So it looks like Trump has read the fascist playbook or something. I’m not surprised. I am concerned.

Edit: After thinking about it, I guess I am surprised that he can read.

    So the only option is to murder the human shield.

    11 thousand of them in 1.5 months in fact.

      Well the other option is try and move ground troops in, which not only risks their lives, but the human shield is still risked.

      Hamas ceasing to exist would prevent the civilian casualties though, but Hamas wants as many civilians as possible to die.

      And given Israel has the ability to kill all 1 million of them in that time, they must really just be terrible at this genocide thing.

        Or… you know… wait until they move away from the human shield.

        • @Tavarin@lemmy.ca

          Hamas will not. Hamas is firing long range rockets from within civilian infrastructure, and Hamas wants civilians to die by Israeli counterattacks. Hamas will never leave the human shield.

          Hamas is not a rational entity that is fighting for the good of Palestinians, and trying to save as many of them as they can. Hamas’ only goal is the annihilation of all Jews, and the more Palestinians that die the better it is in Hamas’ mind.

            What the fuck is wrong with you?

            It was a short range anti tank missile at a group of IDF troops shooting down people on the street outside the hospital instead of breaching the hospital.

            At this point, I am seriously wondering if you are just that stupid, or of I am talking to a genuine IDF disinformation agent.

              That’s 1 attack out of the thousands. Hamas has fired thousands of rockets into Israel.

              I’m seriously wondering how stupid you are. Do you honestly think Hamas has only fired 1 rocket ever?

                Are we talking about in the history of Israel or in the last month and a half?

                Because Israel has been constantly shelling Palestine for a month and a half and in that month and a half 1 missile has been fired by Hamas.
