Hamas went into Gaza and stockpiled weapons there, and if you don’t go in and get them — more Israelis will die. Hamas went into schools/hospitals and put in rocket launchers that if you don’t bomb first will bomb Israel — if they do nothing to Gaza then they will continue to be bombed and attacked. Hamas did this on purpose , because when innocent people die in the Gaza they take pictures and use them to fund raise in other countries to buy more weapons and rockets, and those countries give because troublesome young men will go join them in Gaza and stop causing trouble at home. There is no way to dig the terrorist out of Gaza without hurting civilians, and if you don’t do it Israelis will die. That is a better picture of the problem.

Point one: I'd say the holocaust and the exodus of jews from the arab regions is wayyyyyyy more responsible for what the modern Israel has become politically, militarily, ethnically, and culturally. I doubt you'd understand - educate yourself:Point two: No, they didn't create the country, they have supported it for years but this is hugely undermining what the Jews have built since the 1800s. The Palestinians have contributed NOTHING TO THE WORLD BESIDES TERRORISM.
Point 3: i don't really understand this point
point four: Yes, we support democracies that are under terrorist siege. HOw much did we give to Ukraine?
Poiint five: This attack is independent of the West bank. We can have that conversation later. This is about Hamas.But you are a self admitted Hamas sympathizer, and Hamas is no better than ISIS.
The men who have been taken hostage are likely being beaten while the women are being raped. There are multiple videos being circulated on telegram showing this. Thees terrorists are posting Facebook pictures of the different women and discussing which they'd like to rape first - and the press is celebrating the attack today.
Remeber this all happened on a holy day for the Jewish people.
Hamas and it's supporters are evil
Great Post. That A hole probably went to Harvard.

Wrong.
Pontius Pilate wrote a letter to Tiberius Caesar which included a description of Jesus. Copies of the letter are kept at the Congressional Library. An excerpt translated from the Greek:
...One day I observed in the midst of a group of people a young man who was leaning against a tree, calmly addressing the multitude. I was told it was Jesus. This I could easily have suspected so great was the difference between Him and those who were listening to Him. His golden colored hair and beard gave to his appearance a celestial aspect. He appeared to be about 30 years of age. Never have I seen a sweeter or more serene countenance. What a contrast between Him and His bearers with their black beards and tawny complexions!...
A fake Letter. "The Library of Congress has received a number of inquiries over the years about a purported letter from Pontius Pilate to Tiberius Caesar concerning Jesus Christ. The Library does not have such a letter in its collections".

Why does every celebrity feel the urge to comment on this? 99% of them couldn’t place a single middle eastern country on the map. Justin Bieber posted a message to support Israel and unknowingly used a Gaza background picture with it. LeBron James made a statement denouncing the violence by Hamas against innocent Israelis without acknowledging that the IDF has been murdering innocent Palestinians, too, and have been for far longer. These celebrities don’t give a f*ck and are all clout chasers trying to score PR points. Pathetic.

Did Hamas achieve its goals with this attack? What were their goals?
If Israel does go in with ground troops, what does Israel hope to achieve?

Hopefully Israel don’t bomb the US this time. They have a history of that.

Because the repubs support white supremacists. I guess you forgot what happened in Charlottesville. When they chanted Jews will not replace us and trump had their back.
As for Jews in America, it is a very very very very small number...only about 6.5 million, of which not all are of voting age.

This has ZERO to do with her party, if she was GOP and sided with Hamas- I still want her sorry azz out of office no matter what.
Can’t figure out how she reconciles having a pride flag next to the Palestinian flag. Doesn’t she know Hamas throws gays off of buildings. Maybe she can go over there and wave her pride flag in protest. She and Mia Khalifa can double fist the shaft of the flagpole just for giggles.

Wow I'm impressed at how much the critical thinking has progressed. But your attempt to justify mass murder of civilians falls quite short. Consider just a few of these points:
- Israel boasts a 95% success rate with it's Iron Dome system... very few rockets make it over and kill people
- You wanna talk about fundraising... they gets peanuts compared to what Israel gets from the US - almost $4B this year and it keeps going up
- This was a colossal security failure by an Israeli government whose leader has been claiming he's the only one who could keep Israel safe (remind of someone on our side?). Their beautiful wall didn't work. What is Israel doing with our money?
- Hamas is still made up of a bunch of low-IQ jihadist wannabes who were able to pull of this large scale attack because of poor security at the border. They literally cut through wire and made their way to a bunch of populated areas without any resistance. Even they issued a statement about how surprised they were to be able to pull it off.
So no, the mass killing of Palestinian civilians is not a requirement to keep Israel safer, as you are trying to argue. Israel has plenty of money and intel to keep their borders and people safe. The Mossad is supposed to be the best in the world. They have spies everywhere. If they really want to crush Hamas, they can get to the leadership and most Hamas low-lifes with little collateral damage. They have one of the best trained militaries in the world and can succeed in urban fighting for a while and secure some of Gaza if they want to show force. Bombing the heck out of Gaza and fully blocking the densely populated area to starve out the people and give them no refuge is definitely NOT going to damage Hamas as much as it will damage Israel in the long run as they are creating thousands of future terrorists with nothing to lose. Not to mention the disproportionate loss of life within Gaza... what Israel is telling the world is that they are more powerful terrorists than Hamas and that the lives of Palestinians is worth very little compared to the lives of Israelis.
This isn't effective and it isn't anywhere near just or ethical. They have plenty of other options.

The Western "liberal" Establishment's reaction to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is marked by a striking contrast. Despite decades of images depicting Palestinian suffering, the Establishment's response has been notably subdued. Additionally, there's been a lack of critical media examination when it comes to Israeli politicians and their usage of the word "condemn" in relation to Israeli actions.
In the recent surge of violence, a clear bias in both the media and the political class has emerged, with limited representation of Palestinian perspectives. It's worth noting that public opinion is more diverse than the Establishment's viewpoint. Furthermore asymmetric warfare often leads the oppressed to adopt tactics similar to their oppressors.
Several people are refraiing from condemning Hamas, focusing instead on criticising the political class for their unified support of "Israel's right to self-defence" while denying Palestinians the same right.00 -
