Not many other ways to make 1.1 million people really angry, on top of all else. Not everyone there is a terrorist, but they all have to pay the price for the actions of those whose are.
Oh there’ll be a much larger number of terrorists after this.
What would you do if your family was killed by a government claiming you’re inhuman just for existing and your neighbour deciding to launch a rocket at that government out of sheer frustration for their living conditions.
Honestly can’t blame them if they did. Obviously killing Israeli civilians is indefensible but they are ensuring that thousands more will grow up hating all Israelis. The same logic Israelis and Israel supporters are using to kill innocent Palestinians is what Hamas runs off of. Each group blaming the entire “other” group for everything. Exactly like netanyahu wanted all along I imagine.
There’s no way they’re not gonna do that, they’re already annexing territories where people reside. People will move to the side that’s not getting bombed and when it’s all done, 2 million people will be living in half the small area they had at best.
I’d genuinely be shocked if they didn’t try to annex the majority of the land if not all of it. Cornering a mass of people isn’t a wise decision but they will use the inevitable violence as an excuse for all out ethnic cleansing
And if they don’t, its very likely they’ll just make it unlivable so the people can’t feasibly return The current Israeli government would be quite happy with Gaza City just being empty. That would solve a lot of long term problems with only short term consequences. A final solution to the Palestinian problem, if you would.
Turns out the Israelíes liked 1930s German policy, just not who it was directed against. They’re using the same playbook as the former oppressors of their people to inflict the generational pain onto others.
Interesting to see them justify how much God supports their hatred.
A much higher number of justifications for that government to crack down even further. First you demonize the enemy, then you strike against them, and when they inevitably defend themselves, you have a justification to kill the people trying to kill yours. That playbook is millenia old and still works.
Is it even terrorism at that point? From what I can tell, most missiles are actually striking military targets (at least, judging by how many military targets have been struck and destroyed). I doubt Hamas has the missiles necessary to launch a terror campaign given that, y’know, they’ve literally been repurposing unexploded Israeli munitions that land on Gaza.
What’s Hamas mad about? Have they been the subject of unjust oppression or something? As if perhaps the collective world is saying “Well of fucking course this would happen, look at what they are forced to experience”? Are there political options to end the genocidal policies that are reasonable for the continued existence of both people? Are people forced to choose leaders that present the only solution available for the option of a life not under constant oppression like a WWII Warsaw ghetto?
Nah, that can’t be it, they must just hate the Jews or something.
If I lived in Gaza now, I probably would have started to think Hamas were right all along.
And the only reason I’m not, is because I was lucky in my birth lottery. I am here not there. I am safe, and not there in danger for my life.
It’s literally just luck.
Not everybody is so lucky.
I wish cooperation was a lot more typical in the world, instead of the egoistic and power hungry normal that it is. Doing whatever one can do to get an upper hand, instead of just trying to make the world a better place. In the long run, we all would benefit.
Hammas killed more Palestinians than Israel did. When they came to power they commited mass murder of opposing political parties within Gaza Strip. Hammas is a fanatic religious group.
They took both the residents of Gaza Strip and Israel hostage.

I wouldn’t doubt that there’s also a fear that Israel will just annex the evacuated territory after this, to compound matters.

Just in time for flu season.

We call it fascism now.

Are you really surprised that bombing Palestine, shooting innocent protestors, and blockading Palestine from outside aid leads to radicalization?
Meanwhile, unlike an actual terrorist organization (e.g. ISIS, which would pride itself on terrorizing civilians), Hamas’ statements make it clear that they make efforts to avoid civilian casualties: https://twitter.com/Aldanmarki/status/1712738101108384185?t=OIRmyV9jzr3DSFoDZCrR6Q&s=19
Meanwhile…
70 people, mostly women and children, killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza’s fleeing convoys, Hamas says
Several Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in occupied West Bank
Indonesia’s Medical Emergency Rescue Committee condemns Israeli strikes killing its staff in Gaza
I sure wonder why Palestinians would get radicalized.
I’d say a fairly high percentage of them agree with what Hamas did. That’s the Islamic world for you.

Correction, that’s any oppressed society for you.

But would the people present in Gaza currently know that?
All they would see and feel are airstrikes and bombs being dropped on them.
The point is, this is going to create far more radicalism than it would solve.
Are you hinting that the Palestine people are removed? They know it. Does it make better? No. It’s a cluster fuck
The Palestine people are mostly kids
