This is intolerable the latest reports I'm hearing they've blockaded the Strip and food is running out (days away) meanwhile airstrikes continue and children are being killed.
There are protests in Jerusalem DAILY by Israeli citizens against these brutal tactics and the war in general.
The Israeli government says it is trying to pressure Hamas to hand over hostages.
President Trump is going to have to intervene or there is going to be a massive crisis especially if the reports are right about them being days away from running out of food. Over 2.3 million Palestinians are affected.
I was talking about “YOU” and Rand paul and others trying to equate Israel with war crimes while failing to do the same with so-called palestinians...
“ Dude listen up, children are being killed, 2.3 million people affected.”
Don’t care. They started this war. What happens now is all on them.

“It is ridiculous to punish an entire population. Also a war crime”
It’s how the US won the Civil War, war with Japan, war with Germany, it’s how we were trying to win in Vietnam. The Cold War didn’t get too hot but we deprived multiple countries of the means to sustain themselves. We maintain the world’s most deadly stockpile of weapons design to inflict mass casualties.
Hamas like any belligerent war mongering genocidal country could not function without the support of its population.
Appealing to authority by crying war crimes is not persuasive. Hamas is a a terrorist group hiding behind children.
so then, you are a hamas supporter? good to know.
Really, RF?
Go look at the Pali programming for little kids. Memri.org.
Go look at it.
Who are you suing on behalf of the citizens of Nagasaki and Hiroshima?
Which American politicians would you like to see hang?
“ In the mean time the general population are caught up. Innocents.”
No one in Gaza is innocent.
Period.

The USA fire bombed Tokyo in 1945 and killed up to 100,000 people in one raid, mostly civilians...Its called WAR for a reason.
Nope. I just said I do not absolve them
“Two wrongs” and all that
Also, punishing civilians does not sit well
Get back to me when they ACTUALLY starve...until then I don’t care.
To be truthful, I won’t care if they really starve either...
I agree...I stopped any caring about palestinians after Munich...
It’s very close according to the news that’s what I was concerned about
But we’ll see in the coming days..
Fair enough. I don’t like it either. But sometimes you are forced to do things you don’t want to do to accomplish the greater good.
May the war be ended by Israel, the sooner the better.
I remember Gazans doing the same thing during 9/11...
All along the people in Gaza have had a choice, and the bulk of them have kept choosing to hate their neighbor and act on that hate. This goes back to long before their Jewish neighbors were any kind of threat. Now they cower behind children as shields and you blame Israel?
There are increasing protests in Gaza against Hamas, and we can hope that this will lead to the population at large turning on them and helping Israel drive them to extermination. Then there can be a real peace, a peace which your approach will prevent.
It is sad, but, these deaths will undoubtedly save many Israelis’ lives in the future.
Yeah right, and Israel's self protection is an act, by the Antilibertarian devil.
why they haven’t handed over the bodies is beyond me. Hand over the bodies and any living hostages and this all ends
Good, I look forward to it...
This is how you WIN a war.,,
