Any idea why he would say that?
- dragonwriter 3y agoBecause that kind of language is a distraction from the way that actively supporting Hamas to keep Palestinians divided even despite their terrorism and increasing capacity has long been the Netanyahu (and for even longer, Israeli) policy. Heck, Hamas largely exists because Israel funded the Islamist network that grew into it to weaken the PLO's support among Palestinians decades ago, and supporting Hamas as a counterweight to first the PLO and later the PA has been a long-term policy that periodically blows up in Israel's face, and when it does, it becomes very important to distract from the policy that led up to it.
- pauldenton 3y agoHamas largely exists because Palestinians give them political power. Same way Putin's party exists because the people of Russia give him political power
- tguvot 3y agohe was referring to hamas. not to population of gaza in general. people in israel are somewhat emotional those days. biggest jewish civilian life loss since wwII in one day. if you extrapolate it to us population, it's if 37000 civilians are murdered in 1 day in brutal way. pretty much everbody in israel either lost somebody or knows somebody who did.
- bluish29 3y agoDoes this Make the Isreali military human animals? because in pure numbers they killed much more Palestinians. And much more per capita from Palestine population over the years? All the comments (and down votes) are not responding to my comment in a good faith and ignoring my core message is that it is not about isreal loses this week. The conflict root causes are the injustice. You cannot for example start the events in Ukraine from Ukrainian attacks on kirch bridge and crimea that cause civilians casualties. This will be dishonest and all people will agree on this. But somehow isreal always gets exception and a pass for anything. And someone here described my comment as propaganda although I just described facts. How much Palestinian needs to die for your liking so that you will consider this genocide. How much injustice do you want them to suffer? Cutting food, water supply and prevention of any aid to enter while doing mass bombing is not enough. The US military nuked two cities full of civilians and half of the American still consider that this was a good thing to end a war. The logic ia being used by some people and I am afraid that it will be employed against the Palestinian population. Ignoring all my comment and facts I provided via western sources and the lie spread by biden in plain sight and down voting is just dishonest. It will be always the case that in the western world the life of Palestinians are cheap. The history begins always at the point where isreal wants. You support apartheid state that declare itself as it is. The world is watching all that in silence. The classic video from 2021 describes an interaction in Jerusalem between settler and Palestinian evicted from their home and bonus point a quick interview with him. [1] being blind to all this is something unbelievable. [1] https://youtu.be/_hwJczFoDhc?feature=shared https://youtu.be/_hwJczFoDhc?feature=shared
- tguvot 3y agoI'll suggest you to read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheikh_Jarrah_controversy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheikh_Jarrah_controversy for purpose of general education on this specific and rather mundane real estate conflict that got escalated into this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Israel%E2%80%93Palestine_crisis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Israel%E2%80%93Palestine_... besides this it's not clear what is your message and there are too many different things to respond to. so that's it.
