Israeli air strikes on a so-called "humanitarian zone" in southern Gaza's al-Mawasi killed at least 40 people on Tuesday, according to health authorities in the enclave.

The strikes targeted at least 20 tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in the coastal area near the city of Khan Younis.

Eyewitnesses told AFP that at least five rockets fell in the area, with emergency services saying the strikes created craters up to nine metres deep.

How would Israel operate differently if Hamas was hiding in Tel Aviv and using those citizens as their human shields?

That's a hostage situation, or breaking and entering (and maybe blackmail), depending on if the citizens in question are different ones from Tel Aviv or the original ones from The Gaza strip. It's an entirely different situation.

But I thought they all had the same rights?

[–] Threeme2189@lemmy.world -3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It depends if they're willfully hiding the terrorists or are forced to do so.

The cheat code here is indoctrinating your soldiers (serving compulsorily) to the point that they equate "Palestinian" with "terrorist."

A religious ethnostate where every single citizen is required to serve in the military. A military that brainwashes them into believing that Palestinians are literally subhuman. And I mean literally in the classic sense. These are not humans in their eyes.

Which means that every school and hospital in the area is "harboring terrorists" because there are Palestinians there. How convenient for them.

I'm Israeli and have served in the IDF. This is simply not true.

LOL.

Many of them are also taught a whole lot about disseminating propaganda.

[–] Threeme2189@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm glad you find it funny. Have a nice life.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I will, thanks. You'd be surprised how much difference a clear conscious (with no cognitive dissonance there to nag you) can make.

Maybe try not practicing genocide apologia for a bit. I bet you'll feel better about yourself.

[–] Threeme2189@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You're misinformed about many things.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 month ago

Wow. You make an excellent point.
