When was the last time Israel’s actions were proportionate? When they bombed that journalist’s house? When they fired missiles at journalists in Lebanon? When they shot Shireen Abu Akleh? When they sold Pegasus to Saudi Arabia so they could target Jamal Khashoggi and his friends and family? When they sunk the USS Liberty?
Shoulda killed just 1400 gazans and parade their corpses in Jérusalem and call it a day, smh
You act like similar things haven’t been done by isrealis in the last month.

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

Need more?
- First video: shame. but yes, need 1399 more to make a “proportionate” answer. EDIT: but body wans’t paraded, not “proportionate” even closely
- Meh, nobody died
- That dude was suspended, hardly an argument
- lol “middleeasteye” really wants to show how Israelis hate palestinians heh? But meh, no one is dead, after rapid reading
- Meh again, cheering for deaths is shameful but doesn’t contribute to more deads
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)
Well yeah, that’s what happens when one side is winning in a war.
They’re not out there to torture and murder civilians indiscriminately. They’re there to eradicate Hamas and the network of terror tunnels they’ve built under their own population.
It was never meant to be proportional retaliation, it was meant to achieve a specific goal.
