That’s a lot of hedging and you know they didn’t actually carry 1400 people, there’s video of maybe a half dozen and similarly the Palestinian death toll by all accounts is over 10000 today half of which are children because 90% of the population of Gaza is 18 or younger.
I have nothing to gain nor to lose whatever the result of this conflict is: but Isralis have higher moral ground just because they haven’t asserted “Kill all palestinians” as their primal goal.
Also I don’t see what will change now if they stop offensive, from their perspective? Hamas is still there. Literally nothing has changed, except those 10 000 deaths (according to Hamas)
No, they don’t want to “kill all Palestinians”, but they do want to “regularly mow the grass”.
And let’s not forget all the journalists they’ve assassinated, or how they sell weapons grade hacking technology to oppressive regimes (NSO’s Pegasus was involved in the killing of Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi Arabia).
No worries. I do want to add one thing though, related to:
Isralis have higher moral ground just because they haven’t asserted “Kill all palestinians” as their primal goal.
I think it’s more accurate to say that Israel is often perceived to have the higher moral ground. Israel is generally much better at creating positive public image, particularly in the international community. However that image is now wearing thin.
But after what happened the 7th October, I don’t see what you expect Israelis to do? Just send good vibes & prayers to victims families? They absolutely need to destroy Hamas, as counting on their political decay is not an option

It’s not like it’s a pattern or practice typical of both sides.

Blocked you.
Oh however will I recover.
And let me guess - all Palestinians asserted “kill all Israelis” as their primary goal?
All of Hamas did (and Hamas enjoy a pretty large population support)
We can finger point all day, but let’s at least not pretend people close to Netanyahu haven’t called for the “termination” of Gaza and its people. If all Palestinians are responsible for the actions of Hamas, so are all Israelites responsible for the actions of the IDF (sounds kind of asinine doesn’t it?)
It certainly does indeed.

By who’s account ya fuck?
by their own. Ya fuck.
