Gaza has changed the West forever. It has demonstrated its dearth of a conscience. Its hypocrisy. Its sadism. And we will never fully recover from bearing witness to an unthinkable crime to which our leaders gave their full stamp of approval.

<div class="content">
<div class="field field-field-text"><p>A senior Hamas representative said on Tuesday that fewer than 1 percent of all the Palestinians killed by Israel in Gaza since the ceasefire came into effect have been actual fighters.</p>
<p>Ghazi Hamad said in video remarks that only 10 Palestinian fighters from across all factions are known to have been killed among the nearly 400 casualties since 10 October of this year. </p>
<p>Producing a map of the Israeli-controlled territory in Gaza, Hamad said Israel has been killing civilians well beyond Israel's "yellow line" boundaries on Gaza's eastern and southern borders. </p>
<p>He added that the mediators - Qatar and Egypt - can attest to Hamas not having incurred a single ceasefire violation in that time.</p>
<p>Israel has also yet to produce any evidence to back up its allegations of Hamas' ceasefire violations, Hamad said.</p>
