      OP refuses to admit that. In fact, they heavily implied to me (before blocking me) that Israel bombing refugee camps is justifiable.

        Both the IDF (Israeli government) and Hamas are committing atrocities. No amount of tears on camera are going to bring back those dead civilians.

        You don’t bomb refugee camps and you don’t have fire fights in hospitals.

          Hamas committed atrocities to provoke an Israeli response, and Israel has done exactly what Hamas wanted.

          Neither is blameless. But they are also not the same.

          Israel is murdering indiscriminately, and is a state run by bigots who do not care about Palestinian lives. In the guise of national defense, the state is committing genocide.

          Hamas is a terrorist organization who targeted, raped, and murdered Israeli civilians. They were not operating under the pretense of war, targeting military or security forces. Their goal was to terrorize, and their stated mission is the genocide of Israelis.

          There are no good guys in this story. No heroes. This is a holy war and there are two sides. Both feel justified to take any action against their enemies, and both see their enemies as less than human.

          Peace will not come without compromise, without forgiveness, without empathy. And looking at the pieces on the board, I don’t see any of that anywhere.

      Can’t we just agree that both sides are run my murderous assholes who commit atrocities against the entire civilian population in that area? This constant “but Israel”, " but Hamas" shit is making me sick. Both ruling groups are cunts and are standing in the way of peace.

        Just wait till we find out the rapists were those Palestinian terrorists named Monday, Tueday and Wednesday. You know, the one’s who beheaded those 40 babies with their guns behind the MRI machines. Totally real and evil terrorists.

                I deleted that last comment as I didn’t think it was entirely relevant but this fucking zionist is pissing me off, so here it is:

                This is a video of the current Minister of Women’s Empowerment in the apartheid Israel government, May Golan, a Kahanist previously leading anti-Black riots in Tel Aviv

                Denying isreal is a country built on hate and wanting to destroy the people they deem beneath them, is what’s delusional.

                I’m blocking you now.

    I predict, based on past conflicts, that later you will find out that males were raped too. There will also be denial by some, even here, that it happened at all.

      I can’t find an article, but I heard a report of male hostages being sexually assaulted this morning on my local NPR member station.

      Anyway, free Palestine.
