It's their own fault for not having blue eyes and blond hair.

Where is the (so-called) "free world"? They're the ones handing Israel the funding that paid for all those bombs and shells they're dropping on you, chief. That's where the (alleged) "free world" is at.
-
Here is how you catch them off guard: stop bombing Israel and killing Israeli -> Israel no longer has any use for bombs and shells. Imagine their frustration, having bombs and no way to use them...

Israel no longer has any use for bombs and shells.
Riiiight... and all Jewish people had to do to stop the poor, victimized Nazis from doing the Holocaust was to stop doing "Jewish-Bolshevism", right?
What other bullcrap do you want to peddle here, Clyde? Auschwitz was just a holiday destination with bad press, perhaps?

I became a father in December of 2019. I can't imagine the grief those parents have to endure. I don't care who they are, where they come from, or what they believe in, children are innocent and I grieve with those parents and mourn those babies and children lost. Fuck, I'm so tired of this shit...

Remember when bourgeois media was trying to justify Israel's actions based on a picture of dead infants that doesn't exist? This time it's actually real, but something tells me they don't care about it, for some nebulous reason
-
Nah these weren't decapitated so it's fair game

Jokes on you there was never a free world

I might care if they start condemning Hamas, but I ain't seeing that, quite the opposite.
Also was this even a real IDF attack this time or just yet another fake-news one that was really rocket misfire from their own side?

There is no moral or legal justification for what Israel is doing right now. And the Palestinian people have a legal and moral right to resist their occupation by whatever means they decide, according to the UN charter and international law. Israel has turned Gaza into an open air concentration camp. It is one of the most densely populated place on earth and half of its population are children. Israel has laid a complete siege to Gaza for 17 years, sniping civilians and paramedics from towers and bombing it every few years. It forcibly relocated people there and it controls nearly everything about Gaza, its water, food and electricity. The conditions that are there are Israel’s fault, and Israel is openly committing an ethnic cleansing with US support. Israel blames Hamas, but Israel literally funded Hamas and tried its best to dismantle every other political organization in the Palestinian resistance. A leaked cabal to the US even said that they prefer Hamas win’s so that they can level collective punishment on all of Gaza by labeling it a hostile state.
I always hear people in the US musing how they couldn’t imagine sitting idly by while the Holocaust happened in WW2, but now I hear those same people doing mental gymnastics to excuse some of the most horrible atrocities live on tv.

Any thoughts on the decades of increasing oppression the Palestinian people have suffered or are you just pretending this uprising is happening in a vacuum?
What is the permissible amount of violence with which to respond to attempted genocide?
I hate to be callous
Then don't be?
-
Agreed. That's why Israel shouldn't be surprised that Hamas retaliated a couple of weeks ago after years of Israel's large-scale killing sprees.
-
You call raping and killing civilians a retaliation? That will surely help Palestine’s cause
-
-
You're talking about how Isreal has spent the last 50 years doing a large scale violent apartheid on the Palestinian people right? That's gotta be the thing you're talking about here, because anything else would frankly be ridiculous.
-
but when your
own countrymenfellow ghetto inmates launch a large-scaleFTFY, apologist.

I think the point that people are trying to make is that Hamas terrorism isn’t representative of all Palestinian people.
I feel as though the focus should be on eradicating and arresting the terrorist cell not bombing the entire neighborhood where they live, civilians and all. Although I understand that an investigation needs to be completed to determine which group actually carried out the hospital bombing and whether it was deliberate.
I do feel as though as a westerner without formal education or study of the matter I’m not qualified to point fingers in the whole thing other than to say that one atrocity does not justify further atrocity.

Are the Palestinian people cracking down on Hamas themselves? No, Hamas is operating as their government on the strip.
They(the larger group of people who don't want this) could do something to change that, but they haven't. Of course it wouldn't be a peaceful change, but If your government doesn't represent you, do something about it or you lose your right to complain when it ends up causing you harm. It's not like revolutions are unheard of in history when the populace gets angry enough.
Same for Israel, the government is representing the people. The people could change the dynamic, but they choosing not to, and therefore the consequences are their own.
Life isn't fair. War isn't new. Humans can be very fucking brutal, vengeful, and stupid.

Sure, but there are rules of engagement. International law does not condone indiscriminate bombings. They want to kill as many people as possible with each strike.
They want to kill children. There's really no other conclusion when you look at the numbers.

@dan1101 wait, literal babies have to expect retaliation?
