Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.

Let’s pray for hamas immediate surrender and release of the hostages. EDIT: looks like the tankies are backing hamas.

Let's hope Hamas releases the hostages and the state with one of the strongest military in the world backed by the most powerful nation in the world stop bombing kids that they have crammed into a tiny strip of land, and start working only actually solving the root of problem. Hamas' greatest recruiter and radicaliser is Israel. The only side with the power to stop these atrocities from continuing for decades to come is Israel.

They are not bombing kids. they are bombing terrorists.

EDIT: TinyPizza, I am not affected by hamas propaganda so I'm not confused, I don't need to reorient to align with hamas.

Sir. You might be lost. Could you please look at the title of the post and reorient yourself to your surroundings.

What a trash can of a heart you must have to call literal children for terrorists just because they were born on the wrong side of a border.

It's possible to be against Hamas' terrorist attacks and still have sympathy with the innocent civilians in Palestine you know?

[–] 5BC2E7 -2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don’t conflate having sympathy with accusing israel of bombing children. They didn’t consider the children as targets they were collateral damage. But I can see how you feel they actually aimed for the children.

They didn’t consider the children as targets they were collateral damage.

As if the Israel military aren't aware and don't care about the "collateral" damage. One atrocity doesn't excuse another.

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure thing, that doesn't justify bombing civilians

[–] 5BC2E7 -5 points 1 year ago

I'm sure that Israel wants to hear about the viable alternatives no one is able to come up with so far. Let's hear it.
