Israel bombs 6th UN-run school in Gaza in 10 days, kills dozens
Israel attacks al-Razi school in Nuseirat as well as the ‘safe-zone in al-Mawasi, killing at least 42 Palestinians.
Israel’s military has bombed another United Nations-run school as well as an Israeli-designed “safe-zone” in the Gaza Strip, killing at least 42 Palestinians and wounding dozens of others, according to Palestinian officials.
The Israeli attacks on Tuesday hit the UN’s al-Razi school in the central Nuseirat refugee camp and a main street lined with market stalls in the southern al-Mawasi area, where thousands of displaced Palestinians had sought shelter.
You're viewing a single thread.
There is no way they hit them purposefully. Education is Israels best weapon against the Hamas leadership.
So, what you're saying is that the IDF is so incompetent that they keep hitting designated safe zones by mistake? That's what you're going with?
Look, I'm not saying they hit that school (or the previous 5) by mistake, but how can they know that a building called school, managed by the UN, full of children seated in classrooms with teachers teaching stuff to said children, in a zone designated by Israel as a safe zone is actually a school?
They couldn't know! Nobody could!
None of those schools are active. They're currently shelters for families.
Well that makes it alright then! Nobody could possibly object to families sheltering in a so-called safe zone being killed by the very people who designated it as such and told them to go there!
That's just totally normal existential self defense behavior! 🤦
never said it was justified, I'm just correcting information.
Not to dogpile on you but, if that is actually your stance, I'd go and amend your top statement. Too many bad actors divert the topic by 'quibbling' about minor inaccuracies in a statement.
And I would say "a school" vs a "a school building currently hosting refugee families" is a very minor component of the larger story that "a nation has been bombing those civilian buildings full of non-combatants in established safe zones".
so they are destroying both the future and the families, got it
There is no way they hit them purposefully.
Are you saying they missed? 6 times in 10 days?
So delusional
bruh!
Maybe this is a new concept for you but the Israeli right and Hamas are two sides of the same coin. They created each other and probably don’t exist without the other.
Hamas didn't create Zionism lol
Not Zionism writ large. Netanyahu’s Likud. https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/
Unfortunately, education in Gaza has been directly linked to the incitement of terrorism. In Gaza the children read textbooks in school containing hateful, antisemitic messaging along with encouraging martyrdom and jihad.

Ah, well, better do genocide then.
Do you really think trolling is appropriate for such a serious topic?
I don't think anybody here wants death and destruction.
Just wondering why you have justified the bombings of children because… checks notes the UN run schools -might- have been teaching history to generate hate.
Please read the comment you replied to. "bombings of children" would be covered by "death and destruction", i.e things I (and hopefully you) don't want happening.

According to the IDF and far right Knesset members and organizations beholden to them. AKA the least reliable sources regarding anything even REMOTELY connected to Palestine.
Their source is an Israeli organization, lol. There are so many parallels between Israel's theft of Palestine and the Europeans' theft of North America, "their education/religion/culture is terrorism" is just another one on the list.
If you're unhappy with this particular link, just search yourself. There are condemnations from several institutions (amongst them the EU comission). This is pretty much common knowledge for those who are familiar with the situation.
I've seen the claim many times before and it's been thoroughly debunked as disinformation again and again.

Oh? Well in that case please go ahead! I've yet to see such a "thorough debunking". Don't worry, I'll be patient. Go ahead and make me pleasantly surprised.
Edit: Been a few hours at this point, and it seems like @[email protected] wasn't able to "thoroughly debunk" my statement, instead leaving behind a downvote. I'll open up the call to anyone who finds this comment in the future. Prove me wrong!
In this instance I'd love to be wrong, it'd be a good thing if Palestinian schools aren't brain washing kids with hateful propaganda.
Go ahead and make me pleasantly surprised.
Ah, the honeyed words of the local Sealion.
The issue is why the school materials are radicalized in the first place.
If Israel, you know, would treat the Palestinians like human beings instead of blockading them from all aid and support for 30 years, maybe they wouldn't face a radicalization threat.
Two wrongs don't make a right. I was highlighting to the OP why education (in this instance) isn't actually reducing bigotry and hate like it would in many other cases, but instead making the problem worse.
Besides, the issue with problematic materials in teaching is hardly limited to Gaza.
Couldn't you just change the curriculum then; when you have full military control anyways? Bombing the schools seems a slight overreaction to me.
