Hamas fighting from hospitals and schools Download YouTube 2023-11-09 (#097) < Previous Next > Question: What can Gazans encircled by the IDF do to leave Gaza City? Reply: Israel has opened a humanitarian corridor. Northern Gaza is dangerous because Hamas has embedded itself in people's homes and under hospitals and schools, making those legitiamate targets under international law, which states that medical units cannot be used to shield military targets. Indeed, the fact that Hamas has its headquarters in the basement of a hospital is a war crime! The hospital becomes a legitimate target once the IDF has taken every possible precaution to get civilians out of harm's way. Israel has a quarter million displaced persons because Israel wants to get them out of harm's way, just as it wants for the Palestinian civilians. The IDF does more than any army in the history of modern warfare to safeguard the civilians on the other side from the consequences of Hamas' actions which endanger their lives. Video Transcription: What. What can Gazans do who have not been able to leave Gaza City and now find themselves encircled by IDF? Israel has been continuing to operate humanitarian corridors over the last few days. And by the way, most residents of northern Gaza have heeded Israel's warning. Of the 1.1 million residents of northern Gaza, latest figures I've seen are that only 100,000 remain in the north, and that is before the humanitarian corridors of recent days. The fighting in northern Gaza is going to get dangerous. It's going to get dangerous because Hamas has literally embedded itself under people's homes, under schools, underneath hospitals, and those are all legitimate targets under international law. When Prime Minister Rishi Sunak says the UK wants Israel to win, it wants us to go after these terror targets so they can never perpetrate the massacre again. And we hope understanding of international law is that they are only targets that you can aim at as long as civilians are not in the path of those missiles and rockets. No, it's important that we're on the same page about international law. And I know that's very important for British, very important for British audiences especially. International law says that medical units may not be used under any circumstances to shield military targets. The fact that Hamas has its military headquarters in the basement of the Shifa Hospital is a war crime. Period. The next article of international law, I'm quoting additional protocol, one of the Geneva Conventions, generally taken as a fatal reflection of customary. International law says that those medical units may lose their protected status when they are used to shield military targets as long as sufficient warning has been given and every possible precaution taken to get civilians out of harm's way. It does not say that the targets underneath hospitals may only be targeted once there are no civilians in the vicinity. It says they become legitimate targets when our army has made every possible precaution to get civilians out of harm's way. And I'll remind you, it's been three weeks now that Israeli soldiers have been placing 20,000 phone calls to residents of Gaza, urging them to leave, dropping one and a half million leaflets, sending 10 million SMS. Well, from the hospitals, we understand that it is very difficult. Israel also has its own internally displaced person problem. We have a quarter of a million evacuees, including elderly people, including sick people, who've been forced to leave Nerod, who've been forced to leave Kiriad Shmona up in the north, because we want to get them out of harm's way and we want Palestinians to get out of harm's way as well. And we think that anyone in the international community genuinely concerned for civilians should be helping and encouraging that evacuation of civilians to get them out of harm's way. That is their responsibility under international law, instead of criticizing Israel for doing everything it can, more than any army in the history of warfare, by the way, to keep the other side civilians safe from the consequences of their own leaders'reckless endangerment of them.

