    CAIRO, Aug 10 (Reuters) - More than 100 Palestinians were killed and dozens wounded in an Israeli strike on a Gaza school sheltering displaced people, the official Palestinian news agency said on Saturday, while the Israeli army said it had hit a Hamas command centre.

    “The Israeli strikes targeted the displaced people while performing Fajr (dawn) prayers, a matter led to a rapid increase in the number of casualties,” the Hamas-run Gaza government media office said in a statement.

    In its statement, the Israeli army said its air forces “struck command and control centre served as a hideout for Hamas terrorists and commanders.”

    “The IAF precisely struck Hamas terrorists operating within a Hamas command and control center embedded in the Al-Taba’een school and located adjacent to a mosque in Daraj Tuffah, which serves as a shelter for the residents of Gaza City.”

    “Prior to the strike, numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians, including the use of precise munitions, aerial surveillance, and intelligence information,” it added.

      But Kamala really shut down those protesters!

      Can’t we focus on Kamala instead of the gcide?

      (Disclaimer: I do support Kamala. Lesser of two evils and all. But I hope Americans grow a conscience.)

        Possibly the best thing we can do is keep the protests going. And I think we’ll have to. Our nation’s violent weirdos are sharpening their knives and loading lead into casing and getting ready to have an uprising. Remember when what happened with Brexit was an indicator for what was coming for America in 2016? Well. Racists are rising up in Britain and anti-racists are standing up to them. View that as a warning. Take note of it, and get ready. If we don’t want America to turn to permanent fascism, we have to get ready to make sacrifices for that to happen. It won’t be easy, but I promise the results, if we do it, will be worth it. We always hear and say “never again.” Well. This is it. It’s happening again. If we want to stop the genocides that are happening across the world, we need to be ready to stop the one that might be about to happen

    “Hospitals? Hamas. Aid convoys? Hamas. Schools? Believe it or not, full Hamas.”
