    You mean his goals keep changing? Hmm… seems like a constantly changing military objective would allow you to kill an unlimited number of children justifiably based on your reasoning.

      In October, he said he wanted

      1. destruction of Hamas’s military
      2. and governing capabilities;
      3. and returning the hostages home

      Today, he says the Rafah operation is a significant step towards

      1. destroying the remaining military capabilities of Hamas, including the elimination of the four terrorist battalions in Rafah,
      2. and an important step to damage the governmental capabilities of Hamas

      The first two goals look unchanged.

      There is no mention of hostages in my quote. Maybe he isn’t interested in that any more, but it’s entirely possible he mentioned it elsewhere and I didn’t see it.

        destruction of Hamas’s military

        You mean the military that grows every time a child is killed. So this never ends and children never stop being killed.

          No, Hamas forces are steadily getting smaller. If there are new recruits, they are not enough to make up for the losses.

              Your link:

              Hamas may have lost half its battalion commanders by December, while half its battalions had been broken down as well.

              The article suggests that they can recruit in the future, and maybe they can. Or maybe Palestinian militants will join a different organization, as I suggested.

              But for now, Hamas is definitely smaller than they were in October.

                You either did not read the whole article or are dishonestly taking that line out of context.

                But for now, they are smaller than they were in October.

                This is also dishonest because we are not talking about “for now,” we are talking about how this war will end, if it ever does.

                You clearly have an honesty problem and I don’t see why I should continue this discussion further.

                  You said the Hamas military is growing. It isn’t.

                  You showed me an article that speculates about how it might grow in the future, but that doesn’t mean it’s growing now. It doesn’t even mean it will grow in the future. It’s just speculation.

                  As for how this war will end: I don’t know and neither do you. You seem to think that Israel will kill 100% of Palestinian children but I don’t believe that will happen.

                    Which is what we are obviously talking about when talking about reaching a military objective.

                    I am tired of your blatant dishonesty. This has all been about justifying Israeli genocide and I wish you had just been honest about that from the start.

                    Goodbye.
