    “This guy with an absolutely more valid point of view doesn’t agree with me so he’s a douchebag” Sure. Ok. Whatever.

    And comparing this Gaza war with the rest of the world’s conflicts is just absurd. No war in recent times has been with so many civilians around legitimate military targets, and that makes this war impossible to win without casualties. Not to mention almost half of Gaza are children, so that data is also heavily skewed.

    That same “refugee camp” was heavily populated by Hamas terrorists, which were located there for decades, in concrete buildings. Calling it an innocent refugee camp for the poor and helpless is a loooong stretch after what’s been done in 7/10.

    Premature babies are evacuated by the IDF when they arrive at the hospital.

    And the geneva convention clearly states that deliberately fighting from civilian infrastructure is a violation of the geneva convention, and that once such a case has been made, that same infrastructure is a valid military target. No one cares when Hamas grossly and admittedly break the geneva convention because they’re the poor side.

      “Impossible to win”

      Yep that’s sums it up. There’s no military solution to what Israel is doing unless it involves ethnic cleansing and genocide, which based on the dehumanizing statements of Israel’s politicians, officers and religious extremists in addition to the war crimes it’s carrying out in Gaza by bombing hospitals, schools and refugee camps, is quite likely. There are millions of Palestinians without rights or self determination. Israel wants to keep them in ghettos forever.

      This deliberate destruction of urban areas by the Israeli army is policy as you probably already know.

        The military solution is to cleanse Hamas from power.

        Destroy all their terror resources, guns, rockets, tunnels. Then put someone else in power who doesn’t advocate for and actively and successfully pursues the murder of all Israelis.

        And again, the bombings of civilian infrastructure would’ve been considered as war crimes if Hamas wasn’t using them as bases of operations to carry out actual legitimate horrifying genocide against Israelis.

        Yes, Israel wants Gazans to stay poor. Coz when they’re poor they can’t do This

        I legit want to know what any of you have done if you were born Israelis. They act in the most humane way possible by anyone in the world, given their circumstances. The fact that their government isn’t even more right wing, and isn’t advocating the total destruction of Gaza is a shock to me. Their enemies are actively and successfully pursuing them in wars until all Israelis would die. Just imagine if someone like putin was in charge of Israel… Or Khamenei… 2 million would be either in Egypt, or in graves.
