A more recent poll would show you their support now, which would have been affected a lot by the revenge bombings by Israel. They would now start to regret Oct 7. Before that, however, they were in solid support of Hamas and the Oct 7 attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Carter icp Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 22 minutes ago, rattlesnake said: I did not say Hamas would not exist without Netanyahu, I said it would not exist without the Israeli establishment. Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s, told the New York Times that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who himself referred to Hamas as “a creature of Israel.”). Hamas were supposed to be a reasonable to be able to speak with, rather than the terror groups available at the time, then Hamas turned into a terror group as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Quite a large operation ongoing right now at Shifa hospital "IDF troops are currently conducting a precise operation in the area of Shifa hospital—based on intelligence information indicating the use of the hospital by senior Hamas terrorists to conduct and promote terrorist activity.

Popular Post thaibeachlovers Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 18 hours ago, WDSmart said: What is the point of this story? Is it insinuating that the story about the Israeli terrorists beating and humiliating medics is false? Or is the concern just because the journalists writing the story seem to be pro-Hamas/anti-Israel? And if that's the case, will the BBC also consider it a problem if any of their journalists write stories condemning Hamas but later prove to be pro-Isreal/anti-Hamas? IMO it's all part of israeli propaganda, which tries to negate any story portraying the "heroes" of the IDF in a bad light, by deflecting away from the report about israeli atrocities and crimes, and making it about the reporters instead. Luckily such tactics are not working any more. We know the crimes carried out by the IDF from the reporting from Al Jazeera, which israel is powerless to control, and thank the deity for that, or the reality of IDF cruelty would never be exposed. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a very good question, but I certainly can't answer that until I know how it ends. Does it end with Israel completely wiping out Hamas and taking control of Gaza and all of the West Bank? Does it end with negotiations forced by the UN to develop a two-state solution? Does it end in a manner that is not acceptable to most Palestinians or most Israelis? There are many possibilities for how it ends, but I don't think any of them bodes well for peace in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkk Brian Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Another of the rats lairs destroyed, this one was a large terror tunnel connecting N & S Gaza. IDF says it destroyed part of one of the longest Hamas tunnel networks in north Gaza The IDF recently destroyed what it says is part of one of the longest Hamas tunnel networks in the northern Gaza Strip. Combat engineers of the 162nd Division, along with the elite Yahalom unit, demolished around 2.5 kilometers of the tunnel network, according to the IDF. The IDF says the tunnels connect between various Hamas battalions and brigades in northern and southern Gaza. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/idf-says-it-destroyed-part-of-one-of-the-longest-hamas-tunnel-networks-in-north-gaza/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeranam Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) 2 hours ago, Jeff the Chef said: The question that needs answering is what happens after this war ends? This isn't really a war, it's a slaughter. Gazans, unlike Israel are not given Billions of $ by the USA. https://www.hindustantimes.com/videos/world-news/slaughter-in-rafah-un-breathes-fire-blasts-israel-over-catastrophic-military-operation-plan-101707927103340.html To call it a war implies a semblance of parity, a clash of forces with comparable might. However, the reality starkly contrasts this notion. In Gaza, the toll of death and suffering overwhelmingly burdens one side while the other wields overwhelming military dominance. What unfolds in Gaza is more accurately described as a lopsided confrontation, a cycle of violence where one side suffers immeasurably more than the other.
