I feel sorry for all the innocent Palestinians caught in between. And I hope that the bloody Hamas and their barbaric supporters are satisfied in getting their innocent compatriots massacred.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Israel’s military said it had struck more than 600 militant targets over the past few days as it expanded ground operations in the territory, where Palestinian civilians are in dire need of fuel, food and clean water as the war enters its fourth week.
Significantly fewer humanitarian aid trucks have reached the besieged enclave than are required, say U.N. Officials, and civil order has broken down with people storming U.N. warehouses in search of food.
Fadi, who lives in the Jabalia refugee camp on Gaza City’s northern outskirts and declined to give his last name, said the area was now in mortal danger from Israel’s ground offensive with tanks rumbling on its fringes.
On Monday, residents said Israeli forces carried out dozens of airstrikes on Gaza City’s eastern side, with some reporting the roar of tanks rolling in amid exchanges of fire.
Hamas’ armed wing said intense mortar fire had pushed them back, and fellow militants Islamic Jihad said its fighters were battling Israeli forces in the area.
Russian authorities said they had taken over an airport in the predominantly Muslim Dagestan region and arrested 60 people after hundreds of anti-Israel protesters stormed the facility in search of Jewish passengers on a plane from Israel.
The original article contains 1,059 words, the summary contains 205 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Impressive! Most impressive.
Those morons are going to kill each other and blame Hamas and they’ll literally have no one to blame but themselves
actually it’s a tactical flanking maneuver - unless hamas manages to anchor their forces to terrain that’s impassible they’re basically fucked - but since everything in Gaza is susceptible to saturation bombing, they’re entirely fucked.
unconditional surrender is the smart play
I don’t think it is too smart when your enemy wants to cleanse your ethnicity from the face of the planet.
that’s hamas’s position, yes.
Fighting for your existence is always the right choice.
interestingly enough, there wouldnt actually be any fighting if hamas hadnt attacked.
Just Palestinians being oppressed for another 50 years, right?
Hamas has attacked the Israeli civilians because they hate Israel, not because they want to free the Palestinians. They don’t give a single fuck about the Palestinians. Otherwise they wouldn’t dress in civilian clothes, wouldn’t put their military installations/launch sites in or near civilian buildings AND they would share their vast resources with the Palestinians.
Odd that they didn’t want to respond to that…
No matter the human suffering and trauma. If what happens in Gaza, happens to any western country the outcry would be enormous but right now they only turn a blind eye.
How many more civilian deads and suffering the Palestinian population needs to endure for Israel to stop the atrocities.
Killing 1400 doesn’t give them the right to kill 10 times more civilians. How many condemnations from human rights watch groups are going to convince Israel and their supporters that what they are doing is absolutely morally corrupt and they aren’t any better if not worse than Hamas.
I am personally appalled by the atrocities of Israel! This isn’t justified, this is absolutely disproportionate and horrific and if you don’t think the same I wonder what a “great” human being you might be.
If what happens in Gaza, happens to any western country the outcry would be enormous but right now they only turn a blind eye.
If any other country but Israel had thousands of rockets fired at it, there would be a massive outcry. Instead we have people cheering.
Can confirm, several rockets everyday. Checkout insta/snaps of people in the south. they are used to it now, drinking coffee and watching oncoming missile from Gaza. This is a very asymmetric war and people cheer a side because the other side has protections in place. Very weird times
What bullshit drink are you consuming? The Iron Dome has only a 90% success rate, so 10 % of the rockets come through. Those rockets maim and kill civilians.
The drink where I have to go to the bunker every now and then. My point was that the Israel defense system is pretty cool and the casualties per missile fired is much less than the other side.
Can you tell us how many maimed and injured civilians there are on both sides of this conflict before the 7th of October. I can tell you, according to OCHA:
- 152.560 Palestinians are injured, vs.
