Claiming that Israel Israel had defeated all of Hamas local allies & majority of their leadership within the first week or two? If you genuinely believe that then why is this still going on almost 2 years later? As for the Human shields thing Israel says that to justify their mass indiscriminate bombing campaign. Hell the IDF has been caught using Palestinians as human shields. You claim you’re not asking me to both sides of a genocide while you continue to hold water for the side doing a
makes it more interesting that israel was given hundreds of billions more with the most advanced weapons in the world and still can’t destroy the “beacon of capitalist greed” who use molotov cocktails, stolen israeli equipment, and makeshift rockets. no, they’re fighting against the monster that is israel who uses genocide as a military strategy.
the death of Palestinian in Gaza doesn’t benefit israel at all? such an interesting claim given that they carpet bombed the entirety of the strip and are now deliberately starving the entire population. your rhetoric falls short there buddy, they’re not hiding underneath civilians. they’re attacking israeli terrorist forces and israel is losing. they just can’t take the heat so they torture everyone instead.
believe it or not israel has FULL CONTROL over their own actions. they can control when to bomb or shoot at civilians, they control where civilians are located, and now they can control what civilians consume. hamas can’t control what israel does to terrorize Palestinians in Gaza. what they can do is retaliate with what they have.
did you think israel was helping innocent Palestinians by keeping them in an open concentration camp for 18 years? did you think israel was helping innocent Palestinians by allowing illegal settlers in the West Bank to steal their land and kill civilians? please enlighten me when israel has ever helped Palestinians at all it’s astonishing
Hamas 100% has control and it’s super telling when we start treating Arabs like Children. Hamas controls if they use uniforms or not, Hamas controls where their tunnels are located, Hamas controls when they do a terrorist attack on another country, Hamas controls how many rockets they fire into Israel. I agree Israel has autonomy for their actions so does Hamas. The selective acknowledgment of this is gross.
Why are you unable to answer the simple question? Hamas broke a ceasefire on 10/7 by attacking not just military, but gang raping, mutilating, torturing, kidnapping, and burning alive hundreds of innocent civilians in Kibbutzes who dedicated their lives to helping Gazans. They did this for their own financial benefit, fully knowing what would ensue. Their spokespeople said this openly, and that they would repeat it again and again. Can you still not answer the question?
lmfaooo when did i say hamas doesn’t have control over their own actions? like no shit hamas has control, otherwise we wouldn’t be where we are today in Gaza. the difference is they take full responsibility for their actions, good and bad. i’m talking about what israel controls.
i gave my answer already dipshot, you just don’t like it. you don’t seem to understand why hamas would attack anyone in the first place. lemme make it simpler for you: hamas doesn’t act to protect civilians, and neither does the idf. hamas is fighting to resecure control and dominance over Gaza, which israel has consistently threatened to take over the past 18 years. this genocide is their most blatant and gruesome attempt for destroying the Palestinian people and stealing more of their land.
they take full responsibility for october 7th and don’t regret their actions. they don’t have to give up their leadership responsible, that’s not smart given they want to continue fighting. besides israel already knows their leadership and has long before the attack. if they share it publicly it could foil their plans. it sounds to me you need to educate yourself on how military conflicts work…
why would they hand over their leadership that’s dumb af and not how this works. you’re acting like everything started on october 7th even though you should’ve known that israel launched its bloodiest attacks on Palestinians in both Gaza and the West Bank in 2023 even before the attack. october 7th was a retaliation, you know damn well it didn’t exist in a vacuum.
Not defending Israel’s actions at all, but Israel actually gave up control of the Gaza Strip 18 years ago in hopes for peace. The Gaza civil war destroyed most of the infrastructure there and Hamas was elected to govern without there ever being elections afterwards. Israel was not occupying Gaza before Hamas’s attack on Israel.
israel actually didn’t give up control over Gaza. they have had control over land, air, and sea of the strip for 18 years. the concentration camp that is the Gaza strip is surrounded and monitored by IOF personnel. they are the only ones that have control of what enters and exits the strip, besides the tunnels everyone is so focused on. israel controls the airspace and sea above there as well. you should read up on this actually it’s been copiously documented by most news outlets
anyways, israel continued to steal more and more Palestinian land and made Gaza into a concentration camp, killing thousands in the process. and if you don’t think Palestinians attempted to negotiate peacefully with israel after oslo again, you’re wrong. this has been a long, long time coming. to fundamentally misunderstand how years of torture and violent disrespect can create such a despicable situation is to misunderstand humanity itself.
