IDF shot a 9 year old boy

Why is this not in the mainstream news? I thought there was a ceasefire!

How would that assure Hamas would surrender and release hostages?

But on the hostages, Israeli is bombing the tunnels Hamas use, they want them destroyed but the hostages are also in them, how many do you think are still alive? especially as there are also huge shortages of food.

The 2 main aims of Israel are at odds with each other but as we can see, the destruction of Hamas is more important.

Palestinians protesting against Hamas? well, when this is over, the protestors would not be safe from reprisals, possibly during the bombings.

You are being rather unrealistic.

It is very difficult for sure. I am devastated about all the loss of life but don't see that Israel has any other choice as Hamas is committed to its destruction?

No, as I've said before, health reasons prevent me attending protests these days. I haven't been to any, against anything at all, in many years.
Which ones have you attended?

@ohforheavenssakedearcomeonnow do you condemn Israel's behaviour towards Palestine prior to October 7th? Do you condemn the racism, land stealing, torture, rape, unlawful imprisonment, oppression of human rights, and killing of so many innocent Palestinians by IDF in the preceding decades? Or are you only prepared to recognise the actions of one side.

Hope you feel better soon!

There is SO MUCH documented terror by Israel just in 2022 and 2023 alone.

Sorry to hear. No I haven't attended any Hamas protests but would if there were any

@Chaitales and @ohforheavenssakedearcomeonnow Thank you, standing for long periods of time wouldn't be doable, especially now winter and this bitter cold has suddenly appeared! An actual march without standing around, maybe, but due to work I'd have my children and would have to be stopping constant scape attempts (all under school age)!

@ohforheavenssakedearcomeonnow It may not be near you, and it's short notice, but there is this: https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/conflict-in-the-middle-east/4953492-together-for-humanity
It's a good idea, I hope it is very well attended.

No, they want peace on their land eh? 🙄

.

@miniegg3 even if these screenshots represent the truth (hard to say from a screenshot) Israel are no better. They repeatedly call for end of Palestine via genocidal tweets, maps showing no Palestine, one minister even suggesting it could be nuked the other week. Do you think this is acceptable?

It's no big surprise that Hamas are not seeking peace.

So obviously it's a fake screenshot then 🙈 I can't upload videos on here..
So are you saying its acceptable that hamas intend to kill all Jews?
And you're saying that the IDF should do nothing in return?
There will never be peace under hamas rule because they don't want a ceasefire and the don't want a 2 state solution!

What do people actually suggest could work?

@miniegg3 if you answer my question, I will answer yours.

Oh for gods sake..

Do I think they should nuke gaza? No obviously not!

Do I think there's a solution other than what they're doing now, no.

Do I think there's a solution other than what they're doing now, no.

🤦🏽‍♀️ Still derailing a thread about a child who was shot in cold blood by supporting further deaths. Despicable.

The question was, do you think israel’s genocidal rhetoric, i.e. stating they want to wipe out all palestinians and take all their land (not just nuke them) is ok?

how is their expression of genocidal intent ok yet Hamas saying the same thing not ok?

i’m not saying either is ok but you ignore Israeli govt wants to wipe out all of Palestine. It changes how we see the situation.

Not many people are that open about supporting the mass killing of civilians, the killing of 1 in every 200 children in Gaza, the killing of aid workers and medics on duty, the statvation of millions. Most talk in circles around it and pretend that they care that children are being hurt. I admire your honesty if nothing else.

Well, Hamas is a terrorist organisation

Israel is a state that should have higher standard of behaviour

Just as the UK government had no excuse for using the tactics of the IRA

Well I haven't seen those tweets so I can't comment on them. If it's exactly as you say, then no of course not. Getting rid of hamas and gaza being able to rebuild, with hopefully a rational government, using funds to build a nice place for them to live rather than spending money on weapons and war, would be what I want.
Unfortunately hamas started all this destruction in october

The reality is that the IDF have been killing children for years. Which is disgusting.

On October 2023 Hamas did the same. Which is equally disgusting.

That doesn't make it OK for what the IDF have been doing, and are now doing to a greater extent.

What do you suggest?

It's was against terrorists, war in never pleasant. I think people forget its happening all over, not just in gaza.

Or that the IDF have been doing it for years without condemnation?

Israel has broken international law for years.

Hamas has no right to break international law.

Neither does Israel