- 6.307 Israelians
And just for context the armed wing of Hamas is believed to be around 30K. How come the most “moral army in the world” has managed to injure and continues to kill and maim so many people, who evidently have nothing to do with Hamas?!?
Is this a proportionate measure? You should really question yourself how you would feel if you were on the other side of the fence.
And a friendly reminder that calling someone’s opinion a bullshit does not speak too highly of yourself.
The only difference now is that you are cheering when civilians are killed now in Gaza?
Removed by mod
I’m not cheering. But I do think that, if it ends with the removal of Hamas, it is a necessary evil. Remember that Hamas started this escalation and that Hamas could end it at any time by releasing the hostages and surrendering.
And my concern is even if they manage to dismantle Hamas, there would be another terror group that would fill the vacuum left after Hamas.
You can’t seriously expect that after all this, people in Gaza won’t radicalize. They are going through hell. And let’s not forget that the majority of those people are living peacefully, are not part of Hamas and haven’t voted for Hamas. Why should they suffer?
And for the record we already see a lot of cases silently endorsed by the IDF and the Israelian government of settlers attacking unprovoked, Palestinians in the West Bank. There were a couple of notable killings as well. So explain to me, how is this different from what Hamas is doing and why those people are not persecuted and given effective sentences?
And why food, electricity, and fuel is not allowed into Gaza? IDF is claiming that Hamas has a stockpile of all of this, so explain to me the rationale of restricting all those and creating a horrible humanitarian catastrophe.
There are reports of kids forced to drink salty water, because there isn’t enough drinking water, of doctors who need to operate without anesthesia, of people having not enough food. Hundreds of thousands are expulsed and living in makeshift tents, they cannot escape even if they want, there is bombardment all across Gaza and there isn’t a single safe space and houses are indiscriminately destroyed. What IDF would leave would be only death, destruction and immense suffering. Isn’t this collective punishment? Is this humane treatment? And how come all of this is coming from a nation who was historically oppressed and suffered immensely. So right now they pretty much repeat all the horrors they were enduring to another nation.
And call me a pessimist, but I don’t think this is a recipe for long lasting peace!
There was a massive outcry from the world. It sounds like this: “Its horrible that rockets are getting fired at you! Here is a multi-billion dollar rocket defense system! But if you want the rockets to stop, end your brutal apartheid regime!”
Sadly, the Zionist response is to install the rocket defense system and increase the brutality. Then they smear any critics, including most of the UN and nearly every human rights organization, as biased and antisemitic.
the last time this happened in a western nation it was a world war. the 2nd one. history is a thing, I suggest you educate yourself.
I am well aware of the history, fret not! But isn’t it human responsibility to try to avoid the mistakes we did in the past.
Or your point being that this has happened in the past, so it is perfectly fine to happen again?
conflict is inevitable. there will always be someone who desires something that someone else has - territory, money, resources, etc. when those people get enough supporters who share similar beliefs, war is the result. it’s the reality we exist in.
And it is up to the international community to say that this isn’t fine. I am totally with you.
The only problem is that no matter how many international organizations are trying to tell Israel that grabbing land from Palestinians isn’t okay, that creating illegal settlements isn’t okay, they continue doing it and incite violence. So they are historically the aggressor in this case.
yeah, if you look at maps from the last ~60+ years, that’s certainly true. it’s also true that Arab majority countries/organizations keep attacking Israel & they keep losing. each time they taste defeat, Israel seizes more territory. this is completely normal in wargaming (running strategic/tactical scenarios, not just 4x gaming), as well as in an active real world conflict.
an expected outcome arises from specific actions taken, or the wrong actions taken perhaps. it’s like whomever is leading hamas is stuck in an echo chamber - they keep fucking up. repeatedly, and then not learning from their mistakes. its just bizarre.
Any other nation would have launched a special operation in their homeland to rescue the hostages. They would also ask help from the un to assist. So this is not equivalent in any sense.
the IDF have special electronic warfare packages that identify friend vs foe.
