Gaza today
Mariam Dagga, a visual freelance journalist for The Associated Press, chronicled the stream of wounded and dead that every day flowed into southern Gaza’s main hospital, where she was often based. She followed doctors as they struggled to save starving children.
Dagga was killed Monday by Israeli strikes on Nasser Hospital, according to health officials. A collage of her photos depicting the tragedy of Gaza were picked by AP editors and published after she was killed. She was one of five journalists – including one from Reuters – killed during the bombing of the hospital where 20 doctors and patients were killed. Famine has been declared in the beleaguered territory.For more on Mariam Dagga, click here.
Gaza before the establishment of the State of Israel (pre-1948)

You fail to acknowledge that the destruction was brought about as a result of the October 7, 2023 attack on Israeli civilians by Hamas. You're an antisemite, Juan.
Hamas initiated this conflict with the support of the Iranian regime. Responsibility for the situation lies primarily with Hamas and Iran. It is disheartening to observe that the global community often positions itself against Israel, which is merely acting in self-defense. The tragic loss of journalists raises questions about their presence in the region, while the suffering of children highlights the harsh realities of warfare. As of now, not all hostages have been released, and Hamas continues its military actions. This conflict might have reached a resolution much earlier had Hamas and the Palestinian factions chosen to cease hostilities.
Exactly. An antisemite midget.
Of course the world will forget what Israil has done. We have already forgotten what Hitler and the Nazis did and have begun electing fascists to national offices including the Presidency.
The date to remember is 1948, not Oct. 7. That is the year Israel exiled Palestinians from their homeland and the State of Israel was created. That is the year the occupation began. That year people's rights and land were stolen. They were forced into the Gaza Strip where they remain to this day under apartheid conditions. The US has been complicit from the start.
Supporting Israel with billions of taxpayer money and military equipment.
All people have a right, an obligation, to resist and repel aggressors.
Juan never wants to talk about the hostages. I hope Israel continues to flatten Gaza. It will be easier for president trump to build a golf course there.
Israel making us forget about the Holocaust.
Fact.
Meh. You're not looking at the big picture, aside from the fact these same terror-loving Palestinians were dancing and cheering in the street for the Oct 7th massacre, now experiencing the most FAFO predictable aftermath ever. Yet still expecting pity ---when any country dealing with a terror attack of that magnitude would be reacting far more harshly than Israel is now. To put in perspective, after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor in the 40's, we dropped two nuclear bombs on them in response.
However, that's a small scale view. Iran is Russia's mideast proxy, and Oct 7th could not have simply 'just happened' without Russia's knowledge and involvement. Dare I wonder, direction and support. Putin wants Ukrainian land, and amplifies the Hamas stuff whenever he feels like he's losing in Ukraine. Did Russia face a big setback in Ukraine this week? Cue the miserable tortured hostage video release by Hamas, and a new round of 'protests'. Putin is clearly angling for a deal: the US gives Russia Ukraine, in exchange the hostages are magically released by Hamas, Trump gets his gold-plated Riviera waterfront developments on Gaza beach. Your proxy for my proxy, tit for tat. Where it all blew up is when Trump sent the order to destroy Iran's nukes, when if you noticed, all of a sudden the Epstein stuff "mysteriously" rose to the forefront. Clever social media tactics, like 'hackers' taking over the Sesame Street Elmo account to publicize Epstein and denigrate Israel, etc. It's been said Putin has his own 'nuke button' of video evidence of Trump molesting kids on Epstein island, and the Israelis have it too. That footage is, presumably, the underlying reason for the stalemate on Israel/ Ukraine.
Tin foil hat conspiracy theory? Maybe. As for the Gazans themselves, they continue to be their own worst enemy. Their big hero Yassir Arafat ran off with billions in international goodwill funds meant to radically improve the lives of the average Palestinian. Esconced into hidden Swiss banks (one of his wives then claimed his account with billions of stolen Palestinian funds was hers after he died, a story worth looking into). When you see Palestinians on TV living in shacks, it's because Arafat stole the money that could have paid for a house and education for every single family there. This is a story that repeats unfortunately. The more Gazans visibly suffer, the better it is for international fundraising and the faster the Hamas and PA terrorists' secret Swiss bank accounts go cha-ching. Like a cartel, but instead of selling drugs, they traffic in selling human misery for views and clicks. In the most cloying and shamelessly deceptive ways, masterful propaganda, like getting photos of an emaciated kid with advanced terminal cancer published by international media under the headline he was "starving to death" because of, you guessed it, big bad Israel. Misappropriating funds meant to improve Palestinian lives to build rat hole tunnels, stealing food to resell at massively hiked prices to the already cash-strapped Palestinians. Until the Palestinians themselves cast these leeches out, they will continue to be put in harm's way for the financial benefit of a few terrorists, and Russia's geopolitical interests. But that's just my take... willing to hear alternative opinions
