British surgeon in Gaza speaks out as Israel offensive deepens in Rafah
British surgeon Dr Omar El-Taji has been in Gaza for more than a week with medical nonprofit Fajr Scientific, working in one of Gaza’s largest remaining hospitals as Israel’s invasion of Rafah deepens.

The European hospital, which was founded by Unrwa with a grant from the EU, has limited resources and fewer local staff to deal with high numbers of patients being admitted with devastating injuries. ‘These people have gone through this for six to seven months now, they cannot go through this any more,’ says El-Taji, who is currently living at the hospital after the medical team’s safe house was evacuated. The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has so far rejected US pressure to hold off on a full-scale attack, claiming Rafah is the last stronghold of Hamas and that Israel can only achieve its war aims by killing militants and leaders in the city

@mathiasmoller1989 I'd say you don't. This is a genocide at a rate that hasn't been seen in our times. It is a genocide against a civillian population with no military. Please find me numbers of children drying at this rate in any recent conflict with no military to support or defend. The rate at which civillians are dying has been discussed by historians as being unprecedented in modern times. Its not about overall number. Its about the that overall number of the population in relation to the time frame. There have never been so many journalists or aid workers killed in any conflict either. Its the time frame etc. Ut would be really easy to educate yourself properly here. Of course there are many "bigger" genocides but you aren't taking in all the factors that have this particular one discussed in the way it is.

@@MrsMac-jh1zj Of the top of my head Rawanda had a significantly higher death toll in a much shorter time frame. In Yemen the combined deaths from conflict and starvation have been significantly higher. In Yemens case that doesn't necessarily make it a genocide though, just like whats happening in Gaza is not a genocide. Israel have no intent to destroy the palestinian population. You seem to be assuming that just because there are civilian casualties that makes it a genocide which is ridiculus.

Years of cruelty and abuse boiled over into violence that the Shin Bet knew was coming for more than 12 months. The Shin Bet warned Netanyahu 2 weeks before the attack something was coming. The US and France warmed Netanyahu 48hours before the attack, so Bbi moved troops away from the Gaza border (and his son to Florida to avoid military service). You’re such a sap for falling for this.
If I were a US or british doctor in Gaza, I would remove the flag from my clothes. Thanks to these heroes.
There would be no Hamas today if every leader was not selfish and there would be no Hamas today if the leaders were not bullies. No life would be lost between the two. What is really affected are the real civilians between the two nations.
US has promoted this and if it were not for the elections they would continue to do so. UK is also complicit. Perhaps they may understand what it is like if they had to live with the Palestinians for a month.
