It seems to me that they were linked and the both warheads came from the same missile. Who knows? I would agree with Mike Adams comments today about the number of people that would have been camping and sleeping in their cars and the parking lot. After all, where do you go when you are injured by the thousands of bombs being dropped?

IDF asks Gazan residents to evacuate to Al-Mawasi area

The IDF has asked Gazan residents in the northern Gaza Strip on Wednesday to evacuate to the Al-Mawasi town in the southern area of the region - where international humanitarian aid will be directed.

I was going to question the Israeli government's mentality, but no longer, they have no masks. Although, sometimes, I do not want to see the naked body of the King, known for their terrible and genocidal actions, truly psycopaths. What is surprising is the inaction of the countries that could - I would like to believe - can stop it, I do not know what the heck are they waiting.

Israel wants to send, how many? 2 million, a million, half a million of people to there??? Whatever the cuantity, arab world knows, I assume. And so many other others.
Al-Mawasi. Wikipedia

-Mawasi (Arabic: المواصي) is a Palestinian Bedouin town on the southern coast of the Gaza Strip, approximately one kilometer wide and fourteen kilometers long, that prior to Israel's unilateral disengagement plan in 2005 existed as a Palestinian enclave within the Katif bloc of Israeli settlements. According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, al-Mawasi had a population of 1,409 in mid-year 2006.

Supposedly, near Al Mawasi is where they said that "The Islamic terror group’s live-fire exercise, dubbed operation “Strong Pillar,”. The Times of Israel was.

Al-Mawasi, Gaza Strip: Impossible Life in an Isolated Enclave

March 2003, Summary

Al-Mawasi is a narrow strip of coastal land one kilometer wide and fourteen kilometers long. Gush Qatif settlements lie to its east. The area is rich in water and its residents' main source of income is derived from agriculture and fishing.

Since the founding of the Gush Qatif settlements, the IDF has restricted the movement of al-Mawasi's residents. The severity of the restrictions has grown during the al-Aqsa intifada, effectively imprisoning the Palestinians in their community. The army changes the criteria for allowing the residents to move to and from the nearby cities, Khan Yunis and Rafah, without informing the residents to move to and from the nearby cities, Khan Yunis and Rafah, without informing the residents. At times, the army completely prohibits movement in or out of al-Mawasi; as a result, dozens of residents of al-Mawasi find themselves stuck in Khan Yunis without food, a change of clothes, or a place to spend the night. Consequently, they have to rely on the kindness of relatives and friends to meet these needs.

The restriction on freedom of movement, itself an infringement of human rights, has also resulted in the violation of other human rights. With regard to the right to work and earn a living, the IDF's restrictions have reduced the movement of goods from al-Mawasi to Khan Yunis by ninety percent in comparison with the pre-intifada period, creating a huge loss of income for the farmers, who have been forced to throw away much of their produce or simply let it rot. Farmers who purchased fertilizer and equipment with the intent of paying for them from the revenues derived from the sale of the produce find themselves unable to pay their debts or buy new equipment.

The restrictions infringe the right to education. They severely hamper the educational system in the area, primarily by making it impossible for teachers to reach the schools for days at a time. The IDF has also restricted the entry of electronic equipment and computers to the schools, and only allow other school supplies to enter in limited quantities. In the health field, the restrictions have created a shortage of medicine in the area, and there have been cases in which women have given birth while waiting at the checkpoint and patients have been late for surgery after being delayed at the crossing points.

The widespread restrictions on the freedom of movement and their extensive and harsh consequences on the Palestinian residents constitute collective punishment, which is prohibited by international humanitarian law, with which Israel has promised to comply.

In response to a query by B'Tselem, the IDF Spokesperson's Office did not mention any incidents or dangers directly related to al-Mawasi's residents. Rather, the reply stated that the measures were taken following warnings the army had received. However, it appears that the IDF's arbitrary restrictions result from the proximity to the settlements and the army's continuing control over security matters in the area, which is not the case in the rest of the Gaza Strip.

In conclusion, B'Tselem demands that the IDF change its policy regarding movement in al-Mawasi. The army must allow residents of al-Mawasi to conduct their lives in a normal manner, to move about freely without fear, to receive proper medical treatment, to work and to market their produce, and to educate their children.

In the midst of all else the far right Israelis ie. pathologicals - are being armed by the Government to form a militia to suppress dissent from within Israel. One Knesset member expects there to be a bloodbath if this goes ahead as planned. And if the insane acts of settler violence towards Palestinians in the West Bank is anything to go by, he's probably right; because many of those extremist-religious types indeed behave like a rabid bunch.

