@the-grifter removed their quoted postIn 40 years it will all be forgotten, and the Arab Palestinians will be living in peace in Israel in a Jewish state. Israel will be free from the river to the sea.
I understand also that Islam with its repressive rules is also imploding and more and more people, particularly women and girls are leaving.
@the-grifter removed their quoted postWhat is funny about this is that Hamas has just existed as the de facto head of state in Gaza since 2006 because there have been no elections held, and so it is difficult to say that they actually govern with the explicit consent of the people. Yet, that is enough for the permanent displacement and destruction of the Palestinian people, more or less, since you can regard the West Bank as a project of destruction that has been very much advanced since it all began.
The people at the start of this conflict who pointed to it as this thinly veiled attempt at destroying Palestine were completely right although they had appeared as alarmists.
The problem, though, is that the state of Israel may ultimately be destroyed by these actions as its legitimacy has completely disappeared and the desire of Western people to completely divest from it and right the wrongs of history is now stronger than ever before.
@Philokalia saidSuppose Trump bombs Russia killing thousands of Russians, and Putin responds in kind, in what world can Americans say dont bomb/kill us because we did not vote for Trump.

@Philokalia saidSo the consensus is that Russians civilians are being killed by indiscriminate bombing, while the American civilians should be protected by the rule of not bombing civilians. Is that also your opinion? It certainly aint mine. If you follow no rule and kill my civilians, then when I respond I will kill yours.
I thought the consensus was that it's generally just... like... ALWAYS BAD to attack civilians?
In your world, terrorist smile and continue to thrive. In mine, they are put down .. their families and loved ones too.
@Rajk999 saidWait, do you think I am a supporter of the Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian apartment blocks?

Because I am not.
And why are you proud to say that you kill the families of "terrorists?" Very odd.

Killing civilians…
@shavixmir saidLife lesson - if you dont want civilians killed, then dont kill the civilians of other nations.
Killing civilians…

You attack and kill my civilians.
I will attack and kill yours.
If you ignore the Geneva Convention rules of war.
I will do likewise.
In the case of terrorists, the whole family is going to die.
Terrorists target, rape and kill entire families.
Their killing is indiscriminate, so they will receive similar treatment.
One side cannot be bound by the Geneva Convention, while the other is not.
Its ridiculous.
