At least 198 Palestinians killed in Israeli air raids; Hamas attack kills 70 Israelis, ‘big number’ also captured.
At least 198 Palestinians killed in Israeli air raids; Hamas attack kills 70 Israelis, ‘big number’ also captured.
the primary reason Hamas has political power and the political support to attack Israel in this manner is because Israel:
you can and should condemn Hamas, but it is inarguable that Israel routinely does worse—overwhelmingly to people just as innocent as the ones Hamas is murdering—which is what makes attacks like this inevitable. you cannot do what Israel does and not expect the outcome to be violence, and it is incumbent on Israel, who holds all the actual power in this dynamic, to break the cycle and stop using every terrorist attack perpetuated against it as an excuse to roll innocent heads.
Cool so I respond to an antisemite saying that Israel refusing to supply power to a state that just declared war on it is punitive, and your response was to say it’s Israel’s fault.
Dear God lemmy today is really showing it’s colors
Criticism of the actions of Israel’s government does not make one an antisemite.
So glad to see this sentiment supported on beehaw. It’s a shame that people equate the two.
i mean, yeah. Netanyahu is saying he’s going to basically reduce Gaza to rubble when 99% of Gazans are innocents and can’t leave Gaza because Israel is blockading them. Israeli bombs have killed far more innocents than actual terrorists in the Strip as seen in my citation. this is the exact behavior that allows Hamas to thrive. Israel, as a state, has the power to not do this and to seek more productive options—but does it anyways because it simply doesn’t care about the humanity of Palestinians and considers all of them acceptable collateral damage in killing Hamas members.
Name-calling (accusing someone of being an antisemite) is NOT nice. We have one rule, here at Beehaw, to be(e) nice. This is your only warning. Enjoy your seven day vacation from Beehaw.
Would be good to just defederate lemmy.ml
This take is braindead enough that you should probably delete your account. That shit is just straight up embarrassingly bad.
