NYT reported on the increased raids in the Jenin refugee camp: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/24/world/middleeast/israel-gaza-war-west-bank-jenin.html

NYT is still a pretty respectable source, plus it floats more pro Israel than Al Jazeera.

This article doesn't specifically say anything about a Christmas day raid though.

Thank you for correcting me, I got confused with how my lemmy app displays links vs links in the post body

~~Al Jazeera isn't even reporting on it. The article OP linked doesn't say anything about Israel attacking anywhere in the West Bank, let alone Bethlehem.~~

~~It just says people in Bethlehem are sad that people in gaza are dying.~~

~~The OP is clearly lying to try to drum up anti Israeli support by putting a blatantly false headline and hyping nobody does any research. Disgusting.~~

Edit: The first article was hidden by the way my lemmy app handles links vs comment bodies and i misunderstood what I was clicking.

~~Jesus what a trash headline. The article says nothing about Israel attacking Bethlehem or anywhere in the West Bank. The article only says people in Bethlehem are sad about what is happening.~~

~~Yes, there is a lot of bad stuff that the Israeli government does, but don't blatantly lie about stuff that doesn't happen like the truth doesn't matter~~.

Honest question, what is Israel supposed to do? Give Hamas concessions? I think history shows that appeasement only emboldens terrorism. Back out now and let Hamas come back with even more local support?

It's a lose/lose. There is no winning for Israel. It seems that either Israel makes itself a pariah in the international community by killing countless innocent Palestinians or it lets terrorists win.

I would love for you or someone to help me see a different way Israel can get back out of this.
