Their joy is nothing short of evil, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are Hamas command centers inside all of these kids

Oh man this article has it all.

“Also, I want to remind everyone that this ceasefire probably won’t stop us from dropping bombs. Nothing will stop us. We can do whatever we want and face no consequences because our allies abroad let us.” Truth.

We're living in the mirror universe. If you spot good news nowadays, it must be The Onion.

The headline felt like a knife twisting in my heart. Reminds me of this quote

""Children are dying." Lull nodded. "That's a succinct summary of humankind, I'd say. Who needs tomes and volumes of history? Children are dying. The injustices of the world hide in those three words."" - Steven Erikson.

Another relevant quote from the same book

"Pogroms need no reason, sir, none that can weather challenge, in any case. Difference in kind is the first recognition, the only one needed, in fact. Land, domination, pre-emptive attacks—all just excuses, mundane justifications that do nothing but disguise the simple distinction. They are not us. We are not them."
