This is not the first time that an investigation has found that Israel is deliberately targeting children.

In August, the BBC World Service uncovered more than 160 cases of children in Gaza shot by Israeli forces. In 95 of those cases, the children were hit in the head or chest – injuries, doctors said, that leave little doubt they were deliberately targeted.

Most of the victims were under 12 years old, according to the BBC’s findings. The incidents stretch from the opening weeks of the war in October 2023 through July this year.

The fucking worst.

I said to someone yesterday I don’t think these people understand all the downstream effects of their policies. (We were just talking about deaths and illnesses caused by unnecessary cuts to healthcare in the U.S. at the time, but I think it applies to just about all of this awful shit all over the world as these authoritarian sacks of shit take over.)

Then I said even if they knew I don’t think they could ever really understand. He sighed and said he thinks they do it because they get off on it. This kind of shit makes me think he’s probably right, at least in some cases.

There are a lot of individuals who are just kind of callous/careless assholes. In some ways everybody has the potential for that. Maybe they don’t mean to do harm. Or maybe they don’t care if the do. Or maybe they just don’t let themselves really think about the consequences of what they’re doing.

Then there are people that are just fucking sick and evil in ways most people can’t really comprehend. I can’t comprehend why anyone would make it a fucking priority to do the most evil and fucked up shit like this, unless they did indeed just get off on the power of being able to do it and get away with it. Legitimate evil walking on earth, gaining power they never should have been given, and passing down these sick fucking orders to be carried out in huge numbers against other people.

It’s just so fucking infuriating to know that it’s not just completely unnecessary starvation due to fucked up policy and not caring about the consequences, it’s not just trying to keep the Epstein stuff under wraps (and god only knows wtf horrific shit is all hiding there), it’s literal systematic targeting of the most innocent. Intentionally harming those who have done absolutely nothing fucking wrong. The ones every human should have an instinct to protect. Then to tell such a fucking blatant lie with a straight face, and claim you only did what you had to do. Like you had no choice in the matter. Sick fucking psychotic scum of the earth.

I feel like allowing mob justice would be too fucking kind. Death under any circumstances would be too easy for this man. I hope we don’t repeat the mistake that happened last time.

I hope this motherfucker is put on trial before the whole fucking world, and I hope he’s sentenced to rot in prison for the rest of his life while being forced to complete hard labor working towards righting all the wrongs he could never be able to fix, under the people he has harmed so tremendously for no fucking reason other than the fact that he believed he could. Because he believed he was untouchable.