Moments in life. President Biden about peace and terror Download YouTube 2023-10-24 (#033) < Previous Next > President Biden talks of the moments of pure unadulerated evil that Israel underwent on October 7th committed by Hamas, a group whose stated purpose for being is to kill Jews. More than 1000 civilians were slaughtered, among them at least14 Americans, parents butchered while bodily trying to protect their children, stomch-turning reports of babies being killed, enire families slain, young people massacred at a music festival to celebrate peace, women raped and paraded as trophies, desperately fearful moments trying to keep children quiet so as not to draw the attention of the terrorists. So many families are desperately waiting to hear of the fate of their loved ones not knowing whether they're alive, dead, hostages. Infants, elderly people in wheelchairs, Holocaust survivors, abducted and held hostage. THIS IS TERRORISM! But sadly, for the Jewish people, it is not new and this attack has brought to the surface painful memories of the Holocaust. There's no justification for terrorism. Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people. It stans for the annihilation of the State of Israel and the Jewish people. They use Palestinian civilians as human shields. Hamas knows nothing but terror and bloodshed with no regard to who pays the price. Like every nation in the world, Israel has the right and the duty to respond to these vicious attacks and the heartbreaking loss of innocent life. Biden has one word for anyone who thinks of taking advantage of the situation: "DON'T!" Video Transcription: Coming soon

New Rule: From the River to the Sea | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO) Download YouTube 2023-12-17 (215) < Previous Next > It may be a “magical time of year,” but what we all really need right now is a good dose of realism about Israel and Palestine. Video Transcription: -(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) -And finally, New Rule. I know, it's supposed to be that magical time of year, but maybe, what we all really need right now, is a good dose of realism. I see a lot of nativity scenes when I'm out, as you always do before Christmas. And I can't help thinking about where that manger really is. It's in the West Bank on Palestinian land, controlled by the Palestinian authority. In 1950, the little town of Bethlehem was 86 percent Christian, now it's overwhelmingly Muslim. And that's my point tonight, things change. To 2.3 billion Christians, there can be no more sacred site than where their Savior was born but they don't have it anymore. And yet, no Crusader Army has geared up to take it back. Things change. Countries, boundaries, empires. Palestine was under the Ottoman Empire for 400 years, but today, an ottoman is something you put under your feet. -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) -(CLEARS THROAT) The city of Byzantium became the city of Constantinople, became Istanbul. Not everybody liked it, but you can't keep arguing the call forever. The Irish had the entire island to themselves, but the British were starting an Empire, and well, the Irish lost their tip. -(SMACKS LIPS) -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) -They, uh... -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING, CHEERING) They blew each other up over it for 30 years, but eventually everybody comes to an accommodation, except the Palestinians. Was it unjust that even a single Arab family was forced to move upon the founding of the Jewish state? Yes. But it's also not rare. Happening all through history, all over the world, and mostly what people do is make the best of it. After World War II, 12 million ethnic Germans got shoved out of Russia, and Poland, and Czechoslovakia because being German had become kind of unpopular. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING) A million Greeks were shoved out of Turkey in 1923, a million Ghanaians out of Nigeria in 1983, almost a million French out of Algeria in 1962, nearly a million Syrian refugees moved to Germany eight years ago. Was that a perfect fit? And no one knows more about being pushed off land... (SCOFFS) ...than the Jews. Including being almost wholly kicked out of every Arab country they once lived in. -Yes, TikTok fans. Ethnic-- -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING) Ethnic cleansing happened both ways. In Fiddler on the Roof, the family is always moving to stay one step ahead of the Cossacks, but they deal with it. When they're leaving Anatevka, they say, "Hey, it wasn't so great anyway." (AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) (CHUCKLES) "Come on. Like other countries don't have roofs -you could fiddle on." -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING) -(CHUCKLES) -BILL MAHER: Now... (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) Now, that's not how they really felt, but they were coping. They coped. Because sometimes, that's all you can do. History is brutal and humans are not good people. History is sad and full of wrongs, but you can't make them unhappen because a paraglider isn't a time machine. People get moved, and yes, colonized. Nobody was a bigger colonizer than the Muslim army that swept out of the Arabian Desert and took over much of the world in a single century. And they didn't do it by asking. There's a reason Saudi Arabia's flag is a sword. Kosovo was the cradle of Christian Serbia, then it became Muslim. They fought a war about it in the '90s, but stopped. They didn't keep it going for 75 years. There were deals on the table to share the land called Palestine. In 1947, '93, '95, '98, 