BBC Discovers 'Hamas Official' Among Dead Civilians in Gaza
According to the BBC, Israel successfully targeted a high-value Hamas official. Yet the very same report admits 'four people were killed and multiple passers-by injured.' (BBC World, 'Israel targets senior Hamas official in deadly Gaza strike') One might ponder how many times these 'targeted assassinations' also miraculously eliminate surrounding infrastructure, homes, and, indeed, many other
unnamed individuals. This isn't surgical precision; it's a feature, not a bug, of a strategy that has seen over 37,000 Palestinians killed since October 7th, predominantly women and children, according to the UN. When the target is merely a 'Hamas official,' it grants a convenient pretext for maximum destruction, ensuring the 'passers-by' are simply collateral damage in the narrative. The price of
one 'official,' it seems, is a dozen untargeted lives.
