Gaza children are being killed by exploding toys — a horror Israel has been perfecting for over 30 years now and counting

Can we stop supporting the terrorists please.
When this is the standard for journalism that is promoted by the mods here then it’s time leave this one.
Just in time for the holidays.
Terrorist scum. Through and through.
That is positively fucked up
Israel needs to go.
Are we sure it isn’t because Toyman relocated from Metropolis?
Hmm, the state that has committed genocide for the last year, deliberately targeted children, journalists and aid workers has enacted a novel way to kill more children… sounds about right. But hey, keep up the solid work checking journalistic standards of ONLY articles that shine light on Israeli terrorism.
Hmm, the state that has committed genocide for the last
year80 years
It’s not even that novel. They’ve been doing it since 1997.
Goes back at least as far as the American-Vietnam war.
Yeah you’re probably not going to see this story on CNN, BBC, NYT et al. for some time (if ever) because all the big news corps are doing their best to keep things like this as quiet as possible. Just compare the difference in quantity and detail of stories about the released captives from each side as an example.
It’s hard to get quality photo and video evidence of anything in Gaza when Israel has blocked any outside journalists from entering and continues to target and kill local journalists.
You’re right that this isn’t high quality journalism, but we may not get to see this otherwise. There’s no need to fabricate the atrocities committed by Israel because the reality is bad enough. I don’t like the amount of effort I have to go to to gather information to make up my mind about a story, but that’s exactly what Israel and its backers want. There probably are better-written articles in other languages available, but I don’t think anything that isn’t in English can be posted here.
That said, there are several other sources that quote the Director General of Gaza’s Health Ministry as saying they have found bombs disguised as toys:

The first sane comment I’ve read on this thread.
Israel is a terrorist state. They are committing genocide against the Semitic Palestinian people in the country of Palestine.
Which has literally nothing to do with this article being unprofessional.
Do you deny the genocide in Gaza?
Devils advocate here. Shady journalism is shady regardless of what side of our bias it lands on.
perhaps some more contex on why they may have been thought to be toys (but from Lebanon not Gaza)

What is described here is no less despicable though
Right in the OP:

Lemmy: No.
I’ve given up on journalism digging deep and so much as pretending to be neutral. Anyway, not sure I’d count this as journalism. It’s a thinly covered editorial.
We got one reported incident and claims of systemic abuse. If they have all this and not one bit of backup?
Field evidence and testimonies from doctors, paramedics, and eyewitnesses
They did bring evidence for Israel pulling this in Lebanon 30 years ago, and it’s not difficult to believe, but can a brother get a link or three?
OTOH, how much evidence can we expect from a genocidal regime that systemically kills journalists? For all we know there are 500 such incidents as of today.
It’s not about me having a problem to call Israel a terror state, but a piece of text that pretends to be or is this least presented as a journalistic piece obviously not even trying to be neutral at all.
If someone tell you there exists a ring of sadists torturing kids to drink their blood, are we expected to refute the claims?
I know I have not posted my criticism in the most adequate form, but come on, don’t you have any demand in journalistic standards?
I could claim the IDF is eating babies alive and people would still up vote it.
This is not the first time Israel was caught doing this. I has been going on for dacades.
It’s not hard to believe, not in the slightest. OP’s merely saying this is thin sauce (so far) and the article’s only further evidence, outside of this one incident, is the link you posted.
But, as I commented just now, how much evidence is getting out when the genocide machine includes journalists?
I have never seen a religious group try so hard to get into their own hell.
you don’t have to be good to go to heaven in their religion, just jewish or really really dedicated to being jewish. also, according to the religious texts, israel is to be bestowed upon the jews by god and not man, so the orthodox jews are AGAINST israel
That concept is highly unsettled in their religion.
Zionists aren’t very religious, they ise and abuse religion to scare other with a supposed “anti-semitism” when in reality they are the biggest anti-semits, as they will actively persecute any jew that dares criticise them.

I think this is might be propaganda. Research the sources.
