Israel's Iron Dome takes care of the vast majority of Hamas rockets, as almost every report out of Israel can verify.
I know, it's pretty badass to see it live.. My question was about misfired Hamas rockets that fell into Gaza. And how much destruction did that cause.
I'm sure you could look up the statistics somewhere.
Yes, but it's weird that it's completely out of the picture isn't it?
Because it's nothing compared to the destruction wrought by Israel on Gaza. It's not enough to matter and focuses on the wrong things. Of course genocide apologists would love to focus on anything but the genocide.
It's a war mate, Israel doesn't have to do anything to protect "Gazans" and yet they do out of their ways to do so. Please get informed on this.. there are few IDF people or ex-Hamas guys who can tell you how war goes. It's ugly, but 15k killed with 0 Hamas seems like a set up no? Regardless, it's not my fight. I'm gonna go now and rest.. but please keep your mind open and don't fill your heart with hatred.
Peace
You're justifying thousands of deaths, including mostly children. It's not a war, it's a slaughter against a mostly civilian populace to justify taking out a terrorist group they propped up themselves and continue to inflame with policies like kicking them out of their homes, the blockade, restricting their aid and food and trade, controlling their air and water space, controlling their trash, electricity, and now they've been trying to control oil found on their land.
May I suggest you don't fill your heart with hatred and learn to have some empathy for civilians that look different than you or speak different than you?
Yup, I hope you do the same. Peace
