        This isn’t reddit. If you wanted to have a discussion, why are you starting off with a loaded, inaccurate question? Seems pretty disingenuous if you ask me 🤔🤔

        They said Israel and not the Jewish people. There’s a distinction between the two and that distinction is important.

      If it’s passive voice, the atrocities are committed by Israel. If it’s active voice, the atrocities are committed by Hamas.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Despite repeated calls for a ceasefire by humanitarian groups and some politicians, the war shows no sign of slowing down as Israeli forces prepare for an expected ground invasion of Gaza — the timing of which remains unclear.

    On Wednesday, Al Jazeera Arabic Bureau Chief Wael Dahdouh’s wife, 15-year-old son, 7-year-old daughter and grandson were all killed in an Israeli air raid, according to the outlet.

    “The indiscriminate assault by the Israeli occupation forces resulted in the tragic loss of [Dahdouh’s] wife, son and daughter, while the rest of his family is buried under the rubble,” Al Jazeera Media Network said in a statement.

    Further, the organization called on all authorities “to ensure the safety of journalists inside Israel, where reporters have been subject to verbal and physical abuse by civilians and security forces on multiple occasions.”

    Roshdi and Yaser are life: they gave voice to the people of Gaza, to their smiles, to the stories locked in fear, to hopes cherished secretly from the oppression of the Israeli occupation," the company said.

    Research by CPJ found that there were more than 10 incidents of assaults, arrests, threats, cyberattacks and censorship targeting journalists as they carry out their work in Israel and in the Palestinian territories of Gaza and the West Bank.


    The original article contains 1,433 words, the summary contains 212 words. Saved 85%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    As the honorable President biden said “It’s just the price of war”.

    War unfortunately brings death to innocent civilians in droves. We are still such a barbaric race :\

      Curious what you think he should say? Because I completely agree with him. It’s just a war about a magical sky God, and his magical holy land that is entirely made up and absolutely not worth fighting for.

        “It’s just the price of ethnic cleansing and genocide” really doesn’t have the same ring, does it.

          I think it sounds better actually. That’s what it is. Both sides doing the same thing. Let’s not mask it and pretend it’s anything but that.

            It’s not both sides doing the same thing. Israel has been displacing, brutalising and killing Palestinians for 70 years. Israel has a modern army, a modern air force, nuclear weapons and a functional economy.

            Since 1948, Israel has taken the vast majority of the land and continues to chip away at what little remains to Palestinians through illegal settlements in the West Bank.

            Gaza is an open air prison that Israel constantly surveils and bombs, controls who and what gets in and out and even regulates how many calories per day Gazans are allowed.

            It’s not both sides doing the same thing. It’s a settler colonial apartheid state brutalising an indigenous people who are holding on for dear life.

        Fighting to the death over dirt and rocks, basically.

        We should be reaching for the stars right about now, but here we are dying for dirt, rocks and oil…

        No it’s not. It’s about settler colonialism, apartheid and ethnic cleansing.
