Wait, you didn't hear? Apparently no one has the power to stop them. Not a single nation. Not a single leader. Not a one with the power, influence, or strength.

Truly reprehensible.

An entire ethnic group is systematically being wiped out and out their land taken.

I wish there was an "anti-rapture" where the worst were taken all at once to forever live in hell, leaving us poor miserable souls to be "left behind" to suffer a life of peace and decency toward humankind.

From my experience with the types of folks that believe that is going to happen, that would just be the regular rapture.

“Here in Deir al-Balah, it’s like an apocalypse. There is no room for you to pitch a tent; you have to set it up near the coast… You have to protect your children from insects, from the heat, and there is no clean water, no toilets, all while the bombing never stops. You feel like you are subhuman here.”

  • Mohammed, a 42-year-old father of three, speaking in June 2024 about his experience of displacement from Rafah to Deir al-Balah governorate

Here is the report. If I had to recommend a chapter it would probably be page 107

6.1.1 direct attacks on civilians or indiscriminate attacks

It has 15 investigations from Amesty International. Primarily large scale Israeli against Palestinian civilians where, Amnesty confirms there were no military targets nearby
