Israel's record of shame: a long, chronological list of all the barbaric war crimes Israel is committing—updated weekly.
(shocking and shamefully, nowhere near exhaustive.)
foreword from the author
Hello spectators, this is a document I’ve been working on a long time but it’s not an easy one. I don’t mean to say that Israel is not providing the world with more than enough war crimes to write about but because it’s mentally taxing for me to go through so much distressing content. Nonetheless, as an Irishman, I feel a particularly strong calling to help the Palestinian and more recently, Lebanese people in any way I can. We know subjugation, we know the evils of unbridled colonialism and we know the struggle against all odds for liberty and justice. For that reason, I decided to start making a long record of as many barbaric crimes from the rogue state as I see. This list is not exhaustive, how could it ever be? I am just one person. The purpose is to share it with troglodytes online who wilfully choose to ignore or even participate in Israel’s bloody genocide and maybe refer to it when the time comes that people like Netanyahu and his supporters are on trial for war crimes.
the spectacle is free to read. But it’s growing faster than I ever imagined and has now become a full-time job—researching, verifying, and writing multiple high-quality editorials each week takes time. That means, this magazine is 100% reader-funded, and I rely on the kindness of readers like you to keep it going. So if you’d like to help me keep the magazine going, consider buying me a shawarma sandwich for just $3 by clicking below. As a young and new writer, your support makes more of a difference than you might think.
(I know that not everyone is in the financial position to be able to make donations to the creators that they appreciate. I’ve been there. So if you can’t then just know that you can support me by reading my work, commenting and sharing. Thank you for being here.)
(Warning: this article has real scenes of Palestinians and Lebanese people suffering because of inaction from people like us and allowing Israel to continue in its murder. Maybe you’re too sensitive for that but I advise opening your eyes and reading and doing something about it instead of burying your head in the sand. We can end this.)
okay let’s get started:
(this record is in reverse chronological order to show the most recent crimes first.)

September 30th, 2000
On this day 24 years ago, the world watched, helplessly, as Jamal al-Durrah tried to protect his 12-year-old son Muhammad from Israeli bullets that rained down on them in Gaza for forty minutes. Despite pleas, Israeli soldiers intentionally shot Muhammad in the stomach, whose final moments of fear and horror were caught on camera and streamed by France TV.
They injured his father who went on through life until this year and Israel’s most recent ethnic cleansing attempt where he was killed by Israeli bombing. Rest in peace, Jamal.
