This is a Palestinian women with her dead child who was killed by an Israeli air strike.
She blames Hamas not Israel.
Notice the moment she blames Hamas she's grabbed by the face and silenced.
Either the man is trying to protect her because he knows Hamas will kill her for bad PR or the man is worried about PR and doesn't want the camera to see her being honest.
You mean yesterday when you said "They were elected democratically and a majority of the population supports them." you may have been wrong and that the majority of Palestinians weren't even alive during the last parliamentary election and don't support Hamas? *shocking* that your naive take could be wrong. *shocking*
People born in 2006 couldn't vote today either you idiot. The people who voted Hamas into power are the parents and grandparents of the children. They voted for violence and the violence they voted for is impacting their children.
Sucks for the kids but the parents voted for it.
At the end of the day the blame falls squarely on Hamas and idiots like you who keep them in business.
That’s the single most idiotic argument you’ve made yet (and most of your arguments are idiotic). The children are dying because Israel is depriving them of food, water, electricity, and freedom of movement - and then dropping bombs on them.
Your anti-semitism is clouding your judgment.
Hamas's endless attacks on Israel are the cause of the lack of food, water, electricity, and freedom of movement.
Israel is dropping bombs on Hamas and Hamas surrounds itself with women and children to win the support of naive imbeciles like yourself.
Perhaps if the Israelis were burning the palestinian kids alive while they gang raped their mothers you'd support them...
Hamas can only exist with people like you willing to support them.
Yeah there’s nothing Israel can do. They have to bomb the women and children. Otherwise the violence will never end

I’ve been to more Bar Mitzvahs and Bat Mitzvahs than I can count. I’ve also fasted for Ramadan and shared Iftsr with my Muslim friends. So no, antisemitism is not clouding my judgment any more than blatant racism clouds yours. Israel alone is responsible for every bomb they drop on Gaza, just as Hamas is responsible for every rocket it fires into Israel. Israel is also responsible for cutting off food, water, and electricity to Gaza. You can spend the rest of your days trying to justify Israel’s collective punishment of the Palestinian people, but it’s still a war crime - regardless of how brutal Hamas’ actions were.
It’s also a potential war crime if Israel is dropping bombs on Hamas while they surround themselves with civilians (just like it’s a war crime to surround yourself with civilians). Israel doesn’t HAVE to drop bombs on Hamas and kill civilians. They are choosing to do so, regardless of the civilian cost.
Hamas exists because Israel keeps radicalizing the people of Palestine by bombing them, cutting off their access to food and water, and building illegal settlements on their land. Maybe Israel should stop doing those things.

Now you're using the "ive got lots of black friends" argument.
LOL!
It's NOT a war crime to bomb military targets even if your enemy is using human shields. It IS a war crime to use human shields.
Again, you whine and preen about what a moral and wonderful person you think you are but you can't provide a better or feasible alternative to what Israel is doing.
Yeah there’s nothing Israel can do. They have to bomb the women and children. Otherwise the violence will never end
Hamas has declared it will continue to attack non-stop and plans to carry out many more attacks like the one on 10/7.
You people whine about the non-Jewish children being killed but not a single one of you has proposed any viable alternative to what Israel is doing.
I’m not whining. I’m agreeing with you. They need to bomb the crap out of Gaza regardless of how many civilians are killed. As long as they are warned ahead of time it’s fair game in my eyes. Whatever it takes to root out vermin Hamas I’m for. Emphatically for

Bombing an area where you know civilians to be present sure as hell can be a war crime:
In the conduct of military operations, constant care shall be taken to spare the civilian population, civilians and civilian objects.
With respect to attacks, the following precautions shall be taken: (a) those who plan or decide upon an attack shall: (i) do everything feasible to verify that the objectives to be attacked are neither civilians nor civilian objects and are not subject to special protection but are military objectives within the meaning of paragraph 2 of Article 52 and that it is not prohibited by the provisions of this Protocol to attack them; (ii) take all feasible precautions in the choice of means and methods of attack with a view to avoiding, and in any event to minimizing, incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians and damage to civilian objects; (iii) refrain from deciding to launch any attack which may be expected to cause incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians, damage to civilian objects, or a combination thereof, which would be excessive in relation to the concrete and direct military advantage anticipated;
It’s not at all clear that Israel has met this bar. Bombing an entire apartment building because you think there may be a Hamas terrorist in Apt. 3b is a war crime.
Sure. Israel can pack the f*ck up and go away. It didn’t exist in 1900, the world would be just fine if it didn’t exist now. Perfectly viable option and saves the US taxpayer billions of dollars per year. More realistically, they could stop building hundreds of illegal settlements on Palestinian land for starters. What’s abundantly clear is that Israel’s current policies aren’t doing jack sh*t to keep Israelis safe AND are only perpetuating the conflict by radicalizing the next generation of Palestinians. So, unless you’re promoting the genocide of all Palestinians, it’s not clear that you have any sort of solution either.

