        Give the Palestinians the rights they deserve, stop oppressing them and Hamas magically disappears.

        There’s just no guarantee for that specific outcome.

        Look what happened with the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Nominally, the Taliban were fighting the Western oppressors. But when U.S. troops left, the Taliban didn’t just magically disappear.

        For that matter, look at Saudi Arabia or Iran or Qatar or Dubai or Abu Dhabi. They’re essentially doing the exact same thing as the Taliban, just with a lot more money. No outside oppressor there.

        Given that Hamas shares a lot of the same ideology when it comes to ruling Gaza, what makes you believe they would just magically disappear? Why wouldn’t Hamas want to rule Gaza like the Taliban rule Afghanistan, or like the House of Saud rules Saudi Arabia?

      The solution was reached weeks ago when they killed 1200 innocent civilians. Now they’re at 10x that amount. Time for them to go home and not do an ethnic cleansing.

    I accidentally got banned from a Lemmy community and I’m truly trying to be as reasonable as possible so this is some touchy stuff because it’s horrible & true — especially if one on your relative perished in the Oct 6 surprise attack at the concert. Please don’t ban me but some of us have relatives that were killed in the attack and so… it’s horrible and true.

      I’ve been banned from some random communities for pointing out that people are fully supporting Hamas, or just being brutally Antisemitic. This vileness is everywhere you look right now.

      You weren’t accidentally banned. Just saying.

      Hope you and your family are holding up okay. This is a shit time.

      It’s not self defense. Your relatives were sacrificed by the Israeli government to create a pretext to commit genocide against Palestinians.

      Israel bombed hostages, hospitals, refugee camps, and buses full of children, If What Hamas did was terrorism then what Israel’s doing is also terrorism.

      There really is no way to bomb hospitals and then blame the hospital for being a human shield when it was your bomb that murdered those children.

      In a just world there will be a reckoning for the government of Israel, and it involves sending a great deal of them to the Hague where they will hang until death.

        So when Hamas guns down Israeli civilians that are not next to military targets it’s justified and actually the fault of the jews, and when Israel strikes Hamas military targets that are deliberately placed next to their own civilians it’s never justified and the jews hould hang?

        Very cool.

        There really is no way to bomb hospitals and then blame the hospital for being a human shield when it was your bomb that murdered those children.

        What do you realistically expect armies to do when their opponents place all their military assets next to civilian targets? Just give up and kill themselves?

          Those are the only two options I guess, indiscriminately murder civilians and blow up hospitals or suicide.

          That’s obviously the only option out there.

          You’re the only person saying " the Jews should hang" I’m saying people who commit war crimes should go to the place where the world has decided to try war criminals and then they should punish them like we have punished war criminals in the past.

          We hung Nazis we should hang Netanyahu, they’re the same fucking thing.

            The fact that he’s saying “the jews” and not “Jewish people” at all is a huge red flag. Huge racist tone.

            Feel free to share your operational plan for how the Israelis should proceed, I’m sure it will be very realistic and grounded in military reality.

            I’m saying people who commit war crimes should go to the place where the world has decided to try war criminals and then they should punish them like we have punished war criminals in the past.

            So you’re obviously also saying that Hamas should be hung from the neck until dead.

            Attacking a hospital containing active enemy combatants is not a war crime. Garrisoning troops in a hospital is a war crime. Not making necessary precautions to move civilians away from the combat area is also a war crime.

            Deliberately harming civilians is a war crime. Harming civilians by accident or as a byproduct of necessary military action is not a war crime.

            Your performative outrage is pretty funny.

            In another comment from you I’m a Hamas supporter.

            Lol are you fucking stupid? Necessary to murder civilians? You hamas supporting psychopath.

            Funnily enough, all of this is in response to someone saying that the Israeli government sacrificed someone’s family after they were murdered, which you apparently don’t have any problem with.

              Nah, I have a problem with both sides. That’s the only acceptable position. Hamas is a terrorist organization that uses civilians as Shields, and Isreal is a genocidal regime bent on literally wiping Palestinians off the face of the earth. Both sides suck. Why are we fighting over which turd is bigger when we need to clean it all up?

                The most important thing is that you can attack everybody and feel superior to them all.

                Why are we fighting over which turd is bigger when we need to clean it all up?

                I’m not fighting for either side, I’m just disagreeing with the assertion that the concert goers who were murdered by Hamas were “sacrificed by Israel”.

    No need to make it look like I’m biased though. If Israel did the same to their own citizens as hamas (not care about them, use them as a living shield, train them as terrorists, tell them from the child age they need to kill Palestinians) I’d criticize them much stronger.

      I guess you don’t know how education works in a fascist country, then? Go on… ask me how it works.

      use them as a living shield

      If you believe that, I have to ask… what other white supremacist apologetics do you fall for?

        Do you mean it was Israeli who placed tunnels and terrorist infrastructure under Gaza’s hospitals?

          Yes? That’s not being disputed anymore, Israel admitted it.

          What makes someone a human shield is not the coward hiding in the crowd but the psycho shooting into it.

            You forgot the part where you make your opponent a psycho by constantly shooting at them, without which they wouldn’t attack you in a way that would cause anyone think you use someone as a shield.
