From the article:
Holy shit, Wolf is getting trolled on just as hard as us, but on live TV... I hate the future.
And then they throw a bomb in the south.
The US fucked up hard on its killing of civilians, but MODT of the time it was at least a result of supporting direct ground combat where friendly forces were engaged. At least that was true from weeks after the initial invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Israel is tossing bombs at targets, using the most advanced aircraft in the world… and their ground forces are not within 10 miles of the site.
That’s what makes this inexcusable. They had time. They didn’t have ground forces under threat. Every vehicle isn’t an IED waiting to happen yet. They have the time to check for authorization before letting a JDAM off the rails.
The right to defend has to come with purse string implications if they use it as right to kill without mercy. They do this, we cut funding. They do it more, in clearly not accidental strikes, we impose sanctions. The purse will hurt enough due to their reliance on western arms, that they change lest they not be able to drop bombs at all.
It’s one thing to have a legit terror target and mistake the building or some freak accident. It’s another to drop a bomb on a refugee camp and then simply shrug.
The video of the car being shot by the tank is a clear example of their actions. If anyone hasn't seen it, there was a tank parked on a road sort of hidden from sight, in a 'safe area' in central Gaza, outside of the evacuation zone. A car didn't see it at first, noticed and turned around still a bit away from the tank, as it begins to drive away the tank fires on them and kills them. If you look at the strikes going on now this is what it is, it isn't a 'Hamas rocket position' or other BS, there hasn't been a shred of verifiable evidence for any target that it was a legitimate military target.
"refugee camp" is the name of several cities in Gaza. This was a city of 50k people pre-evac. It's not a bunch of tents.
You asked why it matters and it matters because this statement is 100% incorrect.
It is not a current refugee camp. It is in the North, where they told people to evacuate from. It is not a "collection of civilians gathering"
This sort of misunderstanding let's people bring this up as if Israel is currently bombing refugees, which is a significant lie.
Looks like that concept paper was true.
Yeah :(
“Look Wolf, we’ve experienced a genocide, leave this to the professionals, okay?”
It's fascinating. Every war has collateral damage and Hamas deliberately hides behind civilians- a war crime- and Israel gives them opportunity to leave
And hamas deliberately targets civilians and you say nothing
What are some of your own quotes on Israel targeting civilians? I assume they're intended to absolve Israel of all responsibility?
but this is the now. the present. well, technically it's the past. but tomorrow is a brand new day!
