  • You make a strong point, and all of it makes sense. This is NOT a simple, black-and-white/either-or situation. Upvoted.

    I think the Israeli thought might be along the lines of:

    Imagine you see your neighbor supporting a bunch of terrorists in their home. Suddenly their home is bombed and turned into a parking lot. Maybe you’ll think long and hard when a terrorist group knocks on your door and asks to hide there for a while. The only problem is, do they ask or just come in uninvited?

    Fixing this would ideally not involve guns, but it doesn’t work this way, at least not well. The only way this can end is if Hamas is destroyed and Gaza is occupied - by Israel or the UN - and rising terrorist groups are infiltrated and nullified before they can reach the stage of endangering their neighbors, until the entire population grasps and can control a self-government process.

    If the people of Gaza assist in any way in destroying Hamas, this ends sooner and lives are saved. And the people aren’t there yet - Hamas was their government, so…

    Again, not a great solution.

    But I find it interesting that almost every comment I receive is “But look what the Israelis did to us years and years ago…” These commenters should grow the fuck up. Get over it. And no, I’m not a Native American so I don’t have a first-hand experience of it. But just as the Native Americans fought for years by using raids, kidnappings, outpost torching… wow, this looks familiar. And they didn’t win either. The same thing is going to happen to Hamas and those who support them.

    Again, Hamas has publicly stated that they will not stop killing until Israel is wiped off the map. We can figure it out from there how this has to go.






  • You deserve an answer. An acceptable number of innocents, in a perfect world, is Zero. But who is in control of that? Hummus.

    As per your P.S. How come you don’t see the same from the Israelis, they’re endangering civilians too?

    “Whataboutism” is lame.

    The fact is Israel is an apartheid state and they have been stealing land for decades. What would you do if you were a victim of this?

    Probably not invade, kill and kidnap innocent people, and run away to hide among women and children. But that’s me. Obviously it’s okay for Hummus /s

    What the IDF is doing is terroristic, as is what Hamas has done. So either you’re for terrorism or against it, you can’t say it’s ok for one side and not the other.

    See above.

    Furthermore, the hostages could have been returned many time with any one of the ceasefire deals on the table, but the Israeli government want blood not the hostages.

    It’s too late for that, and Hummus knows it. They could have returned the hostages, but they need to go away. They’ve already stated their goal is to delete Israel, so Israel should just… what? Let the terrorists live and regrow. Also, Israel is proving that if Hummus doesn’t return the hostages, Israel will take them back anyway - and there will be unfortunate casualties because of where Hummus hides, behind women and children. Tough shit for them, I guess, but with Hummus pissing themselves while cowering behind them, they don’t leave much choice.

    And let’s not forget, if Hummus is hiding among women and children, women and children could choose to live and turn those assholes in, or overpower them, or… is there an anti-Hummus underground in Gaza? There should be.

    I don’t understand. How is someone who promotes rights, liberties, and democracy getting pissed off at someone else exercising those rights?
