The Al Jazeera Investigative Unit’s feature documentary GAZA exposes Israeli war crimes through the use of videos and photographs posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves.
Here we present the database that lies behind that film, described by international law expert Rodney Dixon as “a treasure trove you very seldom come across, … something which I think prosecutors will be licking their lips at."
Israeli soldiers have posted videos on Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube showcasing their activities in Gaza, using their own names, often with details of when and where the incidents depicted have taken place. But what may have been intended as bravado has become a damning digital dossier.
Al Jazeera is doing an enormous job for posterity (mostly), and maybe even for the off-chance of any of these monsters getting punished. I’m glad someone is doing it.
This is a lot of strong evidence, but how many of these soldiers will ever face justice?
Very few, which is why it is ethical for Iran to glass the entirety of tel aviv. No settler is innocent
