Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

  • I didn't ask which territory is being annexed.

  • I didn't ask about this particular ceasefire for this particular conflict which started Oct 7.

  • I didn't ask about Israel gaining or losing international support.

  • I didn't ask about the "illusion of civilized society" breaking

Original question, since we're dodging as per usual: Is the tactic by instigating attacks leading to better outcomes overall for Palestinian people?

It's been 100 years of Hamas (and other factions) instigating attacks and each time Israel retaliates with disproportionate violence. 30,000+ Palestinians are dead now. Is the condition in Gaza now:

[ _ ] Significantly better

[ _ ] About the same

[ _ ] Significantly worse

Depends which time you are comparing to. FYI israel colonized Gaza at one point and then people fought back and drove them out.
