‘Entire family gone’: Israel kills 250 Palestinians in 24 hours - Lemmy.World

I see ads in TV that are pro Isreal now with Santa crying because of Hamas kidnapped people. I know it’s what about ism but not really moral high ground here when IDF literally wipes whole familes.

They literally knew this was coming and attacked Israel anyway. They knew because the response was harsh and disproportionate last time and ten times prior to that. Blood is on both sides’ hands. Hamas hiding behind civilians is not helping either.

I also understand their desire to fight oppression, but it’s obvious they can’t and will never be able to win war of any kind. Their fight must be done through different means.

Bomb Hamas until you can see China through the crater, I really don’t care. But most people living in Gaza did not choose this and are just caught in the middle.

I imagine you would not be happy if your whole apartment building (your family inside) was bombed because your neighbor assaulted an officer.

That’s my point, although not as cleanly stated. To me this whole thing is Hamas kicking hornets nest then running away and hiding while civilians get stung. And this repeats every few years. And no point has anyone sat down and thought: wait maybe this is a bad idea.

Yeah, they are terrorists. They don’t care about civilians. Big surprise.

The concerning thing is that Israel and US don’t seem to care about them either.

The thing with terrorism is the moment you show weakness they will keep exploiting that and repeating what works.

True, but how you show strength to counter that matters, especially to the civilians caught in the middle.

You don’t fight terrorism with bombs though. You fight it by humanizing their victims, using police raids by high level units capable of reducing collateral damage, and fulfilling the needs of the population that feels oppressed enough to create terrorists.
They are political party of Gaza. That’s why the recent ceasefire condition was for Hamas to leave Gaza
