IDF's DEVASTATING Strike On Hospital Kills Dozens, Including 5 Journalists
An Israeli airstrike on Nasser hospital in Gaza killed dozens, including journalists and was caught on camera.
- 11 minutes
Jewel strikes on the NASA medical complex
in Khan Yunis killed at least 20 people,
including journalists,
according to Gaza health officials.
This video showing the chaos
in the aftermath of the first strike.
Now the IDF claiming it, quote,
does not target journalists as such
[00:00:18]
and saying the military chief
has instructed an inquiry into the attack.
Well, neither the statements from Israel
nor their investigation
means anything at all.
At least that's what the nearly two
year genocide in Gaza has taught anyone
[00:00:34]
with two brain cells to rub together.
Now, at least 20 people were killed
in two back to back Israeli air strikes
on the Nasser Hospital complex
in the southern end of the Gaza Strip.
Now, it appears that Israel conducted
the second strike, known as a double tap,
[00:00:51]
specifically because civil defense teams
and journalists arrived on the scene.
Now, let's take a look at that.
Now, we know that after that first strike
targeted the fourth floor of the hospital.
[00:01:06]
We understand that there were emergency
workers, health workers and journalists
who all rushed to the scene.
Now we have footage that we see.
It was also played on live television,
showing those individuals on a damaged
[00:01:22]
staircase trying to retrieve casualties,
one holding up a damaged video camera
to show the journalists presence.
And then just minutes later,
there was a second strike.
Now we understand that this was
more deadly than the first,
[00:01:38]
and this is the one that did kill
many journalists and emergency workers
who were on the scene at the time.
At least four journalists
have been killed.
So since that report, it was confirmed
that more than four journalists
were killed during that.
[00:01:54]
In my opinion, intentional strike
considering hundreds of journalists
have been killed in Gaza.
And Israel, of course,
does not allow international journalists
to report on the ground.
Entered the Gaza Strip strip
and report on the ground now.
Of the journalists who were killed,
I want to identify them.
[00:02:09]
Myriam Daga, a freelance journalist
for the Associated Press.
Cameraman.
Hussam Al Masri, a Reuters contractor.
Mohammed Salam, a journalist for Al
Jazeera, photographer Hatim Khaled
and another contractor for Reuters,
and finally Moaz Abu Taha.
[00:02:27]
So those five journalists
arrived on the scene to do their jobs
to report about the Israeli strike.
And that's when Israel
did a second strike.
And I want to be clear, I want to be clear
these individuals were visible.
I'm going to go to another video,
a better angle.
[00:02:43]
So you see exactly
what I'm talking about here.
Take a look.
Hazem el Masri.
[00:03:00]
Alan. Alan.
Alan.
Alan.
Last week, one of the videos
that went viral featured a young girl
[00:03:17]
who was walking by herself
with a jug of water that she was trying
to take back to her family.
The IDF decided to bomb her
to smithereens as well.
So anyone who thinks that these are not
intentional strikes is either delusional,
[00:03:32]
or they're just a flat out liar
that just seeks to defend any and all
crimes committed by the State of Israel.
Here at the Young Turks,
we like to report the truth.
These are intentional strikes.
They are intentionally slaughtering
journalists, health care workers, doctors.
- You guys get the picture?
- Yeah.
[00:03:49]
So there's three layers to that crime.
So first, they hit a hospital.
Remember when they pretended
to be outraged that, oh,
there was in the beginning of the war,
there was an errant bomb from Islamic
Jihad that hit a hospital.
It wasn't Israel.
How all of you are anti-Semites,
blood libel, blah blah blah
[00:04:06]
for suggesting it was a hospital.
Now almost every hospital in Gaza
is destroyed and you see them hitting
a hospital again and again here.
Right.
The American doctor
I interviewed last week, by the way,
was volunteering at Nasser Hospital.
Yeah, that was the hospital.
So if there were American hospitals
on that floor,
[00:04:21]
they would have also been dead.
But they don't care
about killing Americans.
They've killed many Americans.
And the American government's response
has been, how much would you like?
We'd like to pay you
for murdering more American citizens,
because you're our special ally.
That has bribed all of us. Okay.
[00:04:36]
Legally bribed. Okay.
So now.
So they hit a hospital.
That's layer number one.
Number two is they were trying
to hit the journalists in the hospital.
Wow.
Number three is the rescue workers
go to rescue people in the hospital
and the reporters,
and they've got orange vests on.
[00:04:53]
You saw it with your own eyes, right?
It is.
Those were as clear rescue workers
as you've ever seen.
They're in a bomb site.
They're trying to pull people out.
They have orange vests on.
And Israel sees them
as clear as you do, right?
Because they have excellent technology.
And as that same American doctor
explained,
[00:05:09]
there's a drone that is constant
in all of the Palestinian cities in Gaza.
And they're constantly monitoring
and have excellent surveillance.
So they know for a fact that they were
murdering rescue workers and hitting
a hospital and hitting journalists.
So, look, they've killed more human
rights workers than any other conflict.
[00:05:29]
They've killed more reporters.
Now they're up to 231 since.
240, according to the UN. Okay. 240.
Now it's it's I mean for just
got out of today, right?
So they've killed 240 journalists.
That is more than all
other conflicts on Earth combined.
[00:05:45]
They're slaughtering the journalists. Why?
Because they don't want anybody
to see their crimes.
That's what criminals do.
That's what murderers do.
They try to clean up the witnesses
by killing them.
And so they're killing them
right in front of your eyes, though.
