Cafes, shelters, civilians in hospital bombed, maimed and massacred
Israel has committed ‘non-stop massacres’ in Gaza today as the occupation constantly escalates its campaign to exterminate the Palestinians whose land it covets.
The day began with slaughter while it was still dark, as Israel bombed refugees sheltering in the shell of a school on Yaffa Street in Gaza City. Footage from nearby showed at least three explosions as bomb after bomb struck the school:
In another attack on a Gaza hospital, Israel bombed civilians gathered on al-Wahda Street, which passes through what’s left of the al-Shifa Hospital – several strikes in quick succession. Casualties were brought into the al-Shifa and the nearby Baptist hospital:
In yet another massacre at the supposed GHF ‘aid’ station run by Israel and US mercenaries, at least thirteen people were slaughtered as they tried to get food:
And Israel bombed the al-Baqa Cafe on the Gaza shoreThe , killing at least twenty people, maiming dozens and leaving behind scenes of absolute carnage:
Journalist Nahed Hajjaj described the day as “non-stop massacres”. His colleague, journalist Bayan Abu Sultan survived the attack, barely, but was wounded:
Journalists and doctors captured some of the horrific aftermath:
And Dr Mohammed Qudaih and journalist Ibrahim Gazlih posted images from yesterday’s bloodbath, which are not for the squeamish but which Keir Starmer and his fellow genocide-enablers should be made to look at every day:
Shame on Keir Starmer his lackeys. They and the war criminals they enable and defend should be on trial in the Hague.

Was half noticing a report on otn before about (another) shithouse attack on some building (interweb cafe?) on the beachfront in gaza.
The last place where they could get a WiFi signal so mainly journalists using it.
The reporter then had the novel notion that after this particular bombing, there is NO safe place in gaza anymore…
21 months in, and she’s only just tumbled to that, for complete and utter FS.
*ITN (NOT ‘otn’)
ANYONE who doesn’t call it out is a war criminal as far as I am concerned. All they bother with are hurty words for the perpetrators.
DEATH to those who perpetrated this heinous act.
…Now remind me, just who was it, did that?
Bob Vylan? No.
Kneecap? Nah.
Corbyn? You avin a larf, mate?
None of them. Nor you, or me. It was the idf.
So a death penalty to them is only justice being done, innit, zionist and right-wing, pant-pissing gammons & gobshites?
130 charities & NGO’s including Oxfam, Save The Children & Amnesty have today (1/7/25) called for the private aid group to be closed down.
500 Palestinians have been shot to date so far whilst lining up for desperately needed food.
As someone said: “Neo-Liberalism kills!”
“Neo-Liberalism kills!”
Or, to be blunt as well as more accurate, Neo-Liberalism murders. It murders because as rabid dog so called ‘journalists’ like Adam Chapmanat Gibberish News implies here……

…..what passes for ‘Western civilisation’ in his head is clearly exceptional and its sorry excuse for ‘values’ are above and outside any rules or laws applicable to others.
“The hatred shown at the Glastonbury festival this past weekend is unprecedented. The notion that calls are made for the death of anyone, let alone the soldiers who have just played a major role in saving Western civilisation from the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran, demonstrates a form of intellectual depravity that has not been seen before.”

Meanwhile, here’s an example of the reality that Neo-Liberalism murders which is taken from the archived Haaratz article linked below:
“Contractors as sheriffs
According to accounts from commanders and fighters, the IDF was supposed to maintain a safe distance from Palestinian population areas and food distribution points. However, the actions of the forces on the ground do not align with the operational plans.
“Today, any private contractor working in Gaza with engineering equipment receives 5,000 [roughly $1,500] shekels for every house they demolish,” said a veteran fighter. “They’re making a fortune. From their perspective, any moment where they don’t demolish houses is a loss of money, and the forces have to secure their work. The contractors, who act like a kind of sheriff, demolish wherever they want along the entire front.”
As a result, the fighter added, the contractors’ demolition campaign brings them, along with their relatively small security details, close to distribution points or along the routes used by aid trucks.
In order [for the contractors] to protect themselves, a shooting incident breaks out, and people are killed,” he said. “These are areas where Palestinians are allowed to be – we’re the ones who moved closer and decided [they] endangered us. So, for a contractor to make another 5,000 shekels and take down a house, it’s deemed acceptable to kill people who are only looking for food.”
