If this isn’t a turning point in international support for this war, nothing will be.

Goblinmodeactivated · 10/02/2024 22:26

There aren’t the words to express how horrifying this continues to be.

Eyesopenwideawake · 10/02/2024 22:27

It won't be. She's just a poster girl for man's inhumanity to man.

Don't forget what started it. It would end m right now if Hamms released the hostages.

Israel left Gaza to their own devices and look what Hamas did

Hamas lied to their people in the elections about a peaceful solution

Why is Hamas not releasing the hostages?

Why is next door, Egypt not letting people into Egypt?

What is going on is wrong, but we must never forget what started it and Isareli hostages till held

They'll still be saying that as they kill the last Palestinian. Inhuman.

It’s pretty naive at this point to think releasing hostages would end the war.

““There is no other solution but a complete and final victory," Mr Netanyahu told a news conference on Wednesday.”

PutMyFootIn · 10/02/2024 22:37

Hammas are to blame for this. If they hadn't have done what they did in October, none of this would be happening now.

WindsChange · 10/02/2024 22:38

It didn’t start in October 2023 though, did it. It’s not been about the hostages for months now, either although of course I do not disagree they should be released.

Posters saying this, over and over again to justify a genocide, war crimes and tens of thousands of dead innocents are being deliberately obtuse at this point.

May Hind’s memory be a blessing and may her sweet and innocent face haunt the conscious of the Israeli government and forces.

WatTyler · 10/02/2024 22:39

Very sad, though also possibly fabricated Hamas propaganda.
If only Hamas would return the hostages, dead and alive, and lay down their arms this awful business could stop forthwith.
As it is, Israel's campaign to exterminate Hamas will continue, regardless of what the 'international community' says.

Agree. I said back in October that this war will only end when Hamas are defeated.

The best we can hope for is a swift victory for Israel. I predicted it would all be over by spring but looks like I was wrong 🙁

His choice of words is pretty chilling.

I choose to believe that the best we can hope for is better than the destruction of a people, a future of oppression and the killers of my friends and colleagues facing no justice for their actions in this life.

I have avoided many threads like this but there comes a point where someone like me has to state the whats what.

Hamas started it and that a fact

Another fact is even I would support the people of Gaza but not Hamas if they realsed all the hostages right now.

Don't forget what Hamas did to women, and children on Oct 7th

As in every war, the innocent pay a hefty price

and the disliked PM of Israel would have been out of office had it not been for the murderous lot/Hamass doing what they did in Oct

BS. If they wanted to do that they could have done it overnight, so stop the nonsense.

Someone like you? What does that mean?

You clearly have a very poor understanding of Middle Eastern history if you think it’s a fact that this started in October 7th.

Maybe you should learn about 1947, the creation of Israel, Al Nakba, 1948 war, 1967 war, the continuing occupation of Gaza and the severe restrictions on rights on Palestinian people, the continuous attacks on Palestinians, the illegal settlements. So much you don’t understand when you loudly tell us this started in October 7th 2923.

ThatUsernameIsTaken · 10/02/2024 22:56

Just like the Israelis throw around anti-semite, it is fair to call anyone who says that this started on October 10th, a genocide supporter. Netanyahu has made his intentions clear. The west has made its in intentions clear. Whilst babies, children, women, men, the elderly and the disabled are murdered, the west keeps talking about October 10th, as if the Palestinians have been left to be in their land; flourishing and happy? I won't answer that question. The Israelis block aid trucks because they say ''since when has history fed the enemy."
If this was a 6 YEAR OLD GIRL in Ukraine, surrounded by dead bodies in a car, calling for help (listen to the audio from the Red Crescent), the help that went got murdered too, would the west be silent? Or would be out to nuke? The dehumanisation of anyone outside of the west, benefits all of us who live in the west. We will always have a scapegoat in Africans, Asians, Arabs and so on, yet the west has caused the majority of this. I hear time and time again that 'America has a plan for the conflict.' Why does America have a plan? Why is America involved in any of this, never-mind the billions they give to the Israelis? Why is Sunak involved in this? Why does he need to be prime minister when he has millions?
I am struggling tonight as I put my 6 year old to bed. She has baby like features and a missing milk tooth. The thought of her being injured and surrounded by her family all dead and calling for someone to come get her is incomprehensible.
May her mothers hurt heal and may Netanyahu never sleep peacefully again.

someone like me who keeps quiet as the truth gets shouted down!!!
Forget what went on many years ago if everyone worked on that we'd all be at war

You know who started it and how it can be stopped at once so stop being deliberately obtuse.

Humdingerydoo · 10/02/2024 23:12

Rest in peace little Hind. Such a pointless death, to add to the tens of thousands of other utterly pointless deaths in this most recent war.

OP is making it sound as though you have proof Israel killed her though, and did so with intent. Where did you get that proof from? No one else seems to have access to it.

The problem is - nobody cares about that. It's just history. Many of the people who lived through that aren't even with us any more. It may sound brutal but people really just don't care.
