Humanitarian agencies say women and menstruating people are also facing alarming rates of severe infections due to Israel’s blockade of supplies and water.
But Israel has a right to defend itself from the unborn threat. /s
And apparently also the undead threat – 16 cemeteries bulldozed, per CNN.
But did the fetuses condemn Hamas?!?!??1??!1?
Not any more so than the babies left to die in unpowered incubators after that gunpoint hospital evacuation.
The actual war on the unborn.
Born, unborn you name it.
Gaza 100 days on: Stop the War on Children
The killing of 10,000 children. Blasts leading to amputation—sometimes carried out without anaesthetics—and lifelong disabilities. Entire populations, including pregnant women and children, facing hunger, a quarter of them (576,600 people) at catastrophic levels, – that means at the risk of starvation and death. Warnings from the UN children’s agency that nearly 335,000 children under five in the Gaza are at “high risk of severe malnutrition and preventable death”. Thousands of children buried under the rubble and presumed dead.
The balance sheet of 100 days of war on Gaza is grim. It is a dark moment in history that we see on our television screens.
“If there is a hell on earth today, its name is northern Gaza,” in the words of one senior UN official.

IIRC there was something about women losing periods in concentration camps. Bodily functions are deeply tied to the mental state too. Even if properly fed and medically secure, I guess they’d still have a spike over fear alone.
concentration camps
very curious about that choice of words
Why? That’s what nazi camps are in my language.
And english wikipedia names the the same.
Seems like I don’t get you.
nazi camps
Even more interested in that choice of words.
Elaborate please. Where are these “Concentration Camps”
Because those are fucking heavy words and i expect you have some good proof to justify their use.
Show me the industrial killing of gazans in these supposed concentrarion Camps.
Technically concentration camps are not limited to the Nazi regime and are do not nessisarily require actively killing the people inside to fit the definition. The internment of Japanese civilians by the US and Canadian governments in WWII fit the definition of a concentration camp. The North Koreans have political prison camps which also fit the description. The notes of periods stopping in the face of extreme stress an malnutrition have been noted at all of these camps by the doctors who have kept records.
You also made quite the logic leap from someone mentioning menstruation in Concentration camps to assuming they meant a literal camp in Gaza. Gaza isn’t a concentration camp… Though the Israeli government has actively throttled supplies to the citizens of the region (including international relief) who cannot immigrate because the neighbouring countries fear Israeli retaliation so you do have a bunch of people who cannot freely move in increasingly unsanitary conditions without access to medical supplies, clean water or fuel to produce clean water and increasing food insecurity in the region has meant that the conditions are primed for a large number of civilians to die… So there are fairly decent parallels in regards to living conditions but the disqualifying difference being largely based around formalized imprisonment.
Not a concentration camp by strict definition and not an “industrial” killing zone like Auschwitz but Auschwitz was very much not the norm for a concentration camp even the ones under Nazi rule so using that as your rubric of “what is a concentration camp” is inherently flawed. Concentration camps are unethical even when they don’t exist to slowly and steadily liquidate their populations.
The commonality stated here is the function of the body due to disease and malnutrition. Demanding proof of one very specific presentation of genocide out of a wide range of possible presentations of active genocide seems to be very mich missing the point.
- He was to name them nazi camps. No need to talk about that
- The name concentration Camp was used specifically that way to imply that, let’s not kid ourselfes. There was no Logic Leap. Especially not since i sepcifically asked him what he meant by concentration camp and he literally confirmed it 2 comments further up.
I don’t think you’ve written this Comment in good Faith and as such will stop bothering here. I wish you a very nice Day
Ah, now I get you.
I don’t equate these two situations. I wanted to point at the link between mental distress and physical health that was observed in these camps, IIRC I’ve read about it in David Frankle’s memoir\self-help book first - and he is a survivor of one, that’s why I refered to them. And these women are put into critical insecurity and distress too.
By now more than 23k were reported dead, or ≈1% of pre-October estimated population. Not an industrial scale of killing per se, but still a catastrophe. With how many buildings were leveled to the ground (33%) and how many people therefore were displaced, it sure is. Intensity of IDF bombing is pretty much systemic and overly agressive. Would you argue with that?
I think you are overreacting.
I’ve heard Gaza was called the-camp-in-the-open-air before October, and that wasn’t true. It was occupation and segregation, and mass murder wasn’t in the menu. Now it’s hard to say, hearing all this warmongering and dehumanization. Is it assymetric warfare with a side of suspected warcrimes? A continuous act of terror? A genocide? I don’t know. But it seems like Israel hardly cares about palestinians anymore, doesn’t want them here and this shelling, military maneuvres are about making it’s unlivable here so they’d leave. I don’t think civilian\Hamas ratio was even 10:1. Not really a C-T operation.
They were all soon to be born Hamas!!! /s
do we count death by high explosive as miscarriage ?
Obliterating all the hospitals, laying siege to deny refugees food and water and heat, and using snipers to assassinate medics might also be playing a role in the miscarriage rate.
Ackmuravatupally a medic or more precisely here a disaster rescue specialist would not be the one to accompany women during pregnancy.
However high stress due to the fact that the Givati Brigade and an Al-Qassam Brigade are using your backyard as their arena for the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny have a tremendous impact
Miscarriage in the US is a crime. Israel committing war crimes.
That’s Israel’s goal. 🤷
Justice being chief among them.
“…but it isn’t genocide.”
Gaza gonna be gone permanently before this is over.
Israeli soldiers raise flag and sing anthem on Gaza beach
Curiously, Israelis are allowed to say “From the River to the Sea”

You know when you troll like that you think you’re being funny but all you’re doing is making your entire country look bad to the rest of us.
You should consider yourself a representative of your country to the rest of the world. The more american trolls we encounter the less we think of your country.
