alphacyberrangerGerman-Israeli Shani Louk is confirmed dead, 3 weeks after Hamas captured her and paraded her through Gaza
TheBananaKingSo are 3000 Palestinian children.
Same children whose shoulders Hamas used to prop up their guns while firing as Israeli soldiers?
No, the ones bombed by the IDF.
Has anyone on Lemmy ever read about Hamas before a month ago? Hiding bombs and murderers behind children is what the world knows of them. It’s fact. Cute watching you all catching up on the conflict in 15 minutes.
Yea these people are so confused in their own stupidity they end up being pro-terrorist.
terrorist isn’t a good word to describe what’s going on here. Basically the only distinguishing criteria between murder and not murder is self defense. Murder is defined as the act of killing someone NOT in self defense. Is it self defense when Hamas kills and kidnaps civilians? Is it self defense when Israel bombs an area with the high potential for civilian deaths?
Is it self defense when Hamas kills and kidnaps civilians?
No.
Is it self defense when Israel bombs an area with the high potential for civilian deaths?
Yes.
Happy to help.
tocopherolHow many people defending Israel now have read about their funding and support for Hamas? Netenyahu’s government supports the most extreme of the militant groups within Gaza purposely to keep Palestine divided. Even his supporters are aware of and critique this fact.
is there further reading on this? I know in the past Israel sent material to Hamas (Governor’s of Gaza) in attempts to curtail rocket attacks
Here is one op-ed article from the Times of Israel about the topic: For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces
Washington Post article from 2014: How Israel Helped Create Hamas
Thank you for the articles
Whataboutism. My comment did nothing of the sort
Hiding bombs and murderers behind children is what the world knows of them. It’s fact.
Really cuz I’ve been asking for evidence for 3 weeks and nobody has bothered to link even a single source with 3rd party confirmation.
proleYeah the “Hamas using kids as human shields” thing has been tried and true IDF propaganda for years.
Hamas operations in Gaza aren’t taking place from military sites, because THEY DO NOT EXIST. Israel will not allow them, because why the fuck would they??
Gaza is an open air prison that is incredibly densely populated. With no area ever possibly being cordoned off for military actions, where would one recommend they do these things from? You live in a prison, you work with that you have.
They’re not using human shields, they’re just launching their attacks from the only options that exist to them.
goatA prison of their own making, mind you.
Are you saying that Israel, the occupying, is not responsible for the suffering of the country they occupied?
