I agree. Civilian death tolls have been rapidly going down, not increasing. The airstrikes match up with the tunnels systems. There is no credibility to claims of "indiscriminate" bombings. The high number of civilian casualties is simply and readily explained by the fact that Hamas refused to let people evacuate and forced them to remain behind to be used as human shields and martyrs. High civilian casualties is one of Hamas's weapons, and with Iran's influence campaigns and astroturfing, it's working to trick a lot of people whose ignorance and gullibility are going to allow Trump to win another term.
The only countries who've joined South Africa's complaint to the UN criminal court are dictatorships, authoritarian , and/or theocratic shitholes such as Iran, Syria, Bahrain, Iraq, Brazil, Venezuela, Malaysia, and Cuba. The question South Africa's complaint raises, after sorting through the circular logic, recursive reasoning, and claims attributed to incredible sources or simply "reports," is when did South Africa start doing Iran's bidding?
There's been some heinous war crimes committed by IDF soldiers, maybe even a culture that causes soldiers to go too far. Those are the exception, by a lot. I have faith that, as a democracy, credible accusations will be investigated and charged within the customs of Israel's military justice system, and most reports of atrocities have been highly exaggerated, recursive, and/or lack basic indicia of credibility.
"match up with tunnel systems" they leveled countless city blocks. They've bombed hospitals, they tell Palestinians to go to one part of Gaza where they say it's "safe" and then they bomb there too. Over 20,000 people dying is not a fucking accident, it's all intentional. They aren't even letting them eat or have water. Forced starvation and dehydration among the whole population, oh wow yeah that really doesn't sound like they're trying to get rid of all of them.
I wouldn't bother with this person. Stopped ages ago. They know all this information. Sadly when you're stuck in tunnel vision, no facts or evidence or rationales will ever get you out.
To them everything can be explained by Hamas.
Is Hamas in the room with us right now?
