There are no civilian casualties in the war against Hamas. They ALL support the final solution.

Sadly one cannot have zero civilian casualties in a war. This is the horror of it.

Hey Brandon Handlers: GFYS. The fighters are all Israelis, but the threat is against you, too. So yank your purse strings later, when the dust settles and an objective accounting can be had. Zero civilian casualties has never been accomplished in any war, ever. It’s why we have to finish a war fast, before d!ck-heads like you can stick your nose in, trying to set the rules from your clueless little bubble world.

Can you imagine if this was 1940s during WW2? “WAAAH! You’re killing too many Germans!”

Kirby must think that members of Hamas wear T-shirts with big red targets on them, and “civilians” wear T-shirts that read “CIVILIAN” in big bold letters. There is no such distinction in this battle, nor is it possible. There are no true civilians in Gaza, only Hamas terrorists yet to be identified as such, or members of the Hamas support network. Anyone not actively involved in Hamas, or indirectly involved by supporting them, has either fled or is dead. There are no anti-Hamas dissidents, just an entire population, every member of which is located somewhere on the spectrum of Islamic terrorism. They’re all responsible for October 7th, and every attack that has occurred prior to that.

Don’t ever forget that this is a population who gleefully strapped bombs to their own children and sent them into Israel to kill as many innocent Israeli civilians (true civilians) as possible. And once “successful” in their murderous mission, they would celebrate in the streets and hand out candy. Every last so-called “Palestinian” is guilty and deserving of Israel’s wrath. Let them receive what they deserve.

Zero civilian casualties is the standard that Biden pushes in the ukraine for ukrainian forces, right? And in Afghanistan.

If that’s the standard, then the enemy will absolutely use human shields. It’s entirely unrealistic in war.

Not near as many casualties as in America’s war on drugs. I suspect many politicians are getting paid to turn their heads.

“…too many civilian casualties….”
—————-
Starting with the 1,200 dead Israelis, thousands of wounded Israelis and the kidnapping, torture and/or murder of about 250 more Israelis on October 7.

PHUCK Joe Biden, PHUCK Barack Obama and PHUCK everyone else who formulated or who supports this one-sided and antisemitic statement!

I mean, yeah....in a war zero civilian casualties is perfect.

Of course, I can’t think of a single war where there wasn’t at least some civilian casualties.

That’s why they say “War Is Hell.”

Many thousands...

Hamas doesn’t really differentiate, other than the occasional claim that x number of ‘women and children” have been killed, between Hamas fighters and civilians.
Do they define “children”? No. And remember, the Iranians were famous for sending waves of child “martyrs” against the Iraqi army in the Iran-Iraq war. While Hamas seems a bit smarter than that, IMO it’s 100% that Hamas would use 15 y/o’s as decoys at the very least, and quite likely as fighters too.

In any event, if we assume Hamas claims of total casualties and Israel’s claims of Hamas taken out are both fairly accurate (or at least both equally generous), the ratio of civilian Gazans to Hamas killed is exceptionally low, especially given the environment.

IMO, perhaps Israel should have stated before they began their invasion, “We know that Hamas intends to make sure 3 or 4 Gazan civilians get killed for every one of their fighters killed. You can do the math. We will do our best to minimize this number, but please do not forget who and what we are up against.”

As the real ratio is under 1.5, then Israel can, when questioned about civilian casualties, refer to that vs. their original statement.

Correct. The idea of those Articles is to make use of civilians a major disadvantage, not an advantage, as the terrorists so often and so despicably do.

Ham Ass should don a uniform and move away from civilian areas. Stand up and dare the IDF to do something about it.
