Palestinian death toll rises to 1500.

This in a few days of bombs and missiles into civilian areas. This is before the ground offensive starts and before or the health system collapses. Two things that are about to happen.

This is likely to result in tens of thousands of deaths and many more due to starvation and disease. This is before we get to life changing injuries, which will be tens of thousands again.

I'm not shedding a tear for the Hama's fighters who targeted civilians but I am for everyone else. If a whole population must be made collectively responsible for the actions of their government then, well I deserve to die. By logical extension, I must be responsible for the Iraq war, Brexit and all the poverty caused by Tory austerity policies.

Do we value all lives equally? If we do, then we should be all be condemning the actions of the Israeli state.

Tell Hamas not to behead little babies and then they maybe won't get attacked. As you know, civilian casualties are inevitable in any war, especially when the terrorists are hiding in schools and hospitals, but at least the Israelis make an effort not to target innocent civilians.

@Guitarman123 Dude, you tried this little chart the other day. Try to get your pea brain around the fact that has to attack Hamas because [i]it is constantly being attacked.[/i] In war, unfortunately, there are civilian casualties, including children, especially when your Hamas heroes are hiding in schools and hospitals. And how about the Israeli civilians who were deliberately slaughtered by the horrific Hamas attack, including verified news that [b]babies were beheaded.[/b] I expect someone like you to support Hamas, but [b]how can any reasonable person side with Hamas, especially after this atrocity?[/b]

@specman Why would any decent person want to stand with a nation of war criminals?

specman · 51-55, M

@Diotrephes I don’t know why you are standing by Hamas

@specman [quote]I don’t know why you are standing by Hamas[/quote]

I'm standing on the side of what's right.

Are you familar with the recent looting events in Philadelphia? A small group of thugs went wild and broke into stores and looted them. They then ran back to their neighborhoods. This is essentially what Hamas did. So, in retaliation, the Israelis are bombing Hamas' neighborhood, killing countless innocent people and destroying everything that they have and even depriving them of water and food.

Since you approve of the Israelis' actions wouldn't you also approve of the bombing of the thugs neighborhoods in Philadelphia in order to get rid of them?

Israel is plainly violating the Geneva Conventions in its attack on Palestinian people who are not part of Hamas. Israel is therefore committing war crimes and its leaders should be arrested and tried for war crimes.

@Diotrephes The Palestinians were celebrating the Hamas attack and the beheading of babies, murder and rape. From long long long ago Palestinians and Israelis have been feuding. I’m pretty sure Hamas broke some war rules too on their attack. That land was given to Israel way back in history.
I’m for Israel.

@specman Rothschild got the British to give it to him, although it didn't belong to the British.

You are kidding, right?
