Its hard to think of anything more heroic than going overseas to run a charity kitchen in a famine-stricken warzone.

Especially when knowing that the attacking force has no care for whether their strikes hit a foreign aid group or Palestinian civilians.

JDAM-equipped bombs hit a target with an error range of only 20 feet.

Israel has full air control, as well as numerous spy satellites to monitor Gaza in real time.

I believe the attacking force does care exactly where their strikes hit. This is deliberate.

I'm sure there was a Hamas tunnel in the soup or some shit. /s

They have apparently been dropping a lot of dumb bombs as well

very heartbreaking to think about it. These women and men are brave heros who were killed by coward terrorists. Another day another war crime by the Israeli government

The meat was probably Hamas so it was justified, an imaginary IDF dog said.

"Our intelligence showed a strong presence of Hummus in the building."

Singapore itself is an Israeli ally and has been trying to frame the whole war as just a case of racial and religious disagreement rather than colonialism. It is also participating in Operation Prosperity Garden (the US-backed operation to stop Ansar Allah from enforcing the red sea blockade on Israel). I feel for the charity workers. The government's hands however are stained with both Palestinian and Singaporean blood.

not surprising, Singapore is just a haven for the colonial elites of British Malaya

Their supporters still will say they have the most sophisticated weaponry and guidance systems. These attacks are purposeful.

They also have one of the most sophisticated communications technology. They had spies everywhere. 2,900 people attacked and they didn't have one spy to tell them a date...

According to The New York Times, Israeli officials had obtained detailed attack plans more than a year before the attack. The document described operational plans and targets, including the size and location of Israeli forces, and raised questions in Israel about how Hamas learned these details.

The Times reported, "Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision."

In July 2023, a member of the Israeli signals intelligence unit alerted her superiors that Hamas was conducting preparations for the assault, saying, "I utterly refute that the scenario is imaginary". An Israeli colonel ignored her concerns.

They allowed this to happen. They wanted a reason to attack and take what's left of Palestine.

A level of petty murderous spite I honestly didn't know anyone was capable of

If viewed like a 'total war', attacking every possible advantage the enemy may have whether civilian or military, it does makes sense from a historic military doctrine standpoint. The IDF believes they are immune to judgement and prosecution, and their goal is to destroy the Palestinian nation and people. They believe they are righteous, supported by God, so any attack that has a chance to weaken the Palestinian people is an attack they will take.

Overall though I believe these attacks have weakened support for Israel so much that they have a greater chance of being defeated than anytime I've seen before this conflict.

You see, the soup was Kkkkhammmas

They were killed after an air strike that targeted an inhabited house near a United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees school sheltering those displaced.

Ah I see they doubled down by hitting two definitely totally Hamas targets with one bomb.

Are you suggesting that they're running out of ammunition?

One can dream.

Zionists are the worst people

Wait I thought Kamala called for a cease fire. For 6 weeks. Then back to the murder spree. How disappointing ah well I suppose there's nothing America can do but watch in terror and send more munitions