I find it interesting that the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion was exposed a few years ago. Then the Canadian government exposes it's support for Nazi ideology via the Hunka incident which shown a light on the 14th SS Waffen Division's ties within Canada. Then, in the video, Dan Cohen talks about the Kahanists, "Azovites of Israel", the followers of Meir Kahane, the leader of the defunct Kach Party. All these groups of the pathological mind coming to the surface before they get covered up again.

Also, for those who are unaware or want to brush-up on Palestinian history, Laura's Timeline of Palestinian History, all in point form, is extensive. I haven't read it all, but did several word searches within it as well as general reading.

Israeli military has 'green light' to move into Gaza, official says

The Israeli military has a “green light” to move into Gaza whenever it's ready, a member of the country’s security cabinet told ABC News.

Reports

In the center of Gaza City, arrive at the Church of St. Porphyrios, considered the third oldest church in the world.

According to preliminary reports, two people were killed, many injured.

"There are no places left for us to run to! My house was bombed - destroyed! Where can I go now? Where to us...?" - screams the man in the video.

According to Seymour Hersh, citing sources: "Israeli troops intend to create something like Hiroshima in Gaza, only without nuclear weapons"

i.e Israel is accumulating all sorts of "special" technologies to eliminate people with minimum infrastructure damage for a long time. This explains some of the video's we are seeing.

• Normally missiles fall from sky to destroy a building top down. Some of the video's show one building crumble from bottom because some how the missile came along narrow line and hit at the bottom. This has to be special design for the specific purpose.
• 100's of people die , but no much damage to the building etc.

If the intended goal is to reuse the land, having and using of these technologies is understandable and it is for psychopathic purposes. Probably we will see more of these "exotic" technologies from Israel against Palestinians.

The Ansarullah movement in Yemen has called for mobilization to defend Palestine.

They have ballistic missiles with a range of 2,000 km and the necessary equipment to close the Bab Al-Mandeb Strait.

They also have kamikaze drones, very similar to the Iranian ones.

According to this Israeli politician, after they finish off the Palestinians, the Israeli govt. and military are gonna put the smackdown on everyone that doesn't support them, including Russia.

Jake Morphonios has dropped his latest war commentary on YT. At the end there is a heartbreaking scene of a traumatised child being comforted by a doctor. The speculation at the moment is that over 1500 children have been killed in less than two weeks, and those who are still alive are completely traumatised. And the US and UK are actively supporting this genocide through their vetoes at the UN. The best hope for the people of Gaza is that they get rid of those Hamas psychopaths. But it's a fool's hope I know. God knows how these people are gonna be able to cope and recover from this, these are not wealthy people, where can they go to rebuild their lives?

Also found this recap from UK Channel 4 news. It's the only decent MSM news show in the UK. It's a few days old but is worth watching to get a glimpse of the suffering. The Gazans get told by the IDF to move south, only for them to get bombed once they get there. I cannot fathom the depth of evil that makes a killer. Years of reading about psychopathy and it still floors me every time I see a new event. Maybe I'm just naive I guess. Even given the history of the region, they're calling this the worst they have ever experienced, Ever the ones for balance, there's a piece on the Israeli hostages too. You have to wonder how many of them have been killed in the airstrikes by this point. A first responder to a kibbutz that was attacked by Hamas, called Yossi, is interviewed at the end and his account is equally harrowing, and his response to what he has witnessed is raw. Apparently Hamas burned members of the kibbutz alive. He's moved to tears talking about it, and there's empathy in him for the innocents of Gaza too. But war brutalises even the mildest of hearts as we all know. I think we've reached the point of no return now.

Incidentally, I actually got a letter from the Labour party today, I tore it up and binned it without reading. The Labour party has been eviscerated since Kier Starmer came into its leadership. The one and only time I voted for Labour was when Jeremy Corbyn was leader, and I'll never vote for them again. Democracy's a sham anyway, we all know it.

There is a rumor in social media that Israel just blew up the third oldest church in the world. Saint Porphyrius Orthodox Church in Gaza but other sources quoting the curator of the church mention that it is not true that the church was destroyed.

Yes, a rumor that in the midst of the strikes could have fallen very close to the church and people were alarmed.

Sometimes fact checkers are useful.
A medieval church in Gaza was not razed by Israeli bombing, contrary to online posts - AP

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Officials with the church in Gaza say the structure remains intact and unharmed during the shelling.

