    So now it is a couple days later and the Hamas Health Ministry still has not produced any bodies with bullet holes. Of course, all this leaves are the conflicting claims.


    Palestinians say Israeli troops fired at people seeking food. Israel says scene was deadly stampede

    Let's take a look at all the Egyptian corruption and bribes -- which only serve to bring more hard to the situation. Whether it is to let individuals leave Gaza or to allow an aid truck to enter Gaza -- huge bribes are paid to Egyptian officials.

    Corruption in Egypt – its guards are its thieves!

    Want Out of Gaza? Pay Us $10,000
    In Gaza, a bribery industry is flourishing at the Rafah crossing into Egypt on the backs of displaced Gazans trying to skirt Israel's bombs. Egypt denies this, but 'the most senior officials in Cairo' are involved, an Egyptian researcher says

    The laughable denial from Egypt...

    Egypt denies that Palestinians fleeing Gaza are being 'forced to pay' extortionate bribes

    Egypt has called accusations that Gazans are being forced to pay extortionate bribes to leave 'groundless' despite a recent investigation

    besides the last two sources, the rest are irrelevant. Israel should really let aid through their borders if they want to deflect fault from the well documented double/triple/quadruple checks they force trucks to which has slowed aid to a crawl.

    sure, double down on stupid, that's worked so well for you thus far. Note, even if "died by stampede", this is still on Israel.

    Those are good questions.

    Let's investigate ...

    Here are a few Hamas officials.

    But where are they going?

    Somewhere in there maybe?

    This one looks awfully worried about his people.

    Backbreaking government work still requires occasional fuel.

    [​IMG]
    This one is not a Hamas leader but is instead one of their children. He looks to be preparing to fight for the cause.


    So, to answer the questions from the man in the video, your government is waging a tough battle out there for you and the Palestinian people.;)

    Makes perfect sense. Giving Fort Israel money, arms and ammunition for their genocide project, and then spending more money to bypass their genocide project.

    This war is a particularly nasty war.
    Now if Russia gets involved.......

    My opinion, I'd like to see Israel taken down a notch, their apartheid policies against Palestine, the deceipt and land theft should not be supported by American aid.
    Israel have this entitled and bullying attitude which is fueled by American taxpayer money.

    American needs to fuck off out of the Middle East but they are forever drawn into it because of supporting Israel due to the myths within the bible.
    Politician swears their allegance over the bible......

    Use of Bibles

    Joe Biden takes the oath of office on the Biden family Bible, January 20, 2021
    By convention, incoming presidents raise their right hand and place the left on a Bible while taking the oath of office. In 1789, George Washington took the oath of office with an altar Bible borrowed from the St. John's Lodge No. 1, Ancient York Masons lodge in New York, and he kissed the Bible afterward.[19][20] Subsequent presidents up to and including Harry S. Truman, followed suit.[21] Dwight D. Eisenhower said a prayer in the end instead of kissing the Bible in 1953.[22]

    Thomas Jefferson and Calvin Coolidge did not use a Bible in their oath-taking ceremonies.[23] Theodore Roosevelt did not use the Bible when taking the oath in 1901,[23][24] nor did John Quincy Adams, who swore on a book of law, with the intention that he was swearing on the constitution.[25] Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in at his first inauguration on a Roman Catholic missal on Air Force One, believing it was a Bible, in the immediate aftermath of the assassination of John F. Kennedy; he swore in on a Bible at his second inauguration.[23][26] Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, George H. W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump each swore the oath on two Bibles.[24] The large leather-bound Bible used by Joe Biden had been in the Biden family since 1893.[27]
