I've decided this thread is going to be my main source of news and opinion because holy poo poo the internet is full of the worst possible takes and somehow a bunch of broke brained vets on a dead comedy site are the most sane I'll encounter. It's unsettling as gently caress seeing Jewish friends and acquaintances whose political social media activity doesn't usually go beyond pro-Democratic politician reposts start putting up poo poo about since Hamas schools train Palestinian children to be terrorists so it's morally justified to wipe out Gaza.

BUUNNI posted:I wonder if the IDF spokesperson will ever have a “are we the baddies” moment Given that the message is being delivered in English via the internet to Arabic speakers in a region where electricity and cell service has been cut off by the people delivering the message... I don't think that message is actually directed at Gazans.

Well unlike the hospital, there is no denying the responsibility for this one: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67276822.amp Dozens of refugees bombed to get one Hamas member.

Lovely Joe Stalin posted:Turns out the body count at the rave was, at least in part, the result of an IDF gunship lighting up party goers. The more that comes out about the IDF response on that day the more it seems they really did just not give a gently caress about separating their own people from the hostiles. Blue on blue between disparate infantry units stumbling over each other while there was no clear C&C I can understand, but stuff like this or the tanks apparently firing on houses with hostages in as prelim to clearing them, it's nuts. Well according to the West Bank settlers NPR interviewed a few weeks ago, the partiers were a bunch of peaceniks, so they had it coming.

It's an article of faith for the Israeli right (and center-right) that the rest of the world hates Jews and will never help them, so they are justified in protecting themselves by any means necessary, rest of the world be damned.

Gonna go against the grain and suggest that Israel is not engaged in genocide. Israel does not have the goal of exterminating the Palestinian people. They'd be fine if that happens, but that is not the goal. They want them somewhere else. Jordan, Egypt, dead, doesn't matter to them but dead isn't the explicit goal. Based on what the actions have been mlmp08 posted:
This is ethnic cleansing. Israel is incontrovertibly engaged in ethnic cleansing which is also a crime against humanity but doesn't rhyme with anything snappy so it's less popular of an accusation.
