Human Rights Watch on Thursday accused Israel of using white phosphorus munitions in its military operations in Gaza and Lebanon, saying the use of such weapons puts civilians at risk of serious and long-term injury.
They told like half of Gaza to clear out in 24 hours, that’s well over a million people, it’s literally impossible to accomplish that. It’s to get deniability when killing civilians.
So Israel wants to kill civilians in Gaza? How ludicrous! They must have been doing exactly that for all these years, every single day! I wonder what happened right now that their drive to kill civilians peaked so much! Palestinians are totally innocent and don’t want to kill civilians in Israel though, right? This never happened, or did I miss anything?
This is the exact mindset that led to the Internment of Japanese Americans, or the frequent racism against Muslims for years after 9-11(and still going on to this day). People from a place do no represent the place they’re from, and a group of terrorists do not represent millions of people.
Look up what plausible deniability is. The goal is genocide, but they can’t just do genocide without pissing off the world. So they basically imprison 2.2 million people in a space the size of Seattle, destroy entire buildings, shoot unarmed people in Palestinian territory, bulldoze Palestinian homes or outright take them and give them to Israeli settlers. This naturally pisses people off. Hamas fires rockets in response. Israel blows even more shit up in response. They perpetuate the cycle put into motion when the UK stole Palestinian land and gave it to Israel.
Let’s not get the sequence of events wrong. Israel faced existential threads from day one of declaring independence, where the surrounding states immediately attacked. There was and is no compromise for Palestine, they want to destroy Israel. That is their official goal, not some secret or conspiracy.
Palestine is not a prison because they are super nice people and Israel is evil. The issue is terrorism. Israel needs to deal with it some way. You can argue that there are better ways, certainly. And that Israel is doing a crap job, like US prisons.
What is Israel supposed to do now? What would your plan be? More than one out of every 10’000 of your fellow people just got murdered. That’s like 46’000 people if it were the USA. That is the scale.
If we look at history, for example Nazis, do you think it was right to bomb Germany to the ground?
Source? Or is that just a hunch that you’re presenting as fact?
In fact, I’d be wary of saying anything without “reportedly” heavily attached in this kinda situation. There is so much propaganda and misinformation that stating anything as fact is dangerous.
I don’t know of one trust worthy source. But you can start reading from here.
As this is a very hot topic, follow links, read edit history and discussion. If you can, also read in different languages.
So you’re just talking out your ass and presenting as fact.
I asked for sources for your claim because I couldn’t find a single source saying it was Hamas, while multiple claimed Israel.
I’m the one actually doing research and being responsible about how I discuss this topic. You presented as fact something you couldn’t provide a single source for. I said “there’s reports” and was able to provide a handful of reports when asked.
I’ve read multiple books on the conflict, I know pretty detailed history going back to just prior to 1917. I don’t need a wikipedia article that goes back less than 20 years, thanks.

How about if you can, don’t present complete bullshit as fact? For starters, at least. Then maybe you can get on some goofy-ass multilingual high horse 🤦♂️
Telling people to leave when there is nowhere to go, Egypt is refusing to open their border and I doubt Israel is going to open theirs, isn’t not wanting to commit genocide: it’s a way to save face, to say “well they didn’t evacuate so it’s their problem.”
If they actually want to commit genocide, why are they telling the population to leave the dangerous areas, perform roof knocking, etc.?
They told like half of Gaza to clear out in 24 hours, that’s well over a million people, it’s literally impossible to accomplish that. It’s to get deniability when killing civilians.
They also then bombed the evacuation route, lol. Mustache twirling evil.

Of course they don’t. I think you’re mistaking Hamas for the general palestinian population
That’s only because hamas actively tries to be mistaken for general Palestinian population.
Then don’t fall for it
Bro that means you’re literally trying to help Hamas

To give the illusion of escape.
Well, you generally don’t declare to the world you’re doing genocide. You ask for forgiveness, not permission.
That was not what I was asking. They avoid killing them quite a bit, given the circumstances. Why would they do that if their goal was genocide?

They have another, competing goal of getting cheap labor out of the Palestinians.

They told people to gather in the city center, and then they bombed the city center
There’s reports of them bombing the exit corridor.

Thank you kindly.
Hamas bombed the escape routes. They need their human shields.

They stopped roof knocking last week.
