‘The left has really let us down.’ Why many American Jews feel abandoned [More]
Seeing as how the ones being talked about here spent their adult lives voting me and mine closer to the camp, why should I feel sorry for them?
I saw a troubling Twitter/X post that I believe merits further serious investigation, especially since it looks like we’re all being dragged along for the ride in a politically and media-fueled feeding frenzy that exploits our demands for justice and our fear.
We all have an existential interest in this.
It’s stipulated the person in the video sides with the Palestinians. Can we get a similar stipulation for those stirring the pot? The question for us, as “jurors,” is if her testimony is credible or if we could honestly assign a “guilty” verdict on Hamas misfiring rockets beyond a reasonable doubt.
And yes, of course, we all saw the parachutes. That’s a different discussion. I’m only asking about the hospital incident. If you can demonstrate Sara El-Yafi’s arguments are false, I’m asking you to be an expert witness and educate us on the “jury.”
Tangentially-Related UPDATE
Here’s some more fuel for the fire.
Thing is… (grab the video before they block it again)

I can’t be an expert witness, but I can’t even imagine what this woman claims she’s “proving.” Especially since in those 23 years, I would estimate that Hamas/Hamas-adjacent have taken out at least half that number of their own people mishandling terrorist munitions. A much more plausible explanation is that their forces are incompetent at anything more complicated than murdering teenagers, grandmothers, and babies with rifles and hand-to-hand. And that the hospital explosion is just another case of “own goal” for which these people are infamous (there is an audio tape purported to be one Palestinian officer reporting this to another). As far as the 500-person casualty count goes, let nobody forget these are Hamas numbers, and they can claim any number they please (you will note that they claimed this number before any reasonable person could even have made an initial damage assesment and casualty count). Add to all this the common knowledge that Hamas makes a deliberate habit of basing its military installations inside schools and hospitals for the “human shield” benefits, so even if it was an Israeli strike it was quite possibly justified.
