Hamas has called on Palestinians to stay in their homes after Israel issued sweeping evacuation orders for almost half of Gaza’s more than 2.3 million people ahead of an expected ground offensive.
The Hamas authority for refugee affairs today told residents in the north of the territory to “remain steadfast in your homes and to stand firm in the face of this disgusting psychological war waged by the occupation”.
Imagine a country has blockaded all of your borders. No one can leave, your power plants cant import fuel, not even humanitarian aid is allowed in, and people are dying as a result. You want them to just wait for a slow death?
this shitty false dichotomy again, the options aren’t just dying or murdering civilians, but I would rather just die than murder random civilians in a party anyway
Its not a choice between the two, people were already dying. How do you stop them from dying?
I don’t think there is a good answer for that, but someone will have to take hamas down. I don’t blame the Palestine people for not dying trying to take them down, and I don’t blame Israel for doing it either.
On what they should do about Israel, almost any kind of protest you can imagine would give better results than the shit hamas is doing.
They could throw poo on baloons on Israel direction. They could invade dressed weirdly and throwing pies or water on the face of Israelis. Anything that would make them annoyed, think on the problem, and that had the chance of bringing people to their side instead inviting a war they won’t win.
Hamas isn’t there to solve the problem. They knew from the start what reaction it would cause and that it wouldn’t improve palestinian lives or piece. They wanted to make things worse to keep relevant for the people that want war
