To be sickened by Hamas

[MindfullyAmazedHorse]

AIBU to be sickened by what Hamas terrorists have done to innocent Israeli citizens?

I am not totally familiar with the whole Israeli - Palestinian situation. I don’t think anything political can explain what has happened over the last few days.

It is utterly horrendous what Hamas has done. I also think that Hamas are no friend to the Palestinians. They are bringing wrath on them.

I have read that this is the worst attack on innocent Jewish people since the holocaust, which is horrifying.

I am struggling to process these recent events.

Oh grow up. If you don't understand why the background to a war is relevant then I give up.

Sky News now showing evidence of horrific atrocities by Hamas. They are corroborated. Can the apologists now please stop pretending that "it didn't happen".

I haven't watched any video games so wouldn't know. I do know that the European Commission had “indications” that Twitter is “being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation”.

I wish people would stop just posting links to media content with no context.

Can you not be arsed to even write a couple of words @UhohFibonacci

FFS.

What an utterly ridiculous comment.

Good point.

Why not?

What the? Everyone is biased. I didn't use Amnesty International as as a primary source.
I do think think the UK is quelling opinions for a reason, most likely imo a good one.
We have to side with Israel for are own and our allies safety.

You're actually completely contradicting what several Jewish posters are saying. Presumably this is why you're trying to talk over them and get us to listen to what you claim they're saying rather than what they actually are saying.

Although well done on the spurious, made-up accusation that speaks even more than your attempt to dub over Jewish people to your wishes. You've shown your colours now. If you're not antisemitic, you'll shut up and let the Jewish posters speak for themselves.

You posted you were speaking on behalf of Jewish people earlier why are wouldn’t you read Jewish mners views?

@coffeeaddict77 there was footage of a young woman with dreads and distinctive leg tattoos dancing at the festival. The same woman is clearly seen dead and brutalised in footage that was subsequently filmed and uploaded to social media. Her name is confirmed. Her family have spoken. It really can't be any clearer.

You could find the uncensored footage of her too if you really want evidence.

I’m also sorry you don’t understand the difference between war and terrorism. Perhaps this confusion is the source of your stance? These attacks were not an act of war. There were illegal acts of terrorism under every act of international law.

These were not even war atrocities. These were terrorist atrocities against civilians.

I’m grown up enough to have understood that basic fact.

Yes, I do. That doesn't mean either is ok, both are awful. But there is something so horrific about mass murder, torture, terror. Swathes of young men with serious issues that cannot be fixed.

So Hamas are accountable for Israeli actions? Does this mean Israel is accountable for Hamas actions?

Just because some footage has been proven true it doesn't mean that there is no misinformation or doctored images and videos on social media.

@Margarethe Am I the only one who sees a difference between “collateral damage” from a bomb at distance, and going in hand-to-hand and slitting a baby’s throat?

No I don't think the method of killing a child or a baby is massively different. If you can bomb a hospital or school and disassociate yourself from the deaths caused you are no less of a sociopath than someone who can slit a throat.

Have you actually spoken to any Jewish people lately because most of them are saying…

There are posters here you can read to try and understand what Jewish people are saying

If you are interested as your post suggests why wouldn’t you read the posts?
