Netanyahu’s Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Givir, is the leader of the Jewish Power, has called mass murderer Baruch Goldstein, who killed 29 people and wounded 100 more in 1994, his “hero.” Just imagine if the US Secretary of Defense was the leader of the White Power Party, and went on TV to call Dylan Roof or Robert Gregory Bowers (perpetrator of the Pittsburgh Tree of Life synagogue massacre) his hero. Epithets like “extremist” get thrown around a lot these days, and it has made many people unable to recognize the real thing when they see it. We have no business even associating with a government that includes men like Ben-Gvir in such high positions, let alone giving them our unconditional backing.

The nuance of criticizing Netanyahu and at the same time condemning antisemitism is lost in most discussions. This phenomenon prevents any open and constructive debate.

Having been to Israel many times, it's hard for me to believe that Hamas gunmen waltzed into that fortified country like they did.
Netanyahu was on his way out because he is a criminal and needed the distraction from his crimes and power grab in the government.

Egypt warned Netanyahu about 3 days before the Oct 7 attack.
Netanyahu responded by either helping to orchestrate the Israeli music festival to a site closer to the Gaza border-or- chose to stay silent if he knew that the festival had, on its own, planned to move the venue closer to Gaza.

It's hard to watch, but this war has entered a phase essentially for an unconditional surrender of Hamas.
FDR, Churchill and Stalin continued to kill civilians and destroy German infrastructure long after a negotiated settlement could have been reached. The goal was unconditional surrender with the elimination of a threat down the road.
Until Hamas is utterly destroyed and Israel has full control of Gaza, unfortunately innocents will die.
It is absolutely awful what is happening in Gaza, but I understand Netanyahu's desire to eliminate or drastically curtail risks to Israel in the future.
Hezbollah and Iran got a taste of what could happen.
War is horrific and unfortunately innocents are often casualties.
Israel aims to finish what Hamas started on 10/7/23 and what was widely applauded in Gaza at the time.

They have full control now. There is not really a true Hamas anymore, just a few insurgents and people fighting for their lives and mainly a population getting starved and culled. I really hope all the continued killing isn’t solely for population control, but that what it looks like. You don’t kill that many children by accident.

Indeed, Hamas itself has, and still does, terrible things.
Don’t forget; Israel created Hamas as a ‘gang war’ opponent to the PLO (Ararat’s Palestine Liberation Organization). Reap what you sow.

If not complicit in allowing Hamas to plan, train and execute their terrorist attack. Qatar financially supported Gaza with Israeli knowledge for years. It’s likely these funds also supported Hamas. There’s ample evidence that Netanyahu’s motives have been and continue to be political.

It’s also possible to condemn Hamas and support humanitarian aid to innocents in Gaza.
It gets very complicated especially when Hamas is ingrained in every aspect of life in Gaza. It’s oversimplified to say Gazans should overthrow Hamas when Hamas are the bad guys with weapons. History is full of cases where tyrannical governments and armies subject their populations to unimaginable harm. This is also happening in Africa and elsewhere in the world.

The Likudniks have supported Hamas from the beginning as a way to divide the Palestinians and kill the two-state solution. Netanyahu pressured Qatar to keep funding them.
Israel has broken every single agreement since 1988 when Jordan agreed to give up their claim to the West Bank and revoke the Jordanian passports from the native population in exchange for Israel promising to allow a Palestinian state. And then the f*cking Oslo accords that eventually led to a Likudnik assassinating Rabin.
They are killing, maiming, and destroying with the intent that some good people will say enough and offer refuge to the Gazans. Then, of course, Israel will never allow them back into Gaza. Ethnic Cleansing 201.

You need to study a little history. The Geneva Convention that established these actions as war crimes was held in 1949. WWII ended a year or two before that (I'll make you look it up to find out when it actually ended).

Not for things going on in Gaza - collective punishment, forced starvation, and intentionally targeting civilians. That's we needed the 1949 Geneva convention. I'm still stuck on the 20,000 children killed in Gaza - no way that's not intentional. It really, really looks like Likudnik population control.

I see it as not intentional as in directly trying to kill the children. At the most it reckless and without regard in order to achieve a different goal. If someone wanted to argue that, I couldn't argue against it, because it's an issue that can be brought up. Some would argue why it is necessary and others would say it's a crime.

There's plenty to defend Israel on. This blockade is not one of them, and it's pretty weak to claim it isn't intentional. If it's NOT intentional and the results are so obvious, they would stop. Nobody who is unintentionally starving children keeps doing it once it's been brought to their attention.

Plenty of wars have been fought with one side placing high regard on civilian casualties. That side almost always lost. Have you studied England's incendiary campaign of WW2? Little boy and Fat man kill many civilians? We won that war. Last one we ever won, but we won it.

Evidence of this claim?
Using the A bombs wound up saving more civilian lives than killing them. It was a matter of what could end the war the quickest with the fewest deaths. That is not comparable to this situation in Gaza.

