Israel said the area would be safe, unless they lied and wanted women and children to gather in such an area so they could bomb them easily. I mean, not the first time Israel did something like that, and looking at their war crimes record, pretty much on par.
What exactly is the benefit for Israel to kill civilians and why are they so incredibly bad at it, if they are really doing it on purpose as you suggest?
Land ... The whole premise of Israel was 'Land without people for people without land.' But the problem was and always has been that it wasn't a land without people. There were and still are people living here, and the systemic extinction of these people either by killing them or driving them out is the process that has been going on for decades. That's it, but you think they are bad at it, but I say they are very good at it, cuz the number of Palestinian deaths say otherwise. Of course, being mostly Europeans, they want Palestinian to move leaving the land behind instead of having to kill them, but they won't. So every few years Hamas is activated to create a justification to clear out more land. Take a look at the maps from the 1950s till now, and it will become perfectly clear. The Palestinian land is being reduced year after year. That is an undeniable fact.
If what you say is true, why are the numbers of the Palestinian population rising since decades? Wouldn’t a systematic extinction mean, that that population numbers are falling?
So you say that Iran AND Qatar AND Israel have conspired to create this Hamas terrorist attack? I would say this is rather a hot take…
This is completely true - Israel has always annexed land after it won a war. Their settlements on Palestinian lands in the West Bank have to get removed though.
Yeah Iran, Qatar and Israel are at the same level of committing human atrocities, so I wouldn't get this past them. The existence of Hamas has only been beneficial for Israel, and this isn't a hot take.
I would look at the end result. How great is it for Israel that Hamas does some shit and gathers some justification for Israel for more cleaning out Palestinian population and annexing more land, not that Israel needs any justification to do that, but it provides a good cover for naive western audiences.
