Which if I'm not mistaken, even if it was Hamas using the ambulances, it would still be a war crime: I have to say I'm morbidly happy that the IDF isn't even trying to deny that they bombed the hospital, except by very weakly saying "we were targeting the ambulance" parked outside the hospital. The gas lighting over the past few weeks was giving me anxiety. Confirmation on the Jerusalem Post as well, where they're trying to spin it as "they totally got hamas terrorists, and those ambulances were full of weapons actually!!" https://www.jpost.com/arab-israeli-conflict/article-771619 Verisimilidude fucked around with this message at 20:15 on Nov 3, 2023 |

Awful but not particularly surprising given that they did the same thing during Operation Protective Edge (and Swords of Iron has been like Protective Edge x100 so far). The question will be whether they launch direct strikes to destroy Al-Shifa Hospital - I think it's highly likely since they've been laying the groundwork to do so by talking about how Hamas is operating out of it and how their tunnel network is all under it in the past few weeks. Things are probably going to get a lot worse.

Here's a joint statement by UNICEF/UNRWA/UNFPA/WHO that they just put out: https://www.unicef.org/press-releases/women-and-newborns-bearing-brunt-conflict-gaza-un-agencies-warn Hopefully more national organizations keep up with these statements and can chip away at various countries' support of Israel in this.

They talk about bombing a convoy of ambulances leaving the hospital. Also, is it really so impossible that it was in fact full of weapons/Hamas? If I were Hamas, I'd probably use ambulances to move things around so as to not attract attention and deter strikes. That incentive seems pretty clear to me. I don't see the incentive for Israel to bomb ambulances carrying non-combatants or not carrying key infrastructure of Hamas, other than to terrorize the population. But given how many eyes are on this conflict I find it hard to believe that some IDF commander is calling shots like that. That's not to say that mistakes can't happen, and that sick and extreme people who hold sway over the lives of innocents don't exist. But I just can't see most IDF leaders waking up and going "ok let's bomb some drat ambulances today!" as a policy.

Israel bombs ambulances so regularly Jenin had a horse sculpture made out of the wreckage of ambulances. Occupation forces destroyed the sculpture this week. Also having seen video of the aftermath it's right at the hospital. There's absolutely zero way they could've known "Hamas" was in the ambulances. Stop posting.

It seems highly plausible to me that the IDF commanders who woke up and went "okay let's bomb a refugee camp today and the next day, too" are not above waking up and going "okay let's bomb some ambulances today."

The onus on proving otherwise should be on the party that made the decision to bomb ambulances. Given their repeatedly demonstrated willingness to simply lie or even actively create disinformation, the word of the IDF or the Israeli government is not sufficient, in my opinion.

No one is being forced to murder children Like seriously, doesn't Israel have these super loving commandos we keep hearing about? You think if you're trying to kill or capture a single guy, you'd just risk a bunch of squaddies to stop an ambulance and haul off with the guy. It's like that the goal isn't to stop terrorists, it's to blow up ambulances.

If all you have to do to avoid it being a war crime is say "I think there was a terrorist in that ambulance / hospital / park / refugee camp / school", then there's no such thing as a war.crime any more.

If the ambulance was a secret Hamas APC it would not have produced dead children, and if it needed to be bombed, it could have been targeted in transit instead of at a hospital. These are all post-hoc rationalizations because IDF command did wake up and decide to bomb a hospital, and you cannot seriously engage with them in good faith.
