I know. Hamas is bad at killing Israelis. But they keep trying it.

[-] DoomBot5@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

They're also very good at using human shields.

If there is 6000 people in a square kilometre you can always blame the use of "human shields" to distract from the fact that you are bombing densely populated area and your "surgical strikes" are not that surgical.

[-] snek@lemmy.world -2 points 10 months ago

Hmmm, there is more documented evidence of Israel using human shields (and having to make it "illegal" to keep using Palestinians as human shields but it still happens and many get away with it).

[-] DoomBot5@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Hamas propaganda videos don't count as documented evidence.

[-] snek@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago

No, it's not frim Hamas propaganda videos. It's every human rights organization.

Here is a full history of how they had to outlaw it: https://www.btselem.org/human_shields

It was part of Israel law. Totally legal.

Ah, I'm "lawyering around about historical shit" (historical being within a lifetime) but I'm the one with a cold dead soul because hundreds of "the good people" who stole the land died, and you're the one with a heart of gold who thinks it's lol-worthy and likes to make jokes when tens of thousands of "the bad people" die fighting for their stolen land.

Let me know when you want to attempt to argue in good faith, because as I said from the beginning I'm not well educated on the subject, and your tactics are failing.

And there you go, dehumanizing the victims and justifying their murder.

[-] Synnr@sopuli.xyz -1 points 10 months ago

Are you trying to guess what my reply would be? If not, you seriously need to look in the mirror bud.

Hamas is a terrorist organization. They are horrific and should all be taken care of.. take that how you will. Palestinians and Israel is should be able to live in peace. This much is self evident and shouldn't be up for debate like you're trying to do.

But Israel lobbing back over bombs and killing innocent civilians is the Spider-Man pointing at himself meme.

Then the Gazans need to stop sheltering Hamas.

[-] drekly@lemmy.world -2 points 10 months ago

Sounds familiar

The worst part of this graph is that it only goes back to 2008.
