MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire Suggests Israel's Strike On Gaza Aid Workers Was Intentional
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/03/2024 8:20:32 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

"This 'mistake' hit comes a day after the precision strike that killed the Iranian general in Syria. It's hard to reconcile those two things."

That was Jonathan Lemire on today's Morning Joe. In saying that it's hard to "reconcile" Israel's "mistake" hit on the World Central Kitchen aid workers with the "precision" hit on the Iranian general, Lemire is hinting strongly this wasn't a mistake at all, but rather, an intentional act by Israel.

Intentional killing of innocent people would only make the IDF as culpable as Hamas, who are still holding hostages. Why are they exempt from criticism?

I wonder just how “innocent” those “aid workers” really were?

A NGO (UN affiliated?) agency was hit?

Directly beneath UNRWA’s Gaza headquarters, IDF uncovers top secret Hamas data center (Feb 10, 2024)
https://www.timesofisrael.com/directly-beneath-unrwas-gaza-headquarters-idf-uncovers-top-secret-hamas-data-center

UNRWA did not immediately respond to requests for comment. In a tweet following the publication, the agency’s head Philippe Lazzarini denied any knowledge of the Hamas data center.

UNRWA is the largest agency of the United Nations, employing over 30,000 staff, 99% of which are locally recruited Palestinians.

The Jew Hatred is strong with this one.

The World is rife with it.

We still don’t know what happened, for certain. Yet it’s pile-on time.

Pot calling kettle black here. They slander the IDF but give Hamas a pass on killing hundreds of innocent Israelis over the years.

Israel is not exempt from criticism. IN fact, they get it 24x7 from the whole world, including the US Administration. Do you mean extra criticism, like calling them Nazis or such? Already being done on an hourly basis. Israel needs to ignore the criticism, accept their mistakes, and win the war against Iran and its surrogates, and quit listening to the world. Trust in God and listen to His words.

so was our crushing to death 5 P’s in a Gaza aid drop also intentional? https://www.timesofisrael.com/five-palestinians-killed-in-gaza-after-aid-airdrop-malfunctions/

Awaiting follow-up to see if those responsible will be held to account in a meaningful way. Then we’ll know what to believe.

Wars kill innocent people frequently.

Civilians in Hawaii
Random bombing of London by Hitler.
Stalin in Poland.
The bombing of Dresden

Using a little honesty here, no war involves only the combatants, civilians always get hurt. The difference between a ‘war crime’ and a ‘war mistake’ is INTENT.

Understand the above I ask basic question.
1. What was the INTENT of the Palestinian people and the elected government, HAMAS, when it declared war on Israel on Oct. 7th, and who did they Target?
2. If wars end in Civilian deaths, Why did HAMAS start the war?

In the photos are the server stacks, as well as lighting, power panels and notably a considerable number of air conditioner air handler units which have coolant circulation from somewhere else (above ground, and like one of the much copied Mitsubishi Ductless HVAC systems. Could be chi-com Haier brand copies)— point being where are the outside heat exchange units/blowers as they have to be somewhere with unimpeded airflow.

The main point making here is— UNWRA had to have know this- because someone was paying the electrical bill for these items.. and the electricity is supplied by iirc.. Israeli power companies. Don’t think that GAZA has it’s own Hamas run power company. So that is how Israel knows that UNRWA knew this was there. Cause who would bomb UNWRA HQ? What a joke the UN is and massively corrupt.

That was a US C-17. And some of the parachutes didn’t open. A reason why where supplies are dropped are recommended not to have people standing or sitting under them. So this is on the US, not Israel. More State Dept. incompetents.

Not intentional. Parachutes do fail to open, esp cargo chutes.

i know it’s not on Israel - stuff happens in war and war zones. aid workers take on the risks implicitly. the point is ‘stuff happened’ to us, with our good intentions, and there was no fingerpointing and no imputing bad intentions to us - really i didn’t even see it reported. to me to say that the IDF would intentionally hit aid workers is ludicrous.

That must mean the Hamas hit on the Gaza hospital that killed 500 was also intentional.
