#Israel #Gaza #Hamas
I stand with Israel, but this is highly disturbing.
To the genius who wrote this title, are they searching for hostages? Be the free journalist you’re supposed to be!
Oh my God if you exist I asked you please stop this the Israelis have gone too far
How do you start something and then get mad when people are going to finish it.
You mean like an illegal occupation? Also, it was Mileikowski (aka “Netanyahu”) who started Hamas over years of financial support.
Maybe dont fire rockets from places you dont want destroyed
Glad there’s people like you to really question the narrative…good thing israel can’t say and do whatever they want cuz there’s people who question it…not losers like you…right?
Maybe all Jews should be repatriated to their ancestral homeland, so that the rest of humanity can be safe
woow i foundd? genocide defender? maybe isreal should stop expanding settlement in wesbank if they love botray themselves as peace loving nation 😂
So first it was looking hostages, now it’s weapons? At least read from the same script. Don’t they bomb places hamas fire rockets from?
When power is allowed to run unchecked, this is the results. Let it sink in, America. Red or Blue, is this Truly what our country is about these days?
Israel is unbelievably inhuman.
Israel is doing everything in their power to look like the bad guy.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes Hamas 🎉
Play stupid games win stupid prizes Hamas 🎉 🇵🇷🇺🇲🇮🇱
Hamas brought this upon the Palestinians. Where is Yahya Sinwar? Where are the rest of the hostages? Hamas surrendered yet? All this could have ended if the 3 conditions have been met. Hamas wanted war, then like Burger King “have it your way..!”
Netanyahu funded the creation of Hamas. This is well documented.
They acted as they did because they are descendants of Pharaoh, and these descendants are worse than demons!
Palestinians still don’t get it. Nothing is off limits after what you did. Nothing.
same as isreal
Clearly not gen-o-cide! Don’t forget Netanyahu funded Hamas and let Oct 7th happen. Hannibal directive anyone?
No respect 😔 this is what humanity whats destruction of everything well then you can Have your destruction n you will have no place to call home no family to talk to no food to eat to eat no clean water to Drink no Planet to live on is that what you what just sone one te ll me and ill make it happen do you not wish to prosper flourish as god had intended you let those dark ones change you n controller you look with in your selfs the higher better you is in there let go of your hate i beg you
We can do what we like……We were chosen by god……….said some very ancient parchments,written by them !!!!!!
Besides shouting Israel ,do peace a priority
Israel army do not respect the death. This is disgusting
Palestinian 🇵🇸 horrific story only gets reported for 1:38 seconds. Israel 🇮🇱 controls the entire United States.
Philosophical question, what’s worse, not respecting the dead, or not respecting the living? For both sides of the conflict.
What did dead do to living?
Hamas using human remains as human shields as well 🤨
Who thinks these people are moral still?
This cannot be justifiable by any sane person of conscience.
But yet, hamas doesn’t return the hostages and surrender
Pure Evil 😈 no surprises here we are dealing with Racist, Apartied,murderers regime of Isreal.
They dont care about that hamas has hostages that passed on they still keep in their houses i worry more for the living
US israel terroris
BS…they destroyed the Graves just for the sake of it. Am I surprised, not really.
They need to look for the hostages. Unfortunately this is what it comes down to. Poor Israel.
Everyone in this situation is wrong and both sides could have avoided this. Ask yourself, if this was happening to you would Israelis or Palestinians care? The answer is no. There are so many horrible things happening in the world right now but this was is what is on the headlines so people feel like they need to show how moral and justified they are. Its pathetic.
First they didn’t let them live in peace and not there not letting them rest in peace😢
The whole world would be much better without Islam
What a criminal state! How evil is this Israel!
Israel is the nation that will not be blamed for nothing.
The whole world must condemn Israel and the genocide they are committing in Palestine! Stand-up and be on the right side of history!
Free the hostages
This people has a weird problem. I’ve saw holocaust documentary…never thaught it could be worser…and yes we all can see it.
looking for hostages from graves how did you even knew this massive graves buried more than 10000 people u can find
and identify few people from them? does h-m@§ informed you its disgusting how this media entertaining idf propaganda even when its clear how this sane soldeirs behaving
If someone believes that, then I seriously doubt their conscience and intellect are sound. Utterly disgusting and shamelessly dishonest justifcation for an unjustifiable act.
