@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling The only ones with genocidal intent over there are Hamas. Israel is conducting a war to prevent their people from being genocided by Hamas. You're right though that genocide is always wrong. Any thoughts about Sudan?
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling Many left because the Arab nations told them to leave before they waged war on fledgling Israel. Some stayed. They became Israeli Arabs. This conflict is more nuanced than X allows us to discuss. Do you think Hamas and co would ever accept Jews living in Israel?
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling And no one ever said they can't. Did you know 20% of the Israeli population are Arab? Did you know there are even Arabs in the Israeli Parliament? Are Jews allowed to live in Gaza? (Israel forcibly removed them in 2005 - what did this achieve?)
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling I was waiting for this. It was the British Mandate of Palestine. Jews always lived there. "Free Palestine" used to be what the Jews there said, wanting it free of the British mandate! And if you think jihadis just want land, you're deluded.
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling Hard to discuss in so few characters, but if Israel laid down its arms, do you think Hamas and the other Palestinian jihad groups would do the same and they'd all live happily ever after?
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling So you have a problem with Hamas killing civilians (Israeli and Gazan dissidents), raising child fighters, and having it stated in their charter that they want to kill Jews? I'm pleased we've cleared this up.
@Anne30201116875@imdanabowling Presumably Anne, you also have a problem with Hamas members bringing up their children to kill Jews? A truly free Palestine is one free of that kind of thing.
@Fx1Jonny Also check your news source for bias. Mehdi's bias against Israel is well documented. Use critical thought and stop being a jihadi propaganda mouthpiece.
@Fx1Jonny Hamas literally murdered some of the hostages in captivity, including murdering the Bibas babies. They put on stage shows when they were releasing hostages, dead or alive. They wanted Israel to attack Gaza to encourage the world to turn on Israel and diaspora Jews.
@MsGrumpyPants@BoyGeorge@IrishUnity Hamas live streamed it. They were proud of it. I have no idea why idiots like you claim there's no evidence. Hamas have never denied it. They say they want to repeat it.
@HeidiBachram@HeidiBachram I've watched the whole speech. Yes, he mentions Nova and Oct 7th, but who is Ed to decide that the response is "disproportionate"? That word has been bandied around by people but no one is saying what they would have done instead.
@VividProwess@celinedion More proof that those with actual talent don't need to virtue signal and jump on a bandwagon they don't really understand just to keep themselves in the limelight.
@afalkhatib So many people don't give a damn about Palestinians. They just want an excuse to hate Israel because it's Jewish and to hate diaspora Jews. And Hamas can never be the bad guys because they kill Jews. What a time to be alive. ๐
@andyburnham Just as many Israelis may disagree with their government, so do many Brits disagree with our government. Do you actually think you'll change anything on the ground over there or just worsen attacks on British Jews? Shame on you.
