Revelations by the Israelis themselves fuel much of the criticism against them. From Younis Tirawi and Sami Vanderlip at dropsitenews.com:
Inside one Israeli battalion’s yearlong mission of destruction
In mainstream Western media, the coverage of Israel’s year of scorched-earth destruction often touches on the victims and events happening in Gaza in the passive voice. Death and destruction befall Palestinians the way a city suffers from a hurricane or an earthquake—though in those cases, the media has little difficulty identifying the natural disaster as the cause of the destruction. When it comes to Gaza, buildings mysteriously explode and people die. Rarely do we see the Israeli military identified as having carried out the act—and never do we see individual members of the military named and identified, their actions described in detail, broken down by unit and task. In fact, doing so in Israel is illegal.
The stated rationale for that censorship is operational security, but according to a report from Israel’s Channel 13, the real aim is to dodge accountability for war crimes. If that’s true, the soldiers themselves work against this cover up on a daily basis—posting endless photos, videos, and montages from the homes and neighborhoods of Gaza they are razing. That’s where this investigation begins.
Journalists Younis Tirawi and Sami Vanderlip have managed to find and archive all the Instagram stories and daily posts shared by the soldiers of one key unit, Israel’s 749 Combat Engineering Battalion. They’ve mapped out the structure of the unit and identified the individual soldiers and officers involved, along with their various roles in operations. They have tracked the activities of each company in the battalion, including what they were doing, when, and where, as the force shred their way through Gaza.
The mission is nothing less than a systematic, concerted, and deliberate effort to erase the intellectual, cultural, and social future of the Palestinian people. “Our job is to flatten Gaza,” the soldiers of the official D9 company of the battalion wrote on their Instagram page. They added, accurately: “No one will stop us.”
Everybody throwing down the gauntlet in a WTF you gonna do about it mode.
Acting tough killing women and children with arms supplied by Uncle Satan.
What’s the KIA count for IDF?
Did you hear about the six Merkava tanks destroyed the other day?
I thought they were “chosen” tanks?
Some don’t fear the Ultraviolence or a 3AM brass knuckle brawl in the parking lot so be careful Long March faculty lounge comrades.
Watching the Al Jazeera war crimes video. (H/T-UNZ)
The ICC is taking names and keeping track and I’m sure Arabs are watching these videos of Star of Remphan carvings in the back, kicking people until they urinate and then ridicule them, one women with no head scarf in a truck full of men, she said she was beaten on the back head and the handcuffs were too tight, taking out civilian apartment buildings after smashing and looting, stating out loud he was tortured to talk.
Dance raves singing “may your village burn” and pop songs celebrating the slaughter.
These things happen when you are the chosen Sons of Satan.
