“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.
This one statement should preface every single question and answer regarding this whole horrible terrorist war.
And the parents of those children are allowing Hamas to do it. Screw them. The people there have never lifted a finger to stop any of the terrorism their neighbors and relatives have committed. Why should I feel sorry for people who aren't even willing to help themselves, and police their own country? Gaza is Hamas, and Hamas is Gaza.
