Geneva - The Israeli army has killed 94 university professors, along with hundreds of teachers and thousands of students, as part of its genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, ongoing since 7 October 2023, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said in a statement issued on Saturday
According to Euro-Med Monitor, the Israeli army has targeted academic, scientific, and intellectual figures in the Strip in deliberate and specific air raids on their homes without prior notice. Those targeted have been crushed to death beneath the rubble, along with members of their families and other displaced families.
If you want to ensure your enemy never learns that there’s a better way, you kill all the educated and academics. That leaves only the religious fanatics and corrupt politicians.
Obligatory reminder that when nazi Germany did this in occupied Poland, this in itself was called in terms which were later codified as genocide.
Not just destroying the present, but destroying their future.
There was never a real future with Hamas in power.
Said this about Viet Cong too? They attacked villages, took hostages, and used tunnels and guerilla warfare just the same. These are simply the most effective tactics for driving out an occupying force, and they wouldn’t be necessary if the colony wasn’t there in the first place.
If anything they’ve done a far better job at avoiding killing children than Israel even with inferior gear. The final death toll from the Oct 7 attack is now thought to be 695 Israeli “civilians” (mostly unarmed IDF conscripts), 373 armed IDF militants, 71 foreigners and 36 children. While Israel has killed 22,000 Palestinians, 2/3 of whom are women and children.
Jesus Fuck
We are being colonized and invaded by monsters. Resistance is a must and not futile.
Why does this article refer to its own newspaper in the third person?
You mean parts like this?

According to Euro-Med Monitor
Many newspapers does this, apparently it’s a old journalist standard being taught in their schools to avoid writing in first person unless they are writing opinion, to keep impersonal presentation image and differentiate (most likely for legal reasons) between personal stance and the one of entire newspaper - that is, when they write like that, is more official.
