There's already a wikipedia entry on anti-Jewish actions in the Caucasus.

For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces

The premier's policy of treating the terror group as a partner, at the expense of Abbas and Palestinian statehood, has resulted in wounds that will take Israel years to heal from

Uhh, no?

The Oslo accords were both signed by Yasser Arafat and Yitzak Rabin.

How old are you? Where are you from? And why is your knowledge of history so shit?

If that accord was signed and accepted, then why did they start the second intifada?

Note that your response will be fact checked.

How many are protesting against Israel but not clued up on Hamas thinking they are innocent

They would have to be pretty dumb for them not to know what happened on 7 October. If they’re vocally anti-Israel without being equivalently vocal about Hamas then it’s not about wanting peace.

They are a far-right, racist, conspiracy peddling pile of shit with a long documented history of deliberately posting fake and misleading stories inlcuding on this very subject.

No one with any self respect should be reading that shit, let alone posting it to inflict it on others.

This is literally a news company that promoted the Obama birtherism myth and the Pizzagate conspiracy theory that Hilary Clinton and a secret cabal of democrats were abusing children in the basement of a pizza parlour that lead to an armed gunman shooting up the pizza place - which has no basement.


I mean...

Breitbart News - Wikipedia

You probably shouldn't trust what leftwing media claims about conservative media.

For what it's worth, Breitbart is no more misleading than say Vox, NPR or MSNBC. Yet I doubt you'd throw a fit if someone posted an article from those sources.

Like the guy said, the article he posted is sourced. So you can reach your own conclusions or check the source to make sure Breitbart, like most news organizations with a lean, isn't misrepresenting what it is stating

YouTube again? Or Wikipedia this time?

Edit: :) Sorry, that probably sounded condescending. It wasn't supposed to be. I just thought it was a weird "threat".

She should know all about hate , it oozes out of her every pore

Nothing wrong with supporting the palestine people, they are not hamas

Did you see any banner which criticised Hamas while supporting the Palestinian cause/

Even if there are innocent civilians there? Yeah that's barbaric. Asking sick people, disabled people, paralysed people, elderly people, children who literally can't move out of the way to move out of the way while Israel levels their homes, their entire neighbourhoods, murders entire families is very noble. Well done Israel. It's not like they're also bombing the places they're telling them to go to, so what good is these 'noble warnings' when the civilians get bombed into oblivion in the places they were told to flee to.

Hamas are disgusting, bloodthirsty terrorists. Sadly, Israel are also disgusting bloodthirsty terrorists. You don't get to drop thousands of bombs on people indiscriminately every day for weeks and weeks and then still try to claim some kind of moral purity and superiority. Palestinian civilians aren't any more fair game than Israeli civilians are, and the fact you are trying make that claim is utterly abhorrent.

Avoiding civilian casualty was why the IDF has asked them to move out before the ground offensive begins.
Hamas on the other hand wants them to stay so they could serve as human shield.
You can not condemn Israel and Hamas because one wants to save lives, the other wants to kill.
They even stated that they love death as much as we love life.

You just called Hamas an ideological group, even though you denied it was in a previous post .....

Hamas runs on an ideology. I.e. that Islam should rule in the whole of Palestine ( and longer term the world). Many Muslims believe the ideology, but only an extreme few are willing to pay the cost for it. That few is the militant Hamas that needs and should be destroyed.

Hamas is a political and Militant group that runs on an ideology. You can destroy the former. The ideology is the ideology.

As we type there are members in the U.S and UK who operate and believe in this ideology but intend to use Democracy as it's tool for achieving the same goal (at least initially.) I'm not suggesting the attack on that even if I personally oppose it.

But in the case of Hamas and groups like it, I wholeheartedly endorse destruction.

Look, I don't have a horse in this race but coming out with things like the Hamas attack was genocide, that what the Israelis are currently doing is genocide, that civilians have to face the consequences if they can't leave a protected area or "what else can Israel do?" as if there are no alternatives just doesn't progress any debate. All those points are nonsense.

Imho.

I think youve summarized lots of opinions you disagree with in general. Most of which I don't hold.

Also, it's not like Israel aren't dropping bombs in the south and the Rafah crossing, so to telling these civilians to flee the north because a bomb is coming is not the noble gesture that is being claimed, when Israel are bombing the shit out the very places they're telling civilians to flee to.

The bomb they dropped at the crossing was targeting a tunnel. Did you see the crater caused by the ordinance?
