This video went viral this weekend. It shows two Palestinian men in Jenin with their hands up, unarmed, being executed by IDF soldiers for no reason at all.
Of course there will be no charges brought against the soldiers, they wont be held accountable and if things in Israel are as sick as they were, they might get a medal or some kind of praise from Israeli media, like the ones who raped that Palestinian a couple months back.
Israel is a sick nation full of sick people.

Pope Leo XIV has reiterated the Vatican’s insistence on a two-state resolution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying it’s the “only solution” that can guarantee justice for both sides.
Leo made the comments as he flew from Turkiye to Lebanon on Sunday for the second and final leg of his maiden international voyage as pope.
On the flight, the pontiff was asked by reporters about his private talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan upon his arrival in Ankara, and whether they discussed the wars in Gaza and Ukraine.
Leo confirmed they had and said Turkiye has an “important role to play” to end both conflicts...

(Don't forget... Afghanistan had nothing to do with 9/11 and the Taliban agreed to catch bin Laden themselves and hand him over if the Bush administration showed them evidence he had anything to do with it and 'W' and Cheney ignored those offers and invaded anyway because they wanted the Trans Afghan Pipeline to go thru the country. And they wanted the poppy field replanted and back producing heroin.)

The former director of UK special forces, along with other senior military officials, attempted to suppress warnings that SAS units in Afghanistan were carrying out unlawful killings, an inquiry has heard, as reported by The Guardian.
A senior special forces whistleblower said the chain of command neglected to halt extrajudicial shootings, including the killing of two young children, after concerns were first raised in early 2011, allowing such incidents to continue until 2013.
The cover-up allegations are among the most serious raised at the inquiry into claims that British SAS units summarily killed 80 people in Afghanistan, with the investigation led by Lord Justice Haddon-Cave after being launched in 2023...

High levels of malnutrition continue to endanger the lives and wellbeing of children in the Gaza Strip, compounded by the onset of winter weather accelerating the spread of disease and increasing the risk of death among the most vulnerable children.
Nutrition screenings conducted by UNICEF and partners identified almost 9,300 children under 5 years of age with acute malnutrition in October, down from 11,746 children in September and 14,363 children in August. While this downward trend demonstrates progress in treating and preventing acute malnutrition among children in Gaza, October still marks one of the highest monthly admissions rates on record, and is nearly five times higher than in February 2025, during the previous ceasefire.
“Despite progress, thousands of children under the age of five remain acutely malnourished in Gaza, while many more lack proper shelter, sanitation and protection against winter,” said UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell. “Too many children in Gaza are still facing hunger, illness and exposure to cold temperatures, conditions that are putting their lives at risk. Every minute counts to protect these children.”
More food supplies have entered Gaza in recent weeks, driving down market prices and improving families’ access to food. However, many essential items, particularly animal-source foods, remain unavailable or unaffordable for most. A UNICEF survey of families conducted in October found that 2 in 3 children under 5 years of age ate two or less food groups out of the recommended eight food groups the week prior, mostly grains, bread or flour.
As winter weather sets in, thousands of displaced families remain in makeshift shelters without warm clothes, blankets or protection from the elements, while heavy rains have washed waste and sewage through floodwaters and into populated areas.
With poor sanitation, overcrowding and limited access to safe water, disease spreads rapidly and disproportionately affects young children. The combination of malnutrition and disease is especially lethal: each condition accelerates and worsens the other. Further, cold temperatures dramatically increase the body’s energy needs, putting malnourished children, who lack fat and muscle reserves, at severe risk of hypothermia...

Nearly 9,300 children under 5 in Gaza were diagnosed with severe acute malnutrition in October, UNICEF warned Saturday, saying winter conditions and the rapid spread of disease are further endangering the lives of the territory's most vulnerable children.
"High levels of malnutrition continue to endanger the lives and wellbeing of children in the Gaza Strip, compounded by the onset of winter weather accelerating the spread of disease and increasing the risk of death among the most vulnerable children," the U.N. agency said in a statement on its website.
According to UNICEF, nutrition screenings carried out by the agency and its partners last month "identified almost 9,300 children under 5 years of age with acute malnutrition in October."
The agency said large quantities of winter supplies remain stuck at Gaza's borders and called for the safe, rapid and unobstructed delivery of humanitarian aid into the territory.
"As winter weather sets in, thousands of displaced families remain in makeshift shelters without warm clothes, blankets or protection from the elements, while heavy rains have washed waste and sewage through floodwaters and into populated areas," it added...
