> Settlers are protected by the police AND the army when they commit the crimes Again. I won't defend those a*holes. They put soldiers in a problematic spot lots of times. Some soldiers make the mistake of enabling them and yes that's due to bad policy. I'm 100% for a Palestinian state and clearing the occupied territories. But... Gaza doesn't have settlers anymore. Look what happened there... Furthermore, Israel tried to remove settlements and sign a long term peace accord. The Hamas is the group that blew that up. If you're against the settlements and for peace then the first stop needs to be with ending the Hamas. Otherwise, any agreement would be sabotaged again. > they are all equally bad Chopping off the hand of an 8 year old girl isn't on the same scale: https://x.com/EylonALevy/status/1719667140209316316?s=20 https://x.com/EylonALevy/status/1719667140209316316?s=20 This is just one small bit. But the Hamas is on a completely different scale here. As I said, in normal cases and when it comes to the west bank I'm 100% with you on the "Israel is bad" bandwagon. But the situation in Gaza is very different and separate. > I can go list hundreds of cases, even thousands, media and videos and more, that will need a whole encyclopedia to lost them all, but I will leave this video only if you are looking for the truth You know who listed these cases? Israeli's did. Including soldiers see: https://www.btselem.org/ https://www.btselem.org/ https://www.ahimlaneshek.org/ https://www.ahimlaneshek.org/ These are Israeli driven organizations that are working hard to get the truth out there within and without of Israel. Unfortunately, killing civilians in such a brutal attack sets back all of these efforts. A few years ago I was having a talk with a friend who lives in a city that gets a lot of missiles. He was talking in a very militant tone about the trauma and panic his kids are suffering as a result of the missiles. He said he doesn't care about a single Palestinian life because of the fear in his kids. When I talked to him about the Palestinian people and the fathers on the other side who obviously have it worse he calmed himself down and agreed with that viewpoint. Unfortunately, this is a hard discussion to have under fire with bad leadership and at mass scale. In peaceful times the majority of both Israelis and Palestinians are for a two state solution. Israel even offered that to the Palestinian authority on more than one occasion. This was sabotaged by extremists. To be fair, there are extremists on both sides to varying degrees. But of all these extremists the Hamas has been consistently the worse. It has complete disregard to Palestinian lives and uses them as human shields https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8YYmrgAeqw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8YYmrgAeqw It has specifically stated that it is interested in repeating October 7th: https://www.ynetnews.com/article/r1y31101m6 https://www.ynetnews.com/article/r1y31101m6 They are stealing humanitarian aid: https://www.ynetnews.com/article/hjhcwfl7p https://www.ynetnews.com/article/hjhcwfl7p Yes, I know the last two are Israeli sources but notice that there are recordings... If you are pro-Palestinian and pro-peace then the Hamas is the biggest roadblock in that direction. The second roadblock is Benjamin Netanyahu who I hope would end up in prison. But the Hamas is still well ahead as we wouldn't have Netanyahu in power without their constant attacks.
