After Israel commenced what it calls an "expanded ground operation" in the Gaza Strip yesterday, daylight is showing the horrifying results. Social media is ablaze with information and video. "Body parts are everywhere" from the air strikes.
We begin with 21 brief seconds of "Before and After" video showing vast, entire neighborhoods of Gaza, obliterated by Israeli air strikes:

Israel claims they are "attacking Hamas." Yet upwards of 100,000 housing units have been destroyed. Is the world to believe there were that many "Hamas" targets? Or would it be more appropriate to call this what it actually is: "Forced displacement?"
David Icke sums it up succinctly: "One giant Satanic sacrifice."
Amazing how they claim the intel to target Hamas operatives, but had no idea the attack on Israel was -- planned. It was ALLOWED to happen. Israeli civilians sacrificed and now Gaza civilians sacrificed. It is one mass Satanic sacrifice as all 'wars' are.https://t.co/Ow6aE239Uq

According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, the Palestinian death toll from Israeli attacks in Gaza climbs to 7,703, including 3,595 children; 19,734 others injured: Health Ministry. But it is very early and there are countless more people buried in rubble. These numbers are likely to skyrocket.
The air strikes are continuing this morning, Saturday, 28 October 2023.

Also this morning, a Statement from Palestinian Islamic Jihad, one of the combatants:
"The Israeli forces received painful strikes last night from our fighters present at the points of advance on the outskirts of eastern Gaza.
The enemy’s display of firepower enabled their forces to advance only a limited number of meters, not exceeding 100 metres, and they erected dirt barriers to protect their soldiers from the strikes of our fighters.
The enemy forces that tried to advance at some points east of Gaza retreated back under fire and clashed with our fighters in the field.
The enemy’s exaggeration of the ground incursion into the Gaza Strip comes within the framework of its bankruptcy of achieving any image of victory in front of its internal front; it is a lie that the enemy constantly peddles."
UPDATE 10:00 AM EDT --
The map below accurately reflects yesterday's action by the IDF as it made entry into the Gaza Strip:
-- Gaza Civil Defense official says that 'hundreds of buildings and houses were completely destroyed' overnight.
UPDATE 3:26 PM EDT --
The sounds of fierce fighting coming from the Gaza Strip have been unrelenting for hours — a mix of artillery fire and tanks and airstrikes. But with the phone and internet service out in the Gaza Strip, it is impossible to know exactly what is happening there.
Some information __is__ getting out.
-- Turkiye' President Erdogan tells Palestinians "Our Muhammadan army will come one night by surprise to support the people of Gaza."
-- Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu says "the second stage of war has begun."
-- SHOCK: Israelis in Tel Aviv take to the streets calling for an end to the bombing of the Gaza Strip Thousands of protesters fear that Israeli aggression could lead to the destruction of the state.
-- Carrier-based AMERICAN Aircraft over Gaza Strip!

-- With Internet CUT in all of Gaza, Elon Musk said he will turn on his STARLINK system, only to registered and recognized RELIEF ORGANIZATIONS, to restore their Internet access. IN RESPONSE, Israel's Minister of Communications says the country will immediately SEVER ALL TIES with STARLINK. He then went further: "We will use available means to prevent Elon Musk from providing relief organizations in Gaza with the Internet."
(HT REMARK: Why does Israel want to halt the flow of information about what's going on in Gaza? War crimes, maybe?)
-- A near total communications blackout has impacted the work of medical staff in Gaza, with paramedics unable to reach the injured and hospitals unable to contact each other.

This is necessary because this is a CLOUD-BASED web site. The way it works is YOU READ . . . I GET BILLED for "Data Transfer." Despite being politely asked for voluntary donations, few people ever bothered to donate. Then, despite being asked to click an ad within a story to generate ad revenue for this site, the majority of the general public couldn't be bothered with that, either. So there's no reason to give the general public free news anymore; they don't pull their own weight. With tens-of-thousands of people reading stories here every day, the costs nearly drove the site out of business. In order to be able to continue providing cutting-edge news, often hours or even DAYS before Drudge and most of the "mass-media" -- if they even cover it at all -- I need to be able to sustain this effort. To do that, I rely on folks like YOU contributing a pittance of about $1 a week; which is chump-change that you won't even miss! Yet that small amount makes all the difference in the world to the continued existence of this web site. In the final analysis, knowledge is power.