Disgusting, shame on Israel and the IDF, #FreePalestine
Since this war started am not in support of any side . Hamas attacked killed and took innocent civilians with them , their crime being Israel nationals, Israel army retaliated in the name of finding hostages ave never seen a case where you are finding hostage and bombing innocent civilians but anyhow even those killed in Israel are human. When in the process of finding hostages the army revealed the atrocities hamas have been doing, eg what was the explosive devices , firearms doing in hospitals, why are children taught how to use firearms in schools, what are the tunnels doing in schools and hospitals? Tunnels a house that is understandable can be for security in case of war you hide there. Why are hamas going to war wearing like civilians? That is causing Gaza people to suffer! Now destroying graves is uncalled for disturbing the dead ! If a grave is fresh if fine open it then cover it and let the person continue resting.
If there will be further hatred between the small children of Gaza and Israel who are witnessing this war we will blame it on Sinwar and Benjami Netanyahu . I don’t think the enemity will ever end
Israel.shame on you.
Why?
They don’t care about shame
Use your Intelligece to get hamas ..this is in human?
Bay this TIME HAMANIS DON’T know if they’re COMING OR GOING??? AXAXAXAXAXA….
thses guys got no right to say nothinn, they got no respect for life and our dead hostages are more important then their dead and alive terrorist..
Well war happens.
NBC=Hamas
Population pollution is the biggest contributor to all other pollutions Gaza 3x population in 10yrs
The terrorist IDF has so much hate in them. The Israelis are really showing their true colors to the whole world, and finally the world is somewhat responding
Hamas should try 1 not shooting from graveyards and 2 not burying our hostages instead of sending them back to their grieving families in Israel. You are all so easily deceived by them!
Just horrific story. Thank you for sharing.
How are the Israeli citizens okay with their gov’t doing this? I’m not even okay with my gov’t paying for it. Disgusting.
🤭🇵🇸✌️🌍🌏🌎⛅🌝🌞
Thats one of the israeli ways of fighting wars – attacking graves. They are invincible against graves, have zero chance of casualties (except when they often stumble around) and easy to hide when they get scared of ghosts.
Israel has become its own worst enemy. They are carrying out countless war crimes, crimes against humanity, ethnic cleansing and genocide. Israel has gone mad, they are a rogue state that needs to be held to account. Their behaviors are monstrous and indefensible. Israels actions are repugnant and revolting and an attack to human decency.
This isn’t what exhuming a grave for forensic evidence looks like. This is desecration of the dead, just part of the Nakba and the erasure of Gaza.
So you say…the d3secration started on Oct 7 when HAMAS islamic terrorists invaded Israel.
They are really mad!
This is incredible !! I have never seen so much hatred and malice against helpless people in my life !!!! 🤢🥶
Me neither. This is history.We will tell our granchildren what we witnessed.
Genghis Khan didn’t do this.
Helpless? Hamas?
All the attacks by Hamas, the PLO on Israelis, Jordanians, Lebanese…Civil war caused by the PLO in Lebanaon, civil war caused by the PLO in Jordan, countless PLO, Hamas attacks over the decades by Palestinians, following the Gulf war in 1991, Kuwait expelled over 300,000 Palestinians for supporting the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. Egypt,s anti terrorist brigade was formed back in the ’80s to deal with Palestinian terrorists…even if the whole of Israel was taken over by the Palestinians, they would then attack Jordan, Lebanon and Syria to add them to their state.
they are looking for their love ones not destroying cementry
Do what you have to do to return all Jews to their families!
Thank you NBC for showing this. More balanced reporting of the Gaza War is badly needed.
You know thats a lie
NBC another fake news media, imagine the framing of this post, “searching for hostages” they say 😂 evil media, I guess hostages are kept with the dead too🤷🏽 well some gullible people will still listen to your BS.
The dead dont know their graves have been disturbed.
Criminal!
Aveti suflet si constiinta? Voi santeti “poporul ales”? Am Mari dubii.
They were searching for hostages in graves??? And you are a news channel???… can’t ask you to have some dignity for humanlive when you don’t even respect the dead in their final resting place.
