Again, a video of a man who is defending his home from invading IDF and is about to be killed, or a woman who has been taken hostage is not "hilarious." They are despicable.  

This was not a woman being taken hostage but it may well have been one of the terrorists that took a woman hostage or murdered one of them. Who are despicable?

"May well have been"? Is that sufficient for you? I think every able bodied male over 16 may well be a member of Hamas in Gaza. Is that not always the case in war?

- The Hamas terrorists that took hostages are despicable.
- The IDF soldiers who are invading Gaza and killing Palestinians are despicable.
- The man in the video was not committing terrorist acts, was in what looks like his own home in Gaza, and appeared to be preparing to defend it from the invading IDF. He is not despicable.
- The IDF, who then stormed what appeared to be an apartment complex, firing at everything along the way, and presumably killed the man shown earlier in the video, are despicable.

But my actual charge was that the video was despicable, and so are any who think it is "hilarious."

Not what I said. That every male over 16 is armed in Gaza is no surprise. You made a baseless allegation that they "may well have been" accused of war crimes.

He was in Gaza, in his homeland. He was not committing horrific acts in Israel, and there is no way for the IDF to know if he did, at least if they killed him as described. 

Can't you see that videos like this of someone about to be killed are just like the videos of the people killed and hostages taken on Oct 7?  You thought those were horrible. Why, then, would you think one like this is "hilarious"?

Stop being dramatic and start thinking logically. The terrorist that was killed was part of the group that wishes to remove the Israelis from their land. In war when you are fighting the enemy they are to be eliminated, it is either you or them.

You take the killing of terrorists very seriously but innocent Israelis not so much. 

Who has said that I think this is hilarious, not me, oh that's correct, something else you have made up to spice up your posts, it was not hilarious, it was necessary!

Move the goal posts then, who you consider despicable is not my concern. Hamas are terrorists, who are despicable that is a fact.

The entire Gazan administration are Hamas. So that makes them all terrorists? That's no more the case than all IDF soldiers are war criminals.

One persons hiding in a building is another person's waiting to ambush.

You made an unequivocal claim that all Hamas are terrorists and now walking that back with your qualification of "military wing". Then you complained about moving the goal posts.

It would. I believe nothing emanating from either side of the conflict. I accept only independent press accounts and then only with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Terrorists are people who have committed terrorism.

 

The vast bulk of Hamas are defending their country just as the vast bulk of IDF soldiers are doing the same.

I may be at times dramatic, but I am thinking logically - and, more importantly, fairly.

There is no evidence that the man in the video is or was a terrorist. And there's no evidence that the man in the video wants to remove the Israelis from their land. It is only obvious that he wants to protect his home and homeland, and I believe he wants to remove Israelis from it. 

I take the killing of anyone very seriously, but I understand how the killing of terrorists and those who invade your country can be justified. I do take the killing of innocent Israelis seriously, and also the killing of innocent Palestinians, which you seem not to.

Bkk Brian posted the video and described it as "hilarious."

The whole Hamas military wing is delegated a terror organization. You are a terrorist belonging to them.

That's not universally true. Ask Amnesty International for a start. I stand by by assertion that terrorists are only people credibly accused (at least) of having committed or planning a terrorist act. Proof is required.

Who cares, this is about terrorists trying to ambush the IDF, I'm finished entertaining your deflection

You have made a fool of yourself again by repeatedly accusing me of saying things I haven't, I would appreciate it if you could be a little less duplicitous, it ruins the debate when you make stories up.

I said, then, that it was Bkk Brian who posted the video and called it "hilarious." You agreed with almost everything he then said. That was the gist of my remark. What ruins the debate (I'd call it an "argument") is when you get offended at something I've said that is a bit misdirected. Just call me out on it and be done with it. I guarantee I will never accuse you of something you said if I know you didn't. You say enough things of which I disagree that I don't have to make any up,
