This source is heavily biased against Israel. I wouldn't trust them for news regarding this conflict.
Step 2: show that what they said was wrong.
Dudes drunk the koolaid. Probably not worth the effort to get him to think critically
These people are straight up dogs of the empire. This user's history is just denying the ongoing genocide and defending "israel" and the US's "democracy"
Because I disagree with you the only possible explanation is that I don't think critically? Piss off.
Because you've got some naive beliefs about the state of the world ...
We should just agree to block each other. Cheers
I said it was from a biased source, not that it was wrong, but if you want to see an example of why it's bad compare the death count in the CNN report vs. this one. It's not "thousands" gunned down, even according to Hamas:
It also includes IDF statements which paint a very different picture of events:
I don't believe anything offhand from such a source, especially on matters regarding Israel, nor should you. Stick to credible organizations if you prefer objective reporting to emotionally charged propaganda.
Israel is responsible for making these people desperate enough that they get trampled in a rush for scarce food. Israel also admits it opened fire on a crowd of hungry civilians. Nothing about this makes the IDF look anything other than very bad.
Although that may be true, a shooting by defense forces at a chaotic scene of looting is certainly more understandable and less egregious than opening fire on innocent people orderly lining up. This article distorts the fundamental facts of what happened. It's clear they want to make Israel look as villainous as possible, objectivity be damned.
You ok?
Don't you think articles should include statements from both relevant parties?

They're biased against a genocidal fascist state? Say it isn't so!
I suspect this story from CNN is about the same incident: https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/29/middleeast/gaza-city-deaths-food-israel-intl/index.html
Thanks!
