> The only reason the gazans are not doing this is because they are utterly incompetent, they cant. I dont see how that gives them the moral high ground. As soon as they gain the ability to shoot israeli civilians they will begin to do so again.
using dehumanizing/racist language as a defense for war crimes unfortunately doesn't fly at The Hague.
Not racist to point out the government in gaza has over and over and over and over and over and over again shown they will never stop until israel no longer exists. The israelis are lucky Hamas is so incompetent, oct. 7th couldve been much worse. The hague is a joke unfortunately, otherwise Hamas wouldve been dismantled long ago.
that's interesting because the government of israel has over and over and over and over and over and over again shown they will never stop until palestinians no longer exist. and that's the same justification they use!
you should ask Israelis if they feel like Oct 7 was a display of incompetence.
Counterpoint: As I understand it, t was Israeli military incompetence and Netanyahu's strategy of backing Hamas over the PA that caused Oct 7.
Oct 7 will never happen again because it shouldn't have been able to happen in the first place had Israel been less busy fomenting Palestinian extremism in Gaza, and beating/killing Palestinians in the West Bank.
There is no justification for the conditions in Gaza today. All I see are Israelis relishing in the suffering of another group of people. And I see Israeli extremists continuing to conflate Israeli Nationalism with Judaism, so that any criticism of Israel is called anti-Semitic.
> Israeli military incompetence and Netanyahu's strategy of backing Hamas over the PA that caused Oct 7.
I was about to make a joke about this to your sibling comment. Completely agree that oct 7 was one of the biggest security fuck ups in modern history, the militants never shouldve been allowed to escape gaza.
There is no defending Israel's actions over the last year. I just hate seeing people hitting the wrong points. The lopsided death count is irrelevant because it is Hamas' fault. The annexation of gaza is irrelevant because thats what happens when you lose a war you started.
Now starving them out and running them over Tiananmen square style, thats pretty relevant I think. Israels actions in the west bank were in many ways even worse until the starvation stuff started. Straight up state sanctioned terrorism happening over there
The lopsided death count is Hamas' fault because they are unable to kill any israelis at all. Hamas dies and Israelis dont = lopsided death count. Thats not a bad thing. As you pointed out, there are many actual bad things going on, so focus on that instead of dumb shit that doesnt matter. Makes you look like an idiot when you complain that Hamas cant kill israelis instead of talking about how theyre starving an entire society to death. Hamas does use human shields and that does make it valid for the israelis to kill the human shields, so again the lopsided death count mostly just serves to remind everyone that hamas doesnt give a shit about their population. That Hamas is not a government anyone wants to live under. Doesnt help their cause. Mass starvation does. You need to convince that the palestinian deaths are unjustified, not that they happened. Death happens in war.
the language that casts all palestinians as murderers who have only failed at their mission of massacring all israelis because of their own incompetence. i quoted it in my reply above.
No one is claiming anything about all palestinains here, just like no one is claiming that all israelis are genociders. But the society as a whole is run by incompetent wanna be genociders just like the israeli society is run by actual genociders.
