They should have gone into gaza and tried to only kill people who shot back at them yeah. I do not care if they get ambushed and die, that is far better than a newborn in Gaza getting vaporized by a JDAM along with their entire family because Israel lied about Hamas being in their house.
Oh, I understand. You’re saying that Israel is lying that Hamas is inside the innocent’s homes?
Regardless, fighting terrorists in tight urban environments with civilians will always fail. The US couldn’t handle it despite almost 20 years of trying, and Israel will definitely be unable to. This leaves a difficult problem, Hamas needs to be destroyed, but Hamas doesn’t care about rules of engagement and likes to nestle themselves in high-civilian populations.
What is your solution here? Israel told all civilians to flee south and notified places that they are about to bomb (Though 5-20 minutes isn’t much of a warning to get all of your possessions and get 10km’s away.)
You’re saying that Israel is lying that Hamas is inside the innocent’s homes?
Yes, and until they provide evidence for every single building that they bombed in Gaza and Lebanon and the west bank, I will continue to think so.
Hamas needs to be destroyed
Sure, and the way to do that is to undermine their support by a) not bombing innocents in gaza and b) withdrawing settlements in the west bank to show Palestinians that the PA is the path to freedom, not hamas. Not radicalizing people is how you get rid of radical terrorist groups.
If Israel really wants the military solution, they can throw soldiers at urban combat, but it’s probably the 2nd worst solution. Or maybe the 1st, considering how Israeli troops have a track record of deliberately targeting civilians, including children medics and journalists.
Israel told all civilians to flee south and notify places that they are about to bomb
There are so many things wrong with this. Warning about committing war crimes doesn’t make them ok. They also stopped doing roof knocks, so no more warning. Regardless, Israel continues to bomb the south, they’re bombing everywhere. They’re even bombing ambulances.
Yes, and until they provide evidence for every single building that they bombed in Gaza and Lebanon and the west bank, I will continue to think so.
Well, I like to think neutrally since you only have their word to take for granted. Or you can take Hamas’ word. But considering Israel is under scrutiny by the world stage, I think their word is more reputable.

As does Hamas.
Warning about committing war crimes doesn’t make them ok.
Oooh, now you care about war crimes? Where were you when Hamas were performing war crimes?
Well I like to think neutrally since you only have their word to take for granted.
No I’m gonna think they lied, cause I don’t think there is any way that Israel would have survived if half of the people in Gaza (1 million) were hamas militants or suppliers.
And what is Israel to do while Hamas gathers forces and continues to attack?
Tighten the border like they fucking should have done when they got intel that hamas was planning something. Don’t let em through and they won’t kill civilians.
Oooh, now you care about war crimes? Where were you when Hamas were performing war crimes?
I dislike war crimes yeah. I also think that it is a waste of time to condemn Nat Turner’s crimes, or the ANC’s crimes, or Algeria’s crimes. Revolutions are violent, innocent people die, horrific crimes are committed. But you don’t condemn the revolutionaries, you condemn the oppressor for forcing them to turn to these awful means.
Well alright. I prefer to go by information, personally.

Heeey, wait a moment, earlier you were against Israeli Settlements in the West Bank (Which may I remind you, Israeli claims that the settlements are for security), and then you want to strengthen the border around Gaza? How do you expect them to strengthen it? Put turrets on all the walls? Armed squads? That’s an entire border, an insane amount of resources compared to the checkpoint system that they use in the West Bank.
But you don’t condemn the revolutionaries, you condemn the oppressor for forcing them to turn to these awful means.
But that’s how Israel came to be. Palestine and the Arab League had wars about this and lost to Israeli forces.
Well alright. I prefer to go by information, personally.
Ok, that’s fine. Israel is still commiting horrific war crimes based on information, but the extent is what is in question.
Israeli Settlements in the West Bank
Settler colonialism is a cancer and should be eradicated from this planet. It is illegal by international law. Israel can claim they are for whatever it wants, it is still settler colonialism. If you can defend Israel’s actions in the west bank, I don’t think this discussion is going to be productive.
That’s an entire border, an insane amount of resources
Sucks to suck. Israel has billions of dollars of funding annually and mandatory conscription. They can step the fuck up and protect their own civilians without committing war crimes.
But that’s how Israel came to be. Palestine and the Arab League had wars about this and lost to Israeli
Israel came to be through colonialism. Thus any action against them is revolutionary. Just because Israel crushed the revolutionary action doesn’t make Israel the revolutionary force.
Do you have a reputable source?
The source is the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, which is part of the International Red Cross. CNN is simply restating it.

You don’t, but I’m pretty sure you’ll understand that they do
Are you saying Hamas didn’t attack Israel in the massacres?
…no? they did, that’s universally undisputed. even hamas would say that.
