Adding to the mountain of evidence that Israel is engaged in a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera on Thursday aired footage of what the news outlet reported was an Israeli drone targeting four Palestinians in Khan Younis last month.
Those killed by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the rubble of the southern Gaza city appear to be unarmed teenagers or young men. According to a translation of the coverage, they were not identified in the reporting.
I am also confused why there is footage focusing of people who were going to get killed.
This whole shitshow works in a way that Israel leadership benefits about the terrorist attacks created by Hamas, so they want to do everything to fuel the fire, there is no loss for them in these war crimes. Israel needs to be sanctioned, not only give slap to the wrist.
Okay, but where is this video from?
Drone that is used to guide the missile, and released by Israel
Apparently the Al Jazeera voiceover says it’s Israeli drone footage. Which makes sense, this is exactly how surveillance footage observing an attack looks like (just look at videos released by Russian and Ukrainian forces blasting each other).
Maybe people shared that around internally in one of the Israeli snuff channels and it got into the hands of the right person.
It’s not meant for the likes of you and me, it’s meant for other people brainwashed into thinking this is just “putting down rabid dogs to protect ourselves from them” and who will be proud of this.
You can see some of this in how many appreciate footage from Ukraine were they kill Russians: some people actual enjoy seeing it, even feeling rightous pride in it, even though it’s actual human beings dying in it and (IHMO) the well balanced humane take is that “thanks to Putin that is what has to be done, but that doesn’t mean on has to like it”.
So yeah, to the highly tribalist kind of people who have been brainwashed since they were children to see Palestinians as animals this kind of footage will elicit feelings of glee and pride in their “team” and that’s why it’s used as Propaganda.
