"noooo these children voted for Hamas they deserve every bit of suffering they get"

Fucking assholes.

These children can’t have voted for hamas. The last election in Palestine was in 2006.

Well I'm sure they would if we would let them not starve until the next one. Ben and his psychotic entourage, probably.

They will see all of this and serve as warriors in the next generation of hatred. Just like the other side too.

[–] snek 1 points 1 year ago

And I wonder how many of those who voted for them in 2006 are still alive...

Crazy how people acc think like this

Children didn't vote for the Nazis in the 1930s either but they still died when we bombed German cities. Children die in wars, it's an unfortunate fact, and Hamas just declared war on their neighbours.

Israeli children die: "bomb all of Gaza, kill as many kids as needed until Hamas is over"

Palestinian children die: "it's just war, mate, what can I say? War sucks :("

Screw this crap.

There's a huge difference between an official declaration of war and warning civilians and sneaking in in early morning and killing them in their beds isn't there?

[–] snek 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm sorry but from where I am looking, whenever a civilian is killed, it's a tragedy.

And that includes Israel as much as Hamas.

Unfortunately we don't live in an ideal world and we have to weigh things up sometimes that aren't pleasent.

So Israel can win because it's stronger. In a nutshell.
