GAZA: Israeli soldier gave 74-year-old Palestinian woman water then shot her in the head

[Irfan Baloch]

You guys taking this story seriously ? If the old woman was shot in the head from one meter away, with what weapon ? The standard 5.56 mm ? From one meter away, there might not be any head left for the second photo. As for the second photo, how do we know that she is dead and not sleeping ? If there is a head wound, show it.

misinformation and playing with real or fake tragedy is a reality of today's world.
I was thinking the same.

reminds me of a picture where a group of soldiers is helping an injured Iraqi and the same picture is adulterated in a way to show that a gun is being pointed at his head although in full picture its slung on the shoulder of the US soldier.
I looked it up but couldn't find it yet but if I do I will share it


there is yet another picture which exposes some inconsistencies.
I, in no way am dismissing any atrocities against civilians and I don't pretend that IDF has a clean record regarding its dealing with the civilians but I despise fakery and propaganda

Nevertheless, I think it's important that you go through life realizing that you're supporting murderous falsehoods and evil rather than justice and good. And it's important that the people around you realize the same thing about you - that your claims to act in the name of justice are phony and you're really a very nasty person who should be shunned and rejected rather than accepted and followed.

you are american.. dont talk about murderers and evil you are the worst nation in history. since america was established it killed more than 120 million human beings.

I don't accept your numbers without sourcing and we're both aware that you're trying to obscure the moral differences between killings in self-defense and those of murder.

So you're engaged in slander, while I'm engaged in propagating truth, as best as I can determine. Shouldn't my words are worth more than yours, then? Despite the fact I call myself a Jew and a Zionist?

Your racism appears to be a primary motivator that your trumpeting of "payback" is intended to support.

74-year-old Palestinian woman Ghalya Abu-Rida being given water by Israeli troops, minutes before she was executed

During the Israeli bombardment and shelling of the Gaza Strip last summer, an Israeli soldier approached a 74-year-old Palestinian woman Ghalya Abu-Rida to give her a sip of water. He gave her the water, took a photo with her and then he shot her in the head from a distance of one metre. He then watched as she bled to death, the Palestine Information Centre reported.

This is how Ahmad Qdeh, a journalist in Al-Aqsa TV, described the scene that he witnessed during the latest Israeli aggression. The spokesman of the Israeli army, Avichay Adraee, shared the photo of an Israeli soldier holding the water bottle and helping the old woman drink as an example of the "humanity" of the Israeli army towards the civilians in the Gaza Strip.

The field executions were among the stories Qdeh reported during the Israeli aggression on Gaza Strip. He said: "Ghalya Ahmad Abu-Rida lived in the Khuza'a area in the east of Khan Younis city. I live in that area too and I made a television report on her story after the Israeli soldiers executed her during the aggression."

"During the aggression, an Israeli soldier approached the old woman and took a photo for another soldier while giving her water. They then executed her by shooting her in the head from a distance of one metre and let her bleed until she died," he added.

Ghalya was born in 1941. She lived by herself in a room near her brothers' house in the Abu-Rida neighbourhood of Khuza'a. She had no children. Her neighbourhood was one of the first places invaded by the Israeli army during the aggression.

Field Execution
Majed Abu-Rida, Ghalya's nephew, confirmed to the media that his aunt was visually impaired and could hardly see. He said that the Israeli army had falsely claimed humanity while executing his aunt in cold blood.

Ghalya, with her weak body and white hair, refused to leave her house after the Israeli army ordered the residents of Khuza'a to evacuate. She thought her old age would protect her from being a target so she stayed in her home and refused to join the majority of the residents who left the area as the invasion began.

On 3 August, the Israeli forces announced a truce and allowed medical staff to reach the Khuza'a area. Ghalya was found dead after she bled to death as she was shot in the head near her house, Al-Aqsa TV confirmed to MEMO. Her brother confirmed that the photo shared by the Israeli army supported the family's belief that Ghalya was in the hands of the Israeli army. The family also believed that the area in which Ghalya appeared in the photo and in which she was found asserted that the Israeli forces killed her after taking the photo for the media.

