| Initial IDF probe: 3 hostages were shirtless, waving white flag when troops shot them |
| 2023-12-17 |
| [IsraelTimes] One of the 3 killed in tragic mistake shouted ’Help’ in Hebrew; IDF says soldiers fired against protocols; on Wed., troops found ’SOS’ and ’Help, 3 hostages’ spray-painted nearby Three hostages rubbed out by Israeli troops in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... City’s Shejaiya neighborhood Friday were shirtless, and one of them was carrying a stick with a makeshift white flag, the IDF said Saturday after an initial probe into the tragic incident. |

| #10 From the look of it at the present the mistakes are not justifiable. It maybe even murder. Of course the fact that more than thousand Palestinians surrendered including hundreds of Hamas it also means that this is not policy. |

| #7 We are going to see this spun in all sorts of ways, mostly those that make Netanyahu and the IDF look bad. Can you really call it confirmation bias when you are working in an environment where nearly everyone and every thing you come across is trying to kill you? "Oh, look! Some poor child dropped this cute pink teddy bear that *BOOM*." Oopsie! Your dead. "Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I am innocent Palestin*BOOM*" Oopsie! You and your 3 buddies are dead. In a high-stress environment, people make mistakes. I wish it were otherwise, but it is not. |

| #6 You're the only one who thinks Gaza has civilians. |

| #5 ^ that's the point in the convention to wearing uniforms or clear display of combatant status. Hamas doesn't. Thus they created the situation by their actions. However, don't let Hama's violation of the convention stop you from blaming the other side for such events. |

| #4 Am I the only one to notice that they were shot because the IDF mistook them for Gazan civilians? |

| #3 ^ worked both ways in the Pacific '41-'45. It's called war. Has been since they started making records and before. |

| #2 Confirmation bias. When you are convinced that the enemy is subhuman, why bother doing anything but shooting the ones foolish enough to show themselves. Trying to surrender is just another Gazan trick. |

| #1 A day before that 9 IDF soldiers were killed by a suicide boomer - the odds he got close enough are by pretending to surrender. That would make me trigger happy. Day after, three hostages, miraculously managed to escape only to be shoot by IDF. |
