Sure. We all know that when Israel says militants they mean unarmed children, women and men
Two were confirmed miltants. Problem is that they were there to get medical treatment... Israel could have arrested them and given them a trial, but instead, they chose to shoot them and terrorize and risk the lives of all the patients in the hospital.
Thanks, I saw that, yes. Sorry, I was being cheeky because of the extreme civilian deaths.
No no no, not at all, we have plenty of children Israel killed in the shittiest of ways.
This one has got to be the shittiest I've read in a while: https://english.palinfo.com/news/2024/01/29/313573/
Yesterday:
News from today from AlJazeera's live feed:
BASICALLY: The most pathetic army in the world.
It truly boggles my mind that people are aware of these inhumane atrocities and will still defend Israel tooth and nail. I know a lot are bots but a lot are also defending Israel of their own accord.
I feel like Israel, the US, Australia, most Europen countries, most so called 'first world nations' are responsible and absolutely complicit in dehumanising Palestinian people, and middle eastern people in general, for decades to the point where they can casually say that Israel should continue to ethnically cleanse and slowly genocide the Palestinians to defend themselves. And they will applaud themselves for saying this. In what fucking world does that make any kind of sense?
Also, these countries casually talking about bombing Yemen for example, like it's a natural phenomenon. What fucking right do they have to go to a region far away from their countries', launch attacks at inhabitants of the region, and have the nerve to say they must defend themselves when these people being attacked retaliate.
Imagine what would happen if any other country sailed around the world to the US or any of these other 'first world' nations, started attacking them because it was important to do so for their 'geopolitical interests in the region'.
It shows how utterly despicable and ethically and morally bankrupt all these countries truly are.
Apologies for the the long rant lol, i feel very strongly on this subject.
Hamas killing civilians does not excuse Israel killing civilians or even militants while unarmed and getting treatment.
So please extend your belief of how terrible October 7th was to how terrible all the days after that were.
Criticism of Israel is not support for Hamas.
And surprisingly those sources are IDF and can't be backed up by anyone else, and on top of that all the footage and testimonies we have contradicts your story.
Ps: Hamas had no excuse to kill or kidnap any civilians. Didn't think I had to spell that out to you, I thought it was clear from literally every other comment I made here and anywhere else on lemmy. Also, Israel had no excuse to commit a genocide, destroy infrastructure, do field executions, etc.
Hope bolding it helps you understand the point.
It's the word of Palestinian health professionals vs the IDF.
Guess who's more believable.
Still against IHL lol
A ceasefire, negotiations, the two state solution, paying for all the damage and rebuilding Gaza since they destroyed it, paving the path to peace and finally allowing Palestinians to live with dignity.
We know that violence just further radicalizes people. The Hydra effect means that for every Hamas fighter kill, new ones emerge as long as the occupation and dehumanization continues.
With love,
-- Your Occupier of 75 years who had killed your whole family and destroyed all infrastructure
Still against IHL. sorry man 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Aigth, I'm now reporting you for trolling because nothing you're saying makes sense since the rule had an initial ruling that shows that genocide is plausible.
“Whataboutism or whataboutery (as in "what about…?") is a pejorative for the strategy of responding to an accusation with a counter-accusation instead of a defense of the original accusation.”

TIL the whole thing started on October 7th. You must be very smart.
every single time.
