    Haaretz article

    At some point, when the convoy was driving along the approved route, the war room of the unit responsible for security of the route ordered the drone operators to attack one of the cars with a missile.

    Some of the passengers were seen leaving the car after it was hit and switching to one of the other two cars. They continued to drive and even notified the people responsible that they were attacked, but, seconds later, another missile hit their car.

    The third car in the convoy approached, and the passengers began to transfer to it the wounded who had survived the second strike – in order to get them out of danger. But then a third missile struck them. All seven World Central Kitchen volunteers were killed in the strike.

    So it’s basically like a week ago when the IDF bombed those four guys walking on the sand road and kept bombing the guys limping away. The IDF were notified about these World Food Kitchen envoys in advance and decided to blow them up midway because they started hallucinating Hamas warriors in the car.

      hallucinating Hamas warriors in the car

      Don’t make it that easy. Don’t lump this in with other stuff. They knew exactly what those great people were doing there and why. They’re intentionally starving Gaza, and they’ll murder the most giving and charitable westerners to accomplish their genocide.

      The US has many legitimate reasons to support Israel. This should be the line where we put a stop to it.

        They knew that about those other people as well. This is no different from all the other times israel has massacred civilians and aid workers. The only difference is optically because it’s so impossibly obvious that israel is intentionally targeting civilians this time that even israel can’t lie about it. Every possible form of plausible deniability has been destroyed.

        The US has many legitimate reasons to support Israel.

        Going to disagree with that one.
