Israeli forces killed Israelis civilians (and soliders) on Oct 7.

First, the attacks were not by Hamas but by a coalition of Palestinian resistance groups. The focus on Hamas is only to facilitate the erection of a bogey-monster.

Fourth, and most important, to condemn an act of resistance in a context where the occupation is not being condemned is utterly ridiculous and patently immoral. The occupation ought to be interrogated first before the resistance is.

Second, the conflict did not begin on Oct 7. Demands to condemn rely on a decontextualized version of events in order to paint the attacks as “unprovoked”. The chain of Israeli aggressions and brutalities in Gaza and the West Bank prior to Oct 7 is long, ugly, and continuous.

Third, claims the attacks comprised deplorable barbarities such as beheadings, rapes, torture etc. source back to Israeli military/govt. officials. There is no reason they should be believed without clear evidence. Bibi and the IDF are known liars; war is half propaganda.

‘Karni’, from an all-female tank company, told Israel’s N12 News that she was ordered to open tank fire on homes in the Holit kibbutz whether they contained civilians or not. She decided not to, but we know others did. Kibbutz Be’eri is the most striking example of this. /2

Yasmin Porat, resident of Be'eri, was one of those shelled. Her now-famous testimony to Israeli State Radio (Oct 15) reveals when Israeli forces arrived, they fired indiscriminately: “They eliminated everyone, including the hostages. There was very, very heavy crossfire.”

The first point to note is that taking out hundreds of fighters in civilians areas is nigh impossible w/out “firendly fire” casualties, all the more with the IOF’s “Hannibal protocol” of using max force to avoid hostage situations. Testimonial evidence corroborates this. /1

If all of this is not incontrovertible evidence that Israeli forces killed at least some—likely many!—of their own on Oct 7, I don’t know what is! Yet Israeli authorities continue to brush this under the carpet, because admitting to it would tar their case for genocide in Gaza.

My God, this clip sounds 10x worse now than it did in 2019. I can't get over how historically illiterate his position is. The resistance only adopted violence when *decades* of peaceful attempts proved futile, throughout which "the world" couldn't care less.
Khan is also a self-proclaimed student of Hamza Yusuf (born Mark Hanson), a white revert to Islam, who in a 2019 interview mocked 🇵🇸 resistance & blamed Palestinians for Israeli colonization. He also claimed the Nakba drove some Palestinians mad, causing them to be "violent". 5/

Except there's no evidence of Hamas going door-to-door killing families either. (There's testimony to the contrary, e.g. Yasmin Porat). But if we're going with what is typical in war, first thing is to be skeptical of propaganda. Israel's entire narrative of Oct 7 is suspect.
