflict.

    "Tzipi Hotovely said in a Sky News interview Monday that Hamas 'needs to pay the price' after militants killed more than 1,200 Israelis in a surprise attack at the outset of the conflict 10 days ago."

    Hamas ISIS failed to shoot a rocket and it fell on a Gazan hospital.
    The fake pro Islamo Jihado propaganda blames Israel without waiting for the evidence.

    Actually I think just the opposite. The US wants to deter a wider war which could be sparked from Israel's thirst for revenge. And the US feels obligated to protect Israel in that event.

    She's a doctoral student at the Faculty of Law in Tel Aviv (according to Wikipedia) and a "self-described 'religious right-winger'"
    [​IMG]
    Her family immigrated to Israel from the wreckage of the USSR which probably means she was raised to view Palestinians as second-class citizens, at best.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzipi_Hotovely

    "She completed her bachelor's and master's degrees in law at Bar-Ilan University, graduating with honors.

    "Upon completion of her academic studies, she interned in the law office of Ram Caspi in Tel Aviv, specializing in corporate law, and became a certified lawyer in 2003.

    "Between 2003 and 2005, she served as the editor of Bar-Ilan's Journal of Law, and later began her studies for a doctorate at Tel Aviv University."

    I was listening to David Petraeus. He said it might have been a faulty HAMAS missile

    There are allegations of racism in her political career:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzipi_Hotovely

    "While a member of the Knesset's Committee on the State of Women and Gender Equality in 2011, she invited representatives from Lehava (Prevention of Assimilation in the Holy Land), a group whose primary objective is to oppose assimilation of Jews and which objects to any personal or business relationships between Jews and non-Jews,[6][

    unclear if the cause was an IDF strike or a failed Hamas launch.

    Meaning they are basing missiles out of hospitals.

    This is why we were not even allowed to bring our Bradley's into Mosul during my third tour in Iraq, let alone artillery or airstrikes. Too much chance for collateral damage. Wheeled vehicles only, without large caliber munitions above a .50 cal machine gun.

    Freedom fighters. I see no difference from what hamas did to what Israelis did today, killing 300 civilians in a hospital.

    It's an obvious war crime but as we have established, in this war there are no rules.

    Israel-Hamas war live updates: Hamas says it will release civilian hostages if Israel stops Gaza strikes

    A senior Hamas armed commander was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza, Hamas’ armed wing Izz el-Deen Al-Qassam Brigades said Tuesday on Telegram, according to a Google translation. The Israeli air force later confirmed the killing.

    Ayman Nofal was a member of the General Military Council and commander of the Central Brigade in the al-Qassam Brigades, the Palestinian militant group said.

    The Israeli military has said that the next steps of its campaign against Palestinian militant group Hamas need not be a long-anticipated ground incursion.

    ... https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/17/israel-hamas-war-gaza-live-updates-latest-news.html

    An interesting progression in Hamas's attitude if true. From promising live-streamed executions for unannounced strikes to offering to release the hostages if the strikes stop. It's clear that Israel enjoys a position of overwhelming power and Hamas leadership is starting to feel a little desperate.
