Gaza terrorism by Israel

Destroying buildings housing weapons before beginning a ground assault? Yes, that is common practice. Thankfully Israel urges citizens to leave those areas prior to attacking them.

No, countries do not send in troops to clear buildings before attacking the buildings in order to make it safer to send in ground troops. That is not logical.

They warn citizens to move from buildings identified as being used for military purposes. Then they attack those structures. Then send in troops.

Israel is not asking to occupy the land. Israel is trying to stop the killing of its citizens by a ln enemy who wants to occupy their land.

 

Lol.....yea, right.

Send in people to go floor to floor making sure children were not left behind and then take out the buildings to make it safe to send in ground troops.

Yes....makes sense...

 

Bottom line - Israel was attacked. Hamas (the governing body of the Gaza Strip) sent rockets into Israel targeting civilians. They sent Hamas soldiers to slaughter civilians at a music festival celebrating a holiday. They sent soldiers to kill women and children. They decapitated children. They kidnapped people.

Israel responded by announcing that they were going to root out and destroy Hamas. They sent flyers, messages by cellular public announcement, television announcements pleading with citizens to vacate buildings Hamas were using for terroristic activities.

Israel attacked these buildings stating that they were preparing to send in ground troops.


Israel never attacked Palestinian unprovoked. But over the past decade they have lost civilians due to repeated attacks. This was the worse attack.

Israel is neighbored by people who have purposed to eradicate the Jewish nation.

Israel is justified in its response.


People who present Israel as the perpetrator are antisemitic whether they admit to it or not. The reason is they deny that Jewish people, Jewish children, Jewish babies, are worth defending. They would be more content to allow the extinction of the Jewish race than see war where there are always civilian casualties.

We are seeing a rise of Nazism (not using this as a fallacy, but literally the rise of Nazism). Decades ago I would not dream US and Canadian citizens, much less Christians, would side with terrorists over Israel. But here we are.

 

Ok......let's be more honest

Your complaint is that Israel targeted buildings used to launch rockets at Israel.

Then Israel warned civilians to leave other areas used by the terrorists because they would strike them before going in on the ground.

Your objection has nothing to do with saving the lives of children as the result would be more lives lost. It has to do with the devaluation of a race of people.

 

Um....Israel (the country we are talking about....that is defending itself against Hamas) is comprised of Jesus (mostly), Muslims, and other religious sects. Their military is comprised of Jews, Muslims, and other groups of people.

I am not saying this is a holy war. I am saying that Israel is justified in its defence.

Yes.....citizens will be killed. This happens in war. But unlike Hamas, Israel is not specifically targeting civilians and decapitating children.

I know you would rather have a war where people are not killed. I would as well. But then there is reality.

Israel needs to do what it can to prevent as much as possible these attacks in the future.

You disagree, but your solution leads to even more deaths. That is not logical.

And the whole point of Hamas' use of civilians is to get them killed. People (like you here) will depend on Hamas for their information. Civilians will be killed.

Israel has urged civilians to evacuate. Hamas has urged them to remain.

 

"Hatred of Jews throughout the world will turn people against Israel every single time, no matter what they do or how they do it."
​

 

Sure they can say they are defending themselves. The Hamas military structure uses civilian buildings.

The difference is between Hamas' targeting civilians and Israel killing civilians while targeting military structures.

If Israel were to target civilians their focus would not be specifically on areas known to house the Hamas military structure.

Look ...you are anti-Israel. I got that even before you based your argument on Hamas statements. That is your right. I have no problem with your position.

But you are also posting odd things....like have Israel enter the Hamas controlled areas, go door to door making sure no civilians are in buildings, then target the buildings so that ground troops can enter.


What would I like to see?

I would like to see the civilian Palestinians evacuate out of North Gaza. I realize this would require relocating about 15 to 20 miles south (preferably more), but it would be the ideal result.

Then I would like to see Israel level the area, remove all of Hamas' infrastructure. Then I'd like to see another government installed that will not choose to attack and kill Israel's civilians every few months.


I believe that is better than your solution, which is peace through genocide.