2000, 2008. And East Jerusalem could have been the capital of a Palestinian state that today might look more like Dubai than Gaza. Arafat was offered 95 percent of the West Bank, and said no. The Palestinian people should know, your leaders and the useful idiots on college campuses who are their allies are not doing you any favors by keeping alive "The River to the Sea" myth. I mean where do you think Israel is going? -Spoiler alert, nowhere. -(AUDIENCE CHEERING, APPLAUDING) It's one of the most powerful countries in the world with the 500-billion-dollar economy, the world's second largest tech sector after Silicon Valley, and nuclear weapons. They're here, they like their bagel -with a shmear, get used to it. -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) What's happening to Palestinians today is horrible, and not just in Gaza, in the West Bank too. But wars end with negotiation and what the media glosses over is-- It's hard to negotiate when the other side's bargaining position is you all die and disappear. (SCOFFS) I mean, the chant "From the River to the Sea." Yeah, let's look at the map. Here's the river, here's the sea. Oh, I see, it means you get all of it. Not just the West Bank which was basically the original UN partition deal you rejected because you wanted all of it and always have. Even though, it's indisputably also the Jews' ancestral homeland. And so, you attacked and lost. And attacked again and lost. And attacked again and lost. As my friend, Dr. Phil says, "How's that working for you?" (AUDIENCE CHEERING, APPLAUDING) Look at what Mexico used to own. All the way up to the top of California, but no Mexican is out there chanting, "From the Rio Grande to Portland, Oregon." (AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) Because they chose a different path. They got real and built a country that's the world's 14th biggest economy now. Because they knew the United States wasn't going to give back Phoenix, any more than Hamas will ever be in Tel Aviv. -(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) -One of... (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) One of the leaders of Hamas says... (SCOFFS) I'm sorry, who's the one with imaginary dreams? If I give you the benefit of the doubt and say your plan for a completely Jew-less Palestine isn't that all the Jews should die. (SMACKS LIPS) What is the only other option? They move. You move all the Jews. (SCOFFS) Okay, I got to warn you, there's gonna be some kvetching. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) (SCOFFS) You move all the Jews and we do this with what? A fleet of trucks called Jew-haul. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) And to where are we moving this entire country? Texas? -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING) -Sure, they have room and I guess we could put the Wailing Wall on the border and kill two birds with one stone. -(AUDIENCE LAUGHING, APPLAUDING) -Or we could just get serious.

Supporting Israel October 7th Impact on the west President Biden's remarks on the October 7th terrorist attacks and the resilience of the State of Israel, as found on the White House website, emphasize the strong support of the United States for Israel. In his speech, President Biden conveyed a clear message of solidarity, stating, "You are not alone. As long as the United States stands — and we will stand forever — we will not let you ever be alone." This statement underscores the enduring commitment of the U.S. to stand with Israel, particularly in the face of terrorist threats and challenges to its security and resilience. The speech reflects the deep ties between the two nations and the U.S. administration's unwavering support for Israel's safety and sovereignty. Pro-Israel rallies in Europe, and the US have gathered significant support in response to the conflict with Hamas. These rallies, often organized by Jewish communities and their supporters, have been marked by calls for peace and solidarity with Israel. In the United States, a record number of Jews rallied in Washington D.C., showing support for Israel's actions against Hamas. The rallies have been characterized by the display of Israeli flags, calls for the release of hostages, and expressions of concern for the safety of Jewish communities.Participants have emphasized the importance of standing with Israel, highlighting the nation's right to defend itself against attacks. These gatherings reflect a strong sentiment among supporters of Israel, who seek to counter the narrative of pro-Palestinian rallies and emphasize the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.The rallies also demonstrate the deep divisions in public opinion regarding the conflict, with a notable contrast between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian perspectives.

