The State of Israel is a fascist, apartheid, settler-colonial, terrorist state.
probably not a good idea to attack them and take hostages then.
Probably a good idea to eliminate them as a state.
Whether it’s a good idea to attack the State of Israel is up to the Palestinians, but they have the right to: https://www.un.org/unispal/document/auto-insert-184801/
Nazis said the same about resistants and did collectives punishments during WW2
When Israel does a genocide: Self defense
When Palestinians fight back: Terrorism
Funny how that works
"The rioters are communist subverters not a resistance group"
-You in April 1943 condemning the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising
The difference between a terrorist group and a resistance movement is whether or not they're US approved. That's it.
IDF killed vastly more people than hamas, and civilian/combatant ratio for idf is worse than for hamas. Thus hamas is more moral force in the conflict.
If 20,000 dead Palestinians were worth the cost for 1,200 dead Israelis in those people's eyes, then fuck them...
Of the 1200 more than half were victims of the IDF.
Indeed...
The thing is, Hamas doesn't actually have much in the way of presence in the West Bank.
All we have is the word of the IDF, because they arrested and disappeared anyone who could argue otherwise. It's not like they've been completely truthful in even the recent past.
Also, we know where Hamas was getting their money. It came in via unmarked suitcases of cash that the IDF allowed through the Gaza checkpoints.
Did you just wander in here without looking?
Why do you think Hamas is doing what it's doing?
Did they just wake up one day and say "let's do terrorism"?
