I see. I disagree. Hamas's actions are utterly deplorable but also entirely expected. This is what oppressed people do. I also think you're wrong that Hamas have done nothing for Palestinians. They've never had as much international support as they do now.

Umm... What?

It's always avoidable. It's also still quite possible

Whichever noun you use to describe them is fine by me.

I see your point. I tend to believe the Palestinian figures simply because they have a history of being reasonably accurate with casualty numbers and the IDF has a history of lying or at least playing down casualties

What part did you disagree with?

Minimising civilian casualties is literally their responsibility under international law

Historically the figures released by the Palestinian health system have been acknowledged as pretty accurate. From the Telegraph : "In previous rounds of fighting in the Strip, the total number of deaths reported by the Gazan authorities have been found to be broadly accurate, not differing significantly from estimates produced by the UN or IDF. There have, however, always been disputes over the civilian/combatant split."

Not trying to hate, just not understanding what point you were trying to make.

The Dutch have been working on this for ages : https://lightyear.one/

Not really. You're responding to something I didn't claim. But enjoy tilting at that strawman

As a landlord, you might be a little biased?

Huzza!

Use your words

If it were my country, I would want peace. Israel will never have peace until Palestine has peace. That will never be gained via military means.

Yes because Oct 7 happened apropos of nothing

Or, you know, they could just get them all back by agreeing to a peace deal and not killing anyone

Desperate people do desperate things

I wouldn't negotiate with Israel either

Just think about how many lives could have been saved if Israel worked towards a two state solution
