This needs to be said even though some don't want to hear it. Israel destroyed one of the last remaining functioning hospitals in Gaza. Where will the wounded go? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXos3w9fMFMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlbyb9KdMEo

@LuvGreenTea2019 The piece says it was evacuated and then raided or searched. Doctors and patients are still seen in the video.You say it was "destroyed."My grade ten english teacher taught me that, if you're overly dogmatic, you tend to lose people in your argument.Arguably, the biggest problem in this war is that the media never states that certain info and images haven't been verified by them as they are forced to rely only on Hamas info/images.

@Klimsu As to hospitals and health care, it's a fact that Israel has systematically destroyed the health care system in Gaza. The humanitarian group, Doctors Without Borders, said this in November before the recent attack on the Kamal Adwan Hospital. "As of November 5, a mere 17 of Gaza’s 36 hospitals remain functional, and only partially so, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). Eleven field hospitals (five fully functioning and six partially functioning) are operating, but they are meant to be a support measure and cannot replace the health system that has been destroyed. Only 36 percent of primary health centers are functioning, and 130 ambulances have been damaged." At present, there are more than 100,000 wounded people in Gaza, of whom OCHA estimates 14,000 require medical evacuation for specialized care unavailable in Gaza. https://www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/how-year-war-has-devastated-gazas-civilian-infrastructure#:~:text=Only%2036%20percent%20of%20primary,specialized%20care%20unavailable%20in%20Gaza.Read the letter from 99 American physicians, surgeons, nurse practitioners, nurses, and midwives who have volunteered in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023. Combined, they spent 254 weeks volunteering in Gaza’s hospitals and clinics. There is no reason for them to lie."Israel has destroyed more than half of Gaza’s healthcare resources and has killed nearly one thousand Palestinian healthcare workers, more than one out of every 20 healthcare workers in Gaza. At the same time healthcare needs have increased massively from the lethal combination of military violence, malnutrition, disease, and displacement.”"Virtually every child under the age of five whom we encountered, both inside and outside of the hospital, had both a cough and watery diarrhea. We found cases of jaundice (indicating hepatitis A infection under such conditions) in nearly every room of the hospitals in which we served, and in many of our healthcare colleagues in Gaza. An astonishingly high percentage of our surgical incisions became infected from the combination of malnutrition, impossible operating conditions, lack of basic sanitation supplies such as soap, and lack of surgical supplies and medications, including antibiotics.""Malnutrition led to widespread spontaneous abortions, underweight newborns, and an inability of new mothers to breastfeed. This left their newborns at high risk of death given the lack of access to potable water anywhere in Gaza. Many of those infants died. In Gaza we watched malnourished mothers feed their underweight newborns infant formula made with poisonous water. We can never forget that the world abandoned these innocent women and babies.”"Children are universally considered innocents in armed conflict. However, every single signatory to this letter saw children in Gaza who suffered violence that must have been deliberately directed at them. Specifically, every one of us who worked in an emergency, intensive care, or surgical setting treated pre-teen children who were shot in the head or chest on a regular or even a daily basis. It is impossible that such widespread shooting of young children throughout Gaza, sustained over the course of an entire year is accidental or unknown to the highest Israeli civilian and military authorities.”"Women underwent vaginal deliveries and even C-sections without anesthesia and were given nothing but Tylenol afterwards because no other pain medications were available.”https://www.gazahealthcareletters.org/usa-letter-oct-2-2024

@LuvGreenTea2019 I think you provided this letter before, and I already commented some time ago. I said something like it's compelling but where's the food, medicine and other necessities of life provided by Israel going? Starts with an H.You lost me on the first post. "Children are universally considered innocents in armed conflict." Really? Aren't they innocent all the time? These platitudes aren't helping make the argument.Yes, the type of warfare that Israeli has been forced to engage in is called urban, destruction warfare. But still they exercise proportionality, hold back (attrition,) give warning, conduct evacuations.

@Klimsu "Yes, the type of warfare that Israeli has been forced to engage in is called urban, destruction warfare. "So, it's called "urban, destruction warfare". The ICC (International Criminal Court) calls it crimes against humanity and war crimes. Millions of people around the world just call it genocide. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/11/israel-opt-netanyahu-gallant-and-al-masri-must-face-justice-at-the-icc-for-charges-of-war-crimes-and-crimes-against-humanity/https://www.un.org/unispal/document/icc-arrest-warrant-netanyahu-21nov24/https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/11/1157406

@LuvGreenTea2019 Millions of people? Haha! Sure, bring 'em around! ICC doesn't have jurisdiction and didn't not allow Israel to conduct their own investigation. The facts before that court are seriously in dispute.Genocide, apartheid, proportionality and so on - that's called "lawfare" - legal terms being to bandied about in an attempt to sway international opinion, which the media picks up and unthinkingly reports to those millions of people you referenced earlier!
