This article contains descriptions of violence which some readers may find distressing.
The Israeli military held a screening for journalists on Monday of raw footage recovered from Hamas body cameras, in an effort to remind the world of the brutality of the attack on Israel two weeks ago.
The bodycam footage, cut together with clips from CCTV, dashboard cameras and the mobile phones of both Hamas gunmen and victims, showed in stark detail the sheer horror visited on a music festival and family neighbourhoods in southern Israel.
The Israeli military also released documents which they said were recovered from dead Hamas members, containing detailed operational planning and instructions for attacking the neighbourhoods and taking hostages.
The 43 minutes of footage screened in Tel Aviv on Monday was distilled from hundreds of hours of footage collected since the attack, the Israeli military said. It contained clips of Hamas gunmen cheering with apparent joy as they shot civilians on the road, and later stalking the pathways of kibbutzim and killing parents and children in their homes.
Whatabout acknowledging how utterly inhuman that attack was, and that it happened, without worrying about it overshadowing other war crimes you want to bring to light?
Next the footage of those journalists you blew up?
What about… What about … What about… What about…
One has to wonder what type of person finds this sufficient justification for the more than 2000 Palestinian children the IDF has killed so far just this past week.
One also has to wonder what type of person is in the Iraeli propaganda services when they seem to think more people will be swayed to “side with Israel” if they repeatedly push this kind of thing out at this point in light of what the Israelis are curently doing with no expectation of them stopping.
Makes me think of the psychological mechanism of Projection and how those who have a monstrous mindset presume that others are driven by a similar mindset.
Indeed, what kind of mindset starts all this knowing retribution will be high. Probably mind that doesn’t care about people’s lives.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

It contained clips of Hamas gunmen cheering with apparent joy as they shot civilians on the road, and later stalking the pathways of kibbutzim and killing parents and children in their homes.
After the two boys, bloodied and in shock, had staggered back into their home screaming, a Hamas gunman calmly entered and looked through the fridge in front of them, pausing to take a drink before walking out again.
The film also contained an audio recording of one of the Hamas gunmen calling home to his parents in Gaza from the phone of a victim to boast that he had “killed at least 10 Jews with my bare hands”.
Another sequence showed one Hamas gunman shooting the apparently dead bodies of civilians inside a kibbutz in a celebratory manner, and an attempt to decapitate someone who appeared to be still alive using a garden hoe.
The original article contains 998 words, the summary contains 221 words. Saved 78%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
What about the body cam videos of Israeli troops shooting teenagers throwing rocks?
Not so eager to show that off, eh?
Whatabout the Great March of Return where 223 Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces?

There is no published footage of the compilation available online. There were no cameras allowed inside the conference.
Many of the videos mentioned are publically available for the morbidly curious.
First. Whatabout the 5000 deaths in Gaza?
Comment was reported for daring to quote the 5,000 number which is a documented fact:
https://dppa.un.org/en/israel-palestine-gaza-death-toll-passes-5000-with-no-ceasefire-sight
Comment remains. Don’t like that number? Take it up with the U.N.
I know you’re citing the United Nations as an authority, and providing a link is definitely welcome, but the site you’re linking literally says
The number of people killed in Gaza has reached 5,087 according to latest reports from de facto authorities there
thereby acknowledging that even the UN is merely repeating the numbers that Hamas is giving them.
Could we maybe agree that blindly accepting whatever Hamas is saying as truth is not the best policy?
If the number is good enough for the U.N., it’s good enough for me. I’m in no position to “Um, aCKtUaLly…” the United Nations. ;)
If they felt it was wrong or biased they wouldn’t cite it.
They themselves imply the number is likely to be biased (the defacto authority is hardly going to be impartial), but I agree, it isn’t your job to second guess the numbers being used by the UN.
We can only interpret the information we’re given. To dismiss it is naive.
To take it for granted, given the source, is more naïve.
I’m sure the UN 🇺🇳 will take your comment into consideration.

And the numbers were not biased in the end. Shock?
You mean we should believe the numbers when the IDF is reporting them?
No, I mean you were wrong 😊 let me know when you need more reading comprehension help
Because the IDF reported those numbers, and if the IDF reports those numbers, that means you were right?
No, because the numbers were always right, because the UN and Gazan medical health centers and hospitals are reliable and have always been.
Appeal to authority
Good mod
What about them? Would any of them occur, if the 7th October attack never happened? Doubt.
What about the Nakba which created the conditions that caused the October 7 attack?
So you don’t deny the massacre on civilians, like that Hamas leader did? You think this was warranted?
Odd how almost all of the confirmed dead are between 18 and 65 then, huh?
Hey arm chair generals no one deserves to die.
“Your son killed so many Jews,” he said. “Mum, your son is a hero.”
