“No one is looking at us or the extent of this disaster or the crimes that we are experiencing in Gaza,” he said. Still holding his microphone, he slid off his flak jacket marked with the word PRESS and unstrapped his helmet.
“These protection jackets and helmets don’t protect us,” he said, flinging the equipment to the ground. “Nothing protects journalists. … We lose our lives for no reason.”
How do you know who is Hamas and who is a civilian? It’s not like Hamas honorably sticks to identifiable uniforms in this war they started
If they filter through the border they can’t be armed. It’d be pretty easy to take away all their arms if no one was left to guard their tunnels.
The war has been going on since long before October.
That’s pretty clearly not true

7 October to present
You said there wasn’t a outstanding conflict going on before October. “That’s pretty clearly not true”
I provided you counter examples. Now you have evidence of the conflict activity before October.
Uhh, no. I said Hamas started this war. Which they did. On 7 Oct. Before then, there was no war. Now, there’s war. Idk what you want
I want you to understand that there are people in this conflict that see a continuation of violence since 1948 and that the situation was not “at peace” before october
This guy’s understanding of this conflict was clearly just what he gleaned from watching an hour of CNN last week. It’s not worth the effort.
And I want you to see that the situation was relatively stable and peaceful on 6 Oct before Hamas started this war
If you insist.
it’s really obvious:
in a tunnel underground? terrorist
shooting Israeli’s? terrorist
not getting the fuck out of an active war zone and pretending to be a civilian? terrorist
Should all of Ukraine abandon their land because Russia declared their land an active war zone?
If someone invades your country do you not have the right to fight back? You’re basically saying, leave or die. How does this logic not apply to the attacks of oct. 7th? Not defending said attacks, just pointing out how utterly brainless your statement is. It also sounds like approval of genocide.
