IDF Lies Exposed Again
At least 31 people were killed and more than 170 injured on Sunday as large crowds gathered to receive food in the Gaza Strip, according to health officials and witnesses.
- 11 minutes
The head of the United Nations is
calling for an independent investigation
following a deadly incident
at a Gaza aid site on Sunday.
At least 31 people were killed
and more than 200 wounded,
according to eyewitnesses on the ground
and doctors who spoke to NBC news.
[00:00:15]
They say the Israeli Defense Forces
opened fire on a group of civilians
gathering at an aid distribution point.
Now the IDF
and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation,
the group distributing that aid, deny
the military, opened fire on civilians.
[00:00:31]
Well, no one should take anything.
Any anyone in the IDF
has to say at face value.
And we're going to kind of delve
into this story
and try to figure out what's going on.
As NBC news reports, there is a new Israel
approved aid distribution system
on the ground in Gaza in lieu of unwra,
which they effectively defamed
[00:00:49]
and pushed out of the region.
Unsurprisingly, it's not off to a
great start as over two dozen Palestinians
have been killed.
That happened at one point
at one of the aid sites
just this past weekend, on Sunday.
Now, the IDF insists that it is not
to blame for the carnage.
[00:01:07]
And if you're wondering
if we should believe them.
Well, reporter Jeremy Scahill, who's the
co-founder of drop Site News, argues no.
And here's why.
The Israelis unleashed gunfire
and other attacks on this crowd.
And as videos and reports start coming
out of Gaza depicting this,
[00:01:24]
and we start hearing international doctors
that are on the ground there describing
the injuries that they're treating.
Israel then puts out a video
that it says actually shows Hamas was
firing on people retrieving aid.
Well, that video that the Israelis put out
has now been geolocated.
[00:01:40]
And it wasn't near Rafah, where,
where this, Wittkopf massacre, as the
Palestinians are calling it, occurred, but
actually had occurred at a different time.
And it wasn't Hamas that was
actually firing on Palestinians.
It was a private gang that there's
significant evidence to suggest is being
[00:01:57]
bankrolled or backed by the Israelis
to operate as kind of an armed thug force
that is selling aid to Palestinians.
Real classy.
Now, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation
is the name of this new group that's
[00:02:13]
allegedly, trying to get humanitarian aid
to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
There are four new aid
distribution sites in Gaza.
All of them are in the southern half
of the territory.
The sites are controlled
by the United States and Israel supported
[00:02:29]
Gaza Humanitarian Aid Foundation,
or G. And it's run by American security
contractors, ex-military officers
and humanitarian aid officials.
The Associated Press reports
that it is not known where the funding
for this organization is even coming from.
[00:02:47]
The G. H states that it has
over $100 million
in commitments from an EU government,
but they haven't been clear or upfront
about which government
they're talking about,
which European country is funding them.
And the organization was being run
by a United States military veteran
[00:03:03]
by the name of Jake Wood,
but he actually recently stepped down.
He stated he was resigning because it was
clear the organization would not be
allowed to operate independently, which is
the least surprising part of this story.
Now, Mohammed Salem,
who is a father of five in Gaza,
[00:03:20]
told drop site News about what it is
like to get aid from one of the sites.
And here's what he experienced
just last week on Tuesday.
Quote.
When I arrived at the site, I saw hundreds
of people lining up in front of iron
gates, surrounded by security forces,
fences topped with surveillance cameras.
[00:03:38]
The entry process was strict,
starting with ID checks
and ending with an eye scan,
which significantly slowed down access.
As the crowd swelled,
people began pushing toward the gate
and broke through the fence by force,
causing the security personnel to flee.
[00:03:54]
The entire scene descended into chaos
as people rushed toward
the stacked aid parcels in a desperate
attempt to grab whatever they could.
I was lucky that I managed to grab
two food parcels amidst the chaos,
as people tried to leave
with whatever they had taken.
[00:04:10]
Israeli helicopters flew overhead and
opened fire on the crowd, injuring dozens.
Now he had to travel around two
and a half miles to reach the hubs,
which is dangerous on its own because
if Palestinians make the wrong move,
if they happen to be in a zone
that Israel has marked
[00:04:29]
as like a war zone within the Gaza Strip.
I mean, the whole strip is a war zone,
but there are certain areas
where they'll just start shooting
and killing without asking any questions.
Now, the GPS has stated that it will
make more hubs available in the North
within the next 30 days, but has not
stated exactly where they plan to do it.
[00:04:47]
Veteran aid officials across the UN
and other international humanitarian aid
organizations have denounced the program,
describing the conditions as resembling
concentration camps or ghettos,
and Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu does not seem to have
much interest in making or creating
more aid sites within the Gaza Strip.
[00:05:05]
Just last week, he said that under
the aid mechanism, Gaza's population
would eventually be moved
to a sterile zone in Gaza's far south.
He said it was for their protection while
Israeli forces fight Hamas elsewhere.
He also said once the Palestinians enter
the area, they don't necessarily go back.
[00:05:24]
Well, we already know that Israel's plan
is to ethnically cleanse Palestinians
from the Gaza Strip to steal their land,
and the notion
that they're being moved to a tiny,
tiny part of the region in the South
for their safety is very reminiscent
of how Palestinians in the north
were evacuated to the south so the IDF can
[00:05:42]
bomb them as they evacuated to the south.
I don't believe Netanyahu at all.
I don't believe the IDF at all.
And I mean, we all remember what
various members of the Israeli government
were saying about humanitarian aid
being let into the Gaza Strip recently.
[00:06:00]
They said they just wanted
to provide a facade that they're providing
humanitarian aid in order
to not get any pushback from Americans.