I’m talking about what Hamas wants I don’t gaf if they want to keep fighting they shouldn’t keep fighting that’s my point. No I don’t need to educate myself you’re just too restarted to know the difference between a justification and explanation and you just conflate the two when it’s convenient for you.
Crazy how Hamas broke the ceasefire in n 10/7 despite 2023 prior to 10/7 being named the deadliest year for Palestinian children doesn’t sound like much of a ceasefire unless ceasefire to you means Israel can kill unlimited Palestinians but if there’s any retaliation then the ceasefire is broken
well i’m talking about israel so you can stop having this conversation with me bc im not here to tell you how to feel about hamas, just that you understand why it exists. you don’t like my explanations bc it feels “too sympathetic”. i can’t please you unless i put hamas and israel on the same playing field, which i will never do. hamas exists bc of israel’s actions, period. sorry not sorry.
So true I said Arabs shouldn’t be treated like Children I must be pro genocide. Every “pro pali” person is such a coward you guys can’t handle the simplest criticism without hiding behind dead Palestinians it’s so gross and weird. Imagine if I just spammed anti antisemitism every time you guys criticized Israel.
“Pro pali”? Yikes tell us how you really feel about Palestinians. Also what’s there for me to concede? You & I both agree that Israel is the one ruining the peace talks you act like you deserve an award for that but that’s just the truth. Israel is committing a genocide & I think genocide is back so what do you want me to concede to?
Actually yes. Colonialism still has deep impacts on the world and if you can’t se that then you are further right than I thought. Hamas has autonomy I never claimed they didn’t but their actions have to be viewed in context. Israel has been commuting atrocities on Palestinians for almost 100 years. It would be insane if they didn’t fight back.
No you just like seeing them gunned down while they try to get food. The state of Israel is a terrorist state engaging in genocide, ethnic cleansing, and the violation of international law. The US and tbh most of the western world is complicit, if not an active participant, in these actions. The government of Israel must be hes accountable just as the Nazis were.
I never said colonialism doesn’t have deep impacts on the world. This rest of this discussion is just going to be you inventing my positions isn’t it? My point is just bc past actors did I think that doesn’t completely take away the autonomy of current actors. Yeah again I’ve already talked about this I agree with your guys explanation I don’t agree with every justification you guys have given.
My bad you’re right when discussing Israel’s current actions which are a genocide I have a bad habit of focusing too much on the genocide. I need to focus on why the Palestinians are in the wrong for resisting Israel’s genocide & why Israel feels the need to do a genocide against the Palestinians sounds like you would prefer that from us
Saying the Palestinian people are bad in this conflict is just propaganda from the idf. But saying Hamas is and imo shouldn’t be a hot take most Palestinians didn’t even have a say in this government. Whilst that of the idf would make the SS blush at certain times with how inhumane they are in their war.
I mean if that’s what you believe f critical analysis am I right. Either way one side is currently doing a genocide which is Israel & we should all be against the side doing a genocide which for some crazy reason people can’t seem to agree on although I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised considering that there where people who supported the Nazis as well unfortunately
I agree there’s a connection I’m saying the connection is irrelevant to my point bc Hamas still has autonomy over their actions. It’s like if someone murdered another person we could explain that behavior by their poor up bringing maybe they came from a disadvantaged household ect, we would still hold that person morally accountable. Thats the difference between an explanation and a justification that’s what I keep trying to explain but it’s going over everyones head apparently.
The one thing I’ll agree with you on is that 10/7 was horrific & the loss of innocent life isn’t justified. My thing is I also acknowledge it’s the response to decades of abuse at the hands of Israel & the only way to stop such acts is to stop Israel’s abuse. Once it’s all over go ahead & try Hamas members who killed innocent people in Hague but until then it’s kinda dumb to make that the focus
I’m not saying make it the focus. I think obviously at this point Israel is the main problem in this situation. The insane rhetoric on here needs to be addressed regardless I’ve seen people unironically calling for the death of every Israeli on here. To me it feels like you can’t even discuss a morally good end to this conflict if the other person won’t even concede that terrorism is bad.
