In reply to the discussion: It's genocide. I don't give a F**k who is offended! [View all]Sundance1220
(285 posts)37. It is absolutely NOT Israel's fault
that hamas hides behind their people. You're asking Israel to fight with one hand behind their back and they are not going to do that to satisfy the far left's idea of self defense. They hide in schools, in hospitals, WITH THE FREAKING UN (UNRWA SHOULD BE DISBANDED IMMEDIATELY). How freaking kind of you to think they have a right to fight back but only under rules YOU approve of which would put more Israeli's at risk. This is WAR and in war civilians die. Next time they shouldn't take on a military that is so much bigger than they are. And their people didn't help by cheering and parading around the hostages while blood covered their underwear. They hardly look like the innocent bystanders you want to pretend they are.

Our country is going to be a shit show. Gaza isn't near a top priority right now for us. I don't care who is offended.

Sorry, just because Hamas are terrorist bastards doesn't give the ultra RW Israel religio-fash loons a free hand to do

None of that refutes a single thing I posted, it just typical doubling-down and re-shooting the same failed angles.

No. My 'topics' and stances throughout this thread are consistent, are very relevant, factually correct, and were made

Charging Israeli government with genocide and favoring the government being tried are mutually exclusive sentiments.

Sure, but there are plenty of us who were NOT part of any "abandon Harris" group . . .

The difference is you voted for VP Harris, not some third party candidate or not voting.

The IDF was holding Palestinian prisoners without trial or hearing and could have released them for the hostages.

I agree. I don't have any issue with Jews in general, the same for Muslims.
