Maybe not that stupid if you agree with the theory as I do that their entire plan was to bait Israel into a very aggressive response to win a global propaganda victory.

OK, here's your chance. Did the events prior to october 7th cause Hamas to conduct a terrorist attack on that date? I have not seen you answer that question directly with a clear answer.

Link?

 

Can you also check the lawful killing of civilians under Rule 14 IHL

provide a link. I am not clairvoyant.

It is a war. You don't call it a war because you hate Israel, you don't think it should have ever existed, and you don't support its right to exist and defend itself. There is no rule of war that one side must be equal to the other in power and suffer the same casualties. Hamas started this war on October 7 -- FACT. 

Cut with the capitals. Your fact is not everyone's facts. You pretend there is n o relevance of events prior to october 7 and refuse to answer any questions about your stance in this regard.

   The point was that Kyle went to defend a car lot , rather than going to look for trouble .

Whose car lot is was and his relationship with the owner is beside  the point 

The point was that you lied about it and failed to provide a link

It is not a war crime to go after military targets.

It is a war crime to kill human shields under any circumstances.

If they need to go after the terrorists which they do as a war goal in response to October 7, how is it possible to avoid human shields? 

Human shields or not, it's a war crime to kill them. And yes, it's a war crime to use them. The problem here is the pretence that most or all of the civilians killed were being used as human shields.

They could even use some of their 100's of kilometers tunnels to protect their own civilians but Hamas said its not there job to protect their own civilians. Yes they much rather use the as human shields

Makes sense. Why would Hamas want to protect their own civilians who presumably included their own families?

   He went to stop a friends car lot from being attacked and destroyed

(You don't have to be rude, just because someone disagrees with you ) 

Please stick to the truth. Rittenhouse was not a friend of the car lot owners and they never asked him to protect their lot.

But IDF numbers are totally legit.

Oh that will explain all the Gazan children dying then. Silly me I thought it was the huge megatonnages of bombs dropped on the most densely populated enclave on earth. Thanks for the education Brian. Much appreciated.

Apparently up to 40% of the Hamas militants are women and children.

No, to terrorize children and families. This is what the IDF is now.... 

What an appalling comment!. No wonder I have him on ignore.

Did you see the video of Israeli kids singing on Israeli state TV about Gaza? 

 

As a kid I cheered on Israeli in the 1967 war. Why focus on what kids do? We played cowboys and indians when I was a kid. The cowboys were always the heroes. I read war comics which were appallingly racist propaganda.

I expect him to discuss with me if he wants, not you, I have nothing to discuss with you

Yawn, it's a public forum. If you have nothing to discuss with me then why this post? I'd be more than happy if you didn't respond to my posts.

Just now, Bkk Brian said:

There is racism in every country in the world, why just pick on Israel, its nothing to do with this war anyway.

His claim was contested, what did you expect?

"Appalling injuries, particularly in women and children". "Left on the floor to die".

"The end game of the Israeli government is to force them out completely from Gaza".

Just now, Neeranam said:

Is there a reason they are targeting schools?

Only the obvious desire to make Gaza uninhabitable for Gazans. Israeli officials are on record (in the ICJ) as saying that Gaza belongs to Israel.

Netanyahu announces a new seizure of 2,000 acres of West Bank land as Blinken arrives, mitrroring his actions when Obama visited him.

United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories Francesca Albanese shared that the crimes committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip since 7 October could preoccupy the International Criminal Court (ICC) for the next 50 years.

This came in a post on her X account on Friday, in which Albanese published a video showing the Israeli army killing four Palestinian civilians in the city of Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip, using an armed drone.

The video shows the killing of 4 civilians including that of an injured man. A clear war crime.

You made a claim, stop the deflection:

 

"Even a third would still be a war crime."

 

Do you have a link to that?

It's my opinion. Would 35% not be a war crime?

Just now, Bkk Brian said:

No that's the forum rules:

 

"Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source."

 

I commented on YOUR claim and link!

Over 76% of Gaza’s schools are damaged or destroyed. (January)
