I don't mind what word is used so long as they are finished in Gaza. Without that there can never be peace. steven is just being argumentative over the use of one word.

Playing with words, the goal is to dismantle it, its fighters, leaders and infrastructure from Gaza so it no longer has control there. ISIS was dismantled, it can be done.

A reminder of how Israel is fighting with its hands tied behind its back. John Spencer, world's leading expert on urban warfare: “There have been false statements, like the use of the term ‘most destructive war of the modern era,’ when it compares maybe a battle against one city in combination to all the cities in Gaza. There’s no military in the world that has faced the challenge Israel is facing right now in the war against Hamas. An entire underground war, where the enemy is using the civilian population as its strategy — to try to get the other side to stop moving forward, for their military strategic objective. No military has faced a military that is shooting at civilians behind them, in the midst of the operation. Because, of the 13,000 Hamas rockets, 100% of those have been dumb: they do not have precision-guided munition. Nobody’s talking about that statistic.”

No Paywall link https://archive.ph/5541n "Just after Christmas, however, Iran committed the classic “Washington gaffe” – i.e., telling the truth accidentally – when the Revolutionary Guard Corps reportedly described Hamas’s barbaric assault as “one of the acts of revenge for the assassination of General [Qassem] Soleimani by the US and the Zionists”. Hamas immediately denied the linkage, no more credibly than the Revolutionary Guard Corps’ subsequent effort to walk back its revealing “revenge” declaration."

Sounds like a feeble attempt at gloating. Perhaps you should remind yourself of the 4th post in this topic from the one and only you on the 25th Feb 2022 and 334 pages later your contributions remain just as rubbish. "I'll switch on Al Jazeera for an update. I doubt this thread will survive long"

Indeed, you may also want to read the latest report by UN Watch for more disturbing issues with the UN. The link to the full report is in the article. UNRWA: OBSTACLE TO PEACE UN Schools use Western taxpayers’ money to teach Palestinian children to hate Jews Report: U.N. Teachers Celebrated Hamas Massacre As war wages on between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, UN Watch has released a new report that reveals how UNRWA teachers in the enclave, funded largely by the U.S. and EU, indoctrinate Palestinian children and promote terrorism and antisemitism. Entitled “UNRWA: Hate Starts Here,” the report uncovers 20 UNRWA teachers and other staff members who celebrated the October 7th Hamas massacre of Israeli civilians on their social media accounts. The new cases are in addition to 133 UNRWA educators and staff who were exposed for promoting hate and violence in UN Watch’s last report, released in March 2023. https://unwatch.org/unrwa-obstacle-to-peace/

Another hostage reveals some of her ordeals while being held captive. The full interview will be released later tonight by Israeli TV’s Channel 12. Some snippets bearing in mind this is her experience only of the people she met. "Regarding people living in Gaza, who they really are, everyone there were terrorists, entire families are in the services of Hamas. I realized I was being held captive by a family, why am I being held by a faimliy, why are there children here? Why are there women here? Can't post the whole video as against forum rules, its in Israeli with English subs. Twitter link Released hostage Mia Schem says she was held in Gaza hospital, operated on without painkillers In a preview clip of an interview scheduled to air on TV’s Channel 12 this evening, Schem, 21, says after she arrived in Gaza, she spent three days lying in a room in a hospital before they moved her to an operating room, where she underwent a procedure with no anesthetic or painkillers. “I saw the surgeon, I didn’t see his face,” she says. “He looked at me and said ‘You’re not going to go home alive.'” https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/released-hostage-mia-schem-says-she-was-held-in-gaza-hospital-operated-on-without-painkillers/

Right there is the very reason the IDF has called for the evacuations and is going there to clear out those terrorists and infrastructure that are hiding in amongst the civilians at the camps. Also contained in the linked article: "Residents told Reuters that the heavy fighting continued on Thursday, with Israeli tanks advancing on the densely populated Bureij camp from the north and east. Hamas posted a video showing what it said was its fighters targeting Israeli soldiers and vehicles."

Oh look, no wonder you missed out the other "incidents" don't fit your bais narrative do they: 5 to 7 August 2022. Hams fired approximately 1,100 rockets towards Israel. Directly at civilians indiscriminately. But you keep going off topic, this is about the Hamas Israel war starting 7th Oct.

