Bodies of Israeli residents and Palestinian militants lay outside of burned-out homes in the Israeli kibbutz Kfar Aza on Tuesday, days after Hamas launched a large-scale surprise assault on Israel, sending heavily armed fighters pouring across the border from Gaza and rampaging through rural communities.
What whitewashing hogwash. “They made us blow up those buildings!” Israel is very much an active participant in them destroying buildings. These aren’t mistakes and aren’t heading off a clear and present danger, they’re retribution. That Hamas made them rightfully angry doesn’t in any way absolve their responsibility for their own choices.
Buildings are not lives.
Holy fuck, how did you think those Palestinians are dying? Natural causes?
They’re dying because, in part, Hamas has told them to not leave hot areas for designated safe zones and because Hamas refuses to create military and government installations that aren’t dual purpose with civilian purposes (like schools and hospitals).
I’m sure at the end of this conflict, we’ll find out that there were misfires and some ominous bombinga by Israel and those who did it will get court martialed; but the overwhelming number of strikes are at valid military targets.