☦ CONFIRMED: Bombing of St. Porphyrios Orthodox Christian Church in Gaza City:
"We have just received confirmation from multiple sources in Gaza that Saint Porphyrios Orthodox Church has been bombed today. Archbishop Alexios appears to have been located and is alive, but we don’t know if he is injured. We have no word on the condition of any other of the more than 500 people being housed at the church and monastery, including the person who has been our source for most of our information.
The bombs hit the two church halls where the refugees, including children and babies, were sleeping. Presently, survivors are searching the rubble for other casualties. Our source at the scene says that they estimate that 150-200 people are dead, and that number is expected to rise as more people are found in the wreckage."

‘Little confidence’ of safety for Christians sheltered in Gaza churches

... Israel will work to protect the churches amid the danger, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reportedly told private sources, but ICC expressed to Baptist Press little confidence of the Christians’ safety as the war intensifies.

The churches could be hit as was the Al Ahli Arab Hospital, with each side blaming the other for such an attack, Joseph Daniel, ICC’s regional manager for the Middle East and North Africa, said Oct. 18.

Members of the dwindling Christian community of about 800 in North Gaza are sheltering at the St. Porphyrios Greek Orthodox Church and the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church, two of only three Christian churches in the area, Daniel said. None are sheltering at the local Baptist church that is not officially recognized as a church, Daniel said.

...

The Greek Orthodox church borders the Anglican compound that includes the Al Ahli Arab Hospital, Daniel said, but is not directly adjacent to the hospital itself. The church was physically shaken and was hit with dust, and those sheltered there could see smoke from the explosion, Daniel’s sources said.

Christians found it safer to shelter at the church than to travel south as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu advised in announcing an imminent ground offensive, Daniel said, because of the safety concerns germane to the Christian community.

“Initially, churches were much safer than [other] buildings,” Daniel said...

They were, as well as hospitals, mosques, schools...
But for IDF, is not in their consideration. They knew the location of both buildings.

Interesting analysis from a military perspective of what a ground invasion of Gaza may look like. Not so easy for Israel!

Unlike JBP, Lex Fridman came out on the side of humanity:

Speaking of Jordan Peterson, I watched his video where he explains what he thinks about the Israel-Palestine situation (so you don't have to!). And I am sorry to report that it's a bunch of intellectualized mental gymnastics to blame everyone for the conflict - from the US State Department to Iran to the Woke gang to Marxists - EXCEPT Israel, which gets zero criticism. It's also full of fallacies, such as 'if the Woke people support Palestine, then the Palestinian cause must be wrong!'

He accuses the Iranian authorities of being examples of 'the dark tetrad' (narcissism, machiavelism, psychopathy and sadism) while pretending to be moral and religious - yet he is incapable of applying the same logic to people like Netanyahu, a proven war criminal. But hey, Bibi did share a dinner table with JP, so there's that, right?

He also argues that he is actually 'pro-Muslim' (but 'anti-thug', whatever that means) - as if that should somehow make him look more virtuous or something. I don't think the moral position here is about embracing this or that religion or all of them - it is about something way more fundamental, which is that people have a right to live in peace and not be oppressed and murdered on a regular basis or kicked out of their land.

But the worst part was probably when he used the phrase "hypothetical cause of the oppressed Palestinians". So there it is - the oppression of Palestine is not real, it's just "hypothetical"! Well, having read a lot about the history of the conflict and having followed the several military operations over the years, I know it only takes a superficial look into it to realize that the Palestinians aren't really imagining their oppression. And he inserts another fallacy: 'there are several Palestinians living and working in Israel and doing better than in Gaza, therefore the conditions in Gaza must be somewhat their own fault or the fault of Iran and their thugs!'

So there it is, a load of rubbish. I'm afraid that Peterson is turning into one of those 'idiot intellectuals' that damage society so much. End of rant.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1714984738266427532

Nice to see more in the mainstream countering the narrative, which at least from my perspective does not seem to be taking hold of as many people as I thought it might).

As much as they are likely on to something here, I suspect that this is more another example of the left vs right narrative conflict. Channel 4 News is notoriously leftist/liberal as far as UK mainstream media goes (far more so than say, the BBC) and will almost always take the side of the perceived 'oppressed' (which of course in this case is the actual oppressed).

I have nothing to back up what I write.
It seems to me that the whole issue with Israel and Palestine is being played out to tie up another part of Russia's power.
On the psychopathic principle of "the end justifies the means".
Russia (like everyone) has limited conventional means of defense. If they prove insufficient then the nuclear option comes in. The raising of Mig-31s with kindles can attest to this. Tying Russia down in several places also eliminates possible Chinese assistance.
And China is the biggest threat, because a few more years and they will swallow the U.S. for breakfast in relative peace and especially militarily.
