At first it felt like the IDF was speedrunning the war on terror. They had their Abu-graibs on pretty much the first day. Now it’s clear that this always was a campaign of hate from the very beginning. Their purpose in Gaza is to terrorize the civilian population.
Nobody was surprised when the Russians immediately started torturing and murdering civilians in Ukraine. But we are shocked that the IDF behave exactly the same way because – quite frankly – we were lied to about the nature of the Israeli state.
Most people who were keeping up with the conflict knew this would happen. Glad to see more people waking up, but the current state of Gaza isn’t in any way surprising.

Make that remove/kill/starve.
One of my earliest memories is watching Israel bomb Gaza in the 90’s. We shouldn’t be that shocked.
