Iran warns Israel it will intervene if Gaza operation continues, report claims
independent.co.uk

Iran has told Israel through the UN that it will intervene if the country’s operations against Hamas in Gaza continue, a report has claimed.

Israel has warned 1.1 million people living in the north of the enclave to evacuate ahead of an expected ground operation in Gaza with the IDF planning to strike the territory from land, sea and air.

Iran’s involvement could be through a militant group from Syria or by backing Hezbollah to join the conflict, diplomatic sources told Axios.

Meanwhile, Iran’s foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said that Israel’s operations could cause fighting to expand to other areas of the Middle East which would cause Israel to suffer “a huge earthquake”, reported the Associated Press.

So you can check the United Nations for reputable repeats or condemnation of Israeli actions here is one suck link, but you can search more on the site. .

You can Google Israel using white phosphorus and again find reputable sources.

Also, listen to content from more liberal Israeli’s that are willing to call out their own government.

Again, I want to be abundantly clear I am not defending Hamas, peering pointing out that Israel are just as bad if not worse.

I’ve been very active this morning so stalk my profile to see all the posts I’ve been on and follow those sources and make up your own mind as we all should.

Don’t just believe me. I, like everybody on Earth, has bias.

I did search white phosphorus and all I found was an article from human rights watch, and above that, and article from twb guardian refuting it. I am happy to believe that both Hamas and Israel are committing atrocities, but I would like an actual source so I can point to when arguing with a pro Israel family member.

There is going to be lots of contradictory news sources for the next few weeks. Once the dust settles we will get a fuller picture of what have gone on.

That said you can find videos from Gaza and photos showing what appears to be white phosphorus being used.

The guardian article I saw said that Israel denies using it, which isn’t so much the guardian saying it didn’t happen.

Not that it matters but it’s a fact they used it in 2009 and so why wouldn’t they use it now? Again to be 100 we have to wait a little longer.

Things we do know though is they bombed Gaza and turned of the power so the hospitals couldn’t even help and there are dead Palestinian children thanks to Israeli retaliation.

Which is terrible, particularly since they condemned Hamas for killing Israeli children.

All I want is that Israel to be called out on their horrific acts just the same as we do for any other group, without being called an anti-Semite. Just because they had one of the best worlds worst things happen to them in WWII doesn’t mean they’re above criticism and if anything you would think they of all people would not perpetuate the same level of hatred for a group of people.

Indeed. It is not anti Jews to be anti Israel to the same level we are anti Hamas.

Believe, at most you're gonna get frustrated and maybe, implicitly called anti-semite. I myself i'm of jewish heritage, and hate that people conflate israeli critiscism with antisemitism.
