If they put Palestinians in the line of fire, guess what Israel should do?

Not fire.

If they do, then it is a war crime.

This isn't Hollywood logic.

And Israel doesn't fire when they see palestinians...they usher them safely out of the war zone...they also agreed to a daily 4 hour pauses....what has Hamas done so far other than firing rockets?

Terrorism is targeting civilians.
Either you're against terrorism or you support it.

And you refuse to call out settler terrorism.
Which makes you a terrorist supporter.

Join me in calling for all those accused of terrorism or targeting civilians to be investigated for all allegations.
Stop being a terrorist supporter.
I've been calling for Hamas to stop firing rockets...for the sake of the palestinians...a lot of people do...it's falling on deaf ears...you justify Oct 7...you definitely support terrorism...you can twist words, post tweets....at the end of the day...you support Hamas...you celebrate their attacks...then YOU are the terrorist supporters...not a single post I said call for genocide or killing civilians...Why hasn't Hamas released hostages yet? hostages are civilians yes? Why do they keep firing rockets if people are callilng for ceasefire?

Hamas is not dropping the bombs or withholding food and water.
A few other things that Hamas is not doing.

Hamas is not providing shelter.
Hamas is not providing fuel.
Hamas is not allowing Gazans to move around freely.
Hamas is not distributing the humanitarian aid and money to the Gazans but keeping it for them selves.
Hamas is not allowing people to speak out against Hamas. They jail them or worse.
Hamas is not allowing elections.

You are one sided, rich.

You refuse to support both sides being investigated and called out for targeting civilians.
You refuse to call out crap like this.

The debate is about whether or not you support genocide, shack.
Have you become the new Nazis or not?

Apartheid has existed for 50 years, progressively worsening. The violence and apartheid/racism feed into each other, so root causes need to be addressed to break the cycle. The root cause of violence is stealing of lands, racism, apartheid, oppression etc., So at the very least a diplomatic solution aimed at making things better in a phased manner has to be pursued.



Yup, that is why 10,000+ Palestinians are dead. And how kind, in agreeing to only bomb them 20 out of 24 hours in a day. Maybe the Israelis needed a bathroom break. Listen to yourself and how in your language your priority for Palestinian lives does not even exist and instead you keep talking about Hamas. You should prioritize protecting Palestinian lives FIRST. Israel's military objectives in taking down Hamas are secondary to Palestinian lives.
that's what happens when you allow terrorists build tunnels under civilian structures....when you declare war with your neighbors, you evacuate your civilians...Hamas obviously have no regard for civilians they're suppose to "protect"...

Yes. Hamas, a terrorist group does not have any regard for civilian lives. That is why they attacked Israeli civilians. That is why they don't help the Palestinians.

But what is the reason for Israel's lack of regard for civilian lives that they have indiscriminately bombed and killed 10,000+ people and counting?

Is it because they are a terrorist state? Or is it because they are racist and are currently engaged in collective punishment and war crimes against the Palestinians? Take your pick. I think it is the latter and I think it is something everyone who cares about international law or humanity in general should unconditionally condemn.
Um, you don't build those tunnels in a vacuum. The population knew. And supported Hamas.

And now as a result they are going to lose that 7km of land.

I've taken my pick...Why not call Israel what you intend to call it? Why hide behind a question...what do you think of Israel? there are palestinians who don't support the violence and would gladly evacuate for their safety...then you have palestinians who welcome the violence....and dying in war as long as they take some Jews with them is the ultimate gateway to heaven....does Israel troops just fire on civilian point blank the way Hamas did? No they don't...

You are actually right about this for once. Same with the 2 old ladies they released earlier as well. They just did not want useless hostages that would require routine care that they could not or did not want to provide. You cannot expect any humanity from terrorist groups. Question is why is Israel acting the same way towards the Palestinians when they are supposed to be better?
Israel is holding old ladies and sick children as hostages? News to me!

Even if they knew, so what ? That gives who the right to kill them? So what if they supported them? It is still a war crime to kill people for their 'support' aka thoughts. Thought crimes are no crimes and are not punishable by death. The only people who deserve to be killed are the ones who ACTED on October 7. Not the innocent civilians and the 5000 children that are dead. You and many others here, and outside of this board, support mass murder of Muslims and Palestinians. Should someone come for you then for your 'thought crime'?



What question have I hid behind?

I have stated very clearly what I think about Israel. Not just in this thread, but even before October 7 in other threads.

I think Israel is an extremely racist, oppressive, apartheid, colonial, Jewish supremacist aka Zionist state, that is currently indiscriminately killing Palestinian civilians and most importantly children, to collectively punish them, with an ulterior motive to push the Palestinians out and steal their lands. This is who you have picked.
So your opinion of them is what I picked? They are far from it...
They accept LGBTQ, they're population is diverse, a lot of asians go there for livelihood and work (such racists), Muslims live harmoniously alongside jews in Israel.... I don't know how you arrived in your opinion about Israel...you're free to have it....

Not that the population could do anything about it if they tried, I guess.

But I assume that the population's access to information is 100% controlled by HAMAS and they are dragooned and bullied and that means that most of them are sympathetic to HAMAS and its way of doing business.

Just like you can't really blame the German population in the 1930's and 1940's for Hitler and the Nazis, but you can be damned sure that many - if not most - Germans were cheering for Hitler pretty hard, right up until the end.

Why the fuck were those poor, sick, innocent people being held captive to being with?!?!?!.....

And don't give me the standard horseshit about "resistance to the occupation"! A sick 12 year old boy and a 77 year old woman is not "the occupation".

ALL the hostages should be set free and their abductors turned over to the Israeli government for justice and punishment.

Its a double standard. Calling for Hamas to surrender and releaze hostages should have been the FIRST step towards a conflict resolution.

Predictably,

1. The pro palestine cause wont acknowledge that because it would imply (obvious) fault by Hamas.

2. Hamas wont surrender. Which means war. And in war when Hamas kills their “own ppl” and uses them as human shields, what do they expect IDF to do? Ground assault would be necessary but more IDF casualties would occur.

3. Ceasfire? People arent thinking rationally. You cant reason with terrorists. Resolving the issue with a 2 state solution has been rejected everytime. Simply put, the pro palestine side isnt offering any realistic peace resolution. It sucks that palestinian civilians are dying. Whose fault is that? Depends who you ask, but for me the onus is on Hamas and their supporters.

Tell that to the thousand plus Palestinians, including women and children, held without charge, access to a lawyer and without any disclosed evidence. Add another couple of thousand Palestinians in jail on trumped up charges.

No. You don't get to excuse war atrocities against innocent people by vaguely saying that the other side does bad things as well.

Smarten up! Own that you support HAMAS - terrorist pigs that should be lined up in front of a fucking wall and shot - and admit that those Israeli hostages need to be released right now!
