I find it very interesting that the mainstream media is only picking up the stories about the victims that are the most European looking…

If you watch the video, the mother of the daughter states that all mothers are grieving right now.

Why do Palestinians keep electing HAMAS? 

Because after being persecuted, oppressed, and killed, extremism seems to the be only option for some people.

Are you saying that we should be proud of Israel for not committing genocide?

Not proud, just glad that Israel hasn't done far worse due to Hamas' actions or re-actions as you all like to call it yet I struggle to see Israel ever taking palestinian hostages.

Certain users here need their electricity cut because the level of willful ignorance and supreme obtuseness is far too much.

 

That user is still arguing when they clearly have no ******* clue about whats been happening. "Israel never took Palestinian hostages" :toofunny2:

And some of you have the nerve to narrow this entire conflict down to Hamas, like Israel hasn't been oppressing, displacing and killing Palestinians for 70+ years. This isn't Israel being "forced" to do anything. This is their modus operandi and always has been.

 

 

If Hamas has any kind of legitimacy or support in Gaza, it's because Israel refused to uphold its agreements with secular Palestinian forces and supported Islamist groups in the 80s as part of a divide-and-conquer strategy.

 

If any of you actually cared about ending civilian suffering, you'd be focusing on the root cause of the issue (Zionist apartheid), not the consequence.

I don't see the terrorist state of Israel ever taking Palestinian hostages.

Imagine trying to justify a complete BLOCKADE. There are several million people living in Gaza, including a lot of very young children, and they have nowhere to run from the daily strikes, they have no place to evacuate.

It reminds me of something close to home, Mariupol. For months, there was fighting going on and the residents had nowhere to go, they were burying their neighbors literally in the courtyards of apartment buildings and had no access to something as simple as electricity and now living in ruins under Russian occupation. Ukraine and other western countries will regret today's support for Israel when they see the full picture and consequences of Israel's strikes. What Hamas did is terrible, but it doesn't justify the terrorizing of two million people.

Despite this being factually wrong - countless Palestinians are kidnapped and taken into Israeli prisons by IDF soldiers- it also purposefully ignores the reality that the creation of Gaza is that of an open air prison. Israel already has taken 2M Palestinians hostage. Gaza literally serves as a fenced-in internment camp. 

 

And the progressive Israeli media agree that apartheid and Bibi are the party most responsible now for this violence unfolding -

It doesn't have to be an open air prison if they didn't rely on Israel for their basic needs like water and power.

 

Also prisoners is different than hostages. They at least have the option to fight these accusations and get out of prison. Hostages don't. Hostages aren't like prisoners who can eventually get out of prison. They're f*cking HOSTAGES!

Israel is going to be remembered as a terrorist state no different than Rhodesia, no matter what narratives those in Western countries have to comfort themselves with. 

Interesting how the news in my country are not reporting this. Like, I know both sides are doing wrong things, but their lack of imparciality is way too evident when they're just showing Israel POV the whole time :coffee2:

This situation is madness. I’ve been doing my best to not comment on this matter out of respect of everyone with different beliefs and points of view but remaining silent in moments like this doesn’t do any favours. Our U.K. prime minister commented on this, showing support of Israel on behalf of all of our nation. There are thousands of Palestinians here in the U.K. that came for protection and I stand in full solidarity with them.

 

This doesn’t make me anti semantic nor Zionist. Innocent people are being murdered on both sides, and Palestinians refugees are equally important as Israelis and they should not be the target of this absurd war. I have zero respect for people finding justification for this.

That's usually what happens when an imperial force invades a nation and takes a people hostage on their own land, taking over their rights to housing and basic living conditions, yes. 

 

You're openly gloating that you know the aim of the Israeli state is the eventual ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from the land entirely. 

 

"I'm sure they could find electricity and water and food if they... you know...just left already!"

My heart goes out to the innocent people on both sides. They’ve been at war for more than seventy years and so many lives have been lost. I’m praying for peace, but I know, sadly, it won’t happen.

800 dead Israelis

520 dead Palestinians

:biblio::biblio:

Also, I feel so bad for the Palestinians, like, for one side being systematically opressed by Israel, and on the other side having to deal with the terrorist group most of them are not even part of.

 

It kinda reminds me of how the US keeps threatening with a Mexico invasion because of narco. Like, I'm not even part of them, why do I have to suffer the consequences of it :priceless:?

that is disgusting and inhumane, but no one from World leaders will sanction Israel for doing that because they don't care about Palestinian civilians
