    I bet Israel thinks that they’ve exercised restraint here because they waited a little bit to break the ceasefire that we all knew they would break.

    Literally every standing structure is destroyed.

    Either Hamas is the most battle hardened infantry to ever take the field and never giving an inch despite being armed with scraps vs a US armed foe with air dominance, or Israel is carpet bombing civilians.

    They’re pretending it’s to save the hostages again? Negotiations is the only tactic that has saved hostages in any realistic sence. They are returning to the strategy wherein they themselves have killed more hostages then they ever been close to saving. This is about the slaughtering of Palestinas, nothing else.

    It is almost like they don’t actually want peace and the ceasefire is just a way to plan their next attacks.

    The Israeli military said on Telegram that it was conducting “extensive strikes on terror targets” belonging to Hamas.

    (Emphasis mine)

    Note they didn’t say strikes on terrorists. On terror targets. Did the mask just slip a little?

        Umm, I don’t believe it has been until rather recently, if you look at it. Besides, I’m just saying maybe, just maybe, they choose this particular lingo precisely because that’s the way it sounds “out of context.”

        However, there’s no way of really knowing what goes on in the minds of literal mass murderers (and whether Zionist consider these murders justified or not is actually irrelevant). In fact, I probably do not want to know. The defining characteristic of sociopathic behavior is the complete absence of empathy. They learn to pretend real well, sure, but a true sociopath just does not experience it. I don’t want to understand how that happens, because I am not willing to risk experiencing it myself. Cause how do you return from that? Like, …ever?

        Targets of terror. Like, literally by the genociders’ own words. And I’m not even twisting their meaning.

    Sadly, we’re going to see Israel unchained under Trump. The Biden administration would have been on the phone first thing, pressuring them to ease up. The Trump administration will be on the phone taking orders for missiles.

    This is a complex situation and there’s plenty of fault to pass around to all the major geopolitical players involved, but Trump is going to simplify this into “Israel good” “Palestine die.”

      pressuring them to ease up.

      Sure did Palestine a lot of good with that pressure.

      More seriously, Biden never seriously pressured Israel to do (or not do) anything; it’s always been pretty please with that genocidal fart, and pretty please never worked with Israel.

      Tue Biden administranion went onto the phone after each Israeli massacre, reassuring them that they have the full suppprt of the US, but that they need to pretend a bit otherwise, so the public outrage in the US isnt too bad.

        The Biden administration, and pretty much every US administration’s stance on the Israel-Palestine issue leaves a lot to be desired. But Trump is absolutely going to drop the bar and lots of Palestinians are going to pay the price for that.

        As bad as things were under Biden, that administration always wanted to avoid high body counts. The Trump administration will look at high body counts and then attaboy Bibi.

        Roughly 50,000 Gazans died during the last phase of the war. That is an absolute tragedy, but the Trump administration could see that number grow by multiples and they’ll probably view it as a good thing.

        We traded a wolf for a rabid lion and that is going to have consequences.

            Nah, it’s a situation where if forced to choose between 5 people dying and 25 people dying, I’ll go with 5. Obviously, I would rather no one die, but that’s not one of the choices.

            And in this case, Americans literally did choose, electing a man who will not flinch at greatly increased deaths.

                We had two: Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.

                This is a fact as plain as the world is round. What are you even trying to do?

                  No you had more but you are ignoring them. Also you could have do everything that people are doing right now under trump.
