I have to hold back my tears when I hear this. Although I'm a Christian, I could empathize when a desperate prayer because there doesn't seem to be any more hope for these people.

Does anyone hear what this man is saying??!? He’s talking about killing civilians like it’s necessary and the right thing to do under the circumstances.

“There’s gonna be a lot of death and destruction. A lot of people are gonna get hurt.”


“There is a tactical strategy in the flattening of the buildings.”

“You can hear the missile fire…hitting rubble. There’s gonna be a lot of violence of action. There will be a lot of death and trauma.”


Imagine for one second he was talking about a city in the U.S. or Western Europe, and that the victims were white and christian. Would it be acceptable for him to to be talking about planning this kind of death and destruction?

And as usual CNN does nothing to push back on the fact that so called collateral damage is completely acceptable to western imperialists and their allies.

The call to prayer while bombs dropping has got to be one of the most haunting real- life thing I've ever heard

[narchy]

That legit makes me feel like we’re definitely in hell. I can’t imagine how trapped and helpless these Palestinians feel.

If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.

That’s eerie as hell. Very disturbing…

[AngelicaSummer]

[belfastgypsy]

That’s one of the strangest and saddest sounds I have heard

[Magu_Hunter]

no matter if you are enemy or foe killing innocent civilians to accomplish a goal is a war crime in this video you hear civilians singing praying to god for help to do this to innocent civilians make you no different then the terrorist you fighting .

[jamesdawson]

wow, that call to prayer was like the siren at the end of the world. If there was ever any proof that prayers go unanswered, gaza is it

[peterlongprong]

gee... all this death over religion ` makes you wonder why humanity is so insane

[wildthings]

Hamas use it's own people as human shields

[zachisaacson]

That prayer is easily one of the most bone chilling sounds I’ve heard in a lifetime

[PrivateBanking]

🗽 🙏🏻🧐🙏🏻 ⚖️ Both sides deserve to be protected from those who care not about a human life & Shields themselves with innocent lives.💯

[BeHumanWithOutBorders]

Why no country come to help Gaza. Why no country stand up for Palestinians?

[rustyshackleford]

The call to prayer is absolutely terrifying with explosions going off in the background. Its like a trippy auditory hallucination.

[InfiniteWaveMusic]

Is that what happened to native indians when usa colonized thier country?

[Phil-fwib]

The media often presents a biased perspective, highlighting the power disparity between Israel and the Palestinians, with Israel being the dominant force. While acknowledging the heinous actions committed by Hamas, it is imperative to emphasize the principle that innocent individuals, who bear no responsibility for these atrocities, should never be subjected to indiscriminate bombings. The Middle East is in dire need of peace, and it is noteworthy that both Arabs and Jews profess devotion to a deity characterized by love and harmony.

NO COMPROMISE WITH HAMAS.
NO COMPROMISE WITH IRAN.

These poor people. The civilians, Israeli and here, Palestinian, are living in a real life horror movie. And we are just watching it happen. Incredibly sad.
