The point being whether it happened in a vacuum or not, there is absolutely no justification for what happened on Oct 7th no matter what grievances there were and the war did indeed commence after that event.

Credible links Jeff that they are POW's, not your pathetic attempts at minimizing what Hamas is doing and what they are. hostages held in horrific tunnels in Gaza probably getting sexually abused. Oh and there was no war when they were kidnapped, that came the next day when Israel declared it. I always provide links to my claims, unlike you. According to the 24-page report, there is "clear and convincing" information suggesting that sexual violence, including rape, sexualized torture, and other forms of abuse, was committed against hostages held in captivity by Hamas in Gaza. Moreover, there are "reasonable grounds" to believe that such violence is ongoing against those still held captive.

Yes the link I posted does not say they are POW's. More nonsense its not up to me to prove what Hamas is providing its up to you to prove your sick claim they are POW's. https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/geneva-convention-relative-treatment-prisoners-war

What nonsense? You know exactly what nonsense claiming they are POW's, link to a credible report that agrees with you. Nobody does. Even if Hamas did it would then by obliged to give them all the rights via the Geneva Convention which they are certainly not getting now.

Actually the source is Israel and COGAT.

Because you are lying, go away

Stop this nonsense, they are hostages that are also probably being sexually abused by terrorists. The ICJ, Security Council and just about every other body in the world involved with this did not say free the Prisoners of War. What a sad attempt at minimizing such a horrific war crime being carried out by Hamas

Why are you asking him if he's Israeli? What difference does that make to you?

A few more facts that the UN or media fail to mention. #Facts And I dare any official UN body to contradict the numbers bellow. In white- number of trucks entering Gaza from Israel at Kerem Shalom. In Blue- number of truckloads picked up by UN for distribution Conclusion: EVERY DAY goods are coming in and NOT being picked up for distribution. They accumulate in UNOPS depot on the Gaza side of Kerem Shalom, tons and tons of good. See photo in following post below. https://twitter.com/IditAbu/status/1773727618392543593

The UN source for imports of trucks and what they contain, food or goods etc can be found published by them here. For food there was a dip when the war first started but its now generally at levels before the war or above. Latest entries Jan 2024 https://www.ochaopt.org/data/crossings

I know someone that does need to wake up and its not me. The United Nations has released a report indicating evidence of rape and sexual abuse during the October 7 Hamas onslaught against southern Israel. The report, presented by Pramila Patten, the UN special representative on sexual violence in conflict, at a press conference in New York, outlines disturbing findings based on extensive evidence-gathering efforts. According to the 24-page report, there is "clear and convincing" information suggesting that sexual violence, including rape, sexualized torture, and other forms of abuse, was committed against hostages held in captivity by Hamas in Gaza. Moreover, there are "reasonable grounds" to believe that such violence is ongoing against those still held captive. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321564-un-finds-evidence-of-rape-on-oct-7-and-after-israel-they-tried-to-downplay-issue/

One of the murdering rapists. “I laid her down, started undressing her…I raped her.” Listen to an Islamic Jihad terrorist admit he raped an Israeli woman during the Oct. 7 massacre. https://twitter.com/IDF/status/1773448212507959389

Read what the experts in urban warfare say: Israel Implemented More Measures to Prevent Civilian Casualties Than Any Other Nation in History | Opinion The reality is that when it comes to avoiding civilian harm, there is no modern comparison to Israel's war against Hamas. Israel is not fighting a battle like Fallujah, Mosul, or Raqqa; it is fighting a war involving synchronous major urban battles. No military in modern history has faced over 30,000 urban defenders in more than seven cities using human shields and hiding in hundreds of miles of underground networks purposely built under civilian sites, while holding hundreds of hostages. Despite the unique challenges Israel faces in its war against Hamas, it has implemented more measures to prevent civilian casualties than any other military in history. https://www.newsweek.com/israel-implemented-more-measures-prevent-civilian-casualties-any-other-nation-history-opinion-1865613

Read the Bible.......🤣 I don't care if you believe me. It's facts.

All I can do is hope that America runs out of bombs to send before they are all dead. Happy to disappoint you, whether Hamas are killed or taken prisoner, from yesterday... Biden administration said to approve transfer of over 2,000 bombs, 25 F-35s to Israel Citing Pentagon and State Department officials, the American daily says the new arms package includes 1,800 MK-84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK-82 500-pound bombs, along with 25 F-35s that were initially approved as part of a larger package by Congress in 2008. Israel requested the third squadron of 25 F-35s last July, which when delivered will bring the total size of the fleet to 75. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/biden-administration-said-to-approve-transfer-of-over-2000-bombs-25-f-35s-to-israel/

Nice, the Hamas police involvement in this was always a no go. Israel said advancing plan for Arab peacekeepers to secure Gaza aid deliveries Israel is pushing for the establishment of an international peacekeeping force to secure the Gaza Strip and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid in it, multiple Hebrew media outlets reported Friday evening, indicating a likely coordinated leak. The reports all said Defense Minister Yoav Gallant had informed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he had made headway on the matter during his visit to Washington this week. The force would be composed of troops from three different unnamed Arab countries — though not Saudi Arabia or Qatar, the latter being a longtime patron of Hamas that is one of the mediators in hostage-for-truce talks. https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-said-advancing-plan-for-arab-peacekeepers-to-secure-gaza-aid-deliveries/

Actually out of that number there were well over 13,000 terrorist's killed and also those Gazans killed from Hamas rockets that land back inside Gaza after misfiring. Then you've also got to factor in that the numbers come from Hamas to begin with and they themselves admit that thousands of the death figures are from other media sources but won't name which ones.

Easy, the ones fighting from tunnels, hospitals, schools and anywhere else there are civilians to use as human shields

There was plenty of raped and mutilated women unfortunately, even the raping of dead bodies, Necrophilia

They've not killed over 30,000 civilians though.

They were kidnapped from Israel and taken hostage into Gaza. Lame Jeff. Lame. 😔

We all prefer peace, tell that to the terrorists frank and while your at it tell them to release some hostages so there can be a ceasefire and they can then show the Gazans they actually care about them by the surge in aid rather than use them as human shields.

No truly in your little bubble.........lol

In your little bubble, ok

Making things up now then. Who are these fanboys who claim Irael have never done anything wrong and all Palastinians are bad?
