I had to wait two hours to report this to you.
I know that's a long time in our news cycle, but sometimes, it's important to wait with horrific stuff like that. We've replaced God with shock and sensationalism and we here at Not The Bee don't want to be part of that, especially when fake testimonies about murdered babies have been used to sway public opinion on war (see: The First Gulf War).
With that said, this is what is being said across every newsfeed at the current moment:

Palestinian Terrorists Slaughter 40 Israeli Babies, Including Through Decapitation: Report WWW.DAILYWIRE.COM
https://www.dailywire.com/news/palestinian-terrorists-slaughter-40-israeli-babies-including-through-decapitation-report
Israeli military forces reportedly discovered at least 40 babies that were brutally murdered by Palestinian terrorists in a kibbutz in southern Israel after they drove the terrorists out of the area.
Israeli-based i24 News correspondent Nicole Zedeck, reporting from Kfar Aza, said it was "hard to even explain exactly the mass casualties that happened right here."
Zedeck said she saw "baby cribs thrown to the side" and "strollers left behind" after upwards of 70 terrorists stormed the community on Saturday, slaughtering entire families and taking numerous hostages. In a kibbutz, babies are typically all housed together in one nursery.
A kibbutz is a communal farming model that's been around for a century or so. These rural villages work the land together and care for each other's children.
There were reportedly 40 babies and young children who were killed in the nursery. IDF Major General Itai Veruv called it a "massacre," noting how the children and parents were killed in their beds.
The Daily Wire story has a picture that was released by Israeli photographer Tomer Peretz showing a bloody child's bed. I won't how it here because it is too graphic. Nor will I show the full picture of infant car seats with blood over them
One one hand, there is a need for prudence here. It is easy to manipulate emotions in the fog of war, and some men will do anything for blood and treasure. I have no doubt that, like Ukraine, there are some in the Israeli military who would stoop to low measures - the same measures Hamas does with its sympathy theater - to try to compete with the terrorists' fundraising scheme that was perfected by Yasser Arafat back in the day.
On the other hand, you can't simply ignore these reports. They are going to sway people's emotions, whether you remain aloof or not. Put it into the light and investigate it.
Here's the on-the-ground reporting for you to do that yourself (no blood is shown here):

As you might expect is the norm across the uber-leftist mainstream media, an LA Times "journalist" immediately downplayed the report:
Here were a few replies:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bonchie @bonchieredstate Found the baby murder apologist.
The LA Times, everyone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stephen L. Miller @redsteeze · Follow LA Times Reporter - "Okay it's true they went from home to home, kidnapping elderly people, setting others on fire, executing entire families and dogs, but they did NOT behead babies. That is a vicious lie, sir"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Erick Erickson @EWErickson · Follow Independent reporters are now confirming the story. Let’s see what this guy does next. Remember, before this, he was retweeting a pro-Hamas propaganda video from a state operated media outlet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emily Zanotti 🦝 @emzanotti · Follow Several international news agencies have viewed the scenes and verified the killings.
But we get it. All grief has a denial phase. I can help: they also tortured, raped, and killed women and dragged their naked bodies through the streets, so this isn’t hard to believe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry Khachatrian @Harry1T6 · Follow Yes, very hard to believe that the same terrorists who went on a mass murder and rape spree at a music festival could ever harm babies and children
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just Mindy 🐊 @just_mindy · Follow The same reporters who accept every line from a family when their loved one is shot by police and offer zero scrutiny to the ensuing events before convincing whole communities cops are litrally executing innocent citizens in the street with no remorse suddenly sees both sides

Post See new posts Conversation memetic_sisyphus @memeticsisyphus These are such funny details to defend. There’s no doubt children have been killed and kidnapped per videos posted by Hamas, I’ve seen a video of them beheading a man. There’s a photo going around of a pile of dead children lit on fire. But he takes a stand of the idea children were beheaded let’s not besmirch the terrorists.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clown" is too honorable a title to describe this guy.
One more bit from The Daily Wire:
More than 900 Israelis have been killed and 2,600 more injured from the terrorist attacks. At least 11 Americans were killed, and it is believed that Americans are among those who were kidnapped and are being held hostage inside Gaza.
I assume the president of the United States will comment or do something about that soon?
Anyone? Hello?
Show the bloody pictures. Let the world see the horror.
“ I won’t how it here because it is too graphic. Nor will I show the full picture of infant car seats with blood over them”
Spread those photos far and wide you cowards.
MAybe a LEFTIST JEW THAT HATES AMERICA AND ISRAEL!
Israel should post the pictures so the world knows the truth and not lies from IDF soldiers.
All this is horrific. I screamed when Ben Shapiro showed video yesterday. My whole family came running in the room to see what was wrong, what would make ME scream like that.
But what makes me absolutely incredulous are the media MOCKINGBIRDS using this to call for doubling down in Ukraine for those Ukrainian F’ing NAZIS.
The islamists who killed those babies can’t go to hell unfortunately.
They are already direct representatives of satan. Pure demons.
Vaporizing all of them off the surface of the earth is the only thing that remains to be done.
Bkmrk
Enough have been posted. Yesterday I saw enough 1/2 naked old ladies who have been assaulted, raped and murdered (shot multiple times, and in a pool of blood)
The photo’s have been on the web. They are clearly NOT FAKE.
Of course he did. Being a Jew hater is a requirement to get a job in LibWorld.
Despite what Red Badger responded, you are right. The goal was to evoke a major response from Israel. However, you cast too small a net.
Once Israel attacks Gaza a lot of non-Arab nations will withdraw their “support” of Israel. People will soon forget the terrorist acts of Hamas once Israel actually starts killing Palestinians. The dead babies will soon be forgotten.
Take a good look, everyone. When the time come, you’ll know what to do.
It’s our lying eyes at fault again. Inconvenient truth
The terrorists are too nice to harm children I’m sure.
I don’t think he enjoys babies being slaughtered. But it is prudent to verify the truthfulness of the story and not just accept every story that comes along as the gospel truth, because this sounds an awful lot like Saddam claiming the US bombed baby milk factories.
What happened Saturday is now a documented fact.
This isn’t Kuwait, and there is more than enough evidence to show this happened less than 4 days ago.
Are you denying that the Israeli children were slaughtered?
bingo!
This is nothing we haven’t already seen on FR. We have a number claiming show the pictures of the dead babies or it didn’t happen and others (and sometimes the people who want to see the pictures) claiming that if they show the pictures than that such heartlessness to show such shows its fake.
I don’t need to see them. This has been going on since Old Testament times. “Woe unto thee that call evil good and good evil.”
We do not generally choose to kill individual babies.
However, bombs and artillery are indiscriminate killers, and there is lots of "collateral damage".
Though we may not want to see the images, the entire world needs to see them, yes. It will ingrain in our minds what barbaric people we are dealing with and will steel our collective resolve if we do not allow ourselves to be in a perpetual state of denial.
