    I see ads in TV that are pro Isreal now with Santa crying because of Hamas kidnapped people. I know it’s what about ism but not really moral high ground here when IDF literally wipes whole familes.

    “with Palestinian authorities reporting that 250 people have been killed”

    Palestinian authorities (at least in Gaza) = Hamas. But I’m sure they have no reason to lie.

    Man, fuck Israel. I hope they all end up at the fucking international court at the Hague and go to jail for crimes against humanity and that the world finally tells Israel to back the fuck off and go back to the borders that were drawn in the 1967 UN Security Council resolution.

      fuck off and go back to the borders that were drawn in the 1967 UN Security Council resolution.

      Yeah I ran across this awhile ago posted by Björk, and have been wondering if it’s factual. Paints a bit of a different picture of the motivations of Palestinians in general if true:

      I’d be interested to see the 2023 version.

      Aw man. My original comment was removed for incivility. Apologies to the mods. Thanks for not banning me on the spot. That’s appreciated.

      Gotta say it’s difficult to remain civil in the face of a genocide.

      What my original comment said, without the incivility, was:

      I hope Israel and it’s military end up at the international court at the Hague and go to jail for crimes against humanity and that the world finally tells Israel to back off and go back to the borders that were drawn in the 1967 UN Security Council resolution.

          I wasn’t banned. My comment was deleted because I wasn’t very civil. Lots of f-bombs and stuff.

          I think it’s alright to try to encourage a more civil discussion where we can argue by challenging each other’s arguments without using profanity.

    A lot of comments are saying that hamas hides behind civilians but from what I see and read hamas and civilians are a melting pot that is interwined due to the extreme oppression in gaza strip. Any palestinian civilian could understand and help or even just not condemn totally hamas due to their conditions and prolly Israel gladly label as hamas any slightly suspect palestinian top

      Though You’re mostly right, it’s missing a key part: the Israeli government has actively worked to make it this way, sponsoring Hamas with money and help because they wanted this. If you have an extremist organization so intertwined in the civil population, you can just go and murder them all.

      Hamas is evil, but the Israeli government is arguably worse
