Of course - they're not comparable in certain aspects but they are in others. Both were unverified, and have been used as a basis for military intervention rhetoric. This thread is a great example of the social aspects of misinformation - I'd encourage you to read through the pages of when the notion of beheaded babies was first announced. People are using it to justify a total annihilation of Gaza.
But in any case - I think you and I are largely agreed on the wider point.
Who?
Well if this is indeed true and with oficial confirmation, I'm afraid it's going to be hell on earth for Gaza. Even worse than what already is. No chance of any compromise whatsoever, now or in the future.
Jeez, wonder how Israeli society is responding to this.
Amongst all that and all the handwringing and the kids trying to justify any of it, I'd love to know what Hamas think this will get them. It's almost certain Gaza will be flattened and Hamas in Gaza will cease to exist. Or is it just the leadership safe in Qatar are happy to sacrifice a few hundred thousand people to get in Iran's good books.
As far as I know, not even ISIS beheaded babies. I've never imagined we can see terror worse than from ISIS. It's even fecking up my mind, although I've seen most gruesome Ukrainian war footage. I need a pause from this and I sincerely hope the IDF lied in this case.
The actions of Hamas, a terrorist organisation is barbaric and is condemnable. However, two wrongs cannot make a right and the current bombing of Gaza will put innocent lives at risk. The only way forward is to de-escalate the conflict and begin genuine discussions about the solution for palestine. I know it is a bitter pill to swallow but someone must break the circle of violence.
Stunningly evil.
I have no words.
I suspect we're being gaslit with the decapitated babies story.
The ISIS comparisons were legit it seems.
An atrocity. Abhorrent.
God rest their souls.
Christ.
There's reports of decapitated babies, and it's the pro-Israel lobby that's having a mare? OK.
