    What are you talking about.

    Is this the statement that made him Hamas? Fuck off with your goalposts

    “If you want a besieged Palestinian to condemn it, you need to declare that you condemn what Israel [has] been doing against Palestinians before the 7th of October, since 1948 and during the genocide, and after it. Palestinians are not or not terrorists, Israeli killing Palestinians everyday like it’s a duty for them. Israel is a terror state,” Azaiza wrote on March 11, after he had left Gaza for his new base in Qatar.

    'I am a Zionist,' says Biden at Hanukkah event, promises continued military assistance to Israel

    Jump

  • The statement was that Jewish people would not be safe anywhere without Israel

    There are Jewish people living safely in many parts of the world, and those people are protected and loved by the communities they live as a part of.

    The irony is that the statement was made to Jewish people in such a community outside of Israel. The other bit of irony is that statements like this are further divisions. Divisions that make life unsafe for everyone

  • I'm not American and not the commentor, I'm observing from far away.

    I agree, people should vote for the best possible candidate. Even single issue voters. The alternative is worse for this single issue. If I was American, I'd vote strategically like people on this thread are saying.

    However

    There are Americans that had friends, family members, and colleagues killed in this conflict, and they can't stomach going to the polls and voting for Biden after how he's acted throughout this conflict. I won't hold it against those people for not voting.

    I can't even imagine what it would be like to have that happen and be told "go vote for him anyways". As true as it might be, it's not my place.

  • Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago

    Jump

  • Which parts of it?

    I don't think Netanyahu orchestrated it if that matters. Same idea as Bush

    We should investigate when leadership benefits from a tragedy. We should investigate the decisions that allowed a tragedy to take place. That's how we prevent future tragedies

  • Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago

    Jump

  • Sorry, I will highlight the important bit

    Removed from power through legal means, by the people they state they represent. Removing either group with violence will beget more violence. A new entity with the same ideology will fill the gap.

    Hamas as an organization has its own problems, and they share a lot of the same issues as Likud. They both hold on to power through violence and fear.

  • Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago

    Jump

  • Even if it wasn't intentional

    • he directly stated in a speech that he approved funding transfer to Hamas to help them grow in power to keep the people divided

    • they moved soldiers away from the border to the west bank to help with settlements

    • as this article suggests, they had a lot of warnings

    Those 3 points alone should be enough to send him and his party away, and until that happens (and until Hamas is also removed from power), that region won't see peace.

    We need to let the legal system do its job, and for both Likud & Hamas to be removed from power through LEGAL MEANS by the people they say they represent.

  • Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago

  • The "funding" was confirmed by him from a past speech. Funding is in quotes because it wasn't all direct funding, and that particular speech was about him signing off on a transfer of funds from someone else to Hamas. But the underlying motivation is still accurate because... that's what he said the reason was. He said he wanted Hamas to have more funding so they would rise in power and keep the people divided.

    The rest of it is stuff that can never be proved in favor or against unless you can read minds. However, it seems more than likely if you take into account the wider history of him, his party, and the region.

    On the other side of this you have years of massive protests within Israel by Israeli citizens, and ongoing criminal and corruption charges against him and his associates within Israel.

    A violent war would help him, and that's not a conspiracy

  • I've seen this posted elsewhere, and while it's a valid thing to talk about it distracts from the bigger issues

    Others here have explained the difference between someone who's taken as a prisoner (they are being held because of something they allegedly did) and someone who's taken hostage (someone who's held as security for some other purpose). From what I can tell, even Hamas isn't saying the hostages are guilty of anything. It seems like those involved in the situation agree that the terminology is appropriate.

    The more important discussion imo are:

    • Whether the charges against the prisoners are appropriate, or if there's a history of charges, arrests, and detention without justification or evidence. I think this is the point people are trying to make when they bring up hostages vs. prisoners, but if you aren't specific about it you end up going in circles and arguing about the wrong thing.
    • Whether those are being held (both hostages and prisoners) are being treated with respect and dignity. If their needs are being met and if they are being tortured / otherwise suffering unjustly.

    There is also some more important discussion around terminology, such as one group being called "women" (implies humanity) and another "females" (more formal, scientific, and a term that's also used for animals).

  • The story may be true, but regardless we need to link to better sources than this site. There was a problematic article the other day as well.

    That's true regardless of which side you're advocating for. Post good sources and the truth will help the innocent people suffering all around.
