   Well just for one instance :

Israel are not taking hostages , so no, Hamas are not the same as the IDF

They've just been seizing Palestinian land for decades.

I haven't counted before the 7/10, but as you brought it up:

It was over fifty years ago that Israel occupied the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, part of which it annexed to Jerusalem. To this day, it continues to control these areas and the people living there. For over half a century, Israel has created a reality of dispossession, oppression and human rights abuses in Gaza and the West Bank.

   48 % of Palestinians living in East Jerusalem have said their would prefer to be Israeli citizens and 42 % stated that they would prefer to be citizens of any new Palestine state

Professor Asa Kasher, who helped draft the IDF's code of conduct, condemned the sharing of images depicting half-naked detainees, stating that it goes against the IDF's ethical standards. Human rights lawyer Michael Mansfield suggested that the footage should be reviewed by a UN court.

Sooooo, posting the images violates the IDF code of conduct, but nothing to say about the atrocities being done to Palestinians.

There is no excuse for israel's collective punishment which is a crime against humanity.

Does your vehement hatred of Israel extend to Egypt because of their closed border with Gaza, it would appear not. 🥴

I can't believe that guy is still defending Zionism.

 

Even Amnesty are cataloguing the crimes by Israel

Yes I have, It's not my fault your memory is poor. 

Israel is behaving just like Hamas, wanton killing of innocent civilians.

Both sides are murderous butchers.

 

What you do is what many of your ilk go for: a short one liner bit 'condemning' Hamas, then going on about Israel. Often comes with some false equivalency disregarding facts or even immediate context.

That's not what the topic is about.

And as this is focused on the Gaza Strip, not even directly relevant.

Try harder.

Well, you're not too concerned with atrocities committed by Hamas, so why whine?

They've also been arresting hundreds of West Bank Palestinians and holding them without charge. IMO a vile regime that uses force to subdue an illegally occupied population.

How Israel jails hundreds of Palestinians without charge

 

@thaibeachlovers

 

And this topic ain't about that.

You people seem to have real issues addressing the OP.

One would have thought there's enough bashing material in it as it were.

@thaibeachlovers

 

The blockade was put in place due to Hamas's agenda and actions. It was not always there. You want to insist on not linking the two, that's up to you.

You say 'no excuse', there were even UN views that it's legit.

Also, not a word about this being upheld by Egypt as well.

 

This was done over so many times, it's impossible that you're not aware of details.

After reading your antisemitic posts nobody in their right mind would chose sick perverted murderous beasts like Hamas over a democratic educated country like Israel, you chose to believe these sickos, well that is down to you but count me out. 

 

It is not antisemitic to criticize Israel. Israel does not represent all Jews in the world.

Your post is right, but so is the OP, lets get back on topic - Israeli soldiers committing war crimes.

 

At the end of the day, no one can deny that Israel is in breach of over 20 international laws. It willfully ignores the international community and the International court of Justice and has been occupying Palestinian lands for over 56 years. Until Israel starts to follow the law, they cannot complain when they are being attacked by the people they are oppressing.

It actually had to do with the comment I replied to, unlike your nonsense trolling post above.

And, of course, I neither offered defense of anything, not is what you claim true.

 

Try harder, little troll.

It did not, you are lying/baiting. You are unbelievable, you can't answer questions so post stuff totally not related to what was written. Get a life. Like all trolls, you just want people to reply to yoursilly posts.

Not quite. They hate Israelis. I wonder why they hate their prison guards? I wonder why they hate the people who occupy their territory, snatch them out of their beds at night, detain them indefinitely, steal their land and force them from their homes... These are just from the last few years.

 

I'm sure you'd hate the people if they did that to you. They are perfectly entitled to hate their tormentors.

 

It is also true that Israelis hate Palestinians: https://www.timesofisrael.com/poll-shows-large-swaths-of-israeli-youth-hate-arabs-back-revoking-citizenship/

I don't hate Germans or Japanese.........😉

I'm glad to hear that! It would be a bit strange if you did, because you were not directly affected by these events.

 

Is it not sad that we are talking about who hates each other more? It is pathetic tbh. Israel must start to live up to it's 'democratic, law abiding' status. It is willfully breaking over 26 international laws, is committing war crimes in real time - we can all watch them on social media and the news. We know that the West Bank and other Palestinian lands are under occupation and they live under the control of Israelis. This is just insane! We know this is wrong, the world courts have judged that what Israel has been doing over 5 decades is wrong. Yet still, we blame Hamas.

The poster in question has a history of making openly antisemitic comments. Up and including an assertion that Judaism is a 'murderous religion'.

So basically, you're calling for others to return to the topic, then go right ahead and spew off-topic commentary.

And justifying Hamas at the same time.

Great.

Anything on topic? Or just the usual Israel Bad stuff?

Noticeably, no expectations of the Palestinians, whatsoever.

Why is it so difficult for some people to acknowledge that what Hamas does was wrong and what Israel does is also wrong.

The big differences are that Israel is doing it on a much bigger scale for months and with the money and support from the USA.

So you don't know the difference between a sadistic terrorist attack, one of the largest in modern history and the atrocities carried out with intent within that attack and Israels response?
