    Let's take a look at who is responsible for the largest mass killing event of Palestinian civilians in the past two months.

    The Ministry of Health in Gaza claims that 471 people were killed when a rocket hit the parking lot of the al-Ahli Arab Hospital.

    As outlined by Human Rights Watch all the evidence shows that a Hamas rocket hit the hospital and killed all of those Palestinian civilians.

    This means the largest mass killing event in Gaza in recent weeks was done by Hamas. The number of Palestinian civilians killed by Hamas munitions is likely much higher than the al-Ahli Arab Hospital total since nearly a third of Hamas rockets fail & land in Gaza.

    The Hamas rockets don't have big enough warheads to cause that kind of damage.

    Most of the damage is from spent rocket fuel in the parking lot. The building except for some shrapnel was not taken down or badly damaged. Unfortunately there were many Palestinian civilians in or around the parking lot.

    All of this is documented in the pictures and videos from the scene -- as outlined by the Human Rights Watch report.

    Israel and Its Allies Are Repurposing the Goals and Lies of 1948 – in Gaza in 2023

    There has been a consistent pattern to Israel’s behaviour since its creation 75 years ago – just as there has been a consistent pattern to the “see no evil, hear no evil” response of western powers.

    In 1948, in events the Palestinians call their “Nakba”, or Catastrophe, 80 percent of Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their lands in what became the self-declared Jewish state of Israel.

    As Palestinians maintained at the time – and Israeli historians later confirmed from archival documents – Israel’s leaders lied when they said Palestinians had fled of their own volition, on the orders of neighbouring Arab states.

    As the historians also discovered, Israeli leaders lied when they claimed that they had pleaded, first, with the 900,000 Palestinians inside the new state’s borders to stay and, later, with the 750,000 forced into exile to return home.

    Rather, the archives showed that the new Israeli state’s soldiers had carried out terrible massacres to drive out the Palestinian population. The overall ethnic cleansing operation had a name, Plan Dalet.

    Later, Israeli leaders even lied in minimising the number of Palestinian agricultural communities they had destroyed: there were more than 500 wiped from the face of the earth by Israeli bulldozers and army sappers. Paradoxically, this procedure was popularly known by Israelis as “making the desert bloom”.

    Extraordinarily, reputable scholars, journalists and politicians in the West – those who dominate the mainstream conversation – ignored all this evidence of Israeli deceit and mendacity for decades, even after Israeli historians and archival documents supported the Palestinian account of the Nakba.

    Various strategies were adopted to keep the truth out of view. Prominent observers continued peddling discredited Israeli talking points. Others threw up their hands, arguing that the truth could not be definitively determined. And yet more declared that, even if bad things had happened, there was blame enough to go round on both sides and that, anyway, it was an excellent thing the Jewish people had a sanctuary (even if Palestinians paid the price rather than the antisemites and genocidaires in Europe).

    These defences started to crumble with the advent of social media and a digital world in which information could be disseminated more easily. Western elites hurriedly tried to shut down any critical discussion of the circumstances in which the state of Israel was birthed by labelling it as antisemitism.

    Unz is a free speech platform that is not edited for content, you have to judge according to article and author. This is another example of your 'fact checker' being wrong. Is the Nation of Islam on the far right?

    Unz is proud of being an "alternate media" platform. In actuality it is an alternate reality platform. Sadly one filled with white supremacy, antisemitism, hate, anti-vax nonsense, covid conspiracy theories and lots of other complete junk.