Each book in the trilogy is a long read, but IMO one of the most comprehensuve accounts of the entirety of America’s conduct during WW II.
The good, bad, smart, and stupid parts of America’s activities fighting the Italians and Germans are covered in (sometimes excruciating) detail.

He has been, along with Gallant. If he does get voted out, not only does his Israeli trial start up again, but Israel has to turn him over to the ICC (they are signatories, the US isn’t).
This is why he can’t travel many places, mainly Hungary after a lot of guarantees and the US.

There is a 0% chance they would ever turn him over. You have a better chance at winning Lotto . The only consequences in life he might possibly pay is for his corruption issues in Israel. Israel would never hand him over abroad though for this war.

Yeah, they actually did win wars and we aren't anymore civilized today. We would do it again if we felt it was needed as we did then.

Why don't they give that a shot and call Israel's bluff? What do they have to gain by keeping the hostages?

When you use innocents as cover and all the other crap they do...I think it might just be as simple as eff them until they return the hostages and disband.

Do you honestly believe this?

I know it's like a cliche and for people who have never been to war it's easy to believe the terrorists are just holed up in a building with a bunch of hostages to protect themselves. But that's not how it works. The majority of people in a war zone are just trying to live their lives and the bad guys just happen to live near them.
Gaza is one of the most populated areas in the world. The mass destruction you're seeing isn't necessary to fight Hamas. No more than the US needing to bomb entire neighborhoods because gang members happen to live in the neighborhood. No one would advocate dropping bombs from airplanes in the US onto residential buildings. It's nonsensical to think it works in other countries.

The Hamas fighters are using the civilians as cover. The mass destruction is necessary to fight Hamas, to limit Hamas, to delegitimize Hamas. Anyway, Hamas is hiding among civilians for protection. If they separated themselves from civilians they would be defeated within a couple of weeks and of course they don't want that.

The problem is you don't really understand that fact
May 27, 2025, 10:58 PM

but that's the hallmark of a low information voter.
It's a fact that operating near civilian populations and infrastructure can be considered using "human shields." It's also a fact that Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas in the entire world, so it's impossible to operate without being near civilian populations or infrastructure.
It's the nuance that matters between two 'facts'
Israel ambushing and massacring 15 ambulance workers isn't because of definition of human shields.

They are are purposely hiding among civilians and could easily separate themselves from the civilians. That said, if they did that it would mean certain defeat and death. Therefore, they hide a mind civilians. It's pretty straightforward.

I can assure that you are describing how terrorists operate and not how a functional Army/Government works.
You're literally saying it's alright to massacre civilians to deter the enemy. That's the definition of terrorism and not war.

Neat, but you're wrong. I don't believe you actually fought in the war. You might have been in the military, but that doesn't mean you were in combat, because most are not.. Either way, if you did you would know that there were 200k Iraqi civilians killed in that war. There are estimates that 50k might have died in Afghanistan which isn't even as dense. If you follow history you would know that up to as much as 3 million civilians died in Germany in WWII. The density of population and where the fighting it taking place and the tactics of Hamas fighters, lead to more civilians deaths. Then you add that Israel is killing them wherever they are even when they are hiding among civilians and it's particularly bloody. It can be called reckless or even criminal, but it's the reality of this war and nobody will ever be prosecuted for war crimes on either side.

When a former prime minister says Israel's actions are "very close to war crimes," you know he means that the actions are literally war crimes. He'll never actually say Israel is committing war crimes, but everyone knows what he meant.

Nah. He should be allowed to apply Sherman’s Doctrine of total warfare. We did it in American Civil War, WWI, and WWII. We actually won those wars. Have not won a war since we started following “rules”.

IDF is doing the same thing in Gaza. Forcing civilians to go into tunnels and buildings in front of them as human shields. Sourced from both Palestinian civilians and IDF soldiers.

It is well documented that he made Confederate POW fund and clear mines during his march to the Sea. Google it and choose which one of the numerous sources you trust. I actually learned about it in college.

That's a good story I never knew about. But it doesn't sound the same. Using POWs to dig up land mines that they or their units buries isn't the same thing as forcing noncombatants to do the same thing. Israel is using noncombatants.

POW are noncombatants. The people Israel was supposedly using could not have been civilians with no ties to Hamas. If they had no ties to Hamas, they would have had no value as shields. Hamas kills non Hamas indiscriminately, with no value placed in their life.

We paid people in Afghanistan and Iraq for this. If they are compelled like Israel does, it’s a war crime. We committed plenty of war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the military tried to hold a number of the criminals like Gallagher accountable. Shitzenpants pardoned them.

Yep it happens with nuts in war. Some people are psychopaths and are soldiers. As far as the people being forced in front of soldiers as shields. The goal is that they live though as far as best case scenario. Gallagher just wanted them dead and was picking them off.
