1984Echoes Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 The flipside is, if Hamas decided to attack again, Israel could formally declare War on Palestine as an enemy nation bent on Israel's destruction and therefore take even stronger measures then they've taken in this war on Hamas. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 Somehow I still think the international community will blame the Jews like they are now. Quote

1984Echoes Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 War is hell. Mistakes are made. Mistakes are ALWAYS made in war. Not a genocide. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 So if a couple dozen out of 2.5 million equals a genocide, didn't Hamas commit a genocide on October 7th? Everything is a genocide now. You break a ceasefire, kill a thousand or so innocent civilians, take a couple hundred hostage, refuse a ceasefire, continue to fire rockets, claim you will do it again, and the people who respond are the genociders now. On a side note, why are there no bomb shelter in Gaza? All those tunnels and only militants are using them. Quote

This seems somewhat similar to the Al-Shifa Hospital bombing with an estimated 300 or so Palestinian casualties... That ended up being errant Hamas missiles instead of an Israeli bombing. At least it seems that way. I wonder how many of the 36K Gazan dead are actually at the hands of Hamas crossfire/ errors/ errant missiles/ secondary weapons explosions or on purpose killings by Hamas? 1,000? 2,000? We know it was Hamas missiles at Al-Shifa Hospital and we know they were shooting and killing Gazans that were directed to safe corridors. The true numbers will never be known. Quote

When considering the number of militant deaths to civilian deaths in an urban war, this has been one of the lowest casualty rate wars. Truly amazing how terrorists have convinced so many people this is a genocide. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 Meanwhile, Russia continues to attack Ukraine dropping a bomb on a hardware store and no one running around yelling genocide or setting up encampments on colleges. Quote
Tigeraholic1 Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 It still amazes me how the elite, highly educated among us see an article and say "see genocide!" and run with it. Yet someone mentions Benjamin Crump you get "Who da F dat guy and why should I care?" Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 A major part of the problem is the media just immediately runs with whatever Hamas puts out there like them overinflating the deaths of women and children by 50%. With the baked in antisemitism, this is what you get. Telling the Jews of all people they are committing a genocide by killing terrorists who started a war with them. Quote
oblong Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 This situation has made the word genocide meaningless. If Israel wanted that they would have done it many times over the decades let alone months. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 Gaza has doubled in population since 2000. By Hamas own numbers, the deaths have been around 30-35k for months now. This is the worst attempt at a genocide I have ever seen. I'm not aware of any genocide where the people genocided started the war and refuse to accept a ceasefire. Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 Is it common when a group is being genocided to reject every offer to end the genocide? Quote
Motown Bombers Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 Reminder, Hamas continues to fire rockets at Israel. If Israel defends itself, it’s a genocide. Quote
