Fucking war criminals.

A nation given by an occupying colonial empire to those targeted by the Holocaust, who then displace local indigenous population only to establish a far-right nazi-like nationalist government who commits a Holocaust of their own against the others. They truly became what they hated.

So much for Never Again.

How many October 7ths has Israel now committed against the civilians of Gaza, 40?

It's been 318 days since October 7, 2023, and a very rough estimate is around 40,000 fatalities, mostly civilians. On average, that's 126 dead per day since Israel started this attack. So 35 dead is actually a pretty merciful day.