Cornell student Talia Dror shares her post-October 7th campus experiences. Download YouTube 2023-11-19 (#135) < Previous Next > Campus Free Speech During Israel-Hamas War Advocates and activists testified at a House Ways and Means Committee hearing on antisemitism amid the Israel-Hamas war and free speech on college campuses. Topics included safety on college campuses, funding of charities and universities, and anti-Israel rhetoric on social media. Video Transcription: Chairman Smith, ranking member Neil, and members of the Ways and Means Committee, thank you for the invitation to testify today. My name is Talia Dror. I'm a student at Cornell, studying industrial and labor relations with minors in business and legal policy. But beyond that, I am the embodiment of the American dream. I'm the child of an immigrant who fled Iran after facing religious persecution, dreaming of an America where she could openly raise a Jewish family. I grew up hearing the cautionary tales of blatant anti Semitism, how my grandfather was stabbed for being a Jew, how my mother was called a dirty Jew on a daily basis, how my family had to pretend they weren't Jewish. But I never thought the horrific antisemitism they faced would follow us to the country we fled to for refuge. 39 days ago, as I witnessed the mass rape, mutilation, and massacre committed by Hamas, my reality as a college student in the United States radically transformed. Students, professors, and administrators at Cornell celebrated the massacre of innocent civilians just five days after the heinous terror attacks. The student assembly introduced a resolution calling Hamas, quote, an armed resistance and placing full blame for the October 7 attacks on Israel. At the hearing, I spoke about the fact that the very terrorists organ endorsed by that resolution called for a global day of rage. The next day, I explained that as a Jewish student leader, my community is terrified to walk around the school they pay to attend because they are afraid of getting threatened, assaulted, or killed. Students at rallies chant genocidal phrases like, from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. This is a chant that calls for the elimination of the State of Israel and all 7 million Jews inside of it. This is a chant that calls for a second Holocaust. Students scream antifata revolution, calling for deadly terror attacks on civilians. A Cornell professor announced that he was exhilarated and energized by the Hamas attacks, by the murder of my family and friends. On October 25, Cornell students woke up to a campus vandalized with graffiti that said, Zionism equals genocide and new antifada. That day, students walking into their classes stepped over calls for terror attacks and accusations of being genocidal for supporting the existence of the State of Israel. Cornell's administration has made firm statements on everything from Supreme Court cases to the war in Ukraine to Black Lives Matter. But in the wake of the deadliest day in Jewish history since the Holocaust, administrators have excused endorsements of terrorism under the guise of free speech. In their initial statement, they compared, quote, the loss of life in the Middle east to deaths caused by natural disasters. They allowed tensions to fester on campus, professors to use captive audiences to preach terrorist sympathies and the targeting of Jewish students on their campus. They paved the perfect path for radicalized individuals to shift calls for the murder of Jews in Israel to calls for the extermination of Jews on campus. On the morning of October 29, the Provost, in an address to concerned Jewish parents, explained that while he understands concerns for their children's physical safety, that they shouldn't be worried. Not 7 hours later, Jewish students on campus received threats that said, quote, if I see another Jew on campus, I will stab you and slit your throat. If I see another pig female Jew, I will drag you away, rape you, and throw you off a cliff. Jews are human, animal, and deserve pig's death. Liberation by any means from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. Quote, Going to shoot up 104 west, the kosher dining Hall. Glory to Hamas. Liberation by any means necessary. That night, I sat in my locked house pondering my mortality. I knew that with my roommates and I being openly Jewish community leaders, our apartment would be one of the first targets for someone looking to actualize the threats. I thought back to the stories my mother told me growing up, how as a young child, I found so much comfort in having the privilege of being protected by a country built on the foundation of equal opportunity and individual liberty. Two days later, I got news that the threats were made by a fellow student. This wasn't far away. It was at the same school. I worked my whole life to get into the school. I invested my family's hard earned life savings to attend the school that promised me they would uphold a community of belonging. Universities have failed to uphold their self proclaimed values of equity and belonging. When it comes to Jewish students, the hypocrisy is glaring in light of horrific antisemitism. Jewish students on campus have been courageous and resilient, but we shouldn't need to be American Jewish students on campus deserve better. Thank you for the opportunity to testify. Thank thank you. Thank you for your brave testimony.

Palestinians' unique refugee agency: aid or hindrance? Download YouTube 2024-02-03 (289) < Previous Next > Did you know that Gigi Hadid is a refugee? Yes, the LA native, multi-millionaire American model is a Palestinian refugee despite never living anywhere near the Middle East. Absurd, right? The reason for that is UNRWA. Now, we have been talking about UNRWA all week, so in case you missed, many countries around the world have stopped giving money to UNRWA as it was discovered that many UNRWA employees celebrated and even took active part in the October 7th massacre. And in general, UNRWA textbooks are filled with hate, violence and calls for terror. Turns out UNRWA is not much of a UN branch, but more of a Hamas branch. But even if you put all that aside, there is still a huge problem with UNRWA. You see, UNRWA is the UN agency that deals with Palestinian refugees. But the UN already has a refugee agency, the UNHCR, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. It deals with all refugees around the world except for Palestinians who have