Im shocked never knew they can reach a stage so barbaric..shocking!!🙉
This is terrible
**these are Criminals from Moses time. Hostages Buried, Cemetry military post? What a liar!**
**00, 000 year old Jewish cemetries exist today in Iran, pakistan afghan, uzkebistan, turkiye. No one Disturbs dead. Only most Garbage worst people, who have lost their right to exist do this crime**
Hamas doesn’t respect the living!
Hamas hide everywhere, in hospitals, under refugee camps, in schools with babies and girls? Whats to say they aren’t in a graveyard? Two tombstones the size of a tunnel entrance, weapons hidden, hostages? Its very sad they feel the need to desecrate a cemetery. Sad times .
Israel doing a holocaust of their own
Свободы Палестины🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🙏🙏😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🇷🇺
“IDF desecrates Palestinian graveyards”
There! I fixed the title for you. You have no idea of the motivations and, as you have proven through your own reporting, the IDF has already lied to you dozens of times. Why would you continue to quote them? It makes no sense to me as there is absolutely no justification. I’ve lost all trust in your journalistic judgment 🤦🏾♀️
Does anyone really believe this? It’s part of the genocide campaign from the Zionists.
Respect the dead? Hamas is trying to sell a dead hostage’s head. They f’ed around, and now they are finding out.
There’s no justification. This is disgusting. Yet the administration won’t say a word. If this was Russia that did this they would say it’s a war crime. The sheer hypocrisy of america is astounding.
Thats how Israel is determined to search for their beloved dead or alive just to bring them home.Even if it means ti search them in cemeteries…
Plastilin State= Iran’s Global Domination Playbook.
😂😂😂😂
What a pity it is for civilians who are not involved, only Hamas, which Israel has confirmed as terrorists, hopes that Israel will not attack Palestinian civilians
Quote frankly, Im sick and tired of the attitudes of western media…and I live here.
Israel is trying to find buried hostages that have died. If Islam had any honor…which i see none…they would be reporting this information.
Unfortunately, a time is upon Israel where the darkness will try to smuther the Light shining out of His people.
That is what I see. The Messiah will return…and the fulfillment of all things foretold will be accomplished.
Blessings…🙏🇮🇱💯❤️🇺🇸
Searching for hostages at cemetery, what a stupid propaganda?
🇮🇩🇮🇩❤🇵🇸🇵🇸☝
Common people of Gaza don’t even have enough electricity and cooking oil, but unexpectedly they can able to have a lot of Huawei mobile, therefore the Hamas and Dog Communist must be of bad people to be acting in collusion with one another
Bu tamamen insanlıktan uzak bunu hayvan yapmaz ölülere bile vermiyorlar mezarlıkları tarumar eden canavar kasap ordusu ölülerdendemi bu kadar korkuyorsunuz onlar kalkıp yapamaz ama öteki dünyaya vardığınızda işte ozaman yandınız o zaman hesaplar açılacak ve boşyere canavarlik yaptığınızı ve cehennem ateşinden bir şey kazanamadığınızı göreceksiniz zalimler için yaşasın cehennem israil için yaşasın cehennem
Now the brave ‘Diaper’ force scared of dead people!
🇯🇴🇯🇴🇯🇴🇯🇴💪🇵🇸🇪🇬🤲
Hamas is definitely not above hiding dead hostages in a grave yard without telling anyone.
Any regime in any nation that does this doesn’t last as it doesn’t represent their citizens, this is as bad as genocide of babies bombing hospital, sad.
If only they had invented radar scanning imaging, so they wouldn’t look like colonists preparing to be occupiers of homes, as not even the dead can Rest In Peace, sad.
Nice to know who the US is backing.
What is worst about this is that NBC is excusing Isreali actions by restating the Isreali lie that the discretion was to look for hostages. Another attempt to deceive the public
Russia should take in all the Palestinian people. They invented them.
The most dangerous beasts that are roaming around the world said the USS Liberty survivors
Today they are weak one day they will be strong so no one blame them for what they do
Je zou vergeten dat ze kinderen vermoorden . Als het maar begraafplaatsen zijn
Thats how a tank makes a 3 point turn lol
There is no such thing as a “justified genocide”.
