Quote from OP : " If they are not released prior to the ground offensive, which could come at any time, they will certainly become collateral damage. If anything happens to the hostages, the Israeli forces would be blamed." - As per international law = YES because they are non combatants.

Be careful you. Whatever your agenda. Be careful you !

You can't be Jew by race : that's what Jingting tells all the time : Jews are non monolithic

I support the Palestinian civilians that have nothing to do with the Hamas franchise. I also supported the Israeli civilians that had nothing to do with the Israeli apartheid policy. Still on AN you have people going to drag you in the mud because you want to stay neutral (the non-Zionist and non-Salafist approach).

They have been warned by Egypt. So, it could have been avoided. https://www.timesofisrael.com/egypt-intelligence-official-says-israel-ignored-repeated-warnings-of-something-big/

My answer was based on the still living Palestinians in Gaza that are non combatants. Your question didn't specify the group, so I've provided the group I'm worried about. Since then, you try to drag me in the mud as a liar...

Yep, when Bibi comes for a speech in front of IDF troops as PR : no gun magazines allowed.

I think that the CIA told to Israel : "Don't bring in these guys, you will get your hair on fire and you will use your hammer to extinguish".

Every Middle Eastern expert knows who created Hamas and why.

Common, come back. Many IDF soldiers also want to quit the army since march/july 2023 because of the political situation. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/07/23/elite-israeli-soldiers-quit-idf-netanyahu-judicial-reform/

Hamas aims Israeli settler hostages for Palestinian prisoner exchanges. These Palestinian prisoners are long term prisoners listed here below and were put in jail long BEFORE 7th of October 2023. https://www.amnesty.org/en/location/middle-east-and-north-africa/israel-and-occupied-palestinian-territories/report-israel-and-occupied-palestinian-territories/

1 million Palestinians murdered in less than 2 weeks : that's bold and far away from reality. Can you explain how you qualify these extra legal bombings from Israel on non combatant civilians?

Here a few of them : https://www.amnesty.org/en/location/middle-east-and-north-africa/israel-and-occupied-palestinian-territories/report-israel-and-occupied-palestinian-territories/

OK, same same like a serial killer gets only accountable on his last murder (maybe)...and his long history of crimes is not relevant to conclude the motives.

Al Jazeera has a team of reporters in Gaza. They've filmed just after the bombing when all the corpses are laying on the parking lot and the gardens and when the medics were trying to make a selection of the wounded. I've these footages but I can't post them online due to disturbing content + some usual posters would report this as non trustable source because these images have been recorded with cell phones. Impact of the "pothole" is pointing to SW by the way. The load didn't came down on 90 degrees angle...The rest is speculation and war propaganda which I won't participate. People even were convinced in the beginning that there was no impact/crater....

I did already : https://aseannow.com/topic/1308598-israel-is-at-war/?do=findComment&comment=18445354

Yes x2

Yes, she's biased. It's not coincidence that she could voice her "international law" perspective...

Quote from link : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Hamas_attack_on_Israel " Mohammed Deif, commander of the attack, named the operation "Al-Aqsa Flood" in reference to the 2022 Al-Aqsa clashes, in which Israeli police raided the mosque following clashes between Palestinians and police."

The lawyer is considering that the Hamas crime started on 7th of October 2023. Her selective memory has been lost for all IDF extra-judicial military interventions BEFORE 7th of October 2023.

I have the same feeling, and I couldn't summarize it better. Thanks Mojo.

As long as it fits the hasbara agenda...

Many of these non-Hamas Palestinians from Gaza don't want to leave Gaza for Nakbah 2.0. They still remember what happened on Nakbah 1.0. and 1967 with the forced evictions and executions

It is genocide. https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml#:~:text=To constitute genocide%2C there must,to simply disperse a group.
