The picture is courtesy of the extraordinary reporting of Ayman Mohyeldin, reporting from the shelled Shifa Hospital in Gaza. Here's the devastating news: Over a thousand human beings, the overwhelming majority civilians, have been killed by the savage Israeli bombing of cities, fields, beaches, hospitals, schools, shelters, beaches, etc. The maimed, killed injured, bleeding, and traumatized are pouring in at such a rapid rate that the already traumatized Gaza medical facilities are ill-prepared to handle them.
As Ayman puts it: "Hospital workers were barely capable of identifying bodies and were issuing death certificates on the fly and for parents who wanted a cause of death, there was simply no time for proper autopsies meaning few if any will be able to pursue legal recourse against their relative's killers. They had to choose between a full autopsy or laying their loved ones to rest in the few hours of a ceasefire. All of them chose to take their relatives for burial."
Yes, it is as savage as it sounds: Even pending the unlikely outcome of an International Criminal Court investigation (#ICC4Israel), the Israeli army and government is probably going to get away with murder, again.
Something has to change, now.
