Israel / Gaza / Hamas Mega-Thread

[Uxupox]

Maybe not them. But Hamas probably is and if the Israeli neighbors won the war in 1948 well... There would be a lot less Arab Jews today.

Attempting Genocide with rockets that have to have most of its explosive warhead removed to be even able to reach Israeli territory and might kill a handful of people on a really, really lucky day. Good one.

When Israeli casualties even begin to reach half the amount of Palestinian casualties, then using the term "genocide" won't come off as pure bullshit.

So what exactly do you propose then? When the rockets drop just "take" it and act like nothing happens?

"Oh it's a rocket attack go ahead on your business folks nothing to see here."

Doesn't change the fact that Hamas is dedicated to the destruction of Israel.

And I can be dedicated to total world domination but if I'm nowhere near achieving even a bit of it I'm only going to be laughed at.

Crack down on the settlements. That would take a lot of wind out of Hamas's justifications for sending bottle rockets over. Then again without Hamas, Israel wouldn't have a justification to bomb the shit out of Palestinians and grab their lands either.

Yea I'd support that.

No.

actually, yeah. they might even plausibly get away with 0 deaths on a good year.

Let's say that Hamas get's "lucky" and kill 1 or a few? What do you suggest then? Ignore it as well? A few lives don't matter right?

It's quite unreasonable to expect any country to tolerate rocket attacks against their people regardless if said rocket attacks result in small amounts of physical casualties.

[Alyakia]

well in that case the obvious answer is to ban chocolate, invade, kill thousands and displace hundreds of thousands of peole

And Expand Settlements as always.

Violence will only beget violence.

Because the Palestinians bending over with their pants down while Israeli settlers sodomize them out of land will result in peace. For the Israeli settlers.

i agree. so israel should stop being so agg- wait a minute

Have you seen me supporting expanding the settlements? No. In fact I agree with you that's wrong and disgusting. But Hamas using continued rocket attacks and expect the Israelis to just wither it is insane and unreasonable.

even when hamas stops rocket attacks for months and years on end shit still happens. hmm.

[DBJ]

So answer violence with violence? Yea that's gonna work out great.

there is a reason that "peaceful resistance? more settlements. violent resistance? more settlements. go to UN? more settlements. don't go to UN? more settlements." became a meme

stupid people?

[Prussia-Steinbach]

>hamas is to blame because they respond to israeli violence with anything but absolute submission

Hamas is to blame because they constantly commit to violence instead of peace.

Maybe because peace and diplomacy not only got them nowhere, but earned them further Israeli settlements in their territory.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

Exactly. Israel needs to lay down arms.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

For refusing to be slaughtered and responding to violence with violence? Excuse me but their behavior is quite excusable.

The Palestinians' behavior? Yes.

People that can actually follow current events.

[Geilinor]

It didn't. Israel pulled settlements out of Gaza in 2006 and Hamas doesn't rule the West Bank.

[Eroda Saaniah]

Hamas gaining rule is one of the reasons why peace is unlikely. The other is the sheer jingoism of Netanyahu.

[Tmutarakhan]

Now, the wronger are the Palestinians. If they used diplomacy rather than strait-up tried to genocide the Israeli, nor tried to do it again repetitively during the course of the year, they wouldn't be in such deep shit nowadays.

The Palestinians have never attempted genocide. Stop lying.

Their aim has ALWAYS been genocide. It was adopted as their leadership's policy in 1920, and while some major factions have said they were no longer pursuing genocide as an aim, at every time there have been major factions, such as Hamas at present, who continue to hold genocide as their official aim.

Since the Israeli evacuation of Gaza there has never been a year without rocket attacks from there; there has seldom even been a month without attacks.

there is a difference between rocket attacks and hamas rocket attacks.

i would consider a month with literally 1 rocket to be splitting hairs. and when the number of rockets fired a month goes from 4 to 2,874 you know that something has gone pretty badly.
