I'm fairly certain you haven't read the haaretz article. Otherwise your comment is inexplicable.

The article cites no evidence except for anonymous accounts. There's no video evidence even though people would widely have smart phones there. The association distributing aid as well as Israel's government have denied any of this happened.

I'd be upset if this happened too, but there's no evidence of that. My guess is that warning shots were fired.

Did I miss something from the article? I did read it.

They have a right to take out Hamas, they don't have the right to mow down crowds of starving people with sub-machine guns while they're just trying to get to some food

Your comment puts you firmly in pro-israel camp by today's western standards.

There's no disagreement about contents of the article being a war crime, if it is true.

Haaretz is not a reliable source, they often publish hearsay and seldom verify the testimonies. We have reports of seemingly daily massacres around food distribution sites mostly originating from one single "journalist" with direct self described sympathy towards Hamas and source always being "locals told me", yet somehow it ends up being published in Reuters et all on a semi-daily basis.