Misinformation
Professor of media at the universities of Gaza, Ahmad Al-Farra, said: "The photo the Israeli army spokesman shared is misleading propaganda by the Israeli army to present a humane portrait of its soldiers. It can enhance the opportunity to pursue the Israeli army's soldiers as war criminals before the International Criminal Court."

"This photo proves the confusion of the Israeli army spokesman in defending his army. It proves that they killed civilians," he added.

He continued: "The Israeli occupation lies and misinforms in an attempt to affect international public opinion. It exploits the Arab media and Palestinian diplomacy in exposing the Israeli occupation's crimes." He demanded launching a large campaign to expose the Israeli lies and falsifications.

Al-Farra stressed the need for a media enlightenment campaign to go side by side with the field battles to correct the false image that Israel presents about its army and the resistance.

Israel carried out a 51-day war that claimed the lives of around 2,200 Palestinians and wounded around 11,000 others.

I haven't read any further so excuse this point if it has already been made.

do you know of the shooting in france around a week or 2 ago? Remember a police officer got shot at point blank range, with a 7.62 ak round. Where is his head? blood? brains? care to explain that with this narrative.

 

[somebozo]

Great Pallywood propoganda..I quit reading past "This is how Ahmad Qdeh, a journalist in Al-Aqsa TV, "..Most likely a Pally terrorist watching from a close distant shot her as an opportunity to defame Israel..

Once a Hindu is always a hindu.


U hindus are the real disgusting creatures of All Mighty. I just stopped
reading after this.

You do realise am just quoting the blog right and that has nothing to do with being a Hindu or not So save us your sanctimonious bs.

And yes we all know that bigoted Muslims like you are the awesomest creatures of the "All Mighty" .

Great Pallywood propoganda..I quit reading past "This is how Ahmad Qdeh, a journalist in Al-Aqsa TV, "..Most likely a Pally terrorist watching from a close distant shot her as an opportunity to defame Israel..

OOOO watch out, @Umair Nawaz , the "research scholar" might call you a filthy Hindu.

It is not that difficult to find gun head shot pics on the Internet. Considering how the Muslims usually shows people, adults and children, dead from Israeli actions, what happened here ? Where are the gore ?

What is wrong with humans?

 

[Solomon2]

What is wrong with humans?

Not all humans. Only some. In Pakistan your government, through the Higher Education Commission, claims that representing Israel with accuracy "challenge(s) the ideology and principles of Pakistan, and/or perspective of the government of Pakistan." Too many people demonize Jews and Israelis, making it much easier to demonize others. There are no inherent rights, only the deaths of "innocent xxxx" should be condemned but there's always a way to claim xxxx isn't innocent, or their parents weren't, along with other shibboleths like denying that many Muslims don't accept that non-Muslims have equal rights to life, liberty, and property and that modern rule-of-law justice systems like America's or Israel's are far more just than the rule-by-law systems active in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, or ISIS. The distortions of logic, fact, and logic are all deemed politically necessary to keep the Establishment in power and the people down.

 

[coffee_cup]

Not all humans. Only some. ....

Yeah like e.g. Israelis who have a free ticket to perform any atrocities in the world?

Knowing that they don't have to fear any independent inquiry by any independent international institution such as ICC etc, because the West, so much in love with "human rights", etc won't allow it?

And knowing it doesn't matter, if huge majority of the countries in UNO general assembly would pass a resolution asking Israel to stop converting Gaza stip to a concentration camp, because USA would anyway block it by veto?

Have some feelings dude, be human first for a while instead of being zionist first.

She was shot dead from one meter with assault rifle (May be 5.6 cal).

You Pakistani call yourself defense expert, I will show you how it look when some one is shot at point blank range from Assault rifles.. Head will blow off, Pool of blood will spread all over...

Basic Human nature is "to question", withouot it you are just a Zombie.... This is why Pakistan religion is "Propaganda"(as mention by Hassan Nissar)
