  • Two direct quotes from your link:

    The ministry never distinguishes between civilians and combatants. That becomes clearer after the dust settles, when the U.N. and rights groups investigate and militant groups offer a tally of members killed. The Israeli military also conducts post-war investigations.

    The Health Ministry doesn’t report how Palestinians were killed, whether from Israeli airstrikes and artillery barrages or other means, like errant Palestinian rocket fire. It describes all casualties as victims of “Israeli aggression.”

    To be clear, this means that in the records of the Gazan medical system there is no difference at all between a rocket blowing up in the face of a squad of terrorists trying to launch it, and a mosque full of pensioners getting hit by an IDF air strike.




  • Ah yes, 90 second long video by Al Jazeera (known for posting literal Holocaust denial on their social media) with sources as reputable as… videos from random Facebook and TikTok pages…

    Christ the state of source evaluation these days.

    The closest I can find from a source without a history of public Holocaust denial is that essentially Egypt closed it after nearby strikes, and is refusing to open it until there are no strikes even somewhat nearby. A pretty far cry from the “made inoperable” nonsense in this dumpster fire of an article


  • Did you read the article? It makes claims about “Cairo” and “Egypt” saying something, never actually quoting any entity from the Egyptian government on the reason the pass is not operational. The foreign minister says merely that there is “an urgent need”, whatever the hell that means. The writers very conveniently leave out any reliable quotations for the single most contentious part of the entire piece. If anybody credible actually believed that Israel bombed this crossing, the authors would have no trouble finding a quote saying so.
