I like how we've gone from "false flag" and "misinformation" to "it was justified". Fuck the Israeli government, but I can't get on board with deliberately pixelating bystanders, no matter what side is doing it. There was no message here, no tactical goal was achieved, it's just misery for misery's sake.
I'm sorry if the desperate, terrified inhabitants of a open air prison don't have a coordinated enough strategy for you. I'm sorry that in their misery they only have revenge in mind.
The terrified inhabitants are still in the Gaza Strip, and I fear for their lives in the face of an impending land invasion of the strip. Hamas fighters are an organized militia and I will judge them and their actions differently than I will unarmed civilians. Stop equating all Palestinians with Hamas - that is exactly what Israel wants.
most of Palestine supports the Hamas
I only did a quick google, but apparently support is at 58%. Thats technically "most", but not enough of a majority to write off the people who don't really.
And one thing that GEAS is definitly correct about, for all their inappropriate handwringing that they've done, is that Israel wants Hamas conflated with Palestine and doing so serves their cause. (Much like conflating Jews with Israel serves the antisemitic cause, and I'm pretty sure polling for support for Israel among the Jewish diapsora is higher than 58%)
Yeah, sorry. I get kneejerk about this sometimes
I never could have expressed it better than this.
