    I don’t take anything. Reported by Israel as accurate. How do we know Wassem Hazem was head of Hamas? The West Bank is controlled by the PLO. We’ve been gaslit by Israel for decades. Now, 11 months into a genocide, nothing Israel says is accurate.

        Nothing I said is contradicted by bullet point 2.

    Too bad for Israel that they can’t take out only these Hamas guys instead of flattening the whole fucking region.

      I mean, the IDF can put two rounds in the head of any kid on the street and issue a press release claiming they just bagged Hamas’s Brigadier General. Who is going to argue with them? Al-Jazeera?

      Who was Wassem Hazem? Why was he suspected of being a valid target for assassination? How do we know that’s the guy they actually killed? Shut up. We got him. Mission Accomplished.

        The main weapon that Hamas has against Israel is international opinion. The way Hamas wins the current war is by continuing to operate in heavily populated areas until the civilian death toll from fighting there becomes so large that Israel has to retreat in order to avoid losing US support.

            Is your question about how this lopsided war, with its huge Palestinian civilian casualties and displaced population and destruction of any goodwill Israel had after Oct 7, is worse for Israel than if they had instead surgically taken out Hamas leadership and left civilians alone?

                  I think you have already answered the question actually.

                  How is it bad for Israel?

                  It is bad for Israel because of the

                  destruction of any goodwill Israel had after Oct 7

                  (And I’d add that Israeli citizens and family members of hostages are very upset and frustrated still at the lack of progress in getting the hostages returned. And I’d add how horrible it was when the IDF killed Israeli citizens who were escaped hostages trying to return home. I think one can hold the hostages and their families in the highest regard and with the deepest sympathies, and still understand that there’s something very wrong here.)

                  It is bad for Israel because of the

                  huge … displaced population

                  Having a huge displaced population along your borders is generally not considered a good thing, after all.

                Quick question: do you support the soldiers that gang rape prisoners(as captured in leaked video) at the pow torture camp run by Israel?

                Oh, and before you say it, that is as reported by the Israeli news org Haaretz.

                  We they officially directed to do so by the Israeli government? Did Israeli authorities prosecute them? How is this related to Israeli support then?
