Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has warned Israel that the Middle East could spiral out of control if it does not stop strikes on Gaza.
He said the US was also “to blame” for providing military support to Israel.
Hours later, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu warned troops his people were in a battle for their lives and said the war against Hamas was “do or die”.
What a disgusting comment.
Frankly, disgusting or not, it’s essentially accurate. Israel is not going to tolerate Hamas and a militarized Gaza continuing to exist, regardless of how many people on the internet post criticisms of it.
Yeah, but on the other hand. This situation can’t stay like this. Something needs to happen even if it’s horrible and disgusting. Imagine a small part of land attached to your country that keeps attacking you and if you fight back your the enemy. That’s not sustainable.
imagine having a country stolen from you and then being placed in a tiny area where you literally can’t escape from or leave without the risk of being killed. Then imagine you’re called a terrorist for attacking the people occupying your stolen land.
Imagine making excuses for terrorists.
It’s not an excuse, but it’s an explanation. What Israel has been doing with the Gaza strip is literally textbook “how to breed terrorists”
Obviously the terror that ensued is horrible and needs to be condemned. But just killing every current Hamas follower and then leaving the situation as is will just create another Hamas in the future.
So if you had been trapped your while life in an open air prison camp. With limited food and water, electricity for just a few hours a day, and being bombed regularly, you would just sit back and accept that that was the way of the world?
Or would you fight back?
I don’t think any of us can say how we would react if we were Palestinian, but my gut feeling is, that having watched women and children killed in bombings for two decades, we would probably say all bets are off and do exactly what Hamas have done
You are literally trying to justify the slaughter of Israeli civilians by Hamas terrorists. Terrorists who use unguided rockets to kill Israelis (and often also Gazans) indiscriminately.
Hamas are not freedom fighters. They are genocidal terrorists who will not stop until they are eliminated or Israel ceases to exist.
It is or was not their land to begin with Hence the land was not stolen.
Before it was occupied by the Ottoman Empire. Then the area was a British protectorate. So when in the time frame of several centuries was there a Palestinian state or nation?
The history is a little bit more complex