I don’t think slavery is analogue bc Hamas (using that analogy) would be like the slave who wants worse slavery to make the slaver look bad. Hamas does everything it can to prompt Israel and to have as many civilian casualties as possible. They have tunnels under civilian building, they use civilian clothing, they use civilian infrastructure.
You & Bibi tried to use that photo of the British appointed & controlled Grand Mufti as a way to demonize the Palestinians & justifying the atrocities being committed against them. When Bibi did it he was rightfully called out by holocaust historians for doing holocaust revisionism
As for as people calling for the death of all Israelis while I personally believe that’s wrong no one was or is doing that in this thread so it’s kinda pointless to bring up here in my opinion. As for the Hamas thing Israel is occupying Gaza which I feel like you should know so idk what you mean by people wearing civilian clothes they freaking live there. The whole human shields thing is IDF propaganda that you’re regurgitating. If Hamas genuinely wants as many Palestinians to die then why would
They bother being the only ones actually trying to get a permanent ceasefire? Also why does Israel keep attacking places where Hamas isn’t even at if you believe the human shields stuff none of that makes sense. As for my analysis being one sided I just personally don’t believe in both siding a genocide Israel has the power to end the genocide. Israel can end the genocide not the Palestinians theres no such thing as both sides when discussing a genocide
I literally never said that. I just simply put the picture and referenced the pogroms in the Middle East that killed and displaced over 1 million Jews. The grand mufti was very complicit. Majority of the antisemitic violence was not perpetrated by palestinians. A real photograph during the Holocaust isn’t Holocaust revisionism you fucking moron
It's not pointless I think most people on this thread would at least downplay that as not that bad of an opinion. I feel strongly about this whenever we're playing the weird conflation game with justifications and explanations. It doesn't matter if they live there, combat troops are supposed to distinguish themselves from civilians to limit civilian casualties. It's not IDF propaganda we can over a specific claim if you want.
They wanted a ceasefire after them and their local allies had been completely destroyed along with the majority of their leadership. Israel attacking somewhere Hamas isn't doesn't mean Hamas doesn't use human shields that doesn't even logically follow. I'm not asking you to both side a genocide I'm asking to holistically analyze the situation you can use the word genocide as a thought stopping cliche if you like.
I’m sorry but I strongly disagree. I bring up uniforms because you can’t go into someone’s house & shoot everyone & claim well they weren’t wearing a uniform in their home that sounds stupid you also bring up reducing civilian casualties like Israel has actively been trying to reduce civilian casualties which only ticks me off that you would even hint at that given what the IDF has been doing it’s honestly ridiculous. I mean Hamas legit reached out about a ceasefire 8 days after 10/7 so are you
I’m refusing to do a what aboutisms until we actually discuss what I brought up. Does Hamas not use civilian clothing if so is that bad? Im not hinting at anything I’m being as specific and blatant as possible. I know you guys want me to have these horrible opinions so we can morally grandstand on that. You can just ask me my opinions on things you don’t have to guess what I’m hinting at. I would prefer we had an actual dialogue.
No I don’t want you repeating IDF propaganda that’s a dumb assumption I’m against the genocide so the last thing I would want is someone repeating their bs I would genuinely much rather you be unconditionally against genocide. Israel has literally indiscriminately bombed the entire strip they have bombed every hospital, school, church, mosque even so called safe zones. They always use the excuse of human shields even when there is no evidence of such & then there supporters go around repeating
I’m glad we’re doing a whataboutism about the idf bc your point about schools was rlly stupid. Idk I’m not the idf defender, I’m just the terrorism and putting rockets in schools is bad guy. Probably to protect those civilian areas if I had to give an argument, but I have no clue, it’s better than not using a base and just using a school.
but you’re not the “putting military bases in civilian areas is bad”guy? so you think it’s not as bad that civilians will be directly killed if anyone targets those bases than if a guerilla militia (as your nyt article states) places makeshift rockets in a vacant school? yea your assessment sucks.
bc it’s a very obvious military target in a densely populated area that can be attacked. international humanitarian law generally requires parties to take precautions to avoid locating military objectives within or near densely populated areas and to minimize harm to civilians. you’re not putting the same energy towards the idf’s poor choices as you are for hamas and i’m calling you out.
