Palestinians said they had received renewed warnings from Israel's military to move from north Gaza to the south of the strip, with the added warning that they could be identified as sympathisers with a "terrorist organisation" if they stayed put.
From what I can see as of a couple hours ago, they've been bombing the south and refugee camps. So far they use this messaging as a way to corral and murder.
A few days ago there were already more Palestinian children killed by just the current Israeli bombing of Gaza that the total of Israelis killed by Hamas' attack.
Must have been "sympathisers with a terrorist organisation", same as the ones who will be killed and arrested when the IDF finally enacts their Gaza invasion and anexation plan. /s
All palestinian across this world cherish the Hamas party rule despite their violent rise to power in 2006 when they literally murdered their political opposition, the Fatah.
The Muslim fundamentalists in the Levant will never stop their aggression towards Jews. There was never a time when they were friendly or tolerant to other religions.
You make some strange and easily debunkable claims here.
If "all Palestinians" cherished Hamas there wouldn't be a Fatah or a PA.
The Israeli right wing literally supported Hamas over Fatah in order to justify continued violence and land theft against the Palestinians. Hamas and the settlers (who are now the Israeli government) are literally feeding off each other.
The main reason this attack succeeded was because the Gaza border was unmanned, because the current Israeli government moved the military to the West Bank in order to protect the settlers there while they commit attacks on the Palestinians there. Despite the Israeli military describing some of the actions of these settlers as a "progrom".
The "Muslim fundamentalists of the Levant" comprise Christians and other groups too, including Jews before this entire conflict started. There had been Jews in the Levant for millennia, despite it being under Muslim rule for 1400 years. Jews were still banned from Jerusalem under the Byzantines, until the Muslims conquered it and allowed Jews to return to the city. Jerusalem had a Jewish majority when the British took control of the place.
I find this idea that the hatred is exclusively due to anti-Semitism to be the stupidest one Israel tries to put out there. Had Palestine been occupied by Bhuddists or atheists, you think they would not resist, or hate their occupier? Was the Viet-Cong motivated by anti-Christian values in fighting both France and the USA? How stupid are you?
Even in the 2006 election (the last held in Gaza) Hamas didn't even get a majority of votes (they got 44.45%). They were the largest party, and because of the electoral system they won a majority of seats.
I am getting the feeling that Israel (aka US) is creating more terrorists on purpose. If my entire family was killed and I survived I would be out for blood. I think anyone would.
Is this done just an excuse for the US to re-insert itself in a middle eastern conflict so our tax dollars can enrich the military industrial complex? Sure seems like it
We created our enemies in the Middle East, they would have no reason to hate us if we didn't.
Setting aside the US for a moment, I think Israel’s embattled condition has always helped the Zionist cause. Being in a state of crisis binds the Israeli people together and draws foreign aid. There’s also a draw for Jewish people around the world to go defend the homeland. All of this draws in people and money to Israel. And of course it creates the martial conditions for them to forcibly exclude millions of Arabs from their “democracy.” If Israel had been peaceably founded and there was no separation with Gaza / the West Bank then Israel likely would have stopped being a Jewish majority, Jewish controlled state long ago. Now that their society is affluent and developed, they’re having a harder time keeping up on birth rates too. You can get people to have 8 kids on a farming kibbutz. Gen-Z ravers with tech jobs? Not so much.
Their rockets don't have the range to hit Israel from the south end of Gaza and that's probably where the majority of their tunnel infrastructure is at too.
It seems likely that Israel will take control of the north side of Gaza, and then settlers will start living in the north side of Gaza. Then the leftover Palestinians in the south side of Gaza will be in rocket range again. And the cycle will continue
This is like watching sports. Everyone picks a team and after that nothing else matters than your team winning. If the opposing team gets a red card for nothing it's good and if your team gets one for a good reason it's bad. It's especially true in this case since there's almost nothing you can blame the other side for having done that the other haven't.
GAZA, Oct 22 (Reuters) - Palestinians said they had received renewed warnings from Israel's military to move from north Gaza to the south of the strip, with the added warning that they could be identified as sympathisers with a "terrorist organisation" if they stayed put.
The message was delivered in leaflets marked with the Israel Defense Forces name and logo from Saturday and sent to people via mobile phone audio messages across the Gaza Strip, a narrow territory that is just 45 km (28 miles) long.
Your presence north of Wadi Gaza puts your life in danger.
Israel has pounded Gaza with airstrikes since the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a deadly attack on Israeli soil on Oct. 7.
Israel has massed troops and armour on the border with Gaza ahead of an expected land incursion.
The Israeli military said in a statement it had "no intention to consider those who have not evacuated ... as a member of the terrorist group".

While it's not as ideal as you might like, there's nothing really wrong with just posting a link. Half the fun is in the surprise.
We're just chatting on the internet, it's impractical to expect every comment to be deeply thought out and fully constructed. Sometimes you just want to share something relevant and move on to the next thread. It's not like they masked a url with another or anything; any anger is unwarranted.
In a republic, representatives in power are elected by the general populace. Their decisions represent the will of the citizenry.
Hamas was freely elected by the people of Gaza in 2006. Their actions did and continue to represent the will of the citizenry. If they didn't, they would not still be in positions of elected authority.
So, in a war of aggression by a democratic state, voting age adults are just as responsible for the actions of their country as the combatants they indirectly sent to harm others.
Gazan adults are either fighting Hamas, or they support Hamas. And I haven't read ANYTHING about Gazans against Hamas taking up arms to free their country from that elected group.
I AM responsible. This is how democracy works. You are responsible for your own governance. Why don't you think for yourself? You can't vote for your government to kill others, and take zero responsibility.
Germans voted for the Nazi party to take power. And guess what? Germans supported that party, even after that party they chose to put into power suspended elections. If you elect a government that suspends elections, you're still responsible for electing that government. You put them there: you and your fellow citizens gave consent.
Taking your same logic, every citizen of every country is responsible for whatever that country does. That means all of the grievances the people of Gaza have are the responsibility of every citizen of Israel.
No, every voting eligible citizen in a democratically elected government is responsible for a war of aggression. They are giving consent to the war of aggression. That is how democracy works: you the citizen decide your own governance, and you are not magically absolved of responsibility for the actions of the government you elected.
Due to the Israeli blockade of goods and travel, these people were happy if they can survive the day to day. let alone fight a regime that even the 4th strongest army in the world is failing to control. But sure, it's their own fault.
