Hamas terrorists made this happen.
How are you going to just bring facts to this shit fest of propaganda driven bias confirmation? Sure HAMAS's stated goal is the destruction and genocide of Israel and just committed incredible atrocities... That ain't going to stop these terrorism apologists from drinking the Kool aid before they even get all of into the cup.
Bombing a convoy of ambulances is terrorism you root. Israel, the red cross and multiple news agencies were notified well in advance of this convoy leaving the hospital to transport these people to Egypt. They even provided Israel with the exact route it was going to be taking. Out here talking about koolaid when your whole face is stained red.
yea, calling out genocide is terrorist apologia. The 7000 Palestinian civilians sure had it coming, didn't they?
You do realize that an enormous swath of Israelis are of middle eastern descendency... Not to mention from pretty much every other nation in the world.
So since you Americans love to assign colors to people instead of seeing them as people... What color do you think Israelis are?
I will actually take a moment to explain this to you since I feel bad that most of you have had no exposure to the realities of conflict and American media is hardly reputable.
The truth of war is that there are always collateral deaths. This is probably the most important reason why war should be avoided. Until someone creates a magic bullet that can sort combatants from non combatants this will always remain a truth.
If you care for the people you love, you don't go rape, murder, and behead your neighbor and their children.
The collateral loss of Palestinians is an absolute tragedy. HAMAS combatants fleeing and hiding in civilian populations is the travesty though.
But there are no mental gymnastics here, many islamic groups and Arab nations are on record stating that their absolute goal is the total annihilation of Israel and the genocide of Israelis. Israel has no such message or stance.
If Israel wanted to ensure the genocide of the Palestinians they would have to do nothing more than to expel the Palestinians from their country and to push them to Jordan and Egypt who would shoot every Palestinian at their borders.
Israel is a nuclear power, if it's aim was genocide then this would have been the shortest war in history.
The facts do not support you.
