This is by far the most damning evidence that it absolutely did not happen. If those photos existed they would be sent to every news organization on the planet in seconds

“Disrespectful of the dead to comment on the condition of a corpse”

Oh you mean like your original claim that they were decapitated?

I adamantly think 24 hour news channels should be shut down and banned everywhere in the world. This happens all the fucking time. I've been saying to every idiot that watches any 24 hour news channel that it takes time and work to verify claims. That's what journalism is. 24 hour news channels simply cannot do it in real time. The only imaginable reason you would want a channel that broadcasts news 24 hours a day is so you can have a place to get information about major events in real time, and that is exactly when they will fuck up the most and report a bunch of emotionally charged lies in their fancy official looking news rooms, and it always happens.

A journalist from Israeli broadcaster i24News was the first to say that babies had been killed, saying there were 40.

i24 news is a 24 hour news channel in Israel.

[Challenging: Success] — In June of 1982, the Israeli Defense Forces marched into Lebanon in the hopes of forcing Palestine Liberation Organization members out of the area. The Lebanese Forces, an umbrella party made up of all of the right-wing militias in Lebanon, were engaging in a civil war with the Lebanese government, and agreed to partner up with the IDF. On September 16th of that same year, the Lebanese Forces armed themselves and walked into the neighborhood of Sabra, and then into the adjacent Shatila refugee camp. The IDF encircled the area, preventing the Palestinian and Shiite Lebanese civilians from escaping.

— Don't ignore that feeling in the bottom of your stomach. Hearing this is going to hurt you. Make sure you're ready.

::: spoiler [Endurance 12] Listen to the rest of the story. — An estimated 3,500 civilians were killed in the ensuing massacre. Janet Lee Stevens, an American journalist present in the area, wrote that she saw "...dead women in their houses with their skirts up to their waists and their legs spread apart; dozens of young men shot after being lined up against an alley wall; children with their throats slit, a pregnant woman with her stomach chopped open, her eyes still wide open, her blackened face silently screaming in horror; countless babies and toddlers who had been stabbed or ripped apart and who had been thrown into garbage piles."

— What happened after the massacre?

— Nothing. The UN held a vote to condemn it, which passed. Representatives and speakers for the United States, Canada, Singapore, and Ireland complained that it was unfair to call the actions of the IDF and Lebanese Forces a "genocide". Elie Hobeika, the Lebanese Forces leader accused of ordering the civilians to be killed, was later assassinated by an Israeli car bomb before he could testify as to who was responsible for what.

— There's nothing Israel can accuse Hamas of that they haven't already done themselves.

Friends got mad at me for doubting this story...

There's an entire history of genocidal nations using the "killing babies" claim to justify their genocide. You can see woodcuttings of this claim ffs.

"Why would they lie about it?"

Because they're a fucking ethnostate that's doing genocide. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Saddam's People Shredder 2.0

The instant I heard this one, I just immediately thought of the Iraq War testimony that somebody's relative made up to an American committee about how Iraqis were murdering babies in incubators.

Especially with no pictures...in this day and age? There's pictures of everything now archived on the net, and there's zero chance a nation as committed to online propaganda as Israel wouldn't throw them (or SOMETHING) into an article at a moment's notice if they were real. They have apps specifically designed for generating propaganda on social media.

But yeah sure, 1 soldier saying 'they killed babies' is definitely reliable testimony, we all know soldiers, and IDF soldiers especially, never lie.

It won't investigate its claim...

Propagandist army pinkie swears that their non-investigation into their use of clear use of propaganda didn't discover any actual propaganda.

Testimony alone is not good enough.

Eye witness accounts are very often fabricated, especially in a fucking war.

Evidence, evidence, evidence is needed. If people refuse too present evidence, none exists.

Does anyone had a list of all the times the IDF had lied about shit like this? Like when they shelled the UN building in Gaza back in 2009 because it was apparently full of combatants that was easily disproven

reports coming in that Palestinians have gained possession of the Loc-Nar and plan to annihilate the universe

source: this was revealed to me in a dream

IDF won't back up its claim that they didn't assassinate Shireen Abu Akleh either. Wonder why.

Refusing to investigate a supposed massacre to own da hamas

It's true. They took the babies out of incubators. I hear some of them even annihilated babies with weapons of mass destruction.

This story doesn't work simply because there wasn't time. It's a bit of an upsetting thought, but consider how long it would take to gather and behead 40 babies even in an area you know. Hell, even with the parents' consent. For this to have happened requires the parents bringing their babies like at some kind of vaccination drive and lining them up.

Fucking Palestinians drank their blood in a sick Muslim ritual too!

Totally real and has no historical precedent as a propaganda story!

"take it from us, professional baby killers"
