Still asking for proof to back up your statement "cut out childrens' eyes in front of their parents and rape women to death with metal rods"
Or are you generalizing disinformation.
The same exaggeration used atm to collectively starve and bomb an entire population.
Anyway this thread is about the terrorist attack in Lebanon, causing mass casualties and horrific injuries.

At least 37 people were killed in those attacks, including two children. Thousands were maimed, and doctors are still treating the wounded.
It's a real nightmare, because most of the injuries, most of the casualties - they lost either one of their eyes or both eyes sometimes. And the facial injuries are really massive because of the explosion of whatever devices they were holding in their hands. We couldn't save much of the eyes. And in some cases, we had even to remove both eyes of the patients because the damage was so great. I mean, you cannot even resuture the eye.
the first day, we left the operating room around 5 in the morning, and the second day, we left at around 2 in the morning. So it has been hectic for the past two or three days. And most of the casualties, they are young people. They are in their 20s. All of the casualties, we requested to do a CT scan for the brain and the orbits, because some of the patients, they had intracranial shrapnel. They had some injuries to the brain, so they had to be operated by neurosurgeons, and then we went in as an ophthalmology team just to treat their eyes. But the - unfortunately, I mean, there is not a single casualty who didn't lose at least one eye.

Khadra told Agence France-Presse (AFP) that Hotel-Dieu, located in the Lebanese capital's Christian-majority Ashrafieh district, treated about 80 injured. Around 20 "were admitted to intensive care immediately and were put on ventilators to ensure they wouldn't suffocate due to the swelling in their faces," she said. "The rest are going one after the other to the operating room. Today, we have 55 surgeries," she added, wearing her white doctor's coat over her blue scrubs. A doctor at another hospital in Beirut said he worked all night and that the injuries were "out of this world – never seen anything like it." "It's beyond what can be described," he said, requesting anonymity because he was not authorized by the hospital to speak to the media. "We have a lot of injuries with amputated fingers" because people were holding the pagers in one or both hands, he said, while some people who had been sitting on the floor also had wounded feet. But the "most devastating" wounds were when the pagers blew up in people's faces, he said, citing up to 40 patients with eye injuries, most of them severe. Around three-quarters of those patients "lost one eye completely, and the other eye is either somewhat salvageable or barely salvageable", he said, while "15 to 20%... lost both eyes in a way that's irreparable."
Hence you see why I have a problem with "cut out childrens' eyes in front of their parents ..... as seemingly an excuse why this terrorist attack is 'deserved' or expected or an "SNL skit"
