Israeli drones shooting children in Gaza deliberately 'day after day', UK surgeon tells MPs
Israeli drones shooting children in Gaza deliberately 'day after day', UK surgeon tells MPs
Nizam Mamode, a retired NHS doctor who recently returned after working at Nasser Hospital, said he had 'never seen anything on this scale ever'
He said at least once or twice daily, there were "mass casualty incidents," meaning that 10 to 20 people were killed and up to 40 seriously injured. He estimated that at least 60 percent of the people treated at these times were women and children.
The 62-year-old surgeon broke down three times during his testimony
You're viewing a single thread.
If they would only just kill adult men, it would be fine.
I don't think that's really the point. The point is that Israel is killing civilians including children, not soldiers.
Then why is there mention of “60% are women and children”?
Because it's hard to invoke self-defense when killing toddlers. How is it not clear?
Doesn't say "toddlers." Says "Women and children."
Because both of these groups are non-combatants in most of the world, particularly so in this conflict because Hamas is an Islamist organization. 70% (this seems to be the accurate number) of casualties being women and children implies 70%< of casualties are civilians.
Oh, I see - adult men are combatants by default.
So, like I said, if only they would just kill adult men, it would be fine.
Israel in particular has mandatory military service for men, for 36 months.
Is there a corollary mandatory service for men in Gaza or for Hamas?
It's incredibly hard to search this information, probably due to the English queries.
The point about women and children being definitively civilians in an active war zone doesn't detract from the civilian men, nor is it worth this discussion.
Are you just looking for something to get mad about?
I'm not sure where you got the idea that I'm mad about anything.
Just a common troll. Move on
My man is trying to make a point about gender equality in a genocide. People should be killed equally in genocide.
You complete me.
