You keep saying that which is ironically quite a childish position.

"Stop bombing children" "stop bombing children"

completely oblivious to the complexity of the situation

Murdering children is an interesting loaded term, as it implies the intent is to kill the children. It isn't, so grow up. Children die because hamas hides among them.

*Israel kills them

So if you want to blame anyone, blame hamas. If you have a better suggestion for how to kill hamas, without collateral damage, or needlessly endangering IDF personal, please feel free to offer it.

Hamas is exploiting the children in our prison colony by also being in the prison with them, that's EVIL, they should simply buy a home somewhere else and move like I did

When a bank robber hides among customer hostages, the correct tactic is to blow up the entire building

Wild how "well of course we have to shoot the hostages" has become the standard talking point.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is clearly suffering from Stockholm syndrome

This has been said before, but the term Stockholm Syndrome comes from a psychologist not understanding why the hostages correctly identified the behavior of the police as needlessly escalating the danger of the hostage situation.

needlessly endangering IDF personal

Hmmm who's safety is more important? Soldiers or children?

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 10 points 11 months ago

Soldiers are expensive!

The typical "if you are homeless, just buy a fuckin house smuglord" arguement

The slightly more common version is "just get a loan and start your own business!" smuglord

"needlessly endangering IDF"

Motherfucker, that's what armies are for! It's so cool how this is such a moral and just fight on the part of the Israelis, but boots on the ground is a non starter.

To be clear, I obviously don't want that, I just find it interesting that any war the US is involved in, is one where they are now using other nations people to be sent to the meat grinder. There has never been honor in war, but they can't even pretend from their planes as they drop more bombs on an open air concentration camp than the US did in iraq

Living in the same place where children are in the general vicinity is hiding among them.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