This is the dumbest call out ever if you’re just asking if putting a military base next to civilians is wrong I agree. I assume it has to be somewhere near or somewhere on the route to civilian populations bc that’s what you’re protecting, but if you’re necessarily putting a base near civilian populations then yes that’s wrong. I’m glad we stopped trying to say that’s the same as using a school lmao that was kinda an insane take.
I’ve already said this but I’ll say this again I disagree how Israel has used aid and it’s gross (among other things they’ve done that’s gross). See how I’m able to say two things are bad at the same time? That’s how you give a holistic analysis. I’m telling you this so you stop being the guy who justifies putting rockets in schools.
Ok I’m glad you clarified you’re actually dumber than how I represented you. Do you think using schools unnecessarily puts other schools at risk if there’s some ambiguity about even using schools as military bases? Also you keep throwing in random words to make your argument sound stronger like “vulnerable” is school less vulnerable than a military base lmao. You’re extremely delusional.
that’s not a holistic analysis buddy and i dunno who taught you what that was. you’re supposed to consider ALL interconnected parts as a whole. you selectively choose individual components rather than looking at the bigger picture. you saying “ya israel using aid is bad” doesn’t change the fact that you justify their military actions, which have all been genocidal.
It hasn’t been all genocidal how is using knock bombs genocidal? how is dropping leaflets genocidal? How is allowing any aid in genocidal? I agree some actions they’ve taken are grounds to accuse them of genocide but saying all actions they’ve taken is obviously not true. Also again for the however many times I’ve said this terrorism is still bad regardless. Like I said you can say multiple things are bad at the same time.
do you think putting military bases in civilian areas unnecessarily puts civilian areas at risk if they’re able to be targeted? btw it seems you’re not clear about this but vacant means uninhabited. abandoned. as in civilians are no longer using the school. last time i checked you’re allowed to occupy abandoned buildings (yes, even civilian ones) in armed conflict as long as it falls under the rules of international law. the US did this in Iraq and Afghanistan.
i just told you what they’ve done to be genocidal and you’re choosing to ignore that. doesn’t sound holistic to me at all. harvard released a study saying that hundreds of thousands of people have been killed over the past 2 years. the vast majority of Gaza’s population is about to or already has reached the point of irreversible malnutrition under the supervision of the israeli-controlled GHF, who shoots at them while they’re trying to get aid. what part of that isn’t genocidal?
Are you even reading what I’ve been saying I’ve already answered all of this but ig I can do it again 1. It depends I’m assuming when you’re placing a base you’re considering it’s ability to defend civilian areas as well as distance to civilian populations. unless you can prove they unnecessarily put a base next to a civilian population that’s not super compelling. Also Israel has invested a lot into bomb shelters and missile defense systems this argument is just delusional.
there’s no excuse to be putting a military base in a civilian area. you can protect civilians with local security. when have you ever seen the army pull up to protect your town? we have local law enforcement for that, not the whole military branch. and i suppose that’s the issue, isn’t it? that israel requires military occupation in order to sustain itself? that’s not normal.
you know we’re not under constant attack, right? this only becomes a problem in conflict, which Israel is always in because it continues to illegally occupy Palestinian land and commit genocide. ever heard of passive human shielding? that’s when a military puts bases near civilians to make attacks harder or riskier. even if it’s not intentional (doubtful), it still puts civilians in danger and violates international law.
Blue wave is really just a liberal zionist they claim they aren’t defending Israel by saying yeah some of what they do is bad then in the next breath repeats IDF propaganda to justify their actions and tries to redirect focus & place portions of the blame for Israel’s genocide on people who are powerless to stop it
Yes I'm literally an open liberal Zionist I've made post about how I am a liberal Zionist who's pro two state and is against the current Israeli gov and war. It's not IDF propaganda you keep saying that but whenever I try to go into the actual claims you weirdly go silent. I've said this so many times I just think people are responsible for their actions I blame bad Israeli actions on Israel I blame bad Hamas actions on Hamas l've literally been doing that this entire thread.
the truth is you guys don’t gaf about Palestine. If you did the things I’ve talked about would easy concessions. For you guys it’s just about virtue signaling over the conflict it’s not any real engagement with the fact of the matter. That’s why you guys will defend putting rockets in schools which is the easiest concession ever to make. If you care about real solutions then actually engage with what’s going on.
