'There are no red lines anymore' says UN Palestinian rights expert on US sanctions

This the kind of disingenuous crap from pro-Palestinians that completely shows them up for what they are IMO.

They try to argue that the Palestinians knowingly electing a terrorist organisation with a charter to wipe out Israel and kill Jews (with most of the other votes going to another terrorist organisation), who had a history carrying out terrorist attacks including suicide bombings, mass shootings stabbings and using women and children for their activities, openly training and indoctrinating generations of kids to hate and kill Jews and blame Jews for all their problems right under the nose of the UN, WAS NOT A SECURITY RISK for Israel and they had no need to implement measures to protect their citizens.

Oct 7th would have been a regular occurrence if they hadn’t as the Palestinians have now proved.

Lest we forget the type of people Israel is defending itself against.

And yet they ignored warnings from their own border troops and Egypt.

People make mistakes - what do you want? . If they came down heavy on every warning or bit of intelligence we know exactly what you would say.

And yet Hamas are so dangerous that Israel employ dozens of border guards and masses of surveillance technology in order to monitor activities. The warnings went on for months.

Yes, October 7th proved they were very dangerous. You think Israel should have been more heavy handed?

This is blaming the wrong people. Hamas committed the atrocities on October 7th

Can you imagine the outrage and condemnation if Israel had carried out preemptive operations to disable Hamas from carrying out an act of war like Oct 7th?

Of course the intelligence that an attack was being planned would have been dismissed as lies and an excuse to genocide Palestinians and ethnically cleanse Gaza, war crimes, crimes against humanity, dehumanisation of Hamas, etc, etc.

Oh look what happened when Israel acted AFTER Oct 7th.

I know. It is spectacularly disingenuous.

Just another way to blame Israel.

Not just for what they have done but also for what they didn't do.

And to blame them for their own suffering. It’s awful to see.

Merely an observation.

Well it was also your "observation" that 7/10 created an "opportunity" for Israel so I think we can safely say that you see Israel through a lens where they will never get your sympathy for anything.

Sympathy for killing tens of thousands of Palestinians, including women and children, reducing most of Gaza to rubble, plans to place Gazans in 'camps' (not holiday camps presumably), shooting people lining up for water and food, shooting people in the water, bombing churches, bombing hospitals etc. Being condemned by the UN and countless aid agencies.

All this could have been avoided.

What happens to Gaza in the future will demonstrate whether or not my observations are correct. We shall see.

If Hamas hadn’t committed October 7th atrocities it would have been.

Sympathy for 7/10.

Netanyahu's actions will not result in peace or security for Israel.

His current actions cause death and destruction. He's nurturing and arming tomorrow's threat to Israel. 7th October happened on his watch.

He doesn't give a shit about Israelis and he certainly doesn't give a shit about anyone else. Some men just want to see the world burn. Netenyahu is one of them.

I think that is untrue, Palestine has been bombed before October 7th and would have been again, Israel has systematically been breaching the human rights of Palestinians for decades
Even when Gazans peacefully protested they were shot
IN 2018 Palestinians trapped in Gaza began a protest movement at the frontier with Israel that was intended to last six weeks.

Men, women and children demanded recognition of the right of Palestinian refugees in Gaza and elsewhere to return to their ancestral homes in Israel and for an end to a punishing blockade that has made life unliveable.
Israeli snipers fired live ammunition, killing and maiming dozens. This lethal response on 30 March 2018 triggered anger and disbelief across the world but has not stopped.

A year later, the rallies continue. Thousands have bullet wounds through their legs. The streets of Gaza are filled with people limping or in wheelchairs. Children, journalists and medics have been killed, even when they were standing far back from the fence. The UN has said Israel’s military may have committed war crimes, deliberately targeting civilians.
