Hi AC

It's a shame you don't feel the same for the Ukrainian citizens murdered by Russia as you do for those used as human shields by a terrorist organisation hell bent on conducting a holocaust in Israel.

We are all human beings, even Jews, AC.

Hi Fester,

"It's a shame you don't feel the same for the Ukrainian citizens murdered by Russia as you do for those used as human shields by a terrorist organisation hell bent on conducting a holocaust in Israel."

First of all 'human shields' in Gaza...
How can anyone be used as a human shield if they're in their own home?

As for terrorist organisation...
Hamas is not just a militia, it's the entire government in Gaza, Al Qassam brigade is the military arm of Hamas.
And they have a legitimate right to fight occupation.
If you recognise Ukraines fight to defend it's borders why not Palestinians?

The majority of Israelis killed on Oct 7 (just over half) were active members of the IDF, (and many more were hostages caught in the crossfire, and you should look up Hannibal directive, an Israeli military policy aimed at preventing the capture of Israeli soldiers (or citizens) by enemy forces – at any cost.

http://www.aljazeera.com/features/2023/11/3/whats-the-hannibal-directive-a-former-israeli-soldier-tells-all

The reason why there was no significant IDF response for 6 to 7 hours was because Hamas successfully attacked IDF in their barracks.

You should also look up Dahiya Doctrine which is a military strategy that uses overwhelming force on civilian infrastructure.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahiya_doctrine#

Do you want to know how many kids in Ukraine die each day on average? Answer = 3
And while 3 kids is 3 too many in Gaza we have hundreds killed every day.

And as for Ukraine I was always pushing for a negotiated settlement, I was the one also saying negotiations were taking place in April 2022 and the west scuttled it. It was people like SM and yourself supporting the Ukrainian side who also refused negotiations, and now there's half a million dead Ukrainians.

You should all hear the other side of the story, even just for some balance:

Hamas published pre-recorded press conference in English about their side of story that never reached mainstream media.

These are the warmongers with the wrong attitude
http://twitter.com/SprinterX99880/status/1720495846998077447
“I say to the residents of the Gaza Strip! Those who can contribute to the release of the hostages will be protected, the rest deserve to die ,” former Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz said on Israeli television.

And this one right here is especially for mhaze
- Who supports / tried to defend the killing of / minimise or trivialise the suffering of - innocent kids.

DOES THIS LOOK STAGED TO YOU MHAZE?
http://twitter.com/Bernadotte22/status/1721983795501367618

This is what you're all defending and supporting?
Don't dare criticise, you might be an anti-semite.
- And the Lord may frown upon you if you criticise his chosen people.

Was she Hamas?
Was Hamas hiding inside her empty 7 year old skull cavity?

US military aid spent well?
More US jobs, good for the 'states' and the US economy?

Everything America touches turns to this.

Hannibal Directive’: Did Israel kill its own?
http://www.trtworld.com/middle-east/hannibal-directive-did-israel-kill-its-own-15574953
'The high civilian death toll during the recent Hamas attack has sparked a debate on whether Israel employed a notorious military doctrine.'

>>In the days that followed the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, Hamas was blamed for the killing of approximately 1400 Israelis. Many of these deaths apparently occurred at Kibbutz Beeri.

Israel has used this in part to “justify” its ongoing military attack of Gaza, which (time of writing) has claimed the lives of nearly 7000 Palestinians, 2665 of whom are children.

An eye-opening article, however, published by Mondoweiss has thrown into question how responsible Hamas is for the Israeli deaths. Authored by someone who decided to remain anonymous to avoid reprisal, the piece specifically points to how it was not Hamas necessarily behind them.

Instead, it was Israeli forces themselves.

This is consistent with the experience of Jerusalem-based journalist, Quique Kierszenbaum, who visited the area of Kibbutz Beeri on October 11.

“Building after building has been destroyed, whether in the Hamas assault or in the fighting that followed [between Hamas and Israeli forces], nearby trees splintered and walls reduced to concrete rubble from where Israeli tanks blasted the Hamas fighters where they were hiding,” wrote Kierszenbaum in his recent piece for The Guardian.

“Floors collapsed on floors. Roof beams were tangled and exposed like rib cages.”<<

Okay AC. So all those murdered Israelis, including many women and children, were off duty Israeli soldiers, and all those Gazan people killed just happened to be living atop terrorist tunnels and bunkers? Maybe the Gazans killed were off duty terrorists? The head of Hamas has stated that civilian deaths are part of the plan, so it makes sense that they use their own as human shields.