I thought you said there’s no excuse lol? Anyway again if you want to make this claim compelling prove they purposefully or unnecessarily do this. Like I said I think you want to protect civilian populations that’s why they would be located next to civilian population that seems like the most likely explanation. Idk why Israel would use separate military bases provide air defense and bomb shelters, but this also put their bases to purposefully kill civilians that doesn’t make sense.
You guys? You’re right let me make concessions on my point that genocide is bad & the party doing the genocide needs to stop. You understand how ridiculous that sounds? There you go again trying to both sides a genocide that’s the problem with liberal Zionist you guys act like just because you can admit that Bibi sucks & the settlers are insane you’re somehow on the right side of this situation yet no matter what you still have both sides a genocide.
There is no concessions for me to make genocide is bad always & people doing/defending genocide are bad. What is there for me to concede? Also how dare someone who has the nerve to defend Israel’s mass bombing campaign claim to be the one who truly cares about the Palestinians it’s freaking disgusting
Is putting rockets in schools good or bad? It doesn’t sound ridiculous you’ve just been living in this echo chamber where spamming genocide means you don’t have critically engage with anything. The big difference between you and me is I’ll concede things. If you guys ask me is this Israeli action is bad I’ll say yeah ofc is, but if I ask you guys if putting rockets in school is bad you justify it that’s the big difference.
You keep saying this “both siding genocide” like it’s an argument in no other context would a bad thing justify another bad thing that’s not how the world works. Everyone on here understands this but bc it’s been in this context where have to endlessly virtue signal we can’t admit that.
To make analogous out of this it’s like if someone killed someone’s entire family bc the other person hit them with a hammer. Hitting someone with a hammer is wrong so killing someone’s entire family. This would be like you guys saying I’m both siding killing families bc I said hitting people with hammer is wrong. Your point would be so much stronger if you just said yeah hitting people with hammers is wrong I agree.
Do I think place rockets in an abandoned school justifies Israel blowing up all the schools including the ones that aren’t abandoned no but hey you want to both sides this for some reason. Do you believe rockets in an abandoned school justifies Israel blowing up all the schools including the ones that aren’t abandoned
Our fundamental disagreement stems from the fact that I believe Israel is an apartheid state that’s doing a genocide is there is 0 justification for it. You on the other need to both sides everything since to some degree you believe there is a justification for said actions
Dipshit, im not saying hitting people with hammers is the same as killing families. That’s why I picked those two things to demonstrate the point that one thing can be worse than the other you can still call the other thing wrong. It’s important to focus on that when suddenly everyone is justifying hitting people with hammers.
You keep trying to justify & soften their mass bombing of the entire Gaza Strip which in my opinion is simply just genocide defense. Hell for all I know you don’t even believe Israel is doing a genocide I’m sure if you did you wouldn’t go out of your way to try & justify some of it.
Yeah I just explain to you how you should “”both sides”” situations that doesn’t make you wrong in the context we’re talking about. I know we disagree I’m explaining to you why your argument doesn’t make sense. Thank you for laying out your perception like it’s an argument.
wouldn’t need that many bomb shelters if they knew they wouldn’t be provoking and attacking every country in the middle east. also people wouldn’t want to live in israel if there aren’t bomb shelters or protection considering it constantly provokes and attacks all countries surrounding it. they need settlers to maintain a settler colony. if no one wants to settle there bc they know it’s too dangerous, it will cease to exist. they have to at least give the illusion that it’s safe.
there aren’t excuses, especially for israel. but since you wanna play dumb and continue the whataboutism game, most US military bases aren’t located in or near densely populated civilian areas. and even the ones closer to civilian areas have deliberate fencing and buffer zones. civilian areas are built keeping the military base location in mind. you should know that most bases are in isolation considering you literally live here.
israel has continuously built more and more military bases intentionally in or near already established civilian areas. not in isolation. it’s not normal for a military base to be placed in densely populated areas, and the fact you’re the one making excuses for them is pathetic. again, i’m seeing less of a “holistic analysis” here and more lame excuses for war crimes.
and btw israel knows civilians are easily replaceable. they can propagandize and convince more idiots like you to move there. that propaganda is crashing and burning more and more tho for most ppl that have brain cells and know that it’s a death sentence living in a bloodthirsty settler colony.
why y’all always have to ask the same dumbass question? a country is a recognized political entity with borders, a government, and sovereignty. a settler colony is a project built on taking land from indigenous people through invasion, settlement, and ongoing domination. the difference is that not all countries were built this way, but settler colonies like israel are founded on and continue to depend on the displacement and control of native populations.
