> Putin absolutely 100% does not do that kind of bombing in Ukraine. Even contested cities do not look 1/10th as bad ad Gaza. Yes they do, contested Ukrainian cities are literally reduced to rubble, cease to exist: https://x.com/nexta_tv/status/1632070651170410496 https://x.com/nexta_tv/status/1632070651170410496 Ukrainian forces abandon these cities in the East one by one as Russians completely flatten them with artillery and massive glide bombs, leaving no place to shelter. They're just open wastelands by the end of it, as if a nuclear bomb had gone off.

Not really replying to the above comment, but Do we think Putin should have bombed Gaza? Atleast there would have been sanctions against the bombing entity. Their athletes could have been banned, unlike the ITF people who goes to Olympics after committing crimes against humanity in Gaza. The double standards are not just bad, they are literally evil, I must say.

  The current war began with a surprise attack that included airlanding into a music festival, murdering as many as they could and kidnapping people like Shani Louk, a 22-year-old tattoo artist, who were brought into Gaza from the festival, tortured and murdered. She was last recorded on a pickup truck, lifeless, legs visibly broken, as local men spit on her and record that with their phones. A still from the video: https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1ibyhP.img?w=768&h=576&m=6 https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1i... I don't think scenes like these did any favors to the people of Gaza when it comes to international sympathy. Such behavior doesn't leave many options either. I have little doubt most countries would've responded the same way as Israel did.

    The most amazing part is, people on here argue that Palestinians have "right to defend themselves", killing Shani isn't defending anything, in fact what would it have achieved? They knew exactly what they were doing, and they knew the response would be harsh, but they did it anyway because Hamas doesn't care about anyone.

    I can think of multiple specific instances where the Israeli military killed children in Gaza, which are confirmed by humanitarian organizations on the ground as well as video/photographic evidence. But I will not name these specific victims here, because that would not prove anything. It'd be intellectually dishonest. Go read "The Two State Delusion" by Padraig O'Malley, or the ICC case by South Africa against Israel https://libgen.is/search.php?req=Padraig+O%27Malley&column=author https://libgen.is/search.php?req=Padraig+O%27Malley&column=a... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa%27s_genocide_case_against_Israel# https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa%27s_genocide_case...
