No safe place for Palestinians in Gaza as Israel continues genocide

FTFY

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's a genocide.

Hamas still refuses to return hostages and trying to bargain with them doesn't seem like it's been going anywhere.

And Israel doesn't give a fuck about those hostages, IDF forces have flat out murdered a few themselves.

Also, why is Israel bombing the West Bank if they're just fighting Hamas? That's the wrong side of the country, unless the goal is ethnic cleansing.

Just because Hitler gassed the Jews doesn't mean it's genocide

That's what you sound like

Hostage (from Merriam-Webster)

A : a person held by one party in a conflict as a pledge pending the fulfillment of an agreement

B : a person taken by force to secure the taker's demands

No nation helping

No stopping the killings in either case

No religious nonsense to help

It’s only a matter of time until people in Gaza start forming their own fighters and killing innocent people in Israel. It’s only a matter of time until such events happen.

At this point can we really say any Israelis are innocent? This is an outright slaughter and genocide. If you’re not staunchly standing against it, then you’re at least complicit.

What do you think Hamas, PIJ and crew are?

It was a matter of time 50 years ago.

Should probably give up those hostages or their bodies already. The Arab League is starting to push for it, with hope they'll push Hamas out of the strip and the effort to rebuild can start. Ain't nothing good gonna happen as long as Hamas is still in control there. The people deserve leadership that doesn't openly say they dgaf about the people.