I linked the video of the Palestinian women raging at Hamas over the body of her dead child.
I would hope the number of Palestinians like her who understand that Hamas is the reason for the death and destruction will increase after this but if Israel is just killing civilians without any consideration this won't happen.
It's important to remember that the images of carnage coming out of Gaza are Hamas propaganda designed to manipulate stupid people like Troll and Shoko. Half the images are from Syria.
Israel is very careful about killing civilians and civilians are only being killed in large numbers when Hamas surrounds targets with civilians.
Now you're using the "ive got lots of black friends" argument.

Feasible precautions include warning the people the building will be bombed. Israel does this. Killing Hamas leaders saves Israeli lives. It's not excessive injury or damage when you're saving the lives of your own citizens by destroying the target.
When you link things that destroy your argument you look like an idiot.
Nice to see you admit your from the river to the sea stance. I bet you're a big hit at thousands of bar and bat mitzvahs you claim to attend.
There is no solution that involves Hamas as (like you apparently) Hamas is violently opposed to any solution that involves Jews with a pulse between the river and the sea.
Under Israeli "genocide" the palestinian population has exploded.
Even Saudi Arabia is sick of Hamas and the Palestinian whining. They were about to normalize relations with Israel which would have been a huge leap forward toward peace in the region. So right on cue Hamas set out to get as many Palestinians as possible killed so they could parade them in front of cameras and manipulate idiots like yourself.

Reading isn’t your forte, is it:
take all feasible precautions in the choice of means and methods of attack with a view to avoiding, and in any event to minimizing, incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians and damage to civilian objects;
Maybe airstrikes aren’t the right means of attack to minimize Palestinian casualties, and they sure seem to damage a lot of civilian objects.
refrain from deciding to launch any attack which may be expected to cause incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians, damage to civilian objects, or a combination thereof, which would be excessive in relation to the concrete and direct military advantage anticipated;
Again, destroying an entire apartment building because there may be somebody in Hamas in one apartment is excessive.
“Killing Hamas leaders saves Israeli lives.” Great. Not killing Hamas leaders by bombing civilians saves a greater number of Palestinian lives. Getting rid of Israel completely saves lots and lots of Palestinian lives. Does that make it the best course of action?
Of course it can still be excessive injury or damage when you're saving the lives of your own citizens by destroying the target. I can’t think of a single cogent argument where that wouldn’t be the case. There would be no need for the Geneva Convention if countries could just say, “we nuked them because they killed one of our soldiers and we thought they may do it again”.
Hezbollah says they will make a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT TOMORROW, Hopefully it will be to be everybody has decided to stop the War and live Happily Ever After.
Now your stupidity and ignorance is limiting you...
Airstrikes are the safest way to destroy a target. Israel is under ZERO obligation to sacrifice the lives of its ground forces to spare the lives of Hamas's human shields. The war crime is using the human shields.
You use enough force to ensure the target is destroyed. That's not excessive.
Your anti-semitic fantasy about deleting Israel is never going to happen. Get over it.
There's only been 2 nukes dropped in history. Stupid people call it inhumane. Intelligent people understand that the bombs saved MILLIONS of lives.
When Hamas goes on international television and vows that Hamas will carry out as many 10/7 style attacks as it can every single Hamas leader is marked for death. Full stop.
You don't give a damn about Palestinian lives. If you did you wouldn't be here going to bat for Hamas.

Israeli is 100% obligated to sacrifice their ground forces to avoid the unnecessary death of Palestinian civilians. That’s the whole point of the Geneva convention that I have been quoting to you, but that you are unwilling to understand because it doesn’t support your point of view.
I agree that using human shields is a war crime. Ignoring the presence of those human shields and bombing anyways can ALSO be a war crime. Again, that’s the whole point of the section of the Geneva Convention that I have been quoting, and that you have been willfully ignoring.

Only in your diseased anti-semitic mind is Israel obligated to sacrifice the lives of its own people to deal with Hamas using human shields.
Article 27 of the Hague Conventions demands that belligerents take “all necessary steps … to spare as far as possible edifices devoted to religion, art, science, and charity, hospitals, and places where the sick and wounded are collected, provided they are not used at the same time for military purposes.”
Hamas uses hospitals, mosques, and schools for military purposes.
Did you also know that Hamas — which is an Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” — would probably not exist today were it not for the Jewish state...

Great. You found something that’s completely irrelevant to Israel’s obligation to minimize civilian casualties - including choosing courses of action that may be more dangerous to its own soldiers.
p.s. Not giving Israel a free pass to commit war crimes doesn’t make me an antisemite. Your obvious hatred of Palestinians for simply existing does make you a racist though.

You claim that I only hold the position that I hold because I'm a racist and then claim "straw man" when I point out that palestinians aren't a race.
It would be equally idiotic for me to call you a racist for your hatred of the Russians.
Palestine isn't a country. It has never been a country.
No one on earth would have called themselves "palestinian" 100 years ago.
I'm judging the 2 sides based on the morality of their behavior.
You anti-Israeli idiots think there's 3 sides for some reason. Any Israeli citizen that's raped or tortured to death had it coming for being Israeli and any palestinian who gets killed because Hamas had a bomb factory next to their apartment is an innocent victim of racism and Israeli aggression.