And? And this is them partly robbing.
I mean, they'll go and deny it.
[00:06:01]
They'll say no.
Everyone there was a terrorist.
- They have a different cover story today.
- You know?
Yeah, there was a terrorist there once,
and then there was a mistake,
and we're investigating it,
and we'll get back to you.
They never get back to you.
They never investigated.
They're giant liars.
[00:06:16]
They murder, murder, murder, murder.
And like, it doesn't matter.
We can murder endlessly because we have
the American government on our side.
And the American taxpayers
are made to pay for all our crimes.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
So the bomb that was used, the two bombs,
I guess because it was a double tap.
[00:06:33]
They hit the hospital twice.
Paid for by the US taxpayer.
Congratulations.
Having trouble with your health care?
Too bad.
It's just beyond frustrating now.
Israel really remains undeterred
in regard to committing all sorts
[00:06:49]
of war crimes since the United States
has emboldened them
to do anything and everything they want,
and we give them the bombs to do it now.
Israeli military spokesperson
Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani
did confirm the strikes on X
and pretended as though targeting
journalists is not part of their policy.
[00:07:06]
It absolutely is.
Earlier today, Monday,
IDF troops carried out a strike in
the area of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis.
The chief of the General Staff
instructed to conduct an initial inquiry
as soon as possible.
They're investigating and it was not
in the area of the hospital.
[00:07:24]
- It was on the.
- It was on the hospital.
Yeah, but don't worry.
They're they're investigating.
They got people working around the clock.
The IDF regrets any harm
to uninvolved individuals
and does not target journalists as such.
You guys have killed
240 journalists in Gaza.
Will not allow reporters, international
reporters to enter the Gaza Strip
[00:07:42]
to do their jobs and report on the ground.
And that's very much intentional
because Israel is carrying out a genocide,
and they still want their
pathetic defenders in the United States
to have plausible deniability.
But I'm sorry, brothers and sisters,
we've seen the IDF's internal documents
[00:07:59]
indicating that 83% of people that they've
killed in Gaza are civilians. 83%, 83%.
You're going to tell me
this isn't a genocide.
You're going to tell me
this isn't the intentional slaughter
of innocents, of doctors, of journalists,
of first responders
[00:08:17]
who are trying to rescue people.
It is it is. It absolutely is.
And anyone who's trying to tell
you otherwise is just lying to you.
Netanyahu pretends like he
deeply regrets what happened.
Israel deeply regrets
the tragic mishap that occurred today.
[00:08:33]
Mishap. How do you how is a double strike?
- Okay, a double tap, a mishap.
- It is a mishap.
I'll explain. Okay, so go ahead.
Yeah, it's a mishap because it's on tape.
So they do this all the time, but they
never apologize, and they never pretend
[00:08:51]
that there's going to be an inquiry
unless it's already on tape.
Because once it's on tape, you can't say,
oh, you didn't do a double tap.
We all just saw it
with our own eyes, right?
If it's not on tape,
they'll be like it never happened.
Plus, they were all terrorists.
Plus they deserved it.
Plus, we didn't do it.
[00:09:08]
Plus we're awesome. Send us more money.
Right?
But when they have it on tape
and it bothers people viscerally,
then they go, oh, here's a mishap.
Mishap?
That son of a bitch caught it on tape.
We'll murder him later, okay?
But we'll try to keep that one off camera.
But that's why they're pretending.
[00:09:25]
Otherwise they don't even pretend.
So, And so now, look, two things
about that, one is, Unless Israel
allow international journalists
to do their jobs on the ground in Gaza.
Okay, American journalists and media
organizations need to stop regurgitating
[00:09:44]
the The lies coming from the Israelis?
Yeah, how about that?
So the Israeli government has
the worst track record I have ever seen
in the middle of a conflict.
They make Baghdad Bob look, credible.
So Baghdad Bob was this hilarious
propagandist for Saddam Hussein,
and he'd say things like,
there are no Americans in Baghdad
[00:10:00]
as American tanks were rolling behind him.
Okay.
And Israelis are like, no,
we've killed no one in Gaza.
And we've been so careful in Gaza.
You see, all of Gaza's leveled,
all the hospitals are gone,
all the schools are gone.
You have an 83% civilian kill ratio.
[00:10:15]
And our moronic anchors on cable news
are still like, no, but Israel denies it.
No, no, no, Israel's great.
Israel's not awesome.
They say it was all Hamas. Hamas?
Hamas? Hamas.
Do you apologize for Hamas?
You condemn Hamas. Okay.
That's how they start
every stupid interview two years into
[00:10:32]
a bloody slaughterhouse in Gaza.
Okay.
How you should start an interview
is do you condemn Israel, which is
obviously acting as a terrorist state?
But to me, the thing that I was going
to mention is, I mean,
of all the billion things
that get under my skin in this conflict is
so we just took away health care from 12
million people in the last budget bill.
[00:10:51]
- Okay.
- In America.
In America.
So 12 million Americans will not get
health care because we don't have enough
money, but we send money to Israel
to kill health care workers in Gaza.
We ran out of health care for us
because we were too busy helping Israel
[00:11:08]
murder health care workers in Gaza,
let alone the fact that they
have universal health care
and paid family leave and Iron Dome.
And they have everything we don't have.
We have a $37 trillion dollar debt.
They have almost no debt because we're the
suckers paying for everything for Israel,
[00:11:25]
including their slaughter of journalists
and health care workers and any witnesses.
Why are we still funding
these disgusting terrorists?
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets his wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
