"Uproot your entire family in 24 hours, move several miles on foot to a new home into a place where there are already a million people packed in."
Seems reasonable.

If I rape and kill your wife, and then hide behind my children so neither you, nor law enforcement can punish me for my crimes without first killing my kids, are you and/or law enforcement committing a crime against humanity for doing so?

No, I am committing the crimes in that scenario. Both the initial crime, and the crime of using innocents as shields.

Dude used a thousand words to unwittingly convey age old truths. War is hell. The more you frick around, the more you find out. And here you are asking if he is right.

Israel gave the Palestinians plenty of time to pack their drawers and to get out of Gaza. If they chose to stay that's on them.

Hamas drew blood first.

Gaza must be turned into a wildlife refuge similar to Sherburne by the spillway. No one can be allowed to live there.

The hamas ideology has to go and the Palestinians can go live in Egypt or Libya, its' kind of odd that no one wants them. Wonder why ?

They had well over a month.

Listening to the bleeding hearts, you would think Palestinians are the only people who suffer from war. If you listen to idiots, you'll find plenty of room to rage over this war.

You can cry for the Israeli victims of the Hamas attack and still be horrified at the loss of innocent civilian life in Gaza.

Oh, so the dead Israelis were mostly killed by Israelis and not the people who paraglided in to massacre them?


Hamas had small arms, how did all those cars get torched?

Israel may win the battle but will lose the war.

They can kill all Hamas militants but not the ideology. Something similar or worse will emerge.

Hard to get revenge if you are dead. They FAFO that invading a sovereign country and viscously massacring hundreds of their citizens will bring fire and brimstone down upon their heads. I sympathize for the innocent children, but when I hear their citizenry praising Hamas for their actions, I lose it pretty quickly.

I’ll defer to the late Gen. Curtis LeMay on this one: “If you kill enough of them, eventually they’ll stop fighting.”

Seventy-two percent of respondents said they believed the Hamas decision to launch the cross-border rampage in southern Israel was "correct" given its outcome so far, while 22% said it was "incorrect". The remainder were undecided or gave no answer.
. The people want this war. They support it and think it's a good thing.

Imagine being a "Christian" and supporting what Israel has been doing.

BTW, its likely that more Palestian Christians have been killed by Israeli attacks now than Israelis who were killed by Palestinians in the "surprise" attack.

They've done nothing but beg to be killed in large numbers for decades now. They fricked around in Jordan, and got run out of there. They fricked around in Egypt and got run out of there. They've conducted a persistent terror campaign against Israel for generations now. Would you like to live next to them, and contemplate the slaughter of your family every day? It's not who is doing it that makes it the right thing to do. It is the murderous fricking animals that must be killed that makes it the right thing to do. And not even Israel is talking about genocide. They just want the threat to their citizens eliminated. Any sane person would not only want, but expect and demand the same from their government.

Israel LET the October 7th attack happen. That is as morally reprehensible as the attacks themselves.
