The White House said Sunday that “it’s the right time” for Israel to scale back its military offensive in the Gaza Strip, as Israeli leaders again vowed to press ahead with their operation against the territory’s ruling Hamas militant group.
The comments exposed the growing differences between the close allies on the 100th day of the war.
Israel has chosen to attack mostly the population instead of precisely hostile forces
then why did they allow them to move south and not just finish them there?
Bombing the escapees seems to be an attempt at that
Gaza has chosen to completely blur the boundaries between combatants, locations used for terrorist attacks and the civilian population. They expected to Israel to just sit on their hands and go “duh, guess we’ll have to accept them kidnapping people and wildly shooting missiles at us.”
That was a fucking dumb expectation and now everyone there has to pay for it.
You might say they are being punished collectively. Like collective punishment. Aka a war crime
Maybe Israel could… Not starve them. Maybe let them actually have an economy. These things would really help.
Ungodly amounts of money were pumped into Gaza and all they have to show for it is tunnels for terrorists to hide in, weapons caches in every house and thousands of rockets. Is that supposed to be the “economy” of Gaza?
Also there is no need for you to respond, this outs you as a disgusting creature completely lost to any form of reason.
Which doesn’t help when you can’t actually use it to buy things. Israel’s blockade is calculated so it keeps Gaza on the brink of collapse after aid.
Where do you expect Palestine to field its conventional army and will Israel allow them to get tanks planes etc shipped in?
Its a war zone the size of a city, how else are they going to fight here in your mind?
Who said anything about tanks and planes? Stop that nonsense. How about wearing some sort of uniform to make them distinguishable from civilians instead of running around in tracksuits hiding weapons? They love to dress up like soldiers for photo ops and parades but when push comes to shove they wear adidas and sneakers.
They decided to play war dressed as civilians and hide among them - a war crime that expectedly makes civilians into potential targets.
Oh so that’s why Israel has leveled city blocks? That’s why they have killed 1 out of 100 of every Palestinian? That’s why the starve them, take away their electricity, aid, and water? The “was crimes” that is just guerilla warfare is puny in comparison to the atrocities that Israel commits on the daily, for the last 70 years.
That’s on Hamas. They steal all the aid and murder the people living there. They misfire their rockets on their “own” people trying to harm Israel. Go direct your complaints at them - they can stop the war.
And I see how you just completely ignore the fact that Hamas war crimes directly lead to the civilian populace becoming a target. Engaging in combat dressed as a civilian is not “guerilla” warfare - even those wear their uniforms to act within the Geneva Conventions. What Hamas does is just plain old terrorism.
why would the Israelis fund Hamas then?
Hamas does not “steal all the aid.” The Israeli government under Benjamin Netanyahu has funded Hamas for years, in a truly chef’s kiss strategy to keep the population of Gaza under their thumb.
lol another one who completely disregards everything that was said before to throw in some completely unrelated bullshit. Talking to you people is like talking to pidgeons
