UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Saturday he is "dismayed" by civilian casualties in Gaza and "deeply disturbed" by Israel's strike on a building containing international media outlets, AFP reports.

The comments came after 10 members of a family were reportedly killed in an Israeli air strike in Gaza, and another air strike demolished the 13-floor Gaza building housing Al Jazeera and The Associated Press news agency.

Of course he is.

The United Nations awaits their Antichrist. Oh they’ll call him “messiah” and such.

Yes. Only six civilian casualties. Can’t they do better than that!

He was dismayed that his rockets have not been more effective. The UN paid a lot of money for those rockets, so they expected a little more bang for their buck.

What dismay me is that the IAF is not using FAEs to follow up their tunnel busting penetrators. Who knows, may the are...Blow the Hamas rats all to Hell

The Jews are obligated to absorb the rockets and should build better shelters. Hamas mass attacks over the border should be likewise absorbed without shooting back. Is that it?

How many thousands of terrorist missiles would it take for
their to be an understanding that the terrorists are trying
to kill the Jews.

When this happened to London, I don’t remember people saying
the Brits should just hide and not defend themselves.

But when its the Jews, well, they must live up to the Jewish
stereotype of the gentle tailor, studious doctor, peaceful
accountant.

This time Israel, don’t listen to those who like when Jews
go peacefully into the gas chambers. Fight the terrorists
and win.

Israel gave away Gaza which Egypt traded to them for the Sinai. Its Hamas who occupies Gaza and they are the aggressor. If they don’t send missiles to Israel then Israel won’t have reason to protect its Jews

No. That’s not enough. The Jews should just leave. Palestine belongs to the Palestinians. /s

Gutteres should be dismayed instead that Hamas would place their intelligence unit in a building occupied by the media hostages, not because the building was destroyed. It looks like Israel has figured out they will be criticized no matter what they do, so they might as well do whatever it takes to destroy their warring enemies.

It should be pointed out that of the over 1000 rockets launched by Hamas, a portion of them fell back on its territory killing ‘civilians’.

He is worried that UN installations are next, they also are known to harbor the terrorist.

Wonder if he was concerned and dismayed by the rockets fired into Israel?

The Turks slaughtering the Kurds? Not a word. Just par for the course and to be expected.

But JEWS FIRING MISSILES (when under attack)??? Sacre bleu. Jews aren’t supposed to do that! What’s the world coming to?

This calls for worldwide demonstrations - in Paris, London, Berlin, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York - plus immediate condemnation by the UN Secretary General!

“The Secretary-General is dismayed by the increasing number of civilian casualties, including the death of ten members of the same family, including children, as a result of an Israeli airstrike last night in the al-Shati camp in Gaza, purportedly aimed at a Hamas leader,”

Well, at least he didn’t say “innocent civilians”.

And by the way, what was the purpose of these civilians being around the leader-dude when the leaders know they’re being targeted?