UNRWA. Another agency just for them. Why do Palestinians deserve a special agency? Nobody knows. Do Palestinian refugees deserve more than the 2.6 million who were forced to flee Sudan last year? Well, according to the UN, the answer is yes. See, despite serving 13 times more refugees, the UNHCR has half the number of staff members and money-wise it gives half for each refugee compared to UNRWA. And you know what is the best thing about the UNHCR? It is shrinking. That's good, think about it. The UN has decided that being a refugee is a bad thing. We don't want people to be refugees. We want them to find a home. If they were forced to leave their country, we want them to gain citizenship elsewhere. And that's what the UNHCR is doing. It makes sure its refugees stop being refugees. That's why it's shrinking. The UNHCR helped 22,000 refugees gain citizenship in 2020 alone. That is amazing. That is their purpose. But for UNRWA, it's the other way around. It started with 700,000 refugees and it now stands at 5.6 million. It actually expands. And do you know why? Well, first of all, since forming in 1949, UNRWA has yet to resettle a single refugee. Not a single one. And second of all, UNRWA invented a new definition for its refugees. Under UNRWA, unlike any other refugee around the world, the refugee status is carried out to next generations. Meaning, that if your grandfather left Israel in 1948 and settled in Jordan, where you and your parents were born and gained citizenship and full rights, both you and your parents are still considered Palestinian refugees under UNRWA. That's how Gigi Hadid became a multimillionaire refugee. That's how the number of Palestinian refugees keeps growing, even though millions of them actually have another citizenship. Are you beginning to understand the absurdity of UNRWA? When the goal of all refugees is to stop being refugees, UNRWA does everything in its power to make sure its refugees stay refugees. Not only that, it wants more and more refugees. Because that is how UNRWA gets paid. UNRWA is the largest employer of Palestinians. If they stop being refugees, they will stop needing UNRWA. And UNRWA wants to be needed. That is how it gets paid. And it gets paid a lot. In conclusion, UNRWA has a huge incentive to preserve refugee status. And to be honest, that is the opposite of what we expect from a refugee agency. And do you want to know what UNRWA says about all this? They say that all Palestinians have a right to return to Israel. To all of Israel. Even if they never lived there. You see, according to UNRWA, Gigi Hadid has a right to my home in Tel Aviv, despite the fact that neither she, nor her parents, nor her Dutch grandmother ever lived there. And according to UNRWA, until that happens, until Israel is completely empty of all Jews, until then, all the Palestinians who live in Gaza or the West Bank should not strive to get a new citizenship and rights, but to stay miserable and dependent on UNRWA. So basically, UNRWA's entire existence is based on the premise that Israel should not exist. That's why it teaches every Palestinian kid to hate Jews and to long for martyrdom. That's why it recruits teachers who have connections to Hamas-ISIS. That's why it doesn't help its refugees. Not a single one of them. Folks, UNRWA is not really a refugee agency. It's a political movement with very strong ties to terrorist organizations. Video Transcription: Did you know that Gigi Hadid is a refugee?

It’s not cool to support Israel Download YouTube 2023-10-18 (#001) < Previous Next > For someone growing up in North America, the Middle East has always been considered a complex issue. However, the current situation involving Hamas, which is internationally recognized as a terrorist organization, and their brutal actions targeting families and communities in Israel, is not related to the concept of a free Palestine. This is not a conflict; it represents a stark reality of tearing families apart through murder and the abduction of elderly and children from their homes. These atrocities are reminiscent of horrors not witnessed since the Holocaust, and there is no ambiguity in the necessity to condemn and disseminate the truth about these events. #TikvaInternational" Video Transcription: I know that it's not cool to support Israel I grew up in North America I get it everybody says the middle least conflict is complicated and they're torn but you need to know that there is nothing complicated about the situation right now nothing to be torn up about it's very plain and simple and the truth is that with Kamas which is an internationally recognized terrorist organization the reality of what it means to free Palestine looks like this hords of people brutally massacred and left in body piles like animals entire families no entire communities erased and families torn apart by death children from their parents and parents from their children who were shot directly at gunpoint with their hands tied behind their backs elderly kidnapped from nursing homes children kidnapped out of their beds and taken hostage crying out for their moms and for everything to stop teenage girls their bodies raped and maimed and next to their dead bodies of their friends and then their bodies taken and proudly paraded naked through the streets of Gaza civilians h in in their homes and pretending to be dead for like 24 hours while getting hunted by Kamas stories we haven't heard since the Holocaust look at the videos read the facts and consult your inner moral compass condemn Kamas and weep for this utter desecration of human life you shouldn't be conflicted about the Middle East anymore The Truth is Out share it support Israel

