"We had already run out of words to describe how catastrophic the situation is in Rafah—but this next chapter will take it to indescribable new levels," said Save the Children International's CEO.
75 years of terrible leadership in Gaza by extreme pan Islamists.
They aren't fighting for representative government and self determination, they're fighting for theocratic Authoritarianism and to "restore Islam to its 'rightful' place in the world."
Islam's rightful place in the world is in the ground.
What 2000 years? You mean the Jews that lived peacefully in Palestine for the last 1000 years after the Romans were defeated before a bunch of radicalized European terrorists colonized their land 75years ago?
Ah yes as if the European jews have been there for 2000 years. Cannanites are natives to the land and it was the tribes of israel that came from Egypt to their land. Modern day Palestinians are a mixture between cannanites, Arabs, jews and some other groups.
Archaeological evidence doesn't support any of the early events of the Bible. The evidence we have found of the time indicates that the Israelites were Canaanites, they were never in Egypt, and the battle of Jericho never happened, amoung other things that they made up around the time of the bronze age collapse.
2000 years ago what's now Ashkenazis still lived in Israel so... kind of self-defeating point there. You'd have to make sure to go a little less further back.
Also the came from Egypt stuff, if it ever happened (at least in the sense of a great migration), is much further back than 2000 years. Also Jews were still polytheist and lots of random odds and ends.
Honestly, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if, in the inevitable Israel Nuremberg Trials, it comes out that the Israeli government intentionally instigated or even carried out the October 7 attack in order to generate sympathy and as a pretext for its genocide.
Like how? I mean do you and people upvoting you really think there will be some trial for Israel leaders? Right now we in the situation where military support for them is increasing. And the tendency is it will increase further. What do you imagine might change?
I don't think there will be a trial. I just think it's plausible, but not extremely likely, that Israel's fascist government would be willing to plan or at least support an attack on its own citizens in order to obtain a mandate to take Palestine
They might have let it happen intentionally and pulled Gaza troops to the West Bank beforehand.
But the way israel went full mask off Nazi mode and threw its entire global reputation away over the last 7 months does not indicate that everything is going according to plan.
Well he probably is making the biggest advertising for them in their history. No matter how this war ends, there will be thousands of people with a grudge against Israel.
I’m not in charge of Israeli military policy, and im not here to justify their actions. But maybe Hamas should have considered the extent of retaliation when they started a war with them by murdering 1200 innocents.
That was my whole point. By starting a war with Israel, they clearly had very little to zero consideration for the Palestinian people.
Hamas are not murdering innocents anymore. Israel is. Continually. Unyielding. With glee.
But it doesn't matter what Hamas is doing, did, or will do. It's all political pretense anyway. If it wasn't that it would be something else. Israel wanted to cleanse the area finally and take over, and this seemed like a good excuse as any to rile up the zombie masses and rally them around the genocide campfire. You're falling for it. You're part of the problem.
Hamas attacked Israel? Zionists stole Palestine, committing a continuously ongoing campaign of terror and ethnic cleansing against Palestinians. Palestinians have a human right to self defense against the occupiers, of which October 7th was a valid example.
My argument is that if Hamas actually cared about “their people”, they wouldn’t have started a war against a much stronger enemy who has proven to have very little care for causing civilian loss.
The “if it wasn’t this, it would have happened anyway” is a big assumption that nobody will be able to prove one way or the other
No, my argument is that if Hamas actually cared about “their people”, they wouldn’t have started a war against a much stronger enemy who has proven to have very little care for causing civilian loss.
You are putting the responsibility for those murders entirely on Hamas rather than the government currently perpetrating them, thus justifying that government's actions. You could have just as easily made your opening comment, "Man, if only Israel cared about international law." Please stop insulting my intelligence.
Taken a step back and considered how they got where they did, and determine what steps could be taken for a long term peace. Well, I guess they did that but decided their path to peace involved killing every last Palestinian, a final solution if you will.
They should live in the special IDF cities since IDF and other Israeli citizens never live anymore close to each other. /s
So, about those IDF who did a lot more than kidnapped people, where should they live? Or is there worse repercussions for natives versus the invaders that kill them nonstop for decades?
That says Hamas agreed to a proposal put forward by Egypt and Qatar, Israel hasn't agreed to it yet. There were a number of proposals before this one Israel agreed to that Hamas rejected. It seems to be a challenge to find a proposal both can accept.
Man you’re completely missing my point. Maybe I just made the point poorly.
If I’m a lot weaker than my bully, and my bully absolutely hates my guts, I’m not going to go and pick a fight with them, because it will give them all the justification they need to beat my brains in.
I understand that Israelis hate Palestinians. That’s exactly why Hamas going and starting this war was the absolute worst thing they could’ve possibly done, if they truly cared about the Palestinian people. It gave Israel all the justification they needed to kill tens of thousands. That’s it. Not saying the justification is right, but it opened the door
