Palestinian officials are accusing Israeli forces of carrying out “execution-style” killings in Gaza after the discovery of a mass grave containing at least 30 decomposing bodies. Some of the victims were blindfolded with their hands tied behind their backs with zip ties. The bodies were found on the grounds of a school in Beit Lahia. Al Jazeera spoke to one man who helped discover the bodies. Palestinian man: “Inside the schoolyard, we were shocked to find the dead bodies. Those are Palestinian civilians, blindfolded and handcuffed at the back. The dead bodies were kept inside black plastic bags.” The discovery of the mass grave comes as the death toll in Gaza has topped 27,000. At least another 66,000 have been injured. The group Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor is now estimating that more than 25,000 Palestinian children have lost one or both parents in Gaza over the past four months.

I haven’t found any reports of any independent investigations yet, hopefully they are underway

    Maybe I missed it in your link, but where’s the part about the Jews murdering women and children, such as burning infants alive?

    Looking at the casualties, it seems their very limited relative body count were soldiers and police, often killed in action.

    Or did you miss that specification in what I wrote?

        Also are you seriously talking about the AI infant propaganda that the White House had to walk back on after no evidence was presented?

        You seem to be confusing the specific report of beheaded infants for which there was no presented evidence with the well documented reports of infants killed and burned.

        There’s no dispute that infants were killed. Just whether their heads were removed from their bodies by a sharp object before they died.

        Also, what the hell does it have to do with AI? You sound delusional adding that in.

            There’s nothing about AI in that article.

            Are you talking about the photo Ben Shapiro shared?

            An image expert said that was real and the AI detection tools that flagged it are fake have high false positives (which they do):

            But Hany Farid, a professor at UC Berkeley and an expert on digital image manipulation, says the photo is not fake.

            Edit: More info about the expert cited from his Wikipedia page:

            Farid specializes in image analysis and human perception. He has been called the “father” of digital image forensics by NOVA scienceNOW. He is the recipient of a 2006 Guggenheim Fellowship and a 2002 Sloan Fellowship for his work in the field.
