Israeli PM said to have turned down proposal in early talks and continues to take tough line
Honestly all this will do is infuriate more Gazans who may have lost everything, and will want vengeance. Continuity the cycle. I get Hamas is an issue but making Gazans suffer for it doesn’t help anyone.
How much more angry can they get? Like they’re angry enough to behead children, and cheer raped corpses through their streets. What more do they have to offer?
I can’t believe I have to say this, but hamas ≠ Palestinians, Just like Israel’s government ≠ Jewish people.
Hamas didn’t cheer those corpses, common Palestinians did. There’s extensive polling in the region and Hamas enjoys widespread support. It’s believed that if elections happened today in the West Bank that Hamas would win.
While Hamas might not represent the Palestinian diaspora, they definitely represent the Palestinians located in the Gaza Strip.
Who did extensive polling? Who says hamas enjoys widespread support? Wide spread support in what? Do you believe that Hamas would allow a proper free election? The amount of children in Gaza, are they being represented here? How many Palestinians were out cheering in the street? When Israelis do it regarding bombs being dropped on gaza, does that make it ok? Does that represent enough Israelis to paint them with the same brush?
