Hamas fights in defence of its land, Israel slaughters children to gain more.
The IDF are monsters.
How did OCT 7 work out for defending their land so far?
Well it’s got the whole world to see what scum Israel is, so effective on that front. Probably the most effective thing in helping the Palestinian in decades as they were largely forgotten about globally and slowly dying under Israeli apartheid.
I just dont understand how hammas escaped the “scum” title and only israel got it from that oct 7 “incident”
But basically you are saying its good they killed so many people regardless of age, gender, nationality… because it showed the world that Israel of all of this is the scum. Yep… good logic.
They hide under residential neighborhoods, storing their weapons in miles of tunnels and in houses, mosques, sofas — even a child’s bedroom — blurring the boundary between civilians and combatants.
So they fight like US revolutionaries, the insurgents who fought back against nazi invaders in WWII, and pretty much every population that is being overwhelmed by superior numbers during wartime.
Why is that a bad thing when defending against invaders? Like yeah, it would be pretty shitty for invaders to do that, but pretty reasonable as a defensive tactic.
I hope you do understand that all you just said totally contradicts the genocide narrative , right?
You can say its not a bad thing, but then you cant complain about the high civilian casualties.
No, it doesn’t contradict anything about the genocide.
Israel didn’t need to completely destroy infrastructure and also deny foreign aid because of how Hamas fights. How Hamas fights doesn’t justify the IDF killing reporters, or the unarmed children being gunned in the streets, or strapping injured Palestinians to hoods, or atracking aid workers that the IDF knew were coming through, or the most likely true reports of torture. We know all of this is intentional by how Israel acts, and they are using the excuse that civilian casualties are happening despite the IDF being careful, but they keep killing dozens of civilians and getting caught lying about things which is why they are not trustworthy.
Plus Israeli senior leadership has made and keeps making statements consistent with genocide that align with their actions. All of that would still be genocide even if Hamas fought some other ‘acceptsble’ way.
So let me ask you this, Do you think Abdalla Aljamali the “innocent” journalist would still be dead and all his children and family given they wouldnt have held Israeli hostages IN THEIR FUCKING HOUSE with their children separated only by carpet and sheets?
I think he would have, and all his family and children would have lived today.
Now explain away the IDF killing Issam Abdallah who was standing by a news van in Jordan.
Or the attack on the World Central Kitchen aid convoy.
Guess they shouldn’t have had hostages in their homes!
The attack on the central kitchen convoy was a horrible mistake. The government itself said they were sorry. I personally feel ashamed of that incident.
Not sure about the first one.
I dont see though how these two contradict what I said or take any blame from hammas fighting within civilian population on purpuse. It can indeed explain that because of how hammas fights the IDF is on the edge and mistakes are bound to happen.