you’re misusing the term. settler colonialism isn’t just any oppression, it’s when outsiders move in, replace the indigenous population, and claim the land. china’s repression in tibet and xinjiang is awful, but that doesn’t automatically make every chinese person a settler. same with syria, state violence isn’t settler colonialism unless there’s actual settler replacement. throwing the term around randomly just waters it down and shows you don’t really get what it means.
no i stand by what i said lmfao. every single israeli is a settler. the entirety of israel, not just the illegal settlements in the west bank, is a settler colony. the original zionists established this in their own literature and when they arrived there. it was always a colonization project and will always be one.
That’s not what I asked, I asked if putting rockets in schools was bad. Putting rockets in schools 100% justifies blowing up that school. Do you think if you fire rockets in a school you can now just kill infinite people with rockets? I also just think the very selective way you engage with this topic is super telling.
See how you just moved the goal post to it’s not safe to it is safe but it’s bad that it’s safe bc that perpetuates Israel? Which is it? can Israel survive despite it having wars bc it’s so safe or is it unsafe and they don’t care about their civilians? These two positions don’t make sense together pick one.
You started the whataboutism game I was talking about a specific Hamas action you brought it Israel the projection is so funny. It doesn’t matter if most are you said there’s no excuse to have them near populated areas you’re contradicting yourself again. I never said most aren’t we have to run through every bad faith tactic.
I know what your claim is I’m asking you to prove it. Why are they doing it? Prove they’re doing it intentionally or unnecessarily you keep just repeating your claim like it’s an argument. What do you mean you just said the us puts them next to populated areas? If most U.S. bases aren’t next to populated areas that means some are. I’m not making excuses I’m just asking you prove your claim.
I answered your questions already you just didn’t like my answers & don’t want to answer my question because from the sounds of it you don’t believe that Israel is committing a genocide which is why you want to both sides everything. Imagine trying to both sides the Nazis it’s ridiculous & you wouldn’t do it.
Wild of you to call me a dipshit because I believe Israel bombing every single church, mosque, sniping kids, setting up concentration camps, killing aid works, killing journalists, creating a man made famine, shooting people trying to get food etc etc etc is a genocide & there is no both sides to genocide. Honestly you’re a disgusting piece of 💩which isn’t surprising considering you’re a self proclaimed Zionist there’s no reasoning with people with your mindset because at the end of day you’ll
No you didn’t you said that doesn’t justify blowing up a school . My question wasn’t does that justify blowing up a school my question was is it wrong? But I know you can’t answer questions honestly. You literally agreed to my hammer analogy idk why you keep saying “both sides” like it’s argument I just explain why that doesn’t make sense. You can still call other bad actions bad.
Try to find some reason to justify why Israel has to do some of this which is just a way to justify their genocide which you’re too much of a freaking coward to just admit to & instead have to try & pretend that you’re against it. It’s an anonymous app just say it with your chest instead of pussyfooting around it. Don’t believe Israel is currently committing a genocide yes or no
I said it don’t justify blowing up all the schools which is what Israel did. Your question is stupid because it implies that Israel’s response to finding weapons in an abandoned school which was to blow up all the schools including the non abandoned ones was somehow valid. There weren’t weapons there so no it’s fucking wrong. We found a loaded gun in the abandon house so let blow up the entire neighborhood & kill everyone in it is a insane response & you’re a horrible person for trying 2 justify
Rich to say I’m this far from reality when you’re the one trying to defend Israel. Also I’m not using the word genocide to defend myself I’m using the word genocide because that’s why Israel is doing. You’re the one detached from reality if you can’t see that what’s happening is genocide. Part of the reason Israel is dropping so fast in popularity is not only because they are live streaming a genocide which is any halfway moral person would be against which you’re not but they’re defenders
Sounds insane & normal people listen to them & go these people are insane & disgusting yet ironically Israel’s defenders believe they are making solid arguments & wonder why it’s not moving people. It’s because you guys look & sound insane to everyone else. To anyone who’s not already a zionst you sound insane
You literally did just use genocide to defend yourself I just specifically stated why you were a dipshit then you pretended like it was bc you’re anti genocide. People aren’t detached from reality bc they’re pro one side or the other people are detached from reality when you they can’t follow or answer simple things like you can’t. I’ve been criticizing Israel this entire time you guys haven’t conceding anything.