Sky News 💔 Behind the unbelievable numbers, there are people, whose stories ended way too soon. There are also survivors, who wish to realize one thing; How to move forward? Sky News’ data and forensics unit have investigated what happened to Kibbutz Be'eri and has identified more than 80 civilians who died there. It was targeted by Hamas in a widespread attack on 7 October that left 1,200 Israelis dead. Video Transcription: Beeri was actually paradise for us. We lost our homes. Our community was butchered. Beeri, a kibutz in southern Israel, was one of the first places targeted by Hamas in a surprise attack on October 7. Militants broke in, burned town homes, captured hostages, and killed 131 people. Sky News has verified the identities of 118 of them. We are completely heartbroken, completely. It's just one of the many communities targeted that day. More than 10,000 Palestinians have died in the ensuing war. But it started with the attacks on October 7 that led 1200 Israelis dead and hundreds more still held hostage. We don't know whether they're dead or alive. We investigated how the atrocities in Berry unfolded and spoke to residents and victims family members to help tell the story of murder, kidnap, and survival. Berry is about 5 km from the border with Gaza in southern Israel on October 7, at around 07:00 a.m. CCTV camera footage shows two Hamas fighters approaching the front gate of the kibbutz. They can't get past the metal bars at first, but then, as a resident drives up to enter, they ambush the car, killing those inside, and they run into the village. Around the same time, Amit Man, a 22 year old paramedic, was running from the safe room in her home to the local dental clinic, which was used as a first aid post. During the attack. We realized she was running to the clinic even though she was told to stay inside of the safe room. Despite being at the clinic, she was in touch with her sisters on their family WhatsApp group throughout the day. She sent them a message once she arrived, as she began treating the wounded, telling them her Hamas had arrived in town. Basically, she stayed there from 07:00 a.m. Until 02:15 p.m. Amit sent her sisters an audio message as her masked gunmen entered the clinic. This footage shows the aftermath of the fighting. Haviva and Lior wanted Sky News to play the recording that they shared, but a warning, it's distressing to listen to: "Please, make it stop they are here" her sisters managed to call her back before the line dropped. That was the moment that I lost hope. That was the last time that anyone spoke with her. As Hamas fighters moved through the kibbutz, militants entered the home of the GATT family at around 09:30 a.m.. A video posted on social media, verified by Sky News, shows 68 year old Kineret Gatt in a brown shirt being led away by gunmen. Kenneth GaTt's nephew was in Tel Aviv at the time. When he saw the video circulating online, he couldn't believe his eyes. I just sent it to my mother and said, this is Kineret, right? And she said, yeah, of course. And we couldn't believe that what we were seeing was her, but there was no question about it. Another clip, taken shortly after shows her body lying with three others on the ground by the cemetery gate. She was later confirmed dead. Eshel, her husband hid and survived. Other members of the Gatt family are believed to have been taken hostage. Carmel Gatt and Yarden Romen Gatt. Meanwhile, only a few streets away, Sophie Mackie was in the safe room of her house with her young children. CCTV footage shows that the Israeli military were on the scene from approximately 10:00 a.m. But locked in their safe room. Sophie and her kids were unaware for several hours. I just sat there with terrified children, and I actually understood the time going to die. At 06:15 p.m. Israeli military personnel knocked on the door of Sophie's home. They weren't able to rescue us at that time because we were still under fire. The kibutz was still full of terrorists. And so we went together with our neighbors up to their safe room, and we sat there for hours in complete darkness. It wasn't until midnight that Sophie and her family were finally rescued. After hiding in silence for nearly 20 hours, I went into the safe room at 06:30 in the morning, knowing what my world looks like. And I emerged from it almost 20 hours later. And my home was destroyed. There were dead bodies lying everywhere. I couldn't recognize anything. The attack left Berry changed forever. Sophie and her kids survived, but Kineret and Amit were among 131 people who died in Berry. Sky News has verified the identities of 118 of them, including Israeli security personnel. 88 were civilians. Nine were children under the age of 18. The youngest was a nine month old called Mila Cohen. 24 people were age 70 or older. The eldest, an 88 year old woman called Hannah Kritzman. We've also verified 30 civilians who are considered missing or being held as hostages. That's 118 civilians who are in Berry that lost their lives or are believed to be missing or taken as hostages and have been identified by Sky News. Sky News approached the Israeli government and the Israeli military with our findings. Both departments declined to comment. A Hamas representative did not reply to our messages. The military finally claimed back control on October the 9th. Just over one month later, survivors are contemplating how to move forward. Of course we want to go back and rebuild the situation between Israel and Gaza. We can't go back to the way things were. That's not even an option. But time goes by and we are slowly healing from the trauma.
