4. Gazan doctor, Israel cast doubts over Hamas claim infant died from tear gas

May 2018
A Gaza health official cast doubt Tuesday on initial claims that an 8-month-old baby died from Israeli tear gas fired during mass protests on the Gaza border with Israel.

A Gazan doctor told the Associated Press that the baby, Layla Ghandour, had a preexisting medical condition and that he did not believe her death was caused by tear gas. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not allowed to disclose medical information to the media.

Layla’s family claimed Tuesday that the baby had ended up in the area of the protest as a result of a mixup, the AP reported added. The Gaza Health Ministry initially counted her among several dozen Palestinians killed Monday.

A Gaza human rights group, Al Mezan, said it was looking into the circumstances of the infant’s death.

Good that only a "few" children and babies killed or maimed or injured...minimal response again, am I right...hard to imagine any defence of this mass slaughter, but imagination is a wonderful thing.

Incendiary kites adorned with swastikas fly across the Gaza border.

Some people's idea of a "peaceful nonviolent demonstration".

I would think that the swastikas would be a dead giveaway as to what's really going on, but some people are just sympathetic to any attack against Israel.

Then again, its hard to understand the mentality of people who support using women and children in suicidal human wave attacks.

Now that's REAL ethnic cleansing. The purpose of these human wave attacks is to overwhelm the border defenses and spread genocide into all of Israel.

This is just sick. It's obscene! How can they justify this? I am not buying their excuses.

Nobel Peace Prize, my ass! Trump and Bibi should end up in The Hague. I have a feeling they are only getting started.