Hey piece of 💩 I don’t see an issue with putting rockets in an abandoned school. It’s fucking abandoned & Idk why you’re trying to treat like a school full of people & Idk why that’s the main focus when Israel blew up all the schools including the ones with people & no weapons. Your whole premise is bad faith but that’s to be expected from a Zionist idk why I thought you would be capable of anything else.
Ok so you don’t think it’s wrong just say that idk why you were being that cowardly. I’ll tell why it’s wrong now it’s my turn to morally grandstand bc you actually just gave a disgusting opinion. It’s wrong bc you’re creating ambiguity about if schools are being used for military purposes that puts schools at risk. Also keep selectively ignoring this part but the school was surrounded by populated schools with children. Not only that this had happened multiple times.
I haven’t conceded anything because I have nothing to concede. Israel is committing a genocide & I’m unconditionally against genocide & for Palestinian emancipation. Criticism isn’t the same as denouncing it. There’s MAGA idiots critical of some of Trumps action yet they still support them. You saying that sure Israel does some bad things while still defending them is meaningless
How is it bad faith to say putting rockets in schools is wrong? You can’t have it both ways you can’t say it’s wrong to blow up schools but also you can put rockets in schools. You don’t have a real moral principles in this conflict all of this is just virtue signaling like I knew it was.
Are you freaking stupid? “ You don’t think it’s wrong just say that” dumbass I said I don’t think it’s wrong I literally did say that. This is what I mean you’re using this to justify destroying all the schools & doing mass killing of civilians. By your implied logic Israel’s mass bombing of the Gaza Strip is justified because what if there’s weapons somewhere better safe then sorry & just bomb every & kill everyone. Typical Zionist trying to justify the mass killing of the Palestinians you guys
bc it’s an abandoned building not a school. i said this in a previous comment but the US literally used abandoned civilian structures in other countries like iraq and afghanistan for their own military objectives. it’s legal under international law why are you so pressed about this instead of the fact that israel literally raided and took over actively used hospitals in Gaza as bases themselves
Not only am I critical of Israel I don’t support the current war or government. Again I’ll just tell you what I believe you don’t have to make it up. I’m not asking you to say genocide is bad I can just call you a dipshit and listen to you virtue signal about genocide I don’t care. I’m asking you concede the simplest thing like is putting rockets in schools wrong.
No you didn’t you’ve been running from that question I can see why bc you feel like you have to bite the bullet on something that stupid. That would be an easy question for anyone who isn’t brain broken. I like how every time I’m critical of you just ramble about Israel. I’ll just keep hammering this point bc we keep letting you off the hook.
That’s just a bs excuse considering that Israel has bombed all infrastructures & targets civilians. Also idk how you view that as biting the bullet your question doesn’t justify Israel’s response no matter how much you believe it does & anyone who’s not a Zionist with Israel’s cock up their ass would have the same response as me. Also yeah of course my focus is on Israel they’re the ones doing the genocide if you’re anti genocide is a stupid waste of time to focus on something or someone
Saying that putting rockets in schools isn’t wrong is a crazy bullet to bite. Bro you’re lost I’m glad you’ve never talked to an actual pro IDF person you would get destroyed in any convo. That’s fine to focus on Israeli you should still be able to say putting rockets in a unrwa school surrounded by Childeren is wrong that’s been my entire point. You not being able to admit that defeats any criticism you have of Israel bc shows you aren’t principally for anything you preach about.
they didn’t clear the school, it wasn’t being used in general. israel was already claiming that hamas was using schools even prior to that discovery without any proof, which btw if you read the full article they didn’t even find rockets in there after doing an investigation.
