In case you missed it about that particular story
"The IDF did not comment on Moskowitz's claim about the baby, however, and the JC was not able to independently verify it."

And if the IDF do comment on it in the future and say it's true, will you believe them?

Egypt doesn't want to take Palestinians. Why would that be?

Egypt has plenty of it's own problems. It's not difficult to imagine why they don't want millions of refugees, and 25000 terrorists dumped on them.

Reallifelurker · 02/11/2023 15:49

I confess to being shocked to my core at the ignorance and stupidity of those blindly supporting "Palestine" HAMAS and the ease with which they have dismissed the 7/10 attacks. I'm not given to hyperbole but have at times felt physically nauseous reading some posts here on MN, let alone other SM platforms. I feel like we are on the edge of some dreadful precipice. Can't even face trying to debate on here anymore.

FFS another one - do you really think think anyone who doesn’t shrug the horrors the Palestinians off is supporting Hamas?

Reallifelurker · 02/11/2023 15:46

Hamas

Reallifelurker · 02/11/2023 15:46

More and more Israel politicians from the government are talking about clearing the area and moving them to Egypt (there are some documents)
also , there has been some attacks in West Bank in last few weeks

Thats ethnic cleansing though not genocide.

Yep. Western supporters love to talk about Israel’s (non-existent) ‘genocide’ of Palestinians but are, at best, completely silent about Hamas’s overtly stated intent to commit racist genocide against Israeli’s, or actively applaud Hamas as ‘exhilarating’ ‘freedom fighters’ . The antisemitism in this bias could not be more plain.

Genocide is debatable. I don’t see any evidence killing all Palestinians is Israel’s aim (and they also have to attack the West Bank) but as for the rest of it..applauding Hamas? Exhilarating freedom fighters? Really?

@Parkingt111 exactly. I think then, if we are going to condemn one then we would then have to condemn the other too. As we have now got to the point where people are dieing all over and no one will ever agree either as this is happening in real time. Someone might do something tomorrow that might then change one our opinions.

This is happening in real time.

Parkingt111 · 02/11/2023 13:19

I see the absolute hypocrisy on these threads
The same people who will (rightly so) condemn Hamas on their genocidal views will casually dismiss the genocidal rhetoric that has openly been said by the Israeli government
Where is the condemnation for this?

Fairtobefairohhhhhc · 02/11/2023 13:00

@Poudretteite actually you said hamas said they did it. This is israel saying they did it...

Hamas official declares "we will repeat Oct. 7 attacks until Israel is 'finished'"

Fairtobefairohhhhhc · 02/11/2023 12:03

@OhHelloTheres to be fair though. They have never been able to have a re election. The last one was supposed to be 2021 but was postponed because Israel had not allowed those in Jerusalem to vote

https://www.npr.org/2021/04/29/992065009/palestinian-authority-postpones-parliamentary-elections

No, that's what Palestinian Authority's Fatah claimed.

But the reality is that polls in West Bank in 2021 indicated Fatah would suffer another humiliating defeat to Hamas in the upcoming election.

Two-thirds of Palestinians completely opposed Abbas' cancellation of that election.

President Abbas has lost control over a northern swath of the West Bank, especially after he called off an election.

Oh there's many more but I'm sure these will suffice to understand the total disdain and contempt many people in power in Israel hold of the Palestinians

backtowinter · 02/11/2023 12:09

And what are your views on the OP? You know, the topic of the thread

Good question
I strongly disagree with the actions of Hamas
I mean nobody in their right mind can condone the murder of innocent civilians

backtowinter · 02/11/2023 12:30

Parkingt111 · 02/11/2023 12:12

Biden said the attacks by "extremist settlers" amounted to "pouring gasoline" on the already burning fires in the Middle East since the Hamas attack.
"It has to stop. They have to be held accountable. It has to stop now,"

Any more, or have you finished?

SomeCatFromJapan · 02/11/2023 12:02

Unbelievable. A thread quite literally about Hamas announcing to the world in the clearest and most unequivocal terms exactly who they are, what their goal is and how much of a shit they give about Palestinian civilians, and you still get a bunch of useful idiots frantically attempting to do their PR for them.

👏🏻

Fairtobefairohhhhhc · 02/11/2023 12:13

@OhHelloTheres I will hold my hands up. I was unaware they where in the west bank. Its still not an excuse to shoot children there though.

Parkingt111 · 02/11/2023 12:12

Let's not forget how the Palestinians in the west bank are treated
Absolutely awfully
So much so that Israels closest ally Biden finally had to say something in a rare occurrence

Hamas official declares "we will repeat Oct. 7 attacks until Israel is 'finished'"
