Hamas, together with thousands of Gazan civilians and aided and abetted by the UN agency UNRWA, kidnapped 250 innocent people on Oct 7.

As we found out today, the hostages were deliberately kept in civilian homes for months, right in the middle of a populated area with thousands of “civilians”. In the past few months, it was discovered that some hostages were kept at hospitals and at UNRWA schools and homes of UNRWA employees. The tactic employed by Hamas and anybody else complicit with it was to ensure that any rescue mission may potentially lead to a maximum amount of casualties for the sole purpose of propaganda… and boy have Hamas and the media and the UN milked this propaganda for all it’s worth.

Regardless what the UN and the media or anybody else want to claim, 100000% of the responsibility for any casualties rests solely on the hostage TAKERS, not the hostage RESCUERS. Israel has a duty and a responsibility to do whatever is necessary to protect their citizens and to rescue them. The fact that there was 50 or 100 or 200 or even 1000 casualties is not on Israel but on the perpetrators of the kidnappings and all those complicit in it.

There was a gunfight, and people were killed. Both sides were shooting so both sides hit civilians or anyone who was killed and injured. But again, the sole responsibility for any casualties lies with the kidnappers. They kidnapped the hostages. They took them deep into Gaza. They kept them captive in highly populated residential homes. Israel’s sole concern is to rescue the hostages. It’s really that simple.

If you don’t want people to die, don’t start a war, kidnap civilians and place them in the middle of a large population. To even attempt to criticize Israel in any way for any deaths is not only immoral and wrong, but it’s dangerous. Because the moment we assign even an ounce of blame on those rescuing hostages, you are giving a green light to terrorists everywhere to use the tactic of hostage taking and human shields and preventing the hostages from ever being rescued.

The issue of morality here does not lie with Israel but with any party of any kind even attempting to lay the blame on Israel. This isn’t a movie. This is real life and this is war. And it’s high time all the leftist imbeciles grow up and wake up. They are empowering terrorists to use tactics that are war crimes and crimes against humanity. They are the problem, not Israel. If anybody honestly does not understand the very basic concept of this, then seek help or f*** off.

@notshenetworks Omg we watched that last night and had so many thoughts and feelings.

@MalwareJake Agreed. CTI and red teams require a relatively mature organization.

@DriveKyte why are you threatening to report a car as stolen when the driver needed emergency surgery and had to return the car two days late and offered to pay? So hard to get a human to talk to…

Cybersecurity tabletop exercises are a great way to run through your incident response plan.

So in case of a site breach, what would you or your team do?

@leono2206 I'm pretty concerned with the fact that you can vote for "up to 5 individuals"...to fill 5 seats. So it's not even an election. And only one write-in option.

@SecBarbie New organizers needed. There is no way someone can claim they were that out of touch. Security cons already get bad raps for conduct and safety - if you are an organizer and cant foster safety and ethics, you shouldn’t be in power there.
