What isn’t apparent, unless you read extensively, is that the IDF were targeting a HAMAS surveillance camera that Hamas had positioned on the hospital’s roof.
A Hamas surveillance camera on a hospital? Who would
have thought?
No one seems to ask why Hamas would place a camera on
the roof of a hospital – making a military target out of the people they are supposedly defending.
Under the rules of war, as defined by the Geneva
Conventions, hospitals, schools and religious venues are protected if they are only used for their prescribed civilian purpose. But if they are used for military purposes, they lose that protection and can be targeted. The world’s media are, of
course, lamenting the death of the journalists in this strike.
But nothing is as it seems in a war zone – and
neither, it seems, are the so-called “journalists”:-
Mohammed Salama of Al Jazeera appears to
have been a terrorist who invaded Israel on October 7. He uploaded scores of
pictures and videos from inside Israel. We know he took them because of the
watermark bearing his name.
The videos were not ‘news’
videos. Many of them were staged – videos of terrorists posing at the site of
their attack while Mohammed Salama himself chanted “Allahu Akbar”.
He wasn’t reporting on terror… he was participating and glorying in it.
Then there is Mariam
Abu Daqqa, [above] who did work for
the Associated Press. She also taught “journalism” courses for the Hamas “information ministry”.
It’s also alleged that she was the driver for Hasam Aslih,
a supposed news photographer who filmed Jews being slaughtered on October 7th.
A third journalist killed by the IDF was
Ahmed Abu Aziz, a delightful individual if his social media is
anything to go
Ahmed celebrated the October 7 massacre in which women were raped
and babies burned alive in front of their parents, calling it “the greatest day of our generation.” We could go on, but this should suffice?
An Israeli news Channel
12 report offers further details on the circumstances surrounding the strike at
Nasser Hospital.
According to the report, Golani Brigade troops first
identified a surveillance camera installed
by Hamas on the hospital grounds,
which they determined was being used to monitor
Israeli troop movements. Southern
Command approved a drone strike — not
a tank shelling — to neutralize the
device.
Shortly afterward, the troops spotted what they believed to be a
rifle scope near the site, assessed it as an immediate threat, and requested
urgent authorization to strike.
The division commander then
approved tank fire. Two shells were fired initially, followed by two more after
armed men were identified, for a total of four.
In its preliminary findings, published earlier today,
the IDF said the hospital’s camera had been used by Hamas to track troop
movements and direct attacks.
Hamas has turned hospitals into command centres,
weapons depots, and places to hold hostages. For Hamas, a civilian equals a
human shield, a journalist equals a Hamas operative. This is a calculated and
cynical method designed to maximize civilian casualties.
These are the facts - but don’t try and tell the
world’s media this.