In order to get all the weapons and bombs,
they need to continue carrying out
the slaughter of Palestinians
in this ongoing genocide in Gaza.
So this is genocide 101.
[00:06:17]
So, first of all,
in almost every genocide,
the aggressor says they were just moving
the ethnic minority for their own safety.
So the Germans said they were
moving the Jews for their safety.
It turns out they were lying.
[00:06:32]
The Turks said they were moving
the Armenians for their safety.
Turns out they were lying.
Now here comes the Israelis saying,
oh, we're moving them
into a tiny little area in the South, and
then we're taking control over their food.
And once they come to food,
we murder them for their own safety.
[00:06:51]
Is it, you know,
they would have been a lot more safe
if they just got to stay in their house.
Oh, that's right, you destroyed 90%
of Gaza because that's who you are.
You're genociders.
Okay, so now I studied genocides
for a number of different reasons.
[00:07:07]
And, and I had a debate at UCLA
with on international law of genocide.
And so the Israeli side lost so badly,
even though they were actually
theoretically, international lawyers.
And I'm not, that she just resorted to.
Oh, yeah, you're a parasite.
[00:07:24]
I'm like, oh, also something that people
who are in favor of genocide
do dehumanize their opponents, especially
when they have absolutely no facts to back
it up at all, which is the case here.
So in those studies I read about
Serbaneasa Srebrenica is a genocide,
[00:07:41]
declared so by the United Nations
and all international communities
and organizations in Srebrenica.
The Serbs killed 8000 Muslims.
So right now, the Israelis have killed
a minimum of 54,000 Palestinians, over
[00:07:56]
30,000 of which are women and children.
Okay, so what did they do in Srebrenica?
Eventually, the Serbs realized,
hey, you know what?
These guys need food.
You know, you could lay siege
to a town like in the old days.
So they cut off their food
until they were starving,
and then they brought out food for them.
[00:08:14]
And when they did, of course, the Muslims
in that area rushed out to get the food
because they were not forget them.
Their kids were starving to death.
And when they rushed to get the food,
the Serbs murdered them.
Oh, look, that's exactly
what just happened here.
And in the flour massacre and in
several other cases where Israel goes,
[00:08:33]
come here, come get the food.
And in this case, fired on by tanks,
drones, 100% Israel.
That did it.
And they go, oh, did we murder you
while we were giving you aid?
My God, beware of Israelis bearing gifts.
Okay, so.
[00:08:51]
But the Palestinians don't have a choice
either their kids are going to die
of starvation, or they're going to risk
going out there and dying.
By the way, of the people
that were slaughtered here, as usual,
mostly women and children, that's
like an Israeli calling card, right?
So, hey, don't oppose us.
We'll murder your family.
[00:09:07]
And they literally have a program
called Where's Daddy?
Where the.
I picks a random person in Gaza.
And then when they.
But they wait for them to get home.
And then when they get home,
they murder everyone in the family.
And that's genocide 101.
And apparently these days, Israel 101.
[00:09:24]
If you don't like it,
change until you change.
Israel is committing
one of the worst genocides of my lifetime.
It's disgusting.
Okay, so then one of our members
on YouTube asks JPL, JPL 1886
[00:09:40]
how the heck does the IDF deny something
they're clearly on camera doing?
Why?
- They do it all the time?
- No, they do it every time.
So now if they were, if we treated the
American press, treated them like Baghdad
Bob, who used to do the same thing.
[00:09:56]
He was Saddam Hussein's spokesperson
in Iraq when we were invading.
And he would say,
there are no Americans behind us, and
there'd be an American tank behind him.
Okay. And so.
But what did the press do?
They ridiculed him.
Ha ha ha! Baghdad.
Bob. What a stupid liar, right?
What does the American press do with
the grotesque, ridiculous lies of the IDF?
[00:10:17]
The IDF reports
this is 50 over 50. We can't tell.
It's the Hamas health ministry.
Oh, I don't know if you can trust those
numbers, but the IDF, the most moral army
in the world, says that they didn't do it.
Just magically, things popped up.
Hamas. Hamas.
It's all Hamas's fault, right?
[00:10:33]
And the dogs in American media go. Yes.
Israel's right. Rub, rub, rub, rub, rub.
Israel's right. Israel's right.
Palestinians? Who cares?
Their lives are not important.
31 people killed.
If 31 Israelis were killed.
We'll talk about it
for two years straight.
And you all know it.
The worst attack that's ever happened.
[00:10:52]
Because it was Israeli lives,
which is worth 100,000 Palestinian lives.
I don't mind you considering
Israeli lives that valuable.
Of course they are. They're human beings.
But when you tell me that Palestinian
lives are not that important and
that Israel can slaughter them at will?
[00:11:10]
And anyone who complains
is an anti-Semite.
Yes, American media, you're guilty.
You're guilty, and you're deeply racist
against Palestinians because you don't
think Palestinian lives matter at all.
Oh I'm sorry.
Go check with the IDF, your boss,
as to what the talking point
[00:11:27]
you're supposed to put out about this new
massacre, this new part of the genocide.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You wouldn't want to offend IDF.
You don't want to call it a genocide.
Just pretty it up for them, you know,
make it sound like it's not so bad.
Make it 50 over 50 like the oil companies
do with climate change, and the tobacco
companies did with cancer. 50 over 50.
Let's just confuse the Americans.
[00:11:45]
And what should we do next? Let me guess.
Send billions more to Israel
to slaughter more Palestinians.
But don't complain
because Israeli feelings are way more
important than Palestinian lives.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
[00:12:02]
Totally not true, but it does
keep you updated on our live shows.
