Yeah fighting for your very existence is vile. Tell me another one.
A couple thousand Hamas terrorists with improvised rockets, rocks, and whatever little they manage to smuggle across some of the most tightly controlled borders in the world are NOT an existential threat to the country that controls those borders and have one of the most powerful and advanced militaries in the history of humanity, with millions of actual and potential recruits.
They're fighting NOT to protect their own existence, but to kill or displace all Palestinians. The vast majority of whom are innocent civilians, of course.
No, they are not. They self identify as martyrs. They are a part of, or at least support the cause. Hamas fills a school with weapons and ammo. They keep sending their children to it but say an extra prayer before and after they leave and return.
If only it was 'just a few thousand Hamas terrorists'...
That's just not true. Over half of the population wasn't even ALIVE the last time there was an alternative to vote for, much less old enough to vote.
More IDF Hasbara with no root in reality
WTF are you blathering about??
It is. Against a military with vastly superior technology and more soldiers than there are people in Gaza and the West Bank combined.
It's not a war. It's a genocide during which the occupation forces of the fascist apartheid regime is committing crimes against humanity on a daily basis.
Yes, it is. Every newsclip I've seen the 'civilians' use the word martyr in their statement. Face it. They aren't people in the Trade Centre just living their lives. They tacitly or overtly support the cause and so are not mere innocent bystanders. As for age? Indoctrination starts at birth and you know it so knock it off with the disingenuous arguments.
No. Stop lying, please.
Sounds like you need better sources.
That's a sinister lie that the war criminals in the Knesset are using to justify slaughtering innocents, including children.
It's no different than American bigots saying all Muslims and Arabs are terrorists.
So what you're saying is that it's completely fine to slaughter all the children? You're totally fine with the mass slaughter of children?
lol I can't even. Doubling down on the disingenuous arguments. Toodles dude. Reality is Gaza is going to be converted to a parking lot if people like you continue to refuse facing facts and conceding this isn't a winnable fight. Keep on clutching your pearls and saying 'no u' until the martyr supply is completely exhausted. Some consolation 'but we were right' will be at that point eh?
Whatever you say, cheerleader of countless atrocities. Have the day you deserve.
