“No one is looking at us or the extent of this disaster or the crimes that we are experiencing in Gaza,” he said. Still holding his microphone, he slid off his flak jacket marked with the word PRESS and unstrapped his helmet.
“These protection jackets and helmets don’t protect us,” he said, flinging the equipment to the ground. “Nothing protects journalists. … We lose our lives for no reason.”
How do you know who is Hamas and who is a civilian? It’s not like Hamas honorably sticks to identifiable uniforms in this war they started
The war has been going on since long before October.
That’s pretty clearly not true

1948-2023

7 October to present
You said there wasn’t a outstanding conflict going on before October. “That’s pretty clearly not true”
I provided you counter examples. Now you have evidence of the conflict activity before October.
Uhh, no. I said Hamas started this war. Which they did. On 7 Oct. Before then, there was no war. Now, there’s war. Idk what you want
I want you to understand that there are people in this conflict that see a continuation of violence since 1948 and that the situation was not “at peace” before october
This guy’s understanding of this conflict was clearly just what he gleaned from watching an hour of CNN last week. It’s not worth the effort.
And I want you to see that the situation was relatively stable and peaceful on 6 Oct before Hamas started this war
Do you know Newton’s third law? If you don’t, make yourself a favour and google it
If you insist.
You’re right, so let’s just declare everyone in Gaza Hamas and bomb everyone. Right? Isn’t that Israel’s current policy?
Hey, why don’t we speed things up and nuke the area. Wouldn’t that be more efficient?
Killing civilian children is not an appropriate response to terrorism.
And what, according to you, is the best response Israel could make to an unending string of terrorism?
What unending string of terrorism? Before Oct 7, when was the last Israeli killed or injured by Hamas?
But to answer your question, the best response is securing the boarder and asking yourself “what could be the motivation for these attacks?”. It’s to try and seek/broker peace.
I’d suggest reading up on the IRA and the good Friday agreement to see how a government can end an unending string of terrorism. A relentless show of force is how the US created ISIS. That’s what Israel is doing right now.
https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties - who’s the terrorist now? ELI5 the numbers of this article. I am really curious how you will justify them!
Apparently letting in the terrorists. They took the usa Democrat course in securing borders
Imagine how embarrassed this guy is to have you agreeing with him. I love it.
If they filter through the border they can’t be armed. It’d be pretty easy to take away all their arms if no one was left to guard their tunnels.
Yes, and then they hide and bide time preparing for an attack without having to cross over the border.
Too bad Israel never built the wall like murica did.
to fence in a tiny bit of land? no, far easier to subsume it.
Just mask off for you today, huh?
it’s really obvious:
in a tunnel underground? terrorist
shooting Israeli’s? terrorist
not getting the fuck out of an active war zone and pretending to be a civilian? terrorist
Should all of Ukraine abandon their land because Russia declared their land an active war zone?
If someone invades your country do you not have the right to fight back? You’re basically saying, leave or die. How does this logic not apply to the attacks of oct. 7th? Not defending said attacks, just pointing out how utterly brainless your statement is. It also sounds like approval of genocide.
