Hamas has spent years stockpiling desperately needed fuel, food and medicine, as well as ammo and weapons, in the miles of tunnels it has carved out under Gaza.

            I saw the CNN interview. She didn’t mention the Israeli troops murdering civilians. The interview was with an Israeli radio station and reported on by Haaretz, which is a well known Israeli newspaper.

              I cannot find any sign of Yasmin Porat’s name on Haaretz, at least not in their English site. Can you link to the report you’re talking about?

                Sorry, Haaretz wasn’t her, it was a guy named Tuval, but is in Hebrew. He said:

                Haaretz reports: “According to him [Tuval], only on Monday night and only after the commanders in the field made difficult decisions – including shelling houses with all their occupants inside in order to eliminate the terrorists along with the hostages – did the IDF [Israeli army] complete the takeover of the kibbutz. The price was terrible: at least 112 Be’eri people were killed. Others were kidnapped. Yesterday, 11 days after the massacre, the bodies of a mother and her son were discovered in one of the destroyed houses. It is believed that more bodies are still lying in the rubble.”

                Jacobin article about Yasmin Porat. But again, that references the radio interview, which has been removed since. This is not a hill I’m willing to die on. With scant sources that reference each other and censoring, take this account with skepticism.

          What does Arabic have to do with the source you posted?

          You know that language wasn’t Arabic, right?

              I can’t believe you’re still acting like you have moral superiority here lol

              “OK, fine - I made up my whole argument, but you’re probably lying too! Afterall, it’s what I’d do!”

              I mean jeez, if you’re going to lie through your teeth about something to try and support some made up point, at least take the 5 seconds to do find out what it is you’re lying about

              Edit: lol, he blocked me - what a tool

              What? I don’t speak enough Hebrew to understand her interview in Hebrew, which is why I provided her testimony in English, which you can understand without a need of a Translation, and which also addressed your confused question of why Western media wasn’t reporting on it—it was.

              And then you went on to tell the stupidest fucking lie in this thread.

              So what are you bitching about?