🌊 whole argument legit boils down to the IDF claimed without proof there were rockets in an ABANDONED building so they had to destroy all the buildings even the ones WITH PEOPLE & if you disagree then you’re a dishonest dipshit. You don’t understand had no choice but to make Gaza look like this
An abandoned building isn’t the same as one with people so unless I’m dishonest I’m not going to treat it the same. The IDF has been caught so many times lying about stuff like its inane. Lastly have you’ve not seen pictures of what the Gaza Strip looks like like you have to be a genuinely evil person to dedicate so much time to trying to justify it
It surrounded by schools and was again being used by unrwa who do you think found the rockets unrwa staff. I agree the IDF have lied about stuff that’s irrelevant to anything we’re talking about. Again im against the war I’m against Hamas doing evil shit maybe I should send you pic of Oct 7th and virtue signal about that.
if you’re that pissed about hamas only allegedly using a school you should be livid that israel has explicitly been using all kinds of civilian infrastructure. let’s not forget how many actively in use hospitals they raided and how many ppl they killed to take control of a civilian facility
nope. human rights watch did a report on this: “Israel: In-Depth Look at Gaza School Attacks”. no tunnels were found under that facility. the israeli military even tried to make claims to justify their presence like the presence of weapons or being attacked, but they were all false or unsubstantiated. nice try tho. took you long enough to find a good excuse for israel to do the thing you’re so ardently criticizing. is it only okay when israel does it? do they have moral superiority?
that’s an entirely different facility than the one i presented. i didn’t even mention al-shifa. btw, a former israeli PM admitted built those bunkers in the 80’s by israel. they actually already knew there was underground infrastructure there, so they could obviously make it seem like they discovered it.
Wdym that’s just me being honest I think witness testimony only goes so far I’m sorry I don’t just immediately think they’re guilty idk. Bring a better case maybe I’ll agree with you, but until then I’m gonna be honest. Like in your mind IDF=bad in my mind bad actions= bad if they’re found doing bad actions that’s what I need to make a moral claim.
Wdym read my comment lmao. My point is witness testimony only goes so far and the burden of proof is on those who bring the claim. I’m not against them bc they’re speaking out against the IDF I’m just saying witness testimony can only concretely prove so much I would give this take for any party that’s being accused just on witness testimony I agree its suspicious. If the IDF doesn’t do a full investigation that would be wrong.
not you saying wdym as if you don’t know exactly what i mean lmfao. ppl who are being totally honest don’t typically have to say it out loud. you don’t get to define what is hard evidence and what isn’t based on the vibes. after the initial claim is made and evidence is presented,the burden of proof lays with the party that has the most definitive evidence. they couldn’t provide reasonable doubt. sounds like someone isn’t gonna be a lawyer one day.
That’s true I know what you mean you just aren’t saying anything compelling. Wdym do you think witness testimony is always correct esp during active combat how is that vibes based? That’s not how any criminal cases work unless you have a source that says it’s different for war crimes I found a source that implies the opposite. This doesn’t even make sense do you think in combat they’re gathering evidence constantly to prove they haven’t done war crimes?
#1 there’s no point in having a back in forth with 🌊 dude is legit saying the burden of proof isn’t on the IDF who’s making the claim which makes no sense. They’re also saying they treat everyone equally despite them routinely using information given by the IDF as fact & justification despite the IDF not backing said claims with evidence. Claims that making Isreal doing a genocide all about Isreal is wrong & that Isreal doing a genocide should equally be about the “bad” actions of the
Palestinians. Doesn’t call Israel’s actions a genocide & views calling it such just an attempt a moral superiority. Dudes a self admitted Zionist so there’s no reasoning with them . In their mind they are making perfect sense & like the vast majority of Israel defenders they can’t see why most people in world have such a negative view of Israel & the people constantly defending Israel & are unable to process the fact that outside of other Zionist their arguments just make Israel defenders look
Yes and his source is making a counter claim I’m not saying the IDF claim is correct I’m saying you can be unsure about a specific case and question both claims, which I did. I know this is Israel so you guys are delusion but pretend we’re not talking about Israel, it s generally bad to punish people for unproven claims that doesn’t mean a counter claim is true. I literally only referenced info from the source they provided good cope though.
You don’t make claims about Israel about Israel, that’s the problem you make cases about Hamas about Israel that’s one of your go to bad tactics when you’re dealing with a hard topic. Also I’ve explicitly said they aren’t equally in fact I’ve told you explicitly repeatedly it doesn’t have to be equal and it isn’t equal you can care about bad actions regardless if there’s worse actions. Everyone understands but bc you guys are brain broke on I/P you have to pretend like you can’t comprehend this
I think when you guys make the claim yes it is a claim of moral superiority bc you guys aren’t principled about anything. I have a negative view of Israel lmao but ok. I think it’s funny I’m being called the delusional one while you routinely imagine claims I’ve never made but what’s a guy to do?
