    Hamas wants to get Palestinian’s killed by Israel, that’s their goal. They want their own people to die so Israel looks bad and maybe Hamas can get Saudi Arabia to attack.

    That’s worse than what the allies did.

      Hamas wants hostages to do a hostage swap for Palestinians that Israel is holding hostage in their prisons.

      This is true of any organisation fighting a nation state.

      The IRA did hostage swaps with the British government and this was one of the reasons there is peace in northern Ireland.

        Just anti terrorist.

        And Hamas demanded a 4 day caesefire as part of the hostage swaps, and only offered a small number of hostages.

        And I have Israeli friends who had to live under Hamas rocket fire.

          So your issue is that Israel couldn’t negotiate better or at all?

          And I have Palestinian friends that have lost tens of family members.

            What’s there to negotiate, one side won’t give up hostages without a ceasefire that will greatly strengthen them.

            Then why do you seem to support Hamas? Hamas is a cancer to Palestine.

            Get rid of Hamas and Nethenyu, then maybe the sides can actually go about negotiating peace.

            But here on Lemmy so many of you just scream only Israel bad, Hamas are “good freedom fighters” despite Hamas literally stating they want Israel to kill Palestinians. It’s fucking exhausting the shit you people spout.

              So no ceasefire till every Palestinian is dead? IOF has a 99% civilian casualty ratio, to take out Hamas fully the civilian death toll would be massive.

              A cancer is something that spreads and kills the host. Oh I’ve just described isaerl, funny that.

              Resistance to oppression is always justified. You can critically support groups like Hamas because they are the only ones fighting the oppressor. If the UN was actually stopping Israel I wouldn’t need to vocally support the next best thing.

                Hamas has come out and said they use tactics that put civilians in the line of fire intentionally. So no, I cannot support the disgusting terrorist group Hamas.

                And it’s fucking appalling that you can.

                  My friend, the IOF policy to drop bombs and white phosphorus over densely populated areas (a war crime btw) puts civilians in the line of fire intentionally.

                  Never mind their policy to shoot any IOF soldiers and settlers who are being taken hostage.

                    And if Hamas would stop firing rockets from populated areas those areas wouldn’t be bombed. 9,500 rockets fired at Israel since Oct. 7th, there’s a reason Israel is attacking back.