'UN agencies that are funneling civilians into Hamas strongholds are culpable in the loss of life that could've been avoided', says Israeli govt spokesperson Eylon Levy when questioned about an airstrike that killed dozens at a refugee camp in Gaza.

Not only that, it also appears people have forgot how easy it is to stop this: https://twitter.com/EylonALevy/status/1740496703885832303

Read my post again and tell me where I made any claims on justification or not? Then stop the pointless bickering. Its been pointed out by mods once already

Yes and will continue to do so to call out your false claims

From mass murder to rape, torture, mutilation, using human shields and taking of hostages, the #Hamas terror group violated every conceivable international law, including War Crimes, Attempted Genocide & Crimes Against Humanity. https://twitter.com/Ostrov_A/status/1740353991471513899

It's a pathetic lie how some say this war started on Oct 7. Its really not, its the truth............ The war against Hamas started 7th Oct.

yea right.....lol

Ask Hamas, Hamas officials admit its strategy is to use Palestinian civilians as human shields An interviewer recently posed a logical question to Mousa Abu Marzouk, a senior member of the Hamas politburo: “Since you have built 500 kilometers of tunnels, why haven’t you built bomb shelters where civilians can hide during bombardments?” Abu Marzouk said the tunnels are “meant to protect us” from Israeli aircraft and facilitate attacks on Israeli targets. “Us” meaning Hamas. Not civilians. Hamas chooses not to build bomb shelters in Gaza because that would undercut its ability to use the population as human shields. https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2023/11/01/hamas-officials-admit-its-strategy-is-to-use-palestinian-civilians-as-human-shields/

Just published. Undeniable evidence and multiple verified accounts of Hamas brutal rape on October 7th. Most of this is far to graphic to post here. Horrific and a difficult read. Hamas deliberately used rape and sexual mutilation as a tactic of war. It’s so much worse than you think. Relying on video footage, photographs, GPS data from mobile phones and interviews with more than 150 people, including witnesses, medical personnel, soldiers and rape counselors, The Times identified at least seven locations where Israeli women and girls appear to have been sexually assaulted or mutilated. The Times viewed photographs of one woman’s corpse that emergency responders discovered in the rubble of a besieged kibbutz with dozens of nails driven into her thighs and groin. https://archive.ph/7tF0P https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/28/world/middleeast/oct-7-attacks-hamas-israel-sexual-violence.html Tamed down version here: NYT report details weaponization of sexual violence during Oct. 7 terror onslaught The two-month investigation included interviews with more than 150 witnesses, medical personnel, soldiers, rape counselors and government officials along with the scanning of video footage, photographs and GPS data from cell phones. NYT says it identified at least seven locations where Israeli women and girls were apparently sexually abused or mutilated and those the paper interviewed described finding the bodies of more than 30 women around the Re’im rave site. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/nyt-report-details-weaponization-of-sexual-violence-during-oct-7-terror-onslaught/

That's an opinion piece by HRC, the actual UN have made a ruling its legal but of course you would not like to know that. The United Nations itself, in the Secretary-General’s Panel of Inquiry report of 2011 concerning the Mavi Marmara incident from the previous year, found that Israel’s Gaza blockade is legal under international law. “Israel faces a real threat to its security from militant groups in Gaza,” determined the UN inquiry, headed by Sir Geoffrey Palmer, the former Prime Minister of New Zealand. https://unwatch.org/item-7/claim/claim-6-israels-blockade-of-gaza-is-illegal

For clarity and for those who find this a little difficult to come to terms with: #hamashavenorights #freegaza "Hamas is endlessly evil. The terror group released a propaganda video that said:" “To the families of the captives, your suffering has not yet begun” https://twitter.com/AvivaKlompas/status/1740226663257125272

What happens when you build terror tunnels in residential areas, under hospitals and schools to use as human shields. IDF shows footage of 'demolition of tunnel route' near hospital in Gaza. The Israeli military says it is 'uncovering Hamas’ tunnels inside and around multiple hospitals within Gaza.'

You now have the added evidence to show where I admitted to not reading links. I suggest you start to actually read what other people write.

Yes confirmed:

The tunnels prove it without doubt

So now all you've got to do is provide evidence of the war crimes from that video you linked to rather than again spewing out unsubstantiated claims.
