Less than a week after Hamas launched attacks inside Israel, large swaths of Gaza look like Dresden in World War 2.

Israel is responding to the atrocities unleashed by Hamas by razing entire neighborhoods with around-the-clock aerial bombardment, enforcing a total siege on Gaza (no food, no water, no electricity, no fuel) and preventing civilians from fleeing the area.

Israel is clearly committing war crimes with the indiscriminate bombing of civilian neighborhoods and collective punishment of the civilian population in Gaza.

This is just the beginning. Israel’s ground operation has not even started.

While Israel has been committing atrocities against Palestinians for decades, the flagrancy and ferocity of this looks different than what we have seen in the past.

Where is this headed?
