Gaza’s Health Ministry says the official death toll has topped 50,000 as Israel continues to bombard and blockade the territory, but it is widely believed the actual death toll is far higher. On Sunday, Israeli forces bombed a surgical unit at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis — the largest functioning hospital in Gaza. The attack killed two people, including Ismail Barhoum, a member of Hamas’s political bureau. Hamas said he was at the hospital for treatment for injuries suffered in an earlier Israeli strike. A 16-year-old boy was also killed in the hospital attack. The American trauma surgeon Feroze Sidhwa was at Nasser Hospital at the time of the attack and said the teenager killed was his patient.

Dr. Feroze Sidhwa: “You know, I’ve certainly never had a patient injured in an explosion, brought to the hospital, taken care of, doing well, ready to go home, and then blown up in his hospital bed. That’s a first. And that should be what we call in medicine a 'never event.' That’s not really supposed to happen. I just — I can’t emphasize enough, it just doesn’t matter who is in the hospital. It’s not legal to blow it up. It’s not legal to kill people in here. It’s not legal to attack people in here. It’s not ethical. It’s completely crazy.”

You have zero counter argument to anything i said

[–] [email protected] -4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

My whole counter argument from the beginning was let's vote in a democrate and then really come together to push for actual change. But everyone here thinks that's dumb so why keep arguing here?

Plus that chances of that happening now are slimmer than ever

Sorry to say, Gaza is barely even an issue in America anymore. We're just trying to survive at this point.

There's literally so much going on that effects us here, nobody with power has the time or energy to fight for Palestinians anymore.

I voted for someone who semi aligned with my vision for a better world. Was it 100% aligned, absolutely not. But now the person I'm charge has almost none of the alignment.

But fuck looking past a single issue or the bigger picture, right
