Killing 1200 people is still bad

Palestinians have a right to defend themselves.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Don’t Israelies have that right too?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can't starve children to death in self defence.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Agree. There’s a lot they are doing that is awful. Both sides are doing awful things is my point

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

One side is literally thousands of times more awful, let's deal with that first

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, occupied people have that right, occupiers do not.

Ah I see so the Indians should slay Americans who are immigrants? And perhaps those immigrants should slay the newer immigrants? /s

Indians aren't forced into an open air prison and denied self determination or citizenship.

Let's compare the numbers, so far a 1200 Israeli's were murdered on the opening day, and maybe 100 more deaths from combat. Total deaths 1300-ish. In the Gaza strip alone over 62,000-ish people have been killed. Using Israel's numbers from before the war they estimated maybe 50,000 active Hamas members. It's orders of magnitude different. Even assuming Hamas died first that still means Israel murdered 12,000 innocent people. Hamas is bad, but the state of Israel is a genocidal monster.

62,000 is the number of confirmed munitions deaths and it's been frozen for months. The actual total killed has been estimated in the arena of half a million.

There will always be collateral damage even though it’s very hard to justify and basically impossible to justify when there’s children involved. I will point out that the line between Hamas combatant and “civilian” can be very grey. Palestinians voted for Hamas knowing they had a mandate to destroy Israel. On the oct 7 attacks Hamas were joined by non combatants. Imagine your army marching down your street on their way to kill your neighbour so you put down what you’re doing to join them and kill your neighbour too. This is basically what happened

For anyone seeing this comment this nunber also a lie. Last proven around 700 or 800 killed ignoring how many killed by Israeli themselves shilling homes where hamas had israeli hostages and cars that trying to get into gaza with hostages.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

That makes it ok I suppose. And I’m sure Gaza would have been leveled if hamas decided to kill zero too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They didn't kill 1200, and even if they had, that number is negligible compared to the amount of Palestinians Israel had already murdered before October 7th, and basically 0 compared to how many they've killed since.

You just only care about white people.
