      It’s hard to go against them in the West.

      The right hate Muslims so side with Israel.

      The left hate to be called antisemites, so hand-wring over civilian deaths, but ultimately side with Israel.

      Just lovely how everybody is forgetting that Hamas is responsible for this all. They can end it any time they want, release the hostages and surrender, but they chose not to.

        Everyone can always blame someone else, especially in this conflict. It’s time for Israel to grow up and take responsibility for its actions. They have caused harm, anger, and hatred by using terrorism (fear and violence) to enforce their rule over people. Somehow we (the US and most of the west) provide them with resources and weapons though. How fucked up is that?

          Hamas has launched in the realm of 7000 rockets at Israel civilians since October 7. But hey, keep blaming it all on Israel. Lets make antisemitism cool again, you are doing your part already.

          And as always: Propose an alternative to how Israel should defend itself instead. Still haven’t heard anybody give one and it has been weeks.

            Commiting genocide against a civilian population is not self defense. How can you read an article like the OP and just be completely empty inside? How broken are you?

              For one, they don’t.

              And as always: Propose an alternative to how Israel should defend itself instead. Still haven’t heard anybody give one and it has been weeks.

              But keep listening to that Hamas propaganda it’s totally not rotting your brain away.

                An alternative? There are infinite. They can start cooperating and make a good will gesture of returning occupied lands back to the Palestinian people. They can stop colonizing and murdering innocent civilians (which isn’t only just now happening, it’s constant in occupied lands). They can loosen restriction on travel between Gaza and Israel.

                The solution is to improve relations with the people. Attacking them and killing civilians only causes more hate, which causes more violence. It isn’t defence. It’s genocide. They get Hamas to attack and they get to kill more Palestinians.

                  They tried that, didn’t work, each time they were meet with more Hamas terrorism. What’s your second suggestion from the pool of infinite alternative?

                    They never tried that. They have been constantly expanding colonies and murdering civilians in occupied lands. The whole nation started with just some Jews colonizing the territory, and it was made official after that when they knew there was no stopping it (not that they would anyway). They did reduce their harm for a period, but they never really tried to do good.

      They won’t. The extermination of Palestinians has been a stated goal of Israel and its allies for decades.

      They’re not going to be punished for pulling the trigger.

        This is the full transcript of the recording between an Israeli IDF officer and a resident of northern Gaza

        “Hello?”

        “Muhammad?”

        “Yes”

        “How are you?”

        “Yes”

        "This is an officer from the IDF calling you. For your own safety I’m asking you to go to Khan Yunis as fast as possible "

        “Where to?”

        “In the direction of Khan Yunis. ASAP. I don’t want you to put yourself at risk, that’s why I’m telling you to go there.”

        “All the roads are blocked”

        “Where you are right now isn’t safe, you need to… blocked where? Who blocked it? Hamas?”

        “Yes”

        “What?”

        “Yes, that’s correct”

        “Where did they block the road?”

        “At Salah ad-Din”

        “Salah ad-Din?”

        “Yeah”

        “How did they block it?”

        “They’re just forcing people to go back home”

        “Are they putting cars on the road? Police cars or…”

        “Yes yes”

        “How exactly? Explain it to me. Please, did you see it with your own eyes?”

        “In a car, people are going south and they’re just bringing them back home”

        “How did they block the road?”

        “They’re shooting at people”

        “Shooting what? Are they shooting at people that want to leave?”

        “Yes yes yes”